About the author

Devyn Quinn lives in the scenic Southwest, though she has called several other states home. She is a huge fan of dark gothic music & shoot-’em-up action movies. But reading is her first love and Devyn spends too much time with history books, as well as feeding her addiction for celebrity biographies. She especially enjoys reading books on Hollywood before the 1960′s and is crazy about Marilyn Monroe, her legend and her myth.

From website:

I started out writing paranormal romance under a few pen names that didn’t get very far in the publishing world. Later on, after years of not writing, I debuted in small press and used the name of Caitlyn McKenna. My first releases were Echoes of Angels (later re-released as The Keeper of Eternity) and Descent of Demons (later re-released as The Price of Eternity). When I began writing erotic romance, I wrote under the name of Jeya Jenson for several epublishers/small presses such as Ellora’s Cave, Extasy Books and others. Later, I was offered a contract by a NY publishing house, and neither pen name was acceptable to the editor. After batting some names around, I became Devyn Quinn. Several of my Jeya Jenson titles also made the jump to print, such as Flesh and the Devil (Kensington Aphrodisia), Before Night Falls (now published as Sins of the Flesh, Kensington Aphrodisia) and Sins of Flesh (now published as Sins of the Night, Kensington Aphrodisia).

At this time I write solely under the name of Devyn Quinn and will continue to do so in

Reviews

[Amy Shannon · Rating 4 out of 5]

dark and thrilling

The story is seductive, and so are the characters. This is a dark and desirable erotic story, filled with images of prostitution, sexual desires and adventures, mixed with supernatural and paranormal. It's quite a journey, with wonderful characters, but they could've had a little more depth to them. The story flowed well, and was simple. It was one of those stories filled with sex and darkness and it made sense. Perfect sense. Thrilling.

[Elizabeth Bennet · Rating 2 out of 5]

This one is more of a supernatural thriller than erotica, well there are erotic scenes but they are few and far between. This is the third novel I've read by the author and I only recommend Sins of The Flesh among them.

[Stacia · Rating 4 out of 5]

This author is terrific at showing you her visions through her words. She is very descriptive and the main characters are powerful. This story was wrapped in a mystery that I couldn't wait to unveil, full of unexpected twists and turns. This was a very gripping goth/paranormal romance. Be warned though, the sex scenes are explicit and very hot.
