Tentyrian Legacy (53 page)

In college, Elise specialized in Victorian
literature and well worn copies of Jane Eyre and Emma were never
far from reach. However, teen romance favorites like the Twilight
series also stacked the shelves. In creating Tentyrian Legacy,
Elise sought to write a story for her own enjoyment and one that
combined the elements she appreciates in a good book—romance, an
evil plot that must be foiled, and vampires.

Elise grew up in New Canaan, CT and now lives
in Pound Ridge, NY with her husband Jonathan and son Jack.
