Kate J. Squires (@blondeanddangerous on Wattpad) is a self-proclaimed wordsmith, which is totally a real thing. A proud Australian, her job history has included working for Disney, fire dancing, and teaching financial skills—which was hilarious, as she was flat broke at the time. Her life achievements include meeting Hugh Jackman once, marrying a dolphin trainer, and raising two extraordinary little boys. Kate spends her days penning captivating tales for her readers and teaching hot yoga—though generally not at the same time, as this is quite hard on the wrists. Find her on Twitter and Facebook as @KateJSquires.
