Biography

Palessa is the author of the Baxter Family Saga series as well as other stories.
Her very first published book (aka author's trial by fire) is the interracial romance Unchained Hearts (Baxter Family Saga Book 1) . This crazy soap opera in a book is two love stories in one that opens the door to the life, love, tragedy, and legacy of the Baxters, a powerful, influential South Florida family.

Jamaica-born, Miami-raised, Palessa currently lives and writes in the mountains of western Jamaica. In between working on a few other books and marketing projects, she farms, markets, and guffaws at her doggies and chickens and pigs (coming soon).

Check out her blog, AuthorPalessa.com to see what she may be up to these days.
