Jackie Ashenden has been writing fiction since she was eleven years old. Mild mannered fantasy/SF/pseudo-literary writer by day, obsessive romance writer by night, she used to balance her writing with the more serious job of librarianship until a chance meeting with another romance writer prompted her to throw off the shackles of her day job and devote herself to the true love of her heart — writing romance. She particularly likes to write dark, emotional stories with alpha heroes who’ve just got the world to their liking only to have it blown wide apart by their kick-ass heroines.
She lives in Auckland, New Zealand with her husband, the
inimitable Dr. Jax, two kids, two cats and two rats. When
she’s not torturing alpha males and their stroppy
heroines, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis,
reading anything she can lay her hands on, posting random
crap on her blog, or being forced to go mountain biking with
her husband.
