26 Comments

It’s here!!  SOMETHING ABOUT YOU is available in stores and on-line today!

Can you tell how excited I am?

The reviews of Something About You keep coming in. . .

“How do I like this book? Let me count the ways….a heroine who is smart, acts smart… good at her job and follows her professional principles[.]  And then there’s the hero who is portrayed as being as sinfully delicious as a double fudge chocolate cake with chocolate chips on top. And whipped cream…. The dialogue is fantastic. Smart, snappy, funny yet realistic. I can’t count the number of times I laughed while reading the book…. [T]his is one book I can totally recommend.” —Dear Author

“I don’t think I can do justice to how freaking fun this book is. Something About You is a perfect storm of awesome. From first impressions to the last page, it’s worth shaking your tail feather over… from the first scenes, the dialogue is dry champagne crossed with poprocks. (That’s a good thing.) It crackles, it’s funny, it makes you laugh, and it isn’t ever fake or cliche or completely unrealistic…. This is a contemporary romance well worth savoring, and laughing over, and reading all over again.”  —Smart Bitches, Trashy Books

“Another great Contemporary novel by Julie James, a book which carries her signature: great dialogue and captivating characters.”–The Book Smugglers

Video Interview– Borders True Romance Blog

3 Comments

So a couple weeks back, I mentioned that I had driven up to Ann Arbor to film an interview for the Borders True Romance blog.  It was a special author/author interview where Sue Grimshaw from Borders had another author, Joss Ware (who also writes as Colleen Gleason), do the interview.  I had such a great time doing the interview–both Sue and Joss/Colleen are fabulous!  We talked about my previous career as a lawyer, my books, what I’m reading now… all sorts of fun stuff.

Of course, the whole time I was watching this I was thinking, “That’s what my hair looks like?  Hmm.”

You can check out the interview here:
