Laurel Cremant is a multi-published author who enjoys writing steamy, diverse and seductive romance: paranormal, urban fantasy, contemporary and erotic. She’s a PAN member of the RWA and bestselling author in several sub-genres of romance.
Laurel is dedicated to promoting and advancing diversity in romance within all levels of the industry and within all genres. She is also a firm believer that community and involvement are important factors to achieving that goal. While by night she writes, during the day, Laurel puts her background in Data Science and Analysis to good use as a Senior Data Analyst and manager for a large property management firm, focusing on the banking and accounting side of the business. Collecting and analyzing data is second nature to her. That may explain why all her heroines are so smart and snarky... |
