A native West Virginian, Jule McBride's dream to write romances came true in the 90s with the publication of her debut novel WILD CARD WEDDING. It received the Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice Award for Best First Series Romance. Since then, the author has been nominated for multiple awards including two lifetime achievement awards and nominations for American and Duets, in the categories of 'best book." In addition to these series, Jule has written for Intrigue, and currently makes her happy home at Temptation and Blaze. While her heartwarming love stories continue to meet with strong reviews, she's also proud to have seen so many, such as the BABY AND THE BODYGUARD, BABY TRAP and THE BOUNTY HUNTER'S BABY on the Waldenbooks bestsellers list. A prolific write, she has over thirty titles to date. She writes a fresh, sexy, highly contemporary story.
