Interview Author Stephanie Julian

We are really happy to have Author Stephanie Julian here at Book Lovers Inc today. Her new novel, Size Matters was released last week and she is here to tell us more about this book and her new series The Fringe. Please give Stephanie a warm welcome.

BLI: Steph can you please tell us a bit about yourself?

Stephanie: I’m a writer, have been all my life. I’m also the mother of two sons, which is always an adventure, usually a smelly one, and the wife of a great guy. I’ve always been a reader and I sold my first book in 2002, a sweet romance. But sweet was so not my style and I turned to the dark side. Erotic romance is the perfect fit. Hot guys, hot sex, who can argue with that?

BLI: Describe a typical day of writing? Are you a planner or pantser?

Stephanie: Well, …

Etruscan werewolf Kyle is a loner. The king’s assassin with a killer’s instincts. The last thing he needs is …
