(“WIPS Unscripted” is her first book: Unlike reality TV, this book is an unscripted look at the reality of being a woman inside of professional sports. These are interviews with the wives and mothers of some of the most recognizable names in professional sports today, as well as female professional athletes.

Get a candid and unscripted look at life behind the scenes as well as in the public eye within the world of professional sports. Discover the truth about the many pitfalls and dangers awaiting those in the professional sports industry and the challenges they and their families face. It's not all glitz and glamor. Most of all, discover from those inside the professional sports industry the secrets on how to break into the professional sports industry and navigate the turbulent waters that come along with the money and the fame.

Another one of Jazette’s works is “WIPSlash: Life At 55 MPH”, a memoir that candidly explores the complex dynamics of female relationships and offers insights on how women can cultivate deeper, more supportive connections with one another. The reader takes a journey along both the high and low roads of the author’s life. Told from the eyes of a woman deeply involved in professional sports, first as a wife of a pro-athlete and now, as the mother of professionals.”
