About the Author

Confident, fun, well-rounded and sexy. Those are words that describe author Denise Brienne, a thirty-something woman who has a knack for giving the best advice to those who want to spice up their intimate relationships. But it wasn't always this way. Born in the Midwest and raised in a household that never talked about anything sexual, Denise grew up thinking that anything sensual was best kept hidden. She was curious about many things, but never felt free to ask questions about what she was thinking or feeling. That all changed when she came of age. When she went away to college in a very liberal town, Denise quickly learned that there was a whole other world out there, one where sexual expression was okay and encouraged. Denise knows relationships very well. She's felt both soaring love and a broken heart. She has had smooth, easy relationships that seemed to be effortless, and she had been in situations where she really had to work hard to sustain the union. In the depth of those experiences, she has found what works to sustain and spice up a relationship - and just as importantly, what can lead to a relationship's slow, withering demise. Denise combines her real-life experiences with her passion for writing, and that results in novels that are both helpful and hot! Denise has dozens of novels and ebooks under her saucy leather belt, as well as hundreds of blog posts that showcase her ability to provide the best advice. She is best-known for the wide-ranging "101 Series," in which she pursues everything from getting kinky to romantic gift ideas to what to never, ever do in bed. But sometimes you just want to read something hot. If you are in the mood to ditch the advice and just get your sexy on, check out Denise's erotic short story collections!
