Jaye Roycraft
Jaye Roycraft, wasn't sure what she wanted to be when she grew up. A teacher? Not for long. A salesclerk? Not again! A computer systems analyst? Better! But that career, as good as it was, was a victim of a mid-life crisis. The answer? Start two new careers after the age of forty.
Jaye became a big-city police officer at forty-one, shocking friends and family. But as challenging as that job was, something was missing in her life.
Throughout her various careers, one thing remained a constant - Jaye's love of books. Classics, mysteries, non- fiction- all had their time. Two genres stood out, though, science fiction and romance. When Jaye started her writing career, it seemed natural to combine her two favorites and write a futuristic romance. The result was Rainscape, her debut novel. Her first contemporary vampire romance, Double Image, is due out in July. Jaye is also the author of a romantic suspense, Aces, and has additional works in progress. So far, all Jaye's novels have cops or ex-cops as heroes or heroines. As satisfying as writing has become, she can't forget about her other career.
Jaye belongs to RWA and WisRWA. She is still a police officer, and lives in Wisconsin with her two dogs and two cats, half of which were rescued on the Job.
