Coming Together: Against the Odds (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781450542876)

Take one part Appalachian redneck, one part aging wet dream, and one part filthy-minded wordsmith. Mix well and serve with chocolate-covered cherries. There you have the one and only Alessia Brio. Alessia writes all colors and flavors of erotica, from heterosexual to ménage to same sex, and from twisted to humorous to deeply touching. (Sometimes, usually by accident, it even qualifies as "Romance.") Her work has earned her critical acclaim in the form of an EPIC Award for Best Erotica (fine flickering hungers), two EPIC Awards for Best Erotica Anthology (Coming Together: Against the Odds & Coming Together: Into the Light), a Next Generation Indie Book Award for Best Erotica (Squeeze Play), and a Romantic Times Top Pick (Coming Together: For the Cure) in addition to a plethora of glowing online reviews. Readers can find her online via Twitter (@Alessia_Brio) or her self-publishing label, Purple Prosaic (purpleprosaic.com) Alessia began writing erotica & poetry at the thriving amateur site, Literotica, where she was also an active participant on its Authors' Hangout forum. It was there she received her nickname "Imp" and met her partner, Will Belegon. These days, Will & Alessia live under the same roof with two cats and three teenagers. They are outnumbered, but they are smarter.: )
