Carla Laureano could never decide what she wanted to be when she grew up, so she decided to become a novelist-and she must be kinda okay at it because she's won two RWA RITA(R) Awards. When she's not writing, she can be found cooking and trying to read through her TBR shelf, which she estimates will be finished in 2054. She lives in Denver, Colorado, with her husband, two teen sons, and an opinionated cat named Willow.
