About the author

Jessica Shaw

24 books2 followers

Born in the Midwest to nomad parents, Jessica spent a great deal of her childhood experiencing new cultures and regions of the western half of the United States. Following in her parents footsteps she has continued to wander the country with her husband and three sons, laying down roots in a new place every few years. These experiences have helped ignite her creativity. The love of books has always been a part of her life and at an early age she found herself jotting down the ideas flowing through her vivid imagination, but it wasn't until recently that she decided to share them with everyone else. Hopefully you'll enjoy reading about her characters' lives as much as she has enjoyed sharing them with you.

Jessica writes romance novels with a little bit of edgy suspense and mystery thrown into the mix. She is a sucker for a happy ending and tries to always have a happy ending to her books, but sometimes the story just takes her down a different route.

She spends her free time traveling and exploring new areas. She has a list of places she wants to visit and is slowly ticking them off one by one. Each move just gives her a whole new list to explore.

She inherited the wanderlust from her very creative parents who were always looking for the next big adventure. She's been fortunate enough to be married to a man who likes new experiences as much as she does.

She is the mother of three wonderful sons and three very cute dogs who provide more than enough entertainment in her life. Lucky for her they all enjoy being a tourist as much as she does.

Check out her books and let her know what you think. Like most writers she loves constructive feedback.

Heed the warning!!

Gravely has so much to look forward to once she graduates. Beauty brains...but life doesn't always work out the way you plan.

Good book

I don't often read Romance style books But I can't say this was exactly romance. The characters rip your heart out but it's all good. Loved it

I really liked this book. The ending is not a cliff hanger which is nice. But I do want to know what happens in the next in the character's lives so will probably purchase the next book at some point. There were some pretty funny scenes that had me laughing out loud which broke up the more serious parts of the book.

Sweet! I really liked this book but I really hope that there is a sequel. Or at least a follow up on some of the characters like Tony and his pals I just felt like there was more to tell.Lots of surprises and love that Rorry doesn't give up on Gracelyn.
