Jackie Ashenden lives in Auckland, New Zealand with her husband, the inimitable Dr Jax, two kids and two cats. When she's not torturing alpha males and their stroppy heroines, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis, reading anything she can lay her hands on, posting random crap on her blog, or being forced to go mountain biking with her husband. She writes dark, sexy contemporary romance for St Martin's Press, including the New York Billionaires Club series of novellas. The Billion Dollar Bachelor, The Billion Dollar Bad Boy, and The Billionaire Biker are all due out in 2014.
