Shaye Torrel is an NZ Maori author who has always loved books & writing. Reading was an opportunity to imagine hundreds of different people and places. As a teenager she discovered that by writing she too could create windows into other worlds, letting all the imaginary people out of her brain and onto the paper. But Life happened and her writing was shelved for Someday. After a brush with her mortality, Shaye realised there is no Someday, there's only Today.

Since 2023 she has happily pursued her dream of being an author and sharing her make believe worlds with you all. She loves all things Happily-Ever-After but especially Paranormal and Urban Fantasy Romance.

Shaye lives in the South Island of New Zealand with her partner and their four-legged fur baby.
