Author of the 4-star (Romantic Times) novel Cat Scratch Fever, Out of the Frying Pan, Possesed, Undressed, and in a Mess, and many short stories, SOPHIE MOUETTE is the brainchild of two widely published authors of erotica, romance, and speculative fiction. The two halves of Sophie--Dayle A. Dermatis (aka Andrea Dale) and Teresa Noelle Roberts--met more than two decades ago at a writers' conference. Talking nonstop, they closed down the hotel bar and went somewhere else to keep on talking. Although they've always lived on opposite sides of the country (and for a few years, on opposite sides of the Atlantic), they've remained very close friends, and it was only natural that they should start writing together as well.Visit SophieMouette.com for more information.TERESA NOELLE ROBERTS writes erotic romance and romantic erotica for passionate people who like tales of true love on the spicy side. Also a poet and fantasy writer, she has a particular fondness for paranormal and fantasy tales in which the romantic, the supernatural and of course the erotic mingle. Born in the Finger Lakes region of New York, she now lives in southeastern Massachusetts with her own personal hero and a small clowder of exceedingly large cats. When she's not writing, you might find Teresa working in the vegetable garden...or cooking up a storm...or knitting something bright and colorful...or in the studio practicing belly dance or yoga...or on a beach, regardless of the weather. And if you can't find her at all, well, she has to get ideas for all those sexy stories somewhere. She also has a day job, but it's much too dull to talk about here.Called a "legendary erotica heavy-hitter" (by the über-legendary Violet Blue), ANDREA DALE writes sizzling erotica with a generous dash of romance. Her work--which has been called "poignantly erotic," "heartbreaking," and "exceptional"--has appeared in 20 year's best volumes as well as about 100 other anthologies from Soul's Road Press, Harlequin Spice, and Cleis Press. She finds passion in rock music, clever words, piercing blue eyes, the wind in her hair, and the scent of the ocean. Visit AndreaDaleAuthor.com for more information.
