“Love and friendships are never straightforward; they are a puzzle of emotions and intricacies. The choices made by individuals, driven by their own needs and desires, have the power to either bring two people closer or push them further apart. It’s the conflicting emotions and difficult choices that I enjoy exploring. That’s what’s inspired me to write stories of lives lived and loves loved.”

M. Jacqueline Murray

Meet the Author

Jacqueline gets a kick out of pondering big ideas. At the core of the Maddie and Nate series are two of her favourite biggies:

• The quantum multiverse branches endlessly through superposition, while our consciousness follows just one fixed path.

• A fervent belief that every person is connected to their one true soulmate.

Jacqueline’s breadth of passions results from her curiosity, fearlessness and open mind which fuel her desire to experience new things, explore new places and be constantly learning.

Jacqueline embodies the Renaissance ideal of the multi-faceted intellectual, blending scientific expertise, business acumen, and creative artistry. Her unique career path spans environmental science (as a geochemist and hydrogeologist), medical innovation (bringing cutting-edge devices and diagnostics to market), and strategic marketing (developing compelling narratives for complex biotech and medical products).

With advanced degrees in science and an MBA, Jacquline brings rare insight into both technical complexity and human storytelling. Through her career she honed her ability to translate complex technical concepts into engaging narratives - a skill that now enriches her fiction writing. Her education and experience combined with artistic pursuits in photography and music, fluency in multiple languages, and homes in the USA, Italy, and Canada, gives her writing a distinct depth and global perspective.
