Rene Lyons has always had a fascination with medieval history and with the paranormal. It seemed only natural her two loves would come together in her writing. Growing up, she was often lost in a book. She began writing science-fiction at the age of ten, but that all changed when she was fifteen and read her first romance novel. From that moment on, she began writing her own Happily Ever Afters.

Along with being a writer and cover artist, Rene is co-owner of Lyrical Press, Inc., a small press publishing house she and her husband have opened. Currently, they are open to submissions.

Rene, her husband Frank and her daughter make their home in New York.
