Janis Jakes, Writer

Inspirational romances with feisty heroines and the men who dare to love them.

If you enjoy uplifting stories of resilient and relatable characters who overcome life challenges while fighting for the love of their lives, you're at the right place.

Some characters tame parts of the wild west, while others tame restless hearts. Some are from another era; others are your neighbor or friend. Some stories are clean and wholesome, others are faith-based and inspirational.

The common thread? Happily ever after is only an ending away.
