They say death can be beautiful. But after the death of her mother, seventeen-year-old Raven Weathersby gives up her dream of becoming a fashion designer, barely surviving life in the South Carolina lowlands.



To make ends meet, Raven works after school as a seamstress creating stunning works of fashion that often rival the great names of the day.



Instead of making things easier on the high school senior, her stepdad's drinking leads to a run in with the highly reclusive heir to the Maddox family fortune, Gideon Maddox.



But Raven's stepdad's drying out and in no condition to attend the meeting with Maddox. So Raven volunteers to take his place and offers to repay the debt in order to keep the only father she's ever known out of jail, or worse.



Gideon Maddox agrees, outlining an outrageous demand: Raven must live in his home for a year while she designs for Maddox Industries' clothing line, signing over her creative rights.



Her handsome young captor is arrogant and infuriating to the nth degree, and Raven can't imagine working for him, let alone sharing the same space for more than five minutes.



But nothing is ever as it seems. Is Gideon Maddox the monster the world believes him to be? And can he stand to let the young seamstress see him as he really is?

About Julie:

Born in Ohio, I lived next to my grandfather’s horse farm until the fourth
grade. Summers were about riding, fishing and make-believe, while winter
brought sledding and ice-skating on frozen ponds. Most of life was magical, but
not all.

I struggled with multiple learning disabilities, did not excel in school.
I spent much of my time looking out windows and daydreaming. In the fourth
grade (with the help of one very nice teacher) I fought dyslexia for my right
to read, like a prince fights a dragon in order to free the princess locked in
a tower, and I won.

Afterwards, I read like a fiend. I invented stories where I could be the
princess… or a gifted heroine from another world who kicked bad guy butt to win
the heart of a charismatic hero. Who wouldn’t want to be a part of that? Later,
I moved to Florida where I continued to fantasize about superpowers and
monsters, fabricating stories (my mother called it lying) and sharing them with
my friends.

Then I thought I’d write one down…

Hooked, I’ve been writing ever since. I write historical, contemporary,
urban fantasy, adventure, and young adult romances. 



I love strong heroines,
sweeping tales of mystery and epic adventure… which must include a really hot
guy. My writing is proof you can work hard to overcome any obstacle. Don’t give
up. I say, if you write, write on!
