Jessica Lauryn

A life-long lover of romance, Jessica took several writing classes in college, and told her professors she was one-day going to write soap-operas. When graduation came, she joined a critique group, and on a whim, decided to “write a romance novel.” Then, on a train ride to her internship in the fashion industry, Jessica finally cracked open her very first romance novel. That hot August morning, she fell head-over-heels for the genre, and has been writing it ever since. Jessica is an author for Siren BookStrand. She writes “Romantic Suspense,” which she describes as being heavier on the romance, and lighter on the suspense—just the way it should be! Jessica is an active member of New Jersey Romance Writers where she has served on the executive board as the Put Your Heart in a Book Contest Chair, Special Events Chair and Hospitality/Critique Chair. She is also a member of the parent chapter, Romance Writers of America. When she’s is not writing, Jessica enjoys shopping for the latest fashions and the prettiest of antiques. Though she resides in Central New Jersey, her heart belongs to the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire.
