“Try Barney’s or Saks. Do you have her size?”
“I could probably guess.”
“No. Check her lingerie drawer for her bra and panty sizes.”
“Good idea. What else do you have for me this morning?”
Closed Set is available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Smashwords.
Acknowledgments
I would be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge the inspiration provided by all the amazing romance writers before me. Chief among them are Jane Austen, Anya Seton, Daphne du Maurier, and, more recently, Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Sylvia Day, and Jennifer Crusie. These courageous, gifted pioneers paved the way for the rest of us.
I would also like to thank my patient, amazing, and utterly professional editor, Theresa Wegand for EVERYTHING, but especially for suffering through my penchant for using “like,” “look,” and those insufferable “ly” words.
Thanks also to Amanda Simpson of Pixel Mischief Design for the designing the cover and for putting up with my endless nit-picking over every detail.
Thank you to Elizabeth Reyes for her advice and support at a crucial time. It meant so much to have your words of encouragement.
And finally to my readers, every single one of you, for giving Closed Set a chance when I was an unknown indie author with no following. You make it all worth it. Thank you!
About the Author
Night after night, the moment Julia Harlow’s head hit the pillow; her imagination began plotting a romance, writing scenes in minute detail, instead of sleeping. Finally, after sleepless nights too numerous to count, she put pen to paper, literally, and wrote the first draft of Closed Set.
Since then, she’s graduated to Word and now writes on a keyboard like the big girls.
When she’s not writing her next romance novel, she can be found reading a romance, taking a walk through the historic village she calls home, baking a batch of homemade oatmeal raisin cookies, or watching the latest drama series.
Her first romance, Closed Set, was published in 2014.
