A longtime culture and music journalist and lifelong music lover, Jacinta Howard lives in Atlanta. For years, she's worked as a writer and editor, mostly covering hip-hop, soul, R&B, entertainment, travel and art. She is the author of New Adult, Women's Fiction, and Contemporary Romance, and a two-time RONE Award nominee. Her stories often explore the intricacies of relationships, healing, and the bumps we experience along the road to real intimacy.

I write relatable stories about love and relationships. I'm super interested in the intimate moments that make a relationship tick, those small moments that define the love shared between a couple.  I'm also interested in broken people, people who have had to overcome a lot to reach a place of peace, and how those experiences impact their relationships with themselves and others. Basically, I'm interested in the "thick of love"—how does that look? How does that ​feel?

As a writer, I'm committed to telling honest stories. In my fiction, my characters have real reactions to situations that may not always be convenient, and sometimes may make you want to throw your book across the room, but that's life, right? That's, people, right? If my book leaves you feeling absolutely nothing, then I haven't done my job. 

Yep, sometimes, my love stories can be a little heavy, and they've been described as "emotional" and "angsty" but the common theme is they're truthful, and love is always, always at the center of every story I write.
