Cass Sellars is a certified fraud examiner and criminal justice professional. She leads white-collar criminal, corporate and financial fraud, and theft investigations. Formerly an editor of a small magazine, a creative journalist, and public speaker, she's always been a writer at heart. The Lightning Series represents a first endeavor into the world of romantic fiction.

After life-changing experiences as a victim of corrupt "justice," she felt compelled to write about powerful lesbian characters that have the opportunity to fight for those who have been victims and seek justice where money and politics are not always the only winning assets.

Sellars grew up in the Midwest and in Great Britain, but spent much of her adult life on the East Coast, which she misses dearly, as she currently lives near San Francisco with her wife of five years. She dabbles in interior design, event planning, singing, travel, women's music, and works at being a vital part of the lesbian and creative communities.
