well, it sort of is funny, if you think about it. Running away from some
woman because she wants to have sex with you.’

me alone. I mean, can you imagine me trying to actually meet someone with that
constantly turning up all the time? She’d
scare everyone away until there was only her left.’

thought I was teasing him, when I was actually being serious. Best not to think
about that too much, Olivia Jones.

house or halls with a random set of people and it doesn’t matter what you study, you just bond over the
shared experience. I also worked behind the bar at the student union so
everyone knew me without knowing I was this big nerd. And then someone in their

About the Author:
L. E. May is the author of the adult romantic comedy novel, Inspired by Night.She loves reading but was feeling disappointed by a lack of literary heroines that she could relate to so she decided to create her own.
As a website designer and owner of a digital media company, she takes inspiration from the digital and technology industries. Her writing is littered with nerdy references and humour and her leading lady is smart, intelligent and comfortable with who she is.
Being a female entrepreneur in a predominantly male industry, she is passionate about encouraging women and girls to take an interest in technology and wants to show that nerds are cool.
Following graduation from a music industry management degree, she lived in London, working for a number of music companies. She returned home to Liverpool and worked in a variety of jobs from admin to childcare – She even had a short stint as a taxi driver – before she discovered her passion for digital media.
She keeps a regular blog on both her author site and company site, regularly contributing guest posts to other websites.
When she’s not writing or designing websites she spends her spare time playing video games and watching television. She supports Liverpool football club and is never more than ten meters away from a pizza. She lives with her long term boyfriend and their two cats.
