Miami bred, Bella Jay (born Precious Rodgers) has had a love for books since she was a little girl. Getting lost in them was a favorite past time but writing them has become a true love. In 2018, with a little push she stepped out on faith and released her first novel to the world allowing her writer alter ego, Bella Jay, to take flight into the writing industry.

She writes spicy & contemporary Black romance books with unapologetically flawed characters who she loves to fix.

When she’s not wrapped up in her characters, she can be found traveling the world, building her empire, sipping on tea or wine while reading a book, and wishing healthy eats were pancakes or cupcakes.

12:01 | Sneak Peek

Midnight's POV

This wasn’t a regular game of Twister.

Of course not.

But I knew that before we started playing.

So I shouldn’t have been surprised when ‘right foot green’ landed me in hell for two reasons.

The closest one to me not only had a shot of liquor on it, which I had to take in order to keep playing, but it also put me in the position of my dick being pressed up against Tyme’s succulent ass.

Quotes by Bella Jay  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I’ve crashed a wedding, been to jail, gone to a sex party, become social media famous, had the best conch salad I’ve ever had outside of the Bahamas, and slept with the enemy. Life is lifing.”
Bella Jay, 12:01

“No nigga had ever given me safe words. Bitch, I internally yelled at my vagina, are we safe?”
Bella Jay, 12:01

“What you’re failing to understand here, baby, is that I’m a pleaser.” “A pleaser?” I questioned, almost wanting to laugh at myself because why was I always so damn inquisitive with this man without shame?  “That means you have no idea how much pleasure I get from pleasing you. I want to make you cum as many times as possible. I want to watch you completely lose yourself and forget how to breathe because of what I’m doing to you. It’s so rewarding to know that you’re leaking all because of me.”
Bella Jay, 12:01

“You want to know what weakness is? Weakness is treating someone as though they belong to you. Strength is knowing that everyone belongs to themselves.”
Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

“We believe the one who has power. He is the one who gets to write the story. So when you study history, you must ask yourself, Whose story am I missing? Whose voice was suppressed so that this voice could come forth? Once you have figured that out, you must find that story too. From there you get a clearer, yet still imperfect, picture.”
Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

“Karma said BATTER UP”
