About
USA Today Bestselling Author Alyssa Drake has been creating stories since she could hold a crayon, preferring to construct her own bedtime tales instead of reading the titles in her bookshelves. A multi-genre author, Alyssa currently writes a blend of historical romance, paranormal romance, and romantic suspense. She adores strong heroines with quick wit, and often laughs aloud when imagining conversations between her characters.
She believes everyone is motivated by love of someone or something and is always curious to discover what’s hidden beneath the first layer. When she’s not whipping up chocolate treats in the kitchen, Alyssa can be found searching for fairy houses and mermaid eggs.
Featured Work
Never Bet a Duke
Every lady has want of a scandal…unless it results in murder.
To escape her stepmother’s matrimonial plans, Nora sets a risqué wager with Merritt, Duke of Roxburghe; if he can’t find her a suitable match by the year’s end, he must provide her with financial freedom. But if she loses, she must publicly destroy Tabitha Philbert’s reputation...and her own.
Rescued by Nora before the marriage trap could spring, Merritt views their agreement as an opportunity to exact revenge on Tabitha for arranging the deceitful scheme. However, after their bet is discovered, Nora’s intended fiancé—and his scheming sister, Tabitha—set out to ruin Merritt.
When her fiancé is discovered with a knife protruding from his chest, Nora is accused of murder and arrested, and not even Merritt’s powerful influence can save her from the gallows.
