When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer? When I was a child. I had always made up games and stories for my friends and me.

What would you say is your interesting writing quirk? I like to write with a T.V show on in the background.
How do your books get published? Through Paper Gold Publishing
Where do you get your information or ideas for your books? Inspiration comes at all different times and through any situation. I do use google a lot for information but another way I get my information is by asking people. I ask people questions about how they feel in situations that had left them heartbroken and what not. I use their answers as feedback to create more realistic characters.
When did you write your first book and how old were you? I was about 29 so almost ten years ago. It was the beginning of a paranormal romance that I’ve always wanted to write. However, I shelved it until I finish writing my current book.

What does your family think of your writing? They like my writing. They are proud of my accomplishments.
What was one of the most surprising things you learned in creating your books? Weirdly enough, organization. My thoughts were once all over the place not I am able to keep them in line.
How many books have you written? Which is your favorite? About five. One of my favorites is part of a paranormal series. She’s young, shy and an extremely insecure human. He’s a five-hundred-year-old, billionaire lycan. They become stranded on an island together. Just the two of them. Humans though are forbidden and she’s far to young anyway.
Do you have any suggestions to help me become a better writer? If so, what are they? Read, write and repeat. Also, listen to people’s feedback. Critics are everywhere and can be used to improve writing. Don’t become offended just listen.
Do you hear from your readers much? What kinds of things do they say? I’m new so I don’t hear from them as much as I would like.
Do you like to create books for adults? Yes, I write for a mature audience.
What do you think makes a good story? Relatable characters, mystery, and a good plot. I personally love a forbidden romance.
As a child, what did you want to do when you grew up? Aside from wanting to be a writer I also want to be a businesswoman.
Any books in the works? Yes. I am working on another romance novel. She lost her memory for the past three years. She wakes in the hospital with heartthrob, famous fiancé and a brand-new baby

Forbidden love – Yes Please! A must-read!
Angela Gray captured my attention from the first page. One question kept going through my mind as I read the book – What happened to Jolie? Angela provides enough hints to that question to keep the pages turning.
Love the word choices and how distinct the voices are for both characters. I also find Jolie very easy to relate to and rooting for her to get better and hoping she will follow her dreams.
The friction at the start of the relationship has me sitting at the edge of my seat hoping to read faster to see how they end up. Love the instant attraction for the forbidden love but being in a motorcycle club, there are no rules so why not?
I enjoy the storyline and how it progresses at the right speed. Definitely a book worth reading over and over again.
