MARIS BLACK

Bestselling author of The Kage Trilogy,
featured on USA Today Must-Listens

Maris was always an avid reader and enjoyed creative writing from an early age. After earning her Bachelor of Arts in English, she worked as a newspaper reporter before transitioning to the medical field as a Respiratory Therapist. It would be 2015 before she published her first book, Owning Corey, which became an Amazon #1 bestseller in both Gay Fiction and Gay Romance. The Kage Trilogy is her most popular series to date, ranking in the Amazon Top 100. The Kage audiobooks, narrated by JF Harding, were featured on USA Today’s Must-Listens.

In her personal life, Maris is the proud mother of three wonderful children and five irreverent cats. Life in her southern hometown is just as slow and peaceful as one might imagine—the antithesis of her stories.

Maris writes spicy gay romance, and she loves to explore flawed characters and darker themes. Expect unbearable sexual tension, lots of heat and angst, and a thrilling happily ever after.
