Like me, most readers were introduced to Julie through her engaging Daughters of Boston series, published back in 2008! I can hardly believe it has been that long ago.

Since then Julie has released over 20 historical romance novels and novellas, a contemporary romance series, and now this talented writer has released a romantic suspense novel, The Secret of Emerald Cottage! I’m delighted to have Julie back at Relz Reviewz to chat about …

A Seaside Summer: In the Spotlight

I’ve been on a bit of a Victorian and Regency reading fest recently. Somehow the sweet and tender romances of that era have been a welcome relief to the turmoil in the real world at this time.

Collections like A Seaside Summer are a wonderful way to get a taste of a new to you author’s style, and most often leads to me discovering backlists I’m excited to add to my TBR. I think you will find the same when you dive into these novels from experienced writers Josi, Martha, and Heather.
