My bestie. My best friend is 100 percent the voice of reason in my life. I tend to be melodramatic and hot tempered; my bestie is the only one in the world who can make me see the forest for the trees. She is the best time ever, and is actually from Kentucky, so has all the Southern sass anyone could want. She’s an amazing mom, supergenerous, and never, ever gets fed up with me and the million and one questions I have about everything, all day long. I love her to bits and pieces and when my life went haywire, hers did simultaneously, and I don’t think either of us would have come out on the other side without the other.
Finally, he who shall not be named. If my life hadn’t ended up dismantled and upside down, I never would have been forced to figure out a new game plan. I never would have forced myself to do something just for me, to challenge myself to prove I could. I win.
I do want to thank all of you bloggers, tweeters, Facebook followers, and anyone who took a second to email or share my work with a friend. I learned fast how important you all are to this process, and how your embracing what a writer puts out there can impact the success of a story. Thank you for sharing the love, and please keep reading on. It means the world to me and each of you has played a significant part in my figuring out the next phase of my life! Thank you from the bottom of my tattooed heart.
Can’t get enough of the Marked Men?
Good news, there’s much more to come . . .
Up next
ROME
On sale January 2014
Cora Lewis is a whole lot of fun, and she knows how to keep her tattooed bad boy friends in line. But all that flash and sass hide the fact that she’s never gotten over the way her first love broke her heart. Now she has a plan to make sure that never happens again: She’s only going to fall in love with someone perfect.
Rome Archer is as far from perfect as a man can be. He’s stubborn and rigid, he’s bossy and has come back from his final tour of duty fundamentally broken. Rome’s used to filling a role: big brother, doting son, super soldier; and now none of these fit anymore. Now he’s just a man trying to figure out what to do with the rest of his life while keeping the demons of war and loss at bay. He would have been glad to suffer it alone, until Cora comes sweeping into his life and becomes the only color on his bleak horizon.
Perfect isn’t in the cards for these two, but imperfect might just last forever . . .
About Me
First off, I’m a chick. I wouldn’t think I needed that in the “About Me,” but after some of the emails I’ve received I figured it was good to let folks know that Jay is short for Jennifer.
I’m a native Coloradoan, and if you live here you know why that is a source of pride. I love all the things Colorado has to offer and that is why I choose to set my books in this familiar setting. I try to write about things I know and am familiar with, which is why my stories feature plenty of rock and roll and body modification.
I’ve been in the bar industry since I was in college and I spend more than forty hours a week watching the interactions between men and women in a unique way. I think my nine-to-five job offers me valuable insights into how relationships start and evolve in a social setting. I love it.
I like to write New Adult novels because I remember being in my early twenties and thinking I had it all figured out, only to be proven wrong time and time again. When I look back, those were the years that defined who I am today, and good or bad, those decisions ultimately set me on my current path, and that’s what I like to explore in my writing.
Wanna talk at me? Feel free to touch base with me at any of the following locations. I do like to hear from readers. Feedback has been an important part of this entire process for me:
