Commissioner Shauna Cartwright knew she was stirring up a hornet's nest by reopening the Baby Jane Doe murder case. Now she faced the further wrath of the KCPD by recruiting the much-maligned Eli Masterson to get the job done. After witnessing the handsome, hard-nosed detective in action during a botched bank robbery, she sensed he would face down her enemies.
However, she was overpowered by her scandalous sexual attraction to the IA investigator who pushed the limits of her authority in his die-hard need to protect her from a sadistic killer. Surrendering to temptation broke every departmental rule imaginable...but as the case of Baby Jane Doe emerges from the shadows, would they risk their badges for loveand systematically stop a lethal traitor in his tracks?
Born and raised in Missouri, Julie now lives in Nebraska. She attributes her passion for writing romance to the fairy tales she read growing up, and shyness. Her family encouraged her to write down all those feelings she couldn't express and she soon developed a love of the written word. Today, she gets continued support from her fellow members in PRW, her husband Scott, and son Ryne.
Inspired by the likes of Agatha Christie and Encyclopedia Brown, she believed the only thing better than a good mystery was a good romance. She decided to combine the two and began writing for Harlequin Intrigue in 1999. She loves writing gritty, action-packed, emotionally-compelling stories.
With ten published books to her credit, Julie will add to that tally in 2003 with the release of four new novels from Harlequin Intrigue and Harlequin Blaze.
