Bio: Jaye Roycraft has had what can only be called a twisted career path. She's been a school teacher, a computer systems analyst, and, at age 41, became a big city police officer. Jaye spent seven years with the Milwaukeee Police Department, including a stint with the elite Street Crimes Unit. Since then, Jaye has switched careers again and now works in the slightly less dangerous world of commercial insurance. Jaye has been an avid reader of many different genres for years, so when she started writing, it seemed natural to com-bine her favorites. Her debut novel, RAINSCAPE, a science fiction romance, was followed by the Image series, all of which combine vampire romance with mystery and suspense. But whatever the genre, Jaye's favorite characters are sure to be cops or ex-cops.
