Jennifer Probst wrote her first book at twelve years old, binding it in a folder, reading it to her classmates, and she hasn't stopped writing since. Holding a master's degree in English Literature, she resides in the beautiful Hudson Valley in upstate New York. Her life is filled with activity, stress, joy, and the eternal struggle with keeping a clean house, courtesy of her family. Her passions include horse racing, Scrabble, rescue dogs, Italian food, and wineโnot necessarily in that order. Jennifer is a New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of sexy and erotic contemporary romance. One of her most notable works, The Marriage Bargain, spent 26 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. Her work has been translated into over a dozen languages, sold over a million copies, and has been recognized globally.
Aside from a successful authorial career, Jennifer's life story reflects a myriad of aspirations and paths including travel agent, yoga teacher, dating coordinator, and insurance salesperson, among others. Despite exploring various careers, writing has always been her constant, leading her to achieve an 'overnight success' two decades in the making. This journey was significantly influenced by her involvement with Romance Writers of America and the supportive community within her local chapter, The Hudson Valley RWA. This community played a critical role in refining her skills and achieving publishable manuscripts.
In her "leisure time," Jennifer enjoys reading, traveling to meet her amazing readers, indulging in reality television, and raising two active boys. A fervent animal lover, she spends time at the local animal shelter and holds her fur babies close to her heart. Her personal life took a romantic turn when she met the love of her life, leading to a relationship that started over sushi and a shared love for books. This relationship underscores her belief that it's not about happy endings but happy beginnings.
