LJ MiRae was born in South Korea and adopted by a lovely family in Minnesota. Despite being criticized for using poor grammar as a child, she turned to creative writing as a way to pass time during the pandemic. The characters in this book are not related to her directly but should be easily recognizable to her readers as people in their lives. When she's not writing, she spends quality time with family in greater Los Angeles. Love in the Fourth Degree is her first novel.
