L.S. Murphy lives in the Greater St. Louis area where she watches Cardinals baseball, reads every book she can find and weaves tales for teens and adults. When not doing all of the above, she tends to The Bean (aka her daughter), her husband and a menagerie of pets. Her debut YA novel, REAPER, was published in January 2013 through J. Taylor Publishing. A REASON TO STAY, a short (20k) adult contemporary romance, was released in November 2012 through the Calliope imprint of Musa Publishing. Another short contemporary romance NEIGHBORS was published by Entangled this week. Linda also has a finished sports-themed YA novel EXTRA INNINGS about a girl joining a boys' baseball team, and is currently working on its companion novel.
