edit data

Jen Morris writes steamy escapist romance with imperfect heroines and tall, bearded heroes. She believes that almost anything can be fixed with a good laugh, a good book, or a plane ticket to New York.

Her books follow people with big dreams as they navigate life and love in the city. Her characters don’t just find love—they find themselves, too.

Jen lives with her partner and son, in a tiny house on wheels in New Zealand. She spends her days writing, dreaming about New York, and finding space for her ever-growing book collection.

Quotes by Jen Morris (?)

“Forgiveness doesn’t mean condoning what was done. It means letting go of the anger you’re holding about it. Anger can’t change the past, but it sure as hell can hurt you in the present.”
― Jen Morris, The Love You Deserve

“This is my turtle, Donnie.” “Donnie?” Somehow, he looks even more sheepish when he clarifies, “Donatello.”
