But most of all I love how she has everyone so damn confused, but so convinced of her sincerity that they'll do anything she asks, no matter how ridiculous it is from their point of view. I love it when she divorces Lyon for shaming her. She's proud and strong willed and Lyon loves that about her. Christina is one amazing character, and she never leaves one feel bored. Christina being raised by Natives and then returning to England to honour her mother's request. What I liked most was the unique plot. The prologue nicely set the stage for this, as well as for Christina's character, and Jessica's journal developed this plot nicely without interfering with Lyon and Christina's romance, which was rather whirlwind and angry, but tender and joyful as well. Julie lives in Leawood, Kansas, and is currently working on her next novel.The first book in the Crown's Spies series. Susan Duerden does a wonderful job of narrating this one. Basically, I want them to escape into another world for a little while and afterwards to feel as though they've been on a great adventure." Julie described her goals this way: "I want my readers to laugh and cry and fall in love.
Readers claim that it's the humor as well as poignancy of her novels that keep them coming back for more. Whether the setting be medieval Scotland, Regency England, frontier Montana, or modern-day Louisiana, her themes are consistent: family, loyalty, and honor. Today more than 40-million copies of her books are in print, and they are translated in dozens of languages around the world. Her first novel, Gentle Warrior was published in 1985, and there has been a steady parade of bestsellers ever since. After the publications of two young adult books, she turned her interests to historical fiction. Early in life I learned that self-expression had to be forceful, imaginative, and quick."Ĭreating stories was always a passion for Julie, but she didn't focus on making it a career until the youngest of her three children entered school. "Add in the fact that I was the sixth of seven children. "The Irish relish getting all the details of every situation," she explains. Growing up in a large family of Irish heritage, she took to storytelling naturally.
It's no surprise that Julie Garwood became a writer.
