Me and Faelan


Hello beautiful human!

I'm Jayelle. It's nice to meet you. For 35 years, I've been writing, learning, and perfecting my craft. My first love was art and design, for which I went to school. My second love was writing. Music stuck it's nose under my tent as well. I love all things creative. 

I am a native of Colorado, and live in the beautiful foothills, seeking romantic inspiration from the mountains and sunsets. I write from my heart and life experiences. 

My greatest happiness is finally finding real love with the man who became my husband. A man who had the patience to let me heal. You'll see pieces of him in all my male leads. He's strong, protective, loving, spiritual, beautiful, a little cranky at times, and my teacher. I love his flaws and his perfections.

Understanding myself and the crazy decisions I made in my past were the motivators for writing Breaking Fancy. I couldn't afford therapy. So, I started writing. It has been the most healing thing I've ever done. 

From there I couldn't stop. Writing obsessed me. Learning everything I could about strong prose, editing, pacing, and publishing became my whole world. After years of experimentation, I've settled on being a novelist and writing coach, and I'm passionate about working with other writers. 

My forte is spicy romance, a genre I never, in a million years, would have thought I'd write. But I find a strength in it that I can't find in more innocent story-telling. I believe intimacy should be revered and respected for the large part of our lives that it is. 

I truly hope you enjoy my work and will check out my services if you are in need of any assistance in writing or publishing. Many blessings on your path!
