Author A.L Maruga grew up in the big city of Toronto, Canada, reading romance and watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. She always seemed to fall for the villain.

Her love of all things romance and paranormal has stayed with her over the years, and now she devours books at an alarming rate! ​

Drinker of gallons of coffee, a lover of all things chocolate, and a collector of broken souls. You can find her wandering around her small town in Southwestern Ontario with her trusty writing furbaby assistants ‘Daisy and Rayo’ or spending time with her two grown kids and her soul mate.

2022 was her debut as a romance author with her first book, Reign of the Queen a dark enemy to lovers romance. In 2023, she released another four dark romance books, and she’s just getting started.

She writes about demanding, unapologetic, possessive, dark alpha a-holes and the strong women who bring them to their knees.
