Lisa M. Davis is a high school English and writing teacher turned author of young adult novels. She’s a storyteller at heart, weaving tales of redemption, romance, and the fine line between heroes and villains.

Originally from Maryland, Lisa was raised in the mountains of Colorado. As an adult, she moved to California, then Germany, then Michigan, and back to Maryland again, where she settled on the Chesapeake Bay with her husband, her kids, and various animals. When she isn’t writing, she’s hiking, kayaking, or building gardens full of hidden worlds and magic.

Up next: A Single Thread of Light, her YA contemporary fantasy debut.
