Bethany Lopez is the prolific indie author of several popular series. Her debut novel, Ta Ta for Now!, was self-published in June of 2011, when, by her own admission, she had absolutely no idea of what she was doing. Eight months later Bethany attended her first SCWC, took everything she learned, and got back to work. In 2012, she published two more books in the Stories about Melissa young adult series, xoxoxo and Ciao, then turned to the burgeoning new adult market and began writing her Friends & Lovers Trilogy. Make it Last and I Choose You were released later that year, with a final installment, Trust in Me, published in 2013. Jumping genres yet again, Bethany’s first YA contemporary fantasy, Nissa: A Contemporary Fairy Tale, was released spring of the same year, followed by an NA romance set in college, Indelible. 8 Weeks, 21 Days, 42 Hours, and 15 Minutes–the first four books in her new Time for Love Series–released in 2014, along with With Love, the fifth installment of the Stories about Melissa series. Her latest is 10 Years.
