Erica Orloff is a transplanted New Yorker who now calls South Florida home. She is the author of Spanish Disco (called "hilarious" by Cosmopolitan magazine), Diary of a Blues Goddess and Divas Don't Fake It (both US Weekly Hot Book Picks), and Mafia Chic (all published by Red Dress Ink), as well as The Roofer, published by MIRA Books. She also writes for the Silhouette Bombshell line. In her personal life, she likes to play poker (well) and chess (poorly), tend to her large menagerie of pets, and watch old movies.
