    Girl from Mars, June 2009



    “I, Philomena Desdemona Brown, do solemnly swear to forsake all romantic relationships. There. Do I really have to repeat it in Klingon?”



    It’s not like the vow, made by Fil and her two nerdy best male friends so they’d always stick together, was a big deal at the time. Frankly, Fil wouldn’t know romance if it hit her in the face anyway. Her one true love is her job as the artist for the famous comic Girl from Mars. Just like the comic’s alien heroine, Fil’s never had or needed a love interest—just her best friends. Until one of her friends breaks the vow and falls in love, bringing her smack back down to earth. Could it be that romance is in the stars for Fil after all?

    Honey Trap (July 2008)



    Sophie Tennant is used to sticky situations… Because Sophie used to be a private investigator, setting honey traps for husbands and giving wives ground for divorce. But these days she’s an aromatherapist–an aromatherapist who’s going on tour with a rock band, baby! Which is all good, until she recognises the band’s bassist, Dominick Steele: her first honey trap, and the man who taught her she has a lethal attraction to bad boys. But her attraction’s not half as lethal as the vengeful spouse who suddenly seems to be following her! Will there be a sweet ending–or a sting in the tale?

    Eleanor Connor has written lots of steamy novels, but sadly her own life is more mundane. In fact, the nearest she's come to passion for ages is having to listen through the thin walls of her house as friend and neighbour Hugh seduces an endless stream of women.

    But then Eleanor has a one-night fling of her own, waking up alone, repentant, and as she later realises, pregnant. Desperate to find her missing lover, if only to tell him he's going to be a father, she enlists Hugh to help her search. But should she be looking closer to home to find out what it is she really needs?

    Published in paperback by Headline Little Black Dress in January, 2008

    When New York City cab driver Zoe Drake finds a tall, dark and brooding man on her doorstep, she doesn't know what to think–does he want something, or has Christmas come early this year?

    Nick Giroux is looking for his long-lost father–not a newfound woman! But as she helps him in his search, there's something about him that makes Zoe let down her ice-cool defenses. The simmering attraction is too much, and for one night only, she's his for the taking…

    But after a night like that, can Nick ever let her go?

About me:



Welcome! I'm an award-winning, Waldenbooks bestselling author of sexy, funny, romantic novels.

I've got two books out at the moment: in the UK, there's GIRL FROM MARS (Little Black Dress, June 09), about a female comic book artist who takes a vow (in Klingon) not to get a boyfriend. Chicklit.com says, "Science fiction fans, rejoice! Finally chick lit has a heroine for you!"

Writing with Kathy Love as B. H. Dark, I've got CLOSE ENCOUNTERS, an erotic science fiction romantic comedy about four humans being abducted by space aliens in order to form an intergalactic porn empire. It's out as an e-book with Samhain Publishing, and USA Today bestselling author Erin McCarthy says it's "Funny, clever, and it has a Vegas lounge singer. What more can you ask for?" It'll be out in paperback in August.

I will fully admit I am a crap MySpacer. The site takes forever to load on my Mac and it causes it to make a funny noise. However, I blog on my website daily on www.julie-cohen.com/blog and I am an unrepentant Facebook addict. My Facebook profile is ..here. You can visit my web page, and send me an email, at www.julie-cohen.com.

SOME UPCOMING EVENTS: Saturday, 13 June: I'll be signing copies of GIRL FROM MARS at the Broad Street Waterstones in Reading, from 2-4 pm. Anyone who turns up in a space age / super hero costume will get a prize! Saturday, 20 June: I'll be giving a talk on writing and getting published at the Wokingham Library, from 10 am. Contact the library for more details.

..

Who I'd like to meet:

Readers, writers, fun and interesting people, and space aliens with super powers.

    THANKS FOR ADDING ME...

    I hope you enjoy my music because it was for you that i created.  The record companies don't want to give me a deal because i sound like Michael Jackson,,,they feel that i'm an emulator..  My song is totally different from MJ's and i'm Orginal with my music.  What they fail to realize is that you are the judge, not them.  How many record companies executives you think buy CD's? "NONE" they get them free. You are my judge if you feel that my music is good..please help support my cause... also goto www.reverbnation.com/marionpharoahtaite and become my fan there this will help my ratings :D  ....and if you join the streetteam you could win a cool autographed poster with your name on it... thank you for hearing me out...your new friend Marion
