Reviews for Conquering Jazz
Brenda at The Romance Studio gives FIVE Hearts! She says in part: "What a book this turned out to be! This was one of the sweetest storylines I have read. It was literally woven into and through the sexual scenes of the book. The further I read, the more thrilled I became that this was book number one of the series."
"This was my first encounter with Ms. McKenna Jeffries, but I assure you it will not be my last. This book was not just erotic, it was scorching. From the earliest pages to the last word, this work of art was packed with in-depth, detailed sexual incidents. The animalistic events that occurred in this book were seemingly exhaustive yet they were not offensive. The high percentage of sexual encounters in this work did not leave the plot lacking. Far from it. The story was beautiful and the characters were so lovable that it was impossible not to fall for them. The supporting cast was equally as captivating. There was enough interaction that I promise you, too, will be anxiously awaiting the other stories. Her writing style is dynamic and remarkable. I promise you a wonderful read that you will not soon forget."

McKenna Jeffries has loved the written word from time she picked up her first book. Soon she was creating tales of love and family.
Although McKenna used to make up stories never did she even think to put them on paper until after she realized she had to share her stories. Ever since she had been writing stories ever since. Some new idea or story is floating around her head. With the itch in her fingers until she can get a piece of paper to write down the idea McKenna is always busy. She writes because it's a love affair. McKenna tells anyone who will listen and even some that didn't want to listen about her work.
Her collection of books has grown by leaps and bounds throughout the years. Someday her plan when she get her dream home is to have one of those huge libraries put in with the shelves built from floor to ceiling, a fireplace, couches and the works.

An Interview with McKenna Jeffries
By Holly Hewson for The Romance StudioHH: McKenna, thank you for talking with us at TRS! Please tell us about your featured book, Conquering Jazz. MJ: Conquering Jazz is about two friends who come to realize that they want to be more than friends. It takes an unwitting sultry proposition first to get things going. Here is the blurb.
Conquering Jazz Blurb
Jasmine Hamlin unwittingly makes a proposition to her friend Reese Bryant. She tries to recant but he dares her to take a chance to walk on the wild side. Unable to resist the dare and the passion she feels for him she accepts.
Her plan? They play by her rules and the affair will end when they both are fulfilled- as long as she can keep her control they can still be friends. But Reese wants to be more than friends.
His plan? To break her rules even as he fulfills her fantasies and make sure their affair never ends.
HH: Two people start an affair. She wants to keep control when it's over and he wants to be more than friends. Where did the idea for this sizzling story come from? MJ: One day I sat down to write a story I was working on and instead Conquering Jazz came to me. Once I started writing it I was drawn into the characters. Jazz a woman hurt by her past. Reese this strong man who has loves her. They have supportive, meddling friends and families. Besides the romance in Conquering Jazz I enjoyed building the families in there. Whether by blood or by choice there are so many family dynamics to explore.
Jazz and Reese are explosive together but there is more. Reese wants her forever but Jazz wants right now … at least that's what she tries to convince herself. She wants sex but he's after her heart.
HH: What do you like best about Jasmine and how do you think readers will relate to her? MJ: Her strong determination and her fragileness. Jazz is a strong woman and knows what she wants. Yet she is still afraid to go after it. She decides to keep the rules of just sex but her inner self wants more.
HH: What do you like best about Reese and why might he be perfect for her? MJ: His unwavering belief in his love for Jazz and understanding of her. Reese is a strong man and know what he wanted. No matter how Jazz tried to make it seem as if it was only sex he knew it was much more.
HH: What else do you have in store for lucky readers? MJ: Turning the Tables, the next book in the Sultry Nights Series. It features Jermaine Hamlin and Mia Carrington. The love/hate relationship between these two is explosive.
I also have a few things planned but can't give any details yet.
HH: With the growing popularity of ebooks readers like Nook and Kindle, what do you see in the future for ebooks? MJ: There is so much growth since e books started and there is so much more to come. Books and the formats they are released in ever evolving and always growing. I can't even begin to say what I see in the future. I can say I will enjoy every moment of all that is to come.
HH: As an author, has ebook piracy had an impact on you? MJ: Yes it has. Each time one of my books is pirated it affects the sales I make. Piracy affects everyone.
HH: What made you want to become an author in the first place? MJ: I've always been a writer. I used to make up my own fairytales when I was a kid. {Grin} I've been pursuing my writing career for many years. Studying fine tuning my books for publication and working to my goal of becoming a published author.
HH: What is your happiest moment as an author to this point? MJ: Each time I get a letter from a reader concerning my books. It is enlightening to hear what readers think.
HH: Any big plans for the fall? MJ: I plan to enjoy the change of season and look forward to spending sometime with family.
