Julie Wright

https://amzn.to/2yA0bJE 

Julie Wright (1972-still breathing) was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. She's lived in LA, Boston, and the literal middle of nowhere (don't ask). She wrote her first book when she was fifteen. Since then, she's written twenty three novels and coauthored three. Julie is a two-time winner of the Whitney award for best romance with her books "Cross My Heart" and "Lies Jane Austen Told Me" and has also won the Crown Heart award. Her book "Death Thieves" was a Whitney finalist for 2016. She is agented by Sara Crowe.

She has one husband, three kids, two salamanders, one dog, and a varying amount of fish (depending on attrition).

She loves writing, reading, traveling, hiking, playing with her kids, and watching her husband make dinner.

She used to speak fluent Swedish, but now speaks only well enough to cuss out her children in public.

She hates mayonnaise.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I've loved Julie Wright's books for a very long time.
One of my recent favorites is
Lies Jane Austen Told Me
and I'm really looking forward to her upcoming release,
Lies, Love, and Breakfast at Tiffany's.
