**Please note: the giveaway is now closed. Winners will be announced shortly.
I’ve been talking about this for a while now, so I’m thrilled to finally be able to share the cover for my next release, About That Night. I think the Berkley art department really knocked it out of the park with this one!
HE’S PLAYING GAMES
Though Rylann Pierce tried to fight the sparks she felt for billionaire heir Kyle Rhodes the night they met, their sizzling chemistry was undeniable. But after being stood up on their first date, Rylann never expected to see him again. So when she finds herself face to face with Kyle in a courthouse nine years later, she’s stunned. More troubling to the beautiful Assistant U.S. Attorney is that she’s still wildly attracted to him.
BUT SHE’S MAKING THE RULES
Just released from prison, Kyle Rhodes isn’t thrilled to be the star witness in a high-profile criminal case—but when Rylann comes knocking at his door, he finds she may be the one lawyer he can’t say no to. Still as gorgeous and sharp-tongued as ever, she lays down the law: she doesn’t mix business with pleasure. But Kyle won’t give up on something he wants—and what he wants is the one woman he’s never forgotten. . .
***
So there you have it. Anyone who would like to find out more about About That Night can read an excerpt here. The book will be available April 3rd.
Now, as many of you know, the hero in About That Night makes his first appearance in my current release A Lot Like Love (where we learn why, exactly, he’s in prison). So to celebrate the upcoming release of Kyle’s book, I’m giving away three copies of A Lot Like Love. The giveaway will be open until 10pm CST tomorrow (Friday) and is open to everyone, including international readers. All you have to do to enter is leave a comment below.
Enjoy!
Ooooo!!! Love the cover 🙂 Can’t wait to read your newest book!!!

btw, gorgeous cover!
Yay! Can’t WAIT to learn more about Kyle!!!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Thanks so much for the chance to win, Julie! I was introduced to your books very recently and I’m now super excited for your new release.
You got such a gorgeous cover, too. None of yours have been a miss so far; you need to share your cover-luck with a few others (coughcough).
They certainly captured the mood of the story with that cover! Can’t wait!
LOVE LOVE LOVE ALL YOUR BOOKS!!! Can’t wait for Kyle’s book!!!
I can’t wait for this book! I Just love em! Thanks for the chance to win!!!!!
I totally, totally love the cover! Can’t wait to read it!
Wow Julie! That is an awesome cover. I who doesn’t pay attention much to covers, am mesmerized. You have been blessed by the cover gods.
Oh and don’t enter me in the giveaway! Have all your books 🙂
Love it!
Now about Xander… ;P
Yay, cover and book summary! I think the cover looks great. I’ve enjoyed all of your books so far and I really can’t wait to read your latest. 🙂
Oh My KYLE! Honestly, you had me at the cover, but after reading the “outline” I am wishing it would be April 3rd already. It sounds really interesting and yet again like a hot sizzling romance. Really cannot wait to get my hands on this new write up of yours 🙂
I love how the cover shows the female protagonist to be more aggressive compared to your other covers.
I cannot wait to read about Kyle! And another US Attorney, does that mean Cameron will make an apperance? Is it April yet?!
OMG! I love that excerpt! Now April seems so far away!=/ LOL!;P
and that cover.. Just WOW!:D all your covers are just great!=)
thanks for sharing and for the giveaway!:*
I can’t wait to read Sawyer’s book!
Gorgeous cover, Julie! 🙂 I love it. And I really can’t wait till April 3rd-the excerpt just makes the wait ever worse, lol. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for Kyle and Rylann.
P.S. No need to enter me in the giveaway as I already have a signed copy of A Lot Like Love. Thanks for signing that for me at the Lit Signing in NYC! 🙂
Oh, smart and sexy! 🙂 Waiting, waiting, waiting for it to be April!
can’t wait to read it! love your books!
omg i can’t wait to read this ….the cover just plain looks hot….
Love the cover! So Hot!:P ..can’t wait! Thank you!:)
I love your books, I’ve read all Of them at least 5 times!!! I can’t wait to read Kyle’s story!! 🙂 love the cover!
Amazing cover!
I love your books (just wish there were more of them) A lot like love is my favorite so far, and I would die of happiness if I win.
Is it April already?
Hot cover! I’m a designer myself, and I like the way they handled the cover text. Looks great.
Julie James is my all-time favorite author. Love your books and love that your female heroines are strong women and not doormats like other romance novels. Here’s to all the other strong women out there. Rock on Julie James!!!!!
Looking so forward to the release of Kyle’s book! I am also an attorney and really enjoy the law aspects that you tie into your books to set them apart from the ordinary romance novels. And your books make me laugh out loud!
Love your books, really excited to read About That Night!
The excerpt is great. I can’t wait to read it. You didn’t want to tell us too much about the heroine in some of your earlier interviews, so it was nice reading the excerpt. It sounds like Rylann will be a terrific counterweight and match for Kyle.
I like the cover, too. You’re going for a business look this time instead of the formal wear on the last two covers. It’s different, but just as nice.
:O such an awesome cover! I can picture it on the shelves already 🙂 April 3rd is sooooo far away 🙁 I would love it if I can win!!
Oo! This sounds amazing – really looking forward to reading them!
Love the new excerpt! Aaaah, April 2012 cannot come fast enough!
Don’t enter me into the contest. I love the cover and the excerpt. I can’t wait for this book!
Love it! Can’t wait!
WOW absolutely hooked and will be so hard to wait until April-but I know it will be oh so worth it! I have a ritual for reading your books-Get them the day they come out, nice glass of wine, snuggle on the couch with blanket and pillow and slowly immerse myself into the book-I savor every word-Love your books!
Congrats. I LOVE the book cover & I can’t wait to buy a copy of this amazing book.
Love the cover.. can’t wait for the book!!
I love that the female character looks powerful. I can’t wait to read it!
I just LOVE the cover! (no need to enter the contest) Can’t wait for the release!

Don’t enter me in the contest, please (I already have all your books!). I just wanted to say I can’t wait to read this one. Your books are written so well, I don’t mind the wait.
Wow, can’t wait to read another homerun from you! This looks great.
I can’t wait for Kyle’s book!
Sounds like a very amusing book. I enjoyed already several of Julie James books and now I’m eager to devour the next one.
Thanks for this opportunity 🙂
This book sounds so good and I love the cover. I love that your books have lawyers as main characters, as a lawyer myself it is nice to see us as the main character a not in a bad way.
Wish the book will be released this christmas… I read and really like all your books, especially the book covers. They feel different.

Lovely cover! Thanks for the chance to win. 🙂
Love the cover. Would love the chance to win A LOT LIKE LOVE. 🙂
Love the cover and can’t wait for the book. So glad the art people gave us a side shot so her skirt didn’t have to be wide enough for the title.
So Excited for the New Book!!! Just did a little happy dance after reading the excerpt 😉
Is it April yet? Love the cover and can’t wait to read the book. Don’t enter me as I have all your books
Hi Julie!
I love the cover, but I thought that Kyle was, well, blonde. Did he die his hair or did it darken to brown and it just looks black here? (but I still love it anyway)
Cover sounds awesome and so does the blurb!! Off to read the excerpt right now.
Thanks Julie.

I have been waiting for this!!! Already pre-ordered on Book Depo, but I would love to give the copy away on my blog if I won.

Will pimp it out on my blog for you.
Can’t wait for this book!
Awesome cover! Looking forward to next spring!
Cover is Hott….Love the blue…strinking!!
So excited for Kyle’s book.
I do like the cover but could he undo his shirt just a few more buttons? 😉
Love the cover, and love the excerpt! I just added this to my books-to-buy list! 🙂
Love the cover, even the bulge in his pants!
Looks like she’s in charge! Rowr!!
I haven’t managed to pick myself up a copy of A Lot Like Love yet so please count me in! 🙂

Julie I just finished reading your fourth and current book, “A Lot Like Love!” I don’t know how it’s possible, but each one was better than the last. I absolutely love your characters and was thrilled to see “About That Night” is going to be Kyle’s story. I so totally enjoyed Jordan and her hot, smouldering FBI agent Nick McCall and yes it certainly made me want an FBI agent all my own. April cannot come quickly enough. You Rule Julie!!!!
This looks great, I can’t wait to read it – I love the cover too! I can’t wait to read about Kyle’s story!

Cannot wait to read this book. Thanks for contest. Happy Weekend.
April 3rd is WAY to far away!!! Read all JJ books..all great reads and finished in one night. Hoping to see a little of Jack/Cameron and Jordan/Nick in here. Can’t wait to learn more about Kyle, he was fiery in Alot Like Love, very protective of his sister but sweet as well. Should be exciting! Love that Rylann is a US Attorney so we should see some of Cameron & Jack! They are my favorite so far follwed closely by Jordan & Nick. April 3rd can’t come fast enough!
Love the cover! Sounds like a great read! Putting it on my list of must buy books.

You told us that cover model’s name once; what was it?
I am so excited to read your upcoming book. I have to admit I am new to your books. I just finished reading: Just the sexiest man alive and found it very enjoyable. I am downloading alot like love tonight on my kindle so I’m anxiously waiting to get home to start that one. Thanks again for sharing your wonderful writing abilities with us!

But this is just cruel. I want to read the book now. 🙁

Thanks JJ.
Nice to have something to look forward to!
That cover IS great! Only problem is the loooong wait for the book.
I’ve read ALLL so many times, the pages are falling out. I need a new copy!
ATN sounds so promising. One question: How do you pronounce the heroine’s name? Is it Rye-lann or Ril-ann? Sorry, I’ve never heard the name. Good luck with the book!
OMG scruffy & smug dimples – you’re killing me LOL.
Don’t enter me.
Patience is not my strong suit, but for your books Julie I can swing it. Love love love your heroines so much. Can’t wait for Rylann!
Thanks for the giveaway! I’m not in the CST timezone, so I’m hoping I made it in time! I really like the new cover, by the way 🙂
I love it! If I still can I’d like to enter the giveaway!:) thanks!
Thanks for the giveaway! This is probably too late but I just wanted to say that A Lot Like Love sounds awesome and I love theses covers.
I know I’m late for the contest but I just have to say this: I love your books. I have been reading them over and over again. The copies I have are really worn out. Your books can’t come fast enough. You are one of my few all time favourite writers. Don’t stop!!
Hi everyone! Thanks so much for all the compliments on the cover and excerpt. Glad you’re all looking forward to About That Night!
A few of you had questions, so here goes…
Sherie: Yes, Cameron is in the book. Along with a few other returning characters. : )
Kim and Vivian: Yes, I told Berkley that I wanted the heroine to be in a suit this time. I think they did a good job with it!
Simone: Kyle is dark blond. I’m just imagining that his sideburns are a little darker than the rest of his hair. Think Josh Holloway/Sawyer. : )
infinitieh: You are not the only one who noticed that… There have even been a few conversations on Twitter about the–ahem–bulge in the hero’s pants. I think it makes the picture extra-realistic. ; )
Janet: I don’t know the name of the model on this cover–maybe I should ask my editor. : ) You’re probably thinking of the model on the cover of A LOT LIKE LOVE, whose name is Jed Hill.
Jeanne: The heroine’s name is pronounced RY-linn. I heard the name through a friend and thought it fit well for this heroine. : )
GREAT excerpt! But I can’t believe I have to wait until April now!!
Such an attractive cover!!! Can’t wait for it on the shelf…
Love love love the excerpt!!!!april is so far away still….
Another great cover to go with the other four. Love them! April is a long wait.
Oh God! April! 🙁
This looks like such a great book. The cover is to die for. Good luck on the sales front, you’re gonna do great.
OMG want to read I dnt how I going to wait till April
