What You May Want to Know
Hi Everyone, I'm Jessica Carlos. I was born and raised in Southern Texas with my two older brothers, Jacob and Joshua, under my mother and father, Beatrice and Cruz. We grew up playing in the dirt, shooting arrows, and tortilla fishing at the resaca down the street. My family is mostly filled with action lovers, so most of my novels are action/adventure. I am a first-degree black belt in Tendo-Ryu karate and am training for my taekwondo black belt. I enjoy learning kata/poomsae and how to use weapons.
