USA TODAY bestselling author Joanne Rock credits her decision to write romance to a book she picked up during a flight delay that engrossed her so thoroughly, she didn't mind at all when her flight was delayed two more times. Giving her readers the chance to escape into another world has motivated her to write over one hundred books for a variety of Harlequin series.
J. Margot Critch graduated from Memorial University with a BA in Religious Studies and Folklore.
She currently lives in St. John's, Newfoundland, with her own romance hero, Brian, and their little fur buddies. A self-professed Parrothead, when she isn't writing steamy contemporary romance and romantic suspense, she spends her time listening to Jimmy Buffett music and watching the ocean, all the while trying to decide if it's too early to make margaritas.
Joss loves books, coffee and traveling-especially to the wild places of Southern Africa and, well, anywhere.
She's a wife and a mom to two young adults. She's also a servant to two cats and a dog the size of a small cow. After a career in local economic development and business, Joss writes full-time from her home in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
