Sadie Hepworth is a romance writer and recovering academic, author of He’s Not for Me and Take It From the Top. In her former life, she taught art history to college students, but now she writes steamy LGBTQ+ romances packed with spice and heart. When she’s not sneaking references to pork roll and the Jersey Shore into her manuscripts, she enjoys making playlists of 90s punk, learning how to draw, and shopping after-Halloween sales for more goth décor to put in her home office. She lives in New Jersey with her partner, two daughters, and a whole pile of imaginary friends.
