It’s the Daily DNA – Discover a New Author from the QueeRomance Ink site. Today: Sera Trevor MM Comedy, Contemporary, Erotic, Fantasy, Historical, Paranormal Sera Trevor is terminally curious and views the 35 book limit at her local library as a dare.

Her books are populated with dragons, vampire movie stars, shadow people, and internet trolls. (Not in the same book, obviously, although that would be interesting!) Her works have been nominated for several Goodreads M/M Romance Reader’s Choice Awards, including Best Contemporary, Best Fantasy, and Best Debut, for which… Continue Reading Author Spotlight: Sera Trevor
