Susie Dumond is a queer writer originally from Little Rock. Author of Queerly Beloved and Looking for a Sign, she also talks about books as a senior contributor at Book Riot and a bookseller at her local indie bookstore. Dumond lives in Washington, DC, with her spouse, Mickey, and her cat, Maple. When she’s not writing or reading, you can find her baking cupcakes or belting karaoke at the nearest gay bar.
Born and raised in Arizona, Sonora Reyes is the author of The Lesbiana’s Guide to Catholic School and The Luis Ortega Survival Club. They write fiction full of queer and Latinx characters in a variety of genres, with current projects in both kidlit and adult categories. Reyes is also the creator and host of #QPOCChat, a monthly community-building chat for queer writers of color. Reyes lives in a multi-generational family home with a small pack of dogs who run the place. Outside of writing, they love dancing, singing karaoke, and playing with their baby nephew.
In Bed and Breakup, two exes reunite to fix up and sell the bed-and-breakfast that destroyed their marriage—because some dreams, no matter how dusty or broken, deserve a second chance.
The Broposal is a queer romance about lifelong best friends entering a marriage of convenience to avoid the looming shadow of deportation, but neither are prepared for the very real feelings pretending to be in love stirs up.
