Rachelle Chase is an award-winning erotic romance author, speaker, business consultant for Fortune 500 companies, and model.

Her first single title book, SEX LOUNGE, was released by Kensington Aphrodisia in May 2007, with SIN CLUB, her first single author anthology, soon following December 2007, also by Kensington Aphrodisia. She contributed a short-short story, “Romance for One” in the February 2007, DREAMS & DESIRES charity anthology, which benefited a women’s shelter in Florida. Her first completed and published work, “Out of Control,” a novella in SECRETS VOLUME 13, came out in July 2005.

An excerpt from “Out of Control” was included in ON WRITING ROMANCE, by Leigh Michaels, to illustrate how to effectively heighten sexual tension in a romance book.

As a speaker, Rachelle’s upcoming presentations include Making the Mundane Erotic (online at From the Heart Romance Writers), Aggressive Promotion for Penny Pinchers with Brenda Novak at RWA National (July 2007) and How to Get Published by Accident (SV-RWA).

Rachelle also hosts “Chatting with Chase,” a live talk show featuring interviews with best-selling romance and erotica writers, co-hosts the annual “Chase the Dream” contest for writers with author Leigh Michaels, and just launched the online SEX LOUNGE Finding Derek CONTEST, which seeks the real-life, red-blooded American version of Derek Mitchell, the hero of SEX LOUNGE.
