Alexa Jacobs is a born and raised Maryland girl who is addicted to passport stamps, post-it notes, side characters, and a good cup of tea. Her imagination was always on as a child, and her grandmother quite often warned her that one day her stories would catch up with her. With her first published novel in 2015, that’s exactly what they did. While a reader of everything, her heart loves telling contemporary stories that will make you laugh, make you cry, and remind you to hold on to your best friends. Alexa is currently living her happily ever after with two crazy kids and the prom date who had no idea what he was in for.
