Jessica writes stories with heat and heart about ambitious women and the people who fall in love with them. Her romance obsession began with strong influences from Jane Austen, Meg Cabot, and early 2000’s rom coms. In November 2021, Jessica was selected as a Pitch Wars mentee. Her debut novel, FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY, will release from Berkley/Penguin Random House in 2025.

In addition to writing, Jessica has a passion for music—she’s a mezzo soprano with a BA in Music and a deep love of Broadway. Her spare time is spent watching Star Trek, trying new cookie recipes, playing cozy video games, and exploring the Pacific Northwest, where she lives with her spouse and their magical reindeer herding dogs. She can be found with an iced oat milk latte in hand regardless of the weather.
