Annie Rayburn


Biography

Annie Rayburn is the pen name for Carol Burnside, a romance writer. She is no stranger to the oddities of the writing life. Perhaps it was the hot Texas sun, or the long, lazy days of summer that fueled her vivid imagination. Whatever the muse, she grew up with scenes playing in her head and imaginary playmates taking over the show while she patted out mud cookies dotted with Chinaberries.

The stories she crafts today are decidedly more adult than the ones that involved Ken and Barbie. The scenes still play in her head, the characters argue with her right to craft their very existence, but she’s learned to harness their energies, showing them the way through the sensual haze to a love that will endure.

These days, Annie writes for Red Sage Publishing. Her first release with them is Bittersweet Obsessions, an erotic romance with sci-fi and paranormal elements.

  • The Seduction of Gabriel Stewart on May 09, 2011
    star star star star star
    A few minor nits here and there in the text, but well written. Lots of sexual tension and emotion in this one. My biggest criticism: It should be priced.
  • The Clever Detective on May 09, 2011
    star star star star
    What a fun read! Great tongue-in-cheek humor. A Modern detective thrown into a fairy-tale world with enough romance thrown in to satisfy us HEA fanatics. Great job, Linsey!
  • Forever Love on June 08, 2011
    (no rating)
    A black "demon" cat (or is he?), a native American shaman of indeterminate age, a beloved grandmother, a nurse, a doctor: these are the motley collection of interesting characters you'll find in Forever Love. It's story of love that transcends time in interesting and unusual ways.
  • Seducing the Huntress, A Vampire Romantic Suspense Novella on July 09, 2011

    Not my usual cup of tea, but I really enjoyed this story by Ms. Spear. Seducing the Huntress was an interesting read and a sexy romance with characters I could identify with. Nicely done.
