Julie Beard
Passionate, vibrant, and unique. Those words best describe
the historical romances written by USA Today bestselling
author Julie Beard. Critics and readers alike praise Julie
for her ability to create living, breathing characters in
historical settings so vividly drawn they come alive.
Julie's first medieval novel was published by Berkley in
1994. Her first non-fiction book was released in 2000, the
critically acclaimed "how to" book, The Complete Idiot's
Guide to Getting Your Romance Published.'' Julie's first
Victorian romance, The Duchess' Lover, is an April 2002
release. It's a sensual tale of sexual and personal
awakening, featuring an older noblewoman who falls in love
with her young gardener. It's hot, hot, hot! And
poignant, as well.
Julie is what you might call a late-bloomer. She spent the
first 30 years of her life deciding what she didn't want to
be when she grew up. Realizing that life wasn't a dress
rehearsal, she then made some choices. Over the course of
the next 5 years, she acquired a master's degree in
journalism, a job in television reporting, a husband, her
first child, her first novel, and her first serious case of
exhaustion. Julie's second child was adopted from China as
a toddler and is an unending source of delight. Her
elementary school kids distract their world-weary mother
from writing in the most ingenious and lovable ways.
Julie gladly gave up the hard-bitten world of journalism to
dwell in a world of "happily ever afters."
