Most authors say they grew up reading. But not Julie Ortolon. Born with dyslexia, she didn't even learn to read until her early twenties when she discovered that romance novels were worth the struggle. It was only with the additional discovery of computers with spellcheck that she was able to turn her favorite hobby-- daydreaming romantic stories-- into a career. Having her first novel hit the "USA Today" bestseller list was a dream come true. Julie lives on the shore of Lake Travis near Austin, Texas, with her journalist husband, exuberant Australian Shepherd, and spoiled tabby cat.
