Author bio
Jocelynn Drake grew up in Kentucky and spent years balancing a day job in finance with the stories running in the back of her mind. Before novels took over, she was writing market and investment analysis, which helps explain why even her wildest books tend to move with purpose.
Writing was never far away.
She has said that Wall Street and fiction were both passions, and the world of Nightwalker was taking shape for a couple of years before it became her first published novel in 2008. That first book launched the Dark Days series and introduced the mix that still feels very Drake, danger, momentum, sharp banter, and characters who have to fight hard for any kind of peace.
From there, she kept widening the map. Angel's Ink moved into a grittier urban fantasy lane with tattoo magic and hidden supernatural politics. Claiming Marcus leaned into paranormal romance and family tension. Steal the Wind opened up an epic fantasy world full of princes, gods, betrayal, and long-buried truths.
She likes range.
Readers who come to Drake for one shelf often end up wandering into another. Someone might start with vampires in Nightwalker, then wind up with mercenaries in Charlie's Doctor, dragons in Origin, or a sweeter, lower-stakes romance like The Bargain. Even when the settings change, the pull is familiar. She likes capable people under pressure, found family, messy loyalties, and love that shows up right when life is least convenient.
A big part of her career has also been collaboration. In 2015, she started writing with Rinda Elliott, and together they built connected series such as Unbreakable Bonds, Ward Security, Pineapple Grove, and The Weavers Circle. In 2020, she added another partnership with AJ Sherwood, which led to the dragon-heavy Scales 'N' Spells and Wings 'N' Wands books.
That collaborative stretch says a lot about her work.
Her series often feel built for readers who enjoy spending time with a recurring cast, watching one couple hand the story off to the next, and seeing a shared world get bigger with every book. Assassins turn into found family. Vampires bicker like brothers. Dragons are overprotective, magical, and usually one bad decision away from total chaos.
On her site, Drake describes herself as a former Kentucky girl who has moved all over the United States with her husband and now lives near the Rockies. When she is not writing, she talks about books, video games, travel, tattoos, fast cars, and walks with her dog Ace.
That mix suits the fiction. There is a practical streak in it, but also a lot of fun. One shelf holds warlocks and vampire hunters. Another has billionaires, bodyguards, and holiday novellas. Somehow it still feels like the same writer every time, someone who likes motion, emotional payoff, and a little chaos along the way.
