Do you think Santa will bring me this chimney?

He's a keeper. 🎅🎄💚❤️

Hey all!

I think this time of year has caused me to completely lose the logical part of my brain. I'm having a blast but forgetting so many important things. Please tell me I'm not the only one.

Anyway, one huge thing I forgot was to let you all know I did a takeover at Team Clean Romance Book Club's page. It was so fun and I did a giveaway on each post. Because I was so lame and forgot to tell you all, I've left the giveaways open! You can go over now and search my name and find all of my posts for a chance to win.

And while you're there make sure you take a peek at all of the other amazing author's posts. :) I left an easy to follow link in the comments.

Aloha,
Julia

My alter ego/ pen name, Julia Clemens, is having a giant Black Friday sale! If you'd like to get in on the fun, the entire Whisling Island series in on a major sale!! Like 60% off big sale!

Here's the link for those who want to check it out. :)

Totally agree

Getting to be a part of this auction is truly humbling. I wrote this series on the beautiful island of Maui. With tears in my eyes I think of all that has been lost and am grateful to get to do this small part. If you’d like to bid on this I’ll love you forever. I mean I’ll love you forever anyway but ya know, it would be super cool. :)

Here is the link and it will also be in my bio: https://www.32auctions.com/organizations/111641/auctions/148492/auction_items/4730722

This link goes straight to my listing but there are over 900 things to bid on including editor critiques, more books, visits, and so many awesome opportunities.

Oh and I never really ask this but for this post would you guys please share? I really really hope to raise some incredible money for those suffering on Maui. Aloha 😘

I've always had an obsession with makeover movies. Like that moment when Mia Thermopolis comes out from behind those mirrors? Chills. Every time. Not that Mia needed the makeover, in fact, I'm a firm believer that people don't ever need makeovers.

But books sometimes do. So on that note. I gave my Kiss Academy series a makeover. Same books but new covers, new blurbs, and a new name. Yes, you saw that right. I am moving all of my YA books to the name Julia Sawa. I'll still be posting on here about my YA stuff but I was beginning to realize my voice for my YA is so different from my voice for my romances. Does that mean this will always be this way? Probably not. I love makeovers, remember? ;) But for now it will be. And I can't wait to show you these new covers. I absolutely adore them!

If you haven't read The Kissing Game yet, I'd do it now. :) I'm not biased at all. Here's the new blurb and cover.

I have a secret.
I’m in love with Nashville Wilde.
And although some might wonder what’s the big deal? It’s this.
He’s the king of Kiss Academy.
I’m the scholarship kid who’s in danger of losing said scholarship.
He’s an actual freaking movie star.
I’m a decent soccer player. Okay, more than decent. I’m actually pretty proud of my soccer skills, but still, international heartthrob > high school soccer player.
But the very biggest deal of all? He’s my best friend’s brother.
And I would never do anything to hurt my best friend. Period.
So my love for Nash will always stay a secret.
Who cares that we have to get all up close and personal now that he’s promised his sister he’ll practice soccer with me after I was kicked off the team for something I didn’t do.
Who cares that it kind of seems like he might be into me too? (Definitely wishful thinking).
Who cares that he stood up for me after his ex, and the most popular girl in school, starts badmouthing me.
I can’t fall for my best friend’s brother.
So I’ll just keep dreaming of Nashville Wilde and the kissing game.

If you're wondering how my week has been...anyone else?

Fair comparison.

Happy Holidays! Can you believe we are already days from December? I'm wrapping my mind around the idea of 2023 and let me tell you all, I am equal parts excited and terrified. ;)

One of my favorite parts of the holiday season is...you guessed it! Holiday books! So when I had a chance to be a part of a giant clean romance holiday sale, I had to jump on it. I am joining over 20 other authors and we all have holiday books that are on sale for $0.99! Crazy, right? In this economy? Haha! My book, Their White Christmas, is also included. So you can get that for $0.99 too!

I'll add the link in the comments below.

I am so excited to be a part of this book fair! Especially because the prize is what everyone needs during this part of the holiday season. :) I'll add below the link to enter and shop tons of amazing romcoms/clean romances!
