Cass Hepburn is the pseudonym for the writing partnership of authors JeJe Hepburn and Cass Hill. Between them they’ve run a New York gallery, written and produced for television and short films, and swum with dolphins in the waters of a dormant volcanic crater. One has an MA in creative writing and has won lofty literary fellowships, the other is a CEO with global marketing chops. Both are authors and seasoned travelers, using their adventures for novel settings, boozy catch ups and brewing a concoction of well-researched material. Their shared passion for smutty paranormal romance with victorious villains and a zest for spicy shenanigans, emerged during a writer's retreat in an eerie, haunted resort. Through the fear and the cocktails, Cass Hepburn was born. The Anti-Romantic Romwriter tenaciously clawed her way to her first 'shut up and be happy' ending, amidst a whirl of tipsy revelations. She hasn’t stopped swilling cocktails, stomping the globe in her boots or writing great novels since.
