25. Night-shift life. Girl Dad. I write dark romance about the kind of forbidden love that starts wars and ends empires. My worlds are ruled by syndicates, secrets, and lovers who should walk away—but never do. Enter The Devil’s Daughter series.

What started off as my wife reading me one of her books aloud, quickly sparked something deep inside of me. I had fallen in love with the world that was created by the author of the book she was reading. I thought to myself, I wonder how hard it is to create a world that a reader could get so lost and tangled in. That was in 2023, and here we are in 2026 with three books self published. It’s my passion creating characters and worlds so dense that no protagonist can be labeled as merely “good” or “bad”. Real life isn’t that way, so why would my books be?

When I’m not developing characters and stories, I’m learning how to be a dad to my 8 month old daughter. My biggest goal in life is to become someone she is proud of.
