Alessia Brio

Take one part Appalachian redneck, one part wet dream, and one part filthy-minded wordsmith. Mix well and serve with chocolate-covered cherries. There you have the one and only Alessia Brio. Alessia writes all colors and flavors of erotica, from heterosexual to ménage to same sex, and from twisted to humorous to deeply touching. (Sometimes, usually by accident, it even qualifies as romance.) Her work has earned her critical acclaim in the form of an EPPIE for Best Erotica (fine flickering hungers), two Next Generation Indie Book Awards for erotica, and a Romantic Times Top Pick (Coming Together: For the Cure) in addition to a plethora of glowing online reviews.

Ms. Brio began her professional publishing career at Phaze Books. In October 2009, however, she launched her own self-publishing label entitled Purple Prosaic under which to re-release her backlist & publish new work. Readers are encouraged to support their favorite authors by buying directly from publisher websites whenever possible, cutting retailers (who take a big bite of the proceeds) out of the process. For a complete list of Alessia's self-published titles, visit Purple Prosaic.

Although she wears many hats, Alessia is probably best known for her role as editor of the Coming Together anthology series, diverse collections of erotic fiction and poetry to benefit charity.

Alessia is also an award-winning freelance cover artist. Many of her cover designs can be seen on these GLBT Bookshelf pages. A slideshow of her cover creations appears below...
