Jessica Clare is the contemporary romance pen name of Jill Myles, an American author who has published more than seventy novels across the contemporary romance, paranormal romance, and erotic romance categories under three writing names: Jessica Clare, Jessica Sims, and Jill Myles. Based in Oklahoma, Clare moved from indie publishing into a parallel traditional career with Berkley Romance and other Penguin Random House imprints beginning in the early 2010s. The Jessica Clare name is most identified with the Billionaire Boys Club series, beginning with "Stranded with a Billionaire" (2013) and continuing through eight subsequent volumes, which follows a Manhattan-based secret society of self-made tech and finance billionaires and the women they fall for. The series spawned multiple spin-off lines, including Billionaires and Bridesmaids, Billionaire Boys Club: The Wives, and the more recent Roughneck Billionaires. Her Wyoming Cowboys series — beginning with "The Cowboy's E-Mail Order Bride" (2015) and including "The Bachelor Cowboy", "Last Hope", and roughly a dozen more titles — extends the contemporary-romance formula into small-town ranch settings in Painted Barrel, Wyoming. The Bluebonnet series and the more recent Heart's Cove Hotties round out her contemporary-romance catalog. Under the Jessica Sims name she writes paranormal romance in the Midnight Liaisons shifter-dating-agency universe, including "Beauty Dates the Beast" (2012). Under her real name Jill Myles she has published the Once Upon a Time Travel series and the urban-fantasy Succubus Diaries trilogy. Clare's contemporary work is characterized by humor, low-angst plotting, ensemble casts that recur across multiple books in a series, and a deliberate preference for what readers describe as a comfort-reread tone. She maintains an active Patreon and newsletter and self-publishes most of her current output, with periodic traditional releases through Berkley. Her catalog totals more than seventy novels across the three pen names.
