Jackie writes 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 and two kids. When she's not torturing alpha males, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis, reading anything she can lay her hands on, wasting time on social media, or forced to mountain biking with her husband. Millie Adams considers herself amix of Anne Shirley (loquacious but charming and willing to break a slate overa boy's head if need be) and Charlotte Doyle (a lady at heart but with thespirit to become a mutineer should the occasion arise). Millie lives in a smallhouse on the edge of the woods, which allows her to escape in the wayshe loves best-in the pages of a book. She loves intense alpha heroes and thewomen who dare to go toe-to-toe with them.
