Meet the Author

Like so many romance readers, my first romance novel was by Kathleen Woodiwiss - The Flame and the Flower, to be exact. I was thirteen. I spent the next month ignoring my friends while I worked my way through her back list. Shortly thereafter I discovered Judith McNaught, Johanna Lindsey, Karen Robards, Catherine Coulter, Shirlee Busbee among others, and devoured their lavish historical epics full of overbearing alpha males and the women who brought them to their knees. I was hooked. My high school teachers marveled at my ability to read romance novels under the desk and still score straight A's. I started to imagine myself, living in a cabin in the mountains somewhere, writing romance novels.It took me quite awhile to pursue my dream. After graduating from Stanford with a degree in English Literature, I worked in a variety of not so interesting admin jobs before I began my career in marketing. It wasn't exactly my dream job, but at least my writing appeared on several web sites and in many software marketing brochures. Unfortunately I wasn't able to fit the phrase "and her loins melted like hot wax" into any of them.During my stint as the world's surliest receptionist, I took my first stab at writing. The result was a very melodramatic western historical which reads like a bad Elizabeth Lowell rip off. It's currently languishing on my hard drive, forever stuck on page 330.Then in fall 2001 I had an incredible stroke of luck and got laid off from my marketing job. I decided it was time to stop saying I wanted to be a writer and to actually give it a serious go. Fortunately my husband, a socially well adjusted alpha male, is a very generous patron of the arts.Four years later, I sold my first book and now I'm pretty much living the dream of getting paid to write romance. I don't live in a cabin in the mountains, but I do live in a rural-ish town near San Francisco (hey, we have deer and bunnies, along with the occasional coyote) with my husband, 2 sons, and a dog who patiently listens to my dialogue and helps me work out plot points. When I'm not writing, I enjoy running, reading, cooking, and watching a brain numbing quantity of food network programming.

    good but a little short

    I really liked the story. I wanted the follow up of Carla from the previous book. I wish it was a little longer. There was approx 110 pages. Still a good story.

    Again HOT!!!

    She did it again. Jami is the queen of sexy, hot writing. I love reading all of her books but she needs a better editor as I found tons of typo mistakes that were not corrected before publishing.

    Good...

    This was a good book that left me hungry for more. I was hoping for a little more on this couple as far as their lives together but I was still happy about this book.

    Not Recommended

    The language in this book was too explicit and distasteful for my taste. A good author should be able to express themselves without using such foul language. I was disappointed with this book for that reason and will probably not purchase another book by this author.

    Amazing Sequel!

    Jami Aldem's "Private Party" was the first of her works I ever read. This sequel lived up to and exceeded my expectations. She is the only author I must read, and this is no exception. This is a must read for any romance and heat lover - it's hot, it's sexy and it's everything and more. Yum!
