About

Katie Porter is the award-winning alter-ego of RITA-nominated Lorelie Brown. Lorelie is a US Army veteran and true-crime devotee who’s traveled the world from South Korea to Italy and now lives north of Chicago with her family. As a closet history nerd, she is eternally interested in the mystique of Old Hollywood and the shady, shadowy corners of fame.

All five of Katie Porter’s “Vegas Top Guns” contemporary erotic romances received 4½ Stars from RT BookReviews. These books are “impressive and incredibly well done,” and will “move Fifty Shades of Grey to the children’s section.” The third title, HOLD ‘EM , won the 2012 RT Reviewers’ Choice award for Best Ebook Erotic Romance, and the m/m Christmas-themed CAME UPON A MIDNIGHT CLEAR was nominated for Best Book of the Year.

LEAD AND FOLLOW launched a sexy five-part series set in a glitzy New York City burlesque club, described by Publishers Weekly as “deftly leaving readers with the welcome message that life can hand out happy surprises.” Its sequel, CHAINS AND CANES , was deemed by RT as “racy and absolutely flawless!” and also received a 4½ Star TOP PICK.
