About this author

Jes Young was a copywriter at Random House for eight years before leaving the job she loved to be a full time mom. She holds a BFA in creative writing from Emerson College.

She writes Urban Fantasy and Paranormal romance because, in spite of a complete lack of supporting evidence, Jes still believes in fairy tales, happy endings, and true love.


So … How’s it going? It’s been awhile, huh? I hope you’re doing well. You look fantastic. Oh, what have I been up to? Well … I started dating again (yikes), I got a new job (hooray), and, througha series of serendipitous events, I sold the Princess of Twilight & Dawn series to MP Publishing. I know! I’m very excited too. The first book, which has been renamed The Uncovering, will be out on...

Twice Tempted by Jeaniene Frost
I love this book. That is all.

Lover At Last by J.R. Ward
I wanted to love this book, I really did. It just didn't happen. There are too many characters and subplots and who knows what all else to keep track of. I am about 75% of the way through but I don't think I'll get much further.

Moon Called by Patricia Briggs
I hate it when the first book in a series is this good. It makes me nervous about reading the rest of them.
Jes Young is on page 136 of 288 of Moon Called: Oh, Mercy Thompson, I'm so glad I found you.

“There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.”

Meg Cabot
“And in what fairy tale would John ever be any sane person's idea of Prince Charming anyway? He was the opposite of charming. More like Prince Terrifying.”
Meg Cabot, Abandon

“One day you will kiss a man you can't breathe without, and find that breath is of little consequence.”

Karen Marie Moning
“Dying is overrated. Human sentimentality has twisted it into the ultimate act of love. Biggest load of bullshit in the world. Dying for someone isn't the hard thing. The man that dies escapes. Plain and simple. Game over. End of pain...Try living for someone. Through it all-good, bad, thick, thin, joy, suffering. That's the hard thing.”
