Danielle Rose Russell was born in Pequannock, New Jersey, USA, to parents Rosemary Rado and Walter Russell. When she was ten, a friend of her mother's had suggested to Rosemary that Danielle should pursue modeling. Her mother was hesitant at the idea, but sent pictures out online anyway. Not thinking anything would come out of it, Danielle received many calls from agents and managers asking for interviews. By age twelve, Danielle had booked several commercials and print jobs, but eventually fell in love with film acting, and knew it was something she wanted to pursue for the rest of her own life. At age thirteen, Danielle booked her first feature film, A Walk Among the Tombstones, opposite actors Liam Neeson and Dan Stevens. A few months later, she flew out to Hawaii to pursue a Cameron Crowe film, with co-stars Rachel McAdams, Emma Stone, and Bradley Cooper. She continues to work and wants to continue her pursuit in acting in the future.
“Crave,” is told from the point of view of 17-year-old Grace. Grace is forced to move from California to Alaska to attend the Katmere Academy boarding school after her parents are tragically killed. Grace’s uncle is the headmaster of Katmere and her cousin Macy is a student. Grace soon finds out that the school is designed for supernatural students. Not only does she discover that her cousin is a witch, but her relationship with the mysterious and very attractive Jaxon Vega leads her to discover that she’s fallen hard for a vampire, who is convinced that she is his mate and that the two have an unbreakable bond. “Crush,” begins with Grace waking up from a long slumber. Grace doesn’t remember some recent events prior to her waking up – all she recalls is throwing herself in front of Jaxon to save him from Hudson. Grace’s life quickly evolves from complicated to insane when she learns that she is a gargoyle and the first of her kind to be born for generations. Grace has to juggle exploring her new powers and identity, a steamy romantic relationship with Jaxon, and compete for a place on the supernatural court as the only gargoyle. As if things couldn’t get any more complicated, it is revealed that the spirit of Jaxon’s older brother, Hudson, has been trapped with Grace for the past few months while she was stone, creating memories that she can’t remember no matter how hard she tries.
