When Jennifer isn’t busy dreaming up new adventures for her favorite characters, she is reading, baking, or chasing her twins around the park.

She believes in happy endings, sweet romance, and plenty of intrigue. She writes what she most enjoys reading, so expect lighthearted stories with happy endings and a few laughs.

Born on the beautiful Oregon coast, she traveled all around the world until she finally settled in the Andes Mountains of Ecuador with her husband and two kids.

The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.”
Usually just sitting down and placing my fingers over my keyboard works, but on the rare occasions it doesn't, this is my next favorite quote: “You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.” -- Jack London
Some days inspiration flows and some days it plays hard-to-get, but I make sure I'm always ready (bucket and baseball bat in hand ... because I like to come prepared!).

Living in South America is an adventure and I never want to forget what it was like to experience and adapt to a new culture.
Common writing advice is to write what you know. Well, while I don't have any experience with solving murders (outside of reading other mystery books, thank goodness!), I do know my little part of Ecuador and how the life and the people here have influenced me. I love it and I wanted to share it with readers who might like it too. (less)
