The Heart of Winter

Zoey Castile was born in Ecuador and raised in Queens, New York. She started writing in her teens and pursued that love in her studies at Hunter College and the University of Montana. For nearly a decade, she worked as a bartender, hostess, and manager in New York City's nightlife.

Philip Alces primarily narrates erotic romance. Some of his titles are bestsellers in that genre, including several by Natasha Knight and Red Phoenix. Having split his youth between California and England, he now spends much of his time in a cabin in the Great North Woods and enjoys savoring the solitude of the outdoors.
