Author Talk: Dark Fantasy and Romance with Naima Simone

The Author Series Committee at DPL welcomes bestselling romance and fantasy author Naima Simone. She will be visiting Detroit to share details about the forthcoming second installment in her The Hunted Kingdom trilogy: Ember (Bramble, 2026). This new scorching dark mafia romance sees a modern-day Cinderella fight against the stepbrother who inherited her legacy--but he wants more than just the family empire: he wants her.

About Naima: Published since 2009, USA Today Bestselling author Naima Simone loves writing sizzling romances with heart, a touch of humor, and snark. Her books have been featured in The Washington Post and Entertainment Weekly, and described as balancing “crackling, electric love scenes with exquisitely rendered characters caught in emotional turmoil.”

She is wife to Superman, or his non-Kryptonian, less bulletproof equivalent, and mother to the most awesome kids ever. They all live in perfect, sometimes domestically-challenged bliss in the southern United States.
