Grendel Press would love to welcome C.A. Jay to our collection with their first book in a series, When A Girl Preys!

C. A. Jay is a dark romance author who likes to add a playful edge to most of her books to break up the persistent darkness. She adds a laugh here and there, so when you find yourself belly laughing in the middle of a serious and maybe questionable scene, that’s why. Jay grew up with a pen in her hand. She started off writing flowery poetry about literal flowers and moved on to angsty poetry in her teen years filled with longing and heartbreak. Finally, in her adult years, she started writing short stories that eventually transformed into novels. She admits that she lives on the dark side of writing, and it’s where she thrives best. She loves to analyze relationships that develop not in spite of, but because of, the darkness characters possess, and how this darkness shapes them, and the way their relationships form.Â
