Jo Carlisle

When award-winning author and former Golden Heart finalist Jo Carlisle developed a lucrative side business in the third grade writing and illustrating ten-page stories, then charging classmates twenty-five cents each to buy them, she discovered a calling that would last a lifetime. Breathing life into the colorful characters crowding her head and sharing their dark, decadent world with her readers proved a temptation too powerful to resist. Jo’s erotic tales, whether edgy paranormal or realistic contemporary, carry her readers on a fast-paced ride of danger and forbidden passions. Embattled heroes fight for the love of the strong-willed mates who melt their emotional and sexual boundaries and free their souls…even as their enemies circle in for the kill. Jo invites you to leave your troubles behind, step into another world, and lose yourself in wicked pleasure for a while. Drop her a line, she’d love to hear from you. When not penning erotic adventures for your enjoyment, Jo can be found snuggled in a quiet corner with her nose buried in a romance, avoiding loathsome tasks such as laundry and cleaning house. Jo Carlisle lives in Texas with her own dashing hero and two children.
