Author Information

Summer Hanford writes gripping epic fantasy, swashbuckling historical romance, and bestselling Pride and Prejudice retellings. She lives in the Finger Lakes Region of New York with her husband and compulsory, deliberately spoiled, cat. The newest addition to their household, an energetic setter-shepherd mix, has been trying, and failing, for six years to gain acceptance from the cat, but is adored by the humans. Since the moment she read her first novel, Summer's passion has always been writing. As a child growing up on a dairy farm, she built castles made of hay and wielded swords made of fence posts. She is also passionate about animals, travel, and organizing her closet. Nothing pleases her more than a row of tops broken down by sleeve length and ordered by color . . . except working on her latest novel with her cat in her lap, her dog lounging on the rug dreaming of squirrels, and a cup of tea at hand. Renata McMann is the pen name of someone who likes to rewrite public domain works. She is coauthor, with Summer Hanford, of several Pride and Prejudice variations, including A Duel in Meryton, Courting Elizabeth, and Their Secret Love.

Lillian is an authentic storyteller at heart; in fact, there's not much she loves more than connecting by telling stories. From fearless warriors to mums next door, Lillian appreciates any opportunity to enter another world and dig into the subtext. She's an experienced, award-winning audiobook narrator with a number of satisfied clients who have noted her remarkable talent to ""bring each quip, and each twist and turn, to life"" and to ""lead listeners to lean in and hold onto her every word.""

Benjamin (""Benny"") Fife began his narration career at the tender age of eight or so when his mother insisted he practice reading aloud to eliminate the insertion of ""umm"" when reading. He went on years later to wow his eighth grade drama class with a dramatic reading from the spoiler scene of The Empire Strikes Back. Benny continued with drama through high school and particularly enjoyed learning the International Phonetic Alphabet and studying various accents and dialects, a hobby that he has held onto throughout his life. When Benny's children were very young, they began a tradition of a nightly read aloud that has included classic titles such as Jane Eyre to lesser well-known gems, like the Hank the Cowdog series. Benny honed his narration chops on his family with everything from Lord of the Rings to Seven Years in Tibet. Benny began narrating audiobooks professionally in 2018 and became a full-time narrator right before Covid hit in 2020. Benny thoroughly enjoys voicing a wide array of genres and styles, including fantasy, classical literature, sci-fi, health, activism, YA literature, visionary fiction, and many more. His versatility as a storyteller resonates with the multitude of accents, ages, and characters to whom he has admirably lent his voice. To date, he has narrated nearly 200 audiobooks and has a career goal to narrate the complete novels of Charles Dickens. He enjoys a good challenge and has bravely conquered words ranging from eicosatetraenoic acid to floccinaucinihilipilification. Benny is best known for his narration of the fourteen-book (and counting) series by Maria Grace, Jane Austen's Dragons.
