Ileen Martin lives in Miami, Florida, with her husband and son. When she isn’t teaching language arts, she can be found writing in her “zen spots,” salsa dancing, doom-scrolling funny videos, and binging paranormal and mystery romances, both on TV and in books. She is the author of the young adult Nightmare in Elmridge series, which begins with Nightmare Beauty, and Quantum Crush, the first book in her upper young adult series, Dating in the Days of Noah.
