Jessica Verday is the New York Times bestselling author of The Hollow trilogy, The Beautiful and the Damned, and the Of Monsters and Madness series. Her short stories were featured in The First Time anthology, which she coedited, and Enthralled: Paranormal Diversions. She believes a shoe isn’t a shoe unless it has a three-inch heel, and nothing beats a great pair of boots. When not daydreaming about moving into a library of her own, she can be found working on her next story, redecorating her office, or buying vintage furniture.
