Splash into Romance with the Pearl Island Series
available as print books, ebooks, and audiobook!

Follow the spirited St. Claire siblings as they convert an abandoned mansion, once owned by their colorful ancestors, into a thriving bed and breakfast on a private island near Galveston, Texas. A legend of pirates and sunken treasure add local flavor to these fun contemporary stories.

“Ortolon’s protagonists must overcome some tough emotional issues before they can set their sights on the future, but their journey is laced with humor and even a little history (provided by the inn’s ghosts). Earnest and endearing, Ortolon’s newest is heartwarming and at times heartrending read.” —

About the Author

Reviewers from
Publisher’s Weekly
to
Romantic Times
have praised Julie Ortolon’s contemporary romance for being “sizzling,” “fast-paced,” and “filled with genuine heart.” Numerous awards for her work include two Bookseller’s Best Awards.
Almost Perfect
, book one of her Perfect trilogy, was a Rita finalist and was named Best Single Title Contemporary by the readers of
Affaire de Coeur
magazine.
 

Julie’s road to success as a romance novelist was a bit bumpier than most authors, however. Her struggle with dyslexia left her functionally illiterate until her mid twenties when she discovered romance novels were worth the effort. To turn her favorite pastime, daydreaming emotionally rich stories, into a career, she taught herself to read, type, and use English as a written language, not just a spoken one. Her struggles made hitting the
USA Today
list with her first title even more rewarding.
 

When Julie isn’t writing or reading, she enjoys gardening, cooking, and traveling the world. You can learn more about Julie at
