About the author
Mickie B. Ashling began writing stories about men who love men around the time she discovered Queer as Folk in 2002. The characters on that show intrigued her, and ground-breaking writers such as Patricia Nell Warren inspired her. She began to write the kind of stories that she enjoyed reading, spurred on by her muse, who really has this thing for hunky men getting it on.
Mickie has lived in different parts of the world but currently resides in a quiet suburb outside Chicago. She's a full-time office manager who dreams of quitting her day job soon so she can devote her time and energy doing what she loves best-writing love stories about gay men searching for that special someone we all deserve.
Writing is her passion, but traveling is a close second. New York City, Barcelona, and San Francisco are favorite cities she returns to as often as possible. Meeting new people, hearing back from readers, and snacking on M & M's are some of her guilty pleasures.
