Autorenporträt
Luckily for all you fans of romantic fiction, Irene Woodbury knows that what happens in Las Vegas doesn't have to stay there. The Denver-based author has captured the heart and soul of Sin City in four darkly funny novels, and two dramatic ones.

Porch Pirate Love (2022), explores the turbulent romance between a brash porch pirate and a sassy single mom-to-be. A Slot Machine Ate My Midlife Crisis (2021), is an up-close-and-personal look at a newlywed's funny midlife crisis in Vegas. In darkly humorous Honeymoon Roulette (2021), a bride goes rogue after learning her handsome fiance may have killed his first two wives. Its companion novella, Annie & Charlotte: The Dead Wives of Connor J. Barrington, was also published in 2021.

On the darker side, the gritty, engrossing Romeo Stalker (2021), chronicles a Vegas showgirl's agonizing plunge into stalker-hell. And Love and Payback (2021) is a probing look at a married woman's mysterious death in Sin City, where she has gone to meet an Internet love.

Irene, a successful travel writer whose favorite destinations are London and Las Vegas, is currently working on another novel. To follow her on Twitter, please visit @IreneWoodbury.
