Scarlette Pike

Scarlette is a mother of three, wife to one, and friend to many. In her spare time she enjoys scuba diving and gardening - sometimes at the same time! Pike is also interested in emotional health for kids and she writes children’s books with True Worth Books under her real name – Jamie Jensen.

She grew to maturity on the banks of the Virgin River in Southern Utah. After her fair share of wandering, a desperate prayer, and a simple idea she began to write a historical fiction novel: "In Spite of Lions". She was drawn to African explorers David and Mary Livingstone and David's one and only convert: Chief Sechele. The mix of Victorian etiquette and African survival inspired her and she wrote "In Spite of Lions" in a tiny, tiny apartment in central freezing Utah.
