Biography

Susanna Carr started reading romance when she was ten years old. The first romance she read was Anne Mather's The Arrogant Duke. She says that while the May/December romance doesn't appeal to her these days, she was fascinated by the heroine's journey. She continued reading romances (although they were forbidden in her home and school) because the women in those books pursued and achieve their dreams against all odds.

Carr's light-hearted romances frequently center on the heroine's sensual journey. Makeovers, reinvention and transformations are common themes. Her work is often described as erotic romance, romantic comedy or chick lit.

Jenesi Ash is the pseudonym of romance author Susanna Carr. Under this pen name, she has written erotic short stories for anthologies, magazines and online media. She has also written several novels for women's erotica publishers.
