Tess Maynard has been putting pen to paper since the age of ten. She currently resides in the state of Washington and has been a member of Romance Writers of America and EPIC for the last several years. The first defining love story Tess read back in junior high school was "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte, and that set her on the road to her long standing love affair with the romance genre. Her inspiration in writing often can be found by listening to song lyrics and reading poetry by such poets as Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Edgar Allen Poe, and Ranier Maria Rilke. But finding inspiration for her stories truly has no boundaries for Adrianna. She freely admits she is a romantic by nature and adding an suspenseful air of mystery to her romances is something she loves to do. "She Moves Through the Faire" released by Amber Quill Press in November of 2004 was Tess's first romantic suspense. Writing as Adrianna Dane, her first erotic romance, "Esmerelda's Secret" was released in June of 2004. Tess always looks forward to hearing from her readers and she may be contacted at tess@tessmaynard.com. Find out more about her current releases as well as planned future releases and book signings by checking for updates at her website periodically.
