B.A. Tortuga Books in Order
B.A. Tortuga is a Texan through and through, and her roots are evident in the raw, unapologetic stories she weaves. When not indulging her love for tattoo art, Mexican cuisine, or quality time with her basset hounds, she's crafting tales that capture the essence of her Northeast Texas upbringing. Her writing spans a wide range of genres, from gritty GLBT romance to fiery menages and traditional love stories, defying categorization as she chases the narratives that resonate within her. Raised by the rugged landscape of Northeast Texas, Tortuga now finds herself drawn to the majesty of the Colorado mountains. Her creative process is fueled by her partner, Julia Talbot, her best friend, Sean Michael, and, above all, a rich supply of exceptional coffee.
