Finding Julia
Tour by N K Author Services
Can a moment of passion outlast years of secrets and misery? For Julia Patterson, meeting Luke Buchanan awakens within her a passion she’s never dared dream possible. He claims her body and and helps her remember what it means to be a woman. But Fate has a twisted sense of humor. Just when Julia is ready to step over the threshold into a wonderful new life, her almost-ex-husband is diagnosed with a heart condition that puts her divorce on hold. Turning her back on Luke is the most difficult thing she’s ever done. But Julia has a secret, one that Charles discovers and uses against her. Years later, when Luke walks back into Julia’s life, the passion between them is just as explosive. But Charles is still controlling her from the grave, and the secret Julia has hidden for fourteen years could destroy their dreams forever.
My Review!!
Finding
Julia
by Desiree Holt
Overall
Rating **** ½ Stars
This is the first book I’ve read
from this author, and WOW this book blew me away! It was very well written and
the storyline flowed very well. It was interesting and very intriguing. Julia
and Luke were so great together, they had the chemistry that made the book more
interesting. I was not able to but this book down. It is very fast-pace. You
have Julia who is in a middle of a divorce, and then you have Luke who is
swoon-worthy and downright sexy. You have some twist and turns and it will
leave you on the edge of your seat. A must read. Great job Desiree I am a fan
for life!!

~MY
INTERVIEW~
Questions:
1.
When
did you decide to write?
I think I have wanted to write all my life. My brain was
always busy. But I didn’t get the chance until I was retired, and we had moved
to Texas. I complete my first manuscript in 2004.
2.
How
did you come up with the idea of your newest book?
Finding Julia is actually based on a
real-life love story. I took a few liberties with the time frame and a few
other things but essentially is the story of the anguish two people suffered
and the strength of their love through adversity.

Genre do write?
I write erotic romance but, as I tell people, in all
different flavors, everything from BDSM to contemporary, but always with
romance and strong characters.

I actually do write with other authors. Cerise Deland and I
have an ongoing series of erotic political thrillers called nemesis, and Joey
Hill and I just completed our first (but I hoopoe not our last) joint venture, Nightfall. I have also written series
with other authors where we each wrote our own book. I really enjoy it.

Who
is your biggest inspiration?
People;. I love to look at people and play the What If
game? What fi they did this? Or that? A friend of mine just eyserday was
