A candid, sharp-witted memoir about dating, desire, heartbreak, red flags, situation-ships, and the moment I realized I was never waiting for the catch of my life.
BIOGRAPHY Jess Ayala is the author of My Beautiful Mistakes, Tainted Fish, and Never Mind Who She Was.
Through memoir, humor, poetry, and honest reflection, she writes about love, loss, survival, the mistakes we carry, and the beautiful ordinary moments that remind us life is allowed to be good now.
A mother, grandmother, full-time rideshare driver, coffee lover, foodie, baker, and playlist maker, Jess believes an extraordinary life does not have to be expensive, perfect, or carefully filtered. Sometimes extraordinary is simply ordinary, noticed.
Her work does not fit neatly into one genre—and neither does a life fully lived.
She lives. She notices. She writes.
