Zoey Michaels

Zoey Michaels is a firm believer that the best tales come from seeing the world just a little differently.

When asked, Zoey described her approach to storytelling this way, “There’s a line from a song in Sweet Home Alabama...

Coming out this weekend

Dear Reader,

I hope you will enjoy reading this story as much as I enjoyed writing it. For a long time, I’ve had a soft spot for Escape (The Piña Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes—it’s one of my guilty pleasures.

At first, I wrote this story purely for my own entertainment, but as it came together, I realized I couldn’t just keep it to myself. That’s one of the joys of being an indie author—I get to explore different genres and follow wherever inspiration takes me. Since my mind is always brimming...
