As a late-in-life reader, L.B. discovered a love of books in 2022 and quickly devoured book after book across multiple genres. However, she found herself desperately wanting to read more empowered female characters, so she set off to write her own. Encouraged by her best friend, she wrote her debut novel, In The Shadows. Now she can be found downing copious amounts of black coffee and pretending to be a corporate professional, all while crafting intricate, rich stories with captivating characters that she hopes will pass on her newfound passion for reading.
