About Leigh

Gay and bisexual men, complicated relationships, and hard-earned happy endings.

Leigh Jarrett writes MM Contemporary Romance about gay and bisexual men finding their way toward each other.

Her stories are drawn to attraction that refuses to stay uncomplicated, relationships that ask something of the people in them, and characters who don’t always make the easiest choices on the way to getting what they want.

Some of Leigh’s stories are warm, romantic, and hopeful. Others are darker, more emotional, or a little rough around the edges. They may explore friends becoming something more, found family, second chances, age gaps, complicated histories, or relationships that don’t fit neatly into anyone else’s expectations.

What matters most is the connection between the characters.

Leigh wants the desire to feel real, the emotional stakes to matter, and the relationship at the heart of the story to feel worth fighting for.

After more than 15 years writing MM Romance, she is still fascinated by the moment attraction becomes something deeper—the point where wanting someone starts to mean risking something.

If that sounds like your kind of romance, there’s plenty waiting for you.

For Writers

After more than 15 years of publishing, I’ve also learned a great deal about the business behind the books—author websites, branding, ebooks, subscriptions, reader growth, pricing, promotions, and the many different ways writers can build a sustainable career.

That experience became The Working Writer, a practical course for authors who want to understand the business side of publishing without allowing it to take over the writing itself.
