Author bio
Brenda K. Davies writes under two names, Brenda K Davies and Erica Stevens, and has built a sprawling world of vampires, demons, fae, and humans that spans adult paranormal romance, young adult fantasy, and historical fiction.
She was born in New York and grew up splitting her time between New York and Massachusetts, attending school in Foxboro before finishing high school in Monticello. Moving back and forth between small towns gave her a love of both quiet forests and busy main streets, settings that often slip into her books.
As a kid she was the one scribbling plays and stories in notebooks, passing them to friends and dreaming up alien invasions and supernatural showdowns. By her teens she was working with harness horses, spending long days at the barn and racetrack while still filling notebooks with ideas.
College never quite stuck. She bounced between majors like science, anthropology, history, English, and teaching, fascinated by almost everything except computers. Eventually she left school and threw herself into a string of hands on jobs, including work as a mental health consultant in a penitentiary and as a trainer and groom for Standardbred racehorses.
Landscaping turned into her main career for about a decade. During those years she wrote in the early hours, often getting up around two in the morning to draft scenes before heading out to move dirt, plant trees, and build stone walls. After years of rejections, she decided to self publish in 2012 and never looked back.
Her first big successes came under the Erica Stevens name with series like Captured and Kindred, where human rebels, vampire hunters, and alien invaders collide with intense romance and high stakes survival. At the same time she launched Awakened and the rest of the Vampire Awakenings books as Brenda K Davies, following the Byrne family of vampires and their human and immortal mates.
From there the world kept expanding. The Alliance novels dig into the uneasy truce between vampires and hunters. The Road to Hell and Hell on Earth series follow River, Kobal, and later a new generation as gateways to Hell rip open and demons become unlikely allies. In The Shadow Realms and Tempest of Shadows she leans into epic fantasy, sending readers through dark fae courts, cursed realms, and dragon filled skies.
She also writes beyond the paranormal. A Stolen Heart is a gritty historical romance set in 1890s Kansas, and The Girl Behind the Gates tells a harrowing, true story inspired novel about a young woman locked away in a psychiatric hospital and the doctor who helps her reclaim her life.
Across all of these stories, certain threads repeat. Her characters wrestle with trauma, loyalty, and the question of what makes someone a monster. Soulmate style bonds, tight knit found families, and fast paced battles sit alongside quiet moments of humor, domestic chaos, and hard won trust.
She now writes full time from Massachusetts, sharing her life with her husband, their son, and a collection of animals that includes at least one very opinionated horse. When she is not drafting the next book, she is likely reading, watching anything paranormal, tending a garden, or spending time in the barn, still happiest when she can work with her hands as well as her imagination.
