Tawny Taylor is an American author of erotic novels and paranormal romance; many of her over 50 books include strong erotic elements. She also writes under the pseudonyms Tami Dane, Sydney Allen, and Sydney Laine Allen.[1][2]

Taylor's works include the "Immortal Secrets" series; "My Alpha Billionaire" about BDSM relationships; the "Masters of Desire" series which includes elements of the paranormal; and several stand-alone novels.[1] Her "Sloan Skye" series is written under the name Tami Dane.[1]

Reception

[edit]

In a 2011 review of Blood of Eden, Publishers Weekly said that Taylor writing as Tami Dane "rejects the usual paranormal tropes without establishing any new ones", describing the story as "a crowded canvas that never achieves high adrenaline or page-turning tension".[2] Publishers Weekly found Blood of Dawn, the third novel in the series, "moderately entertaining" thanks to "a sympathetic lead and a handful of spirited supporting characters".[3]
