I'm Lani, coffee addict, chocolate connoisseur and romance author. I'm also known as Wendy Vella, and I'm a USA Today bestselling author of historical romances, a fact which still makes my head spin! ​I live waaaay down at the bottom of the globe on an island filled with beautiful scenery, lakes, and close-knit communities. My home has inspired me to write these stories of idyllic small towns, and the quirky but wonderful people who make up their communities. I'm a sucker for an alpha hero with a heart of gold, who works HARD to deserve the women he falls in love with. Come join me, and let's escape to these crazy small towns together xx
