Ava Gray has been a clown, a clerk, a savior of stray kittens, and a voice actress, not necessarily in that order. She grew up in a yellow house across from a cornfield, but now she lives in a terra-cotta adobe house with her husband and two adorable children who generally do as they are told. In this guise, she writes high-octane paranormal romances; she also writes romantic science fiction and urban fantasy as Ann Aguirre.
