About

Amelia James started reading steamy romance novels in junior high, but her mom took them away from her, so she started daydreaming instead. After she got married, she wrote some of her naughtier daydreams down and sent them to Playgirl magazine. Two of them got published.  She kept daydreaming and writing stories until her dirty stories turned into trashy books.

She lives in Colorado, but she’ll always be a loyal Wisconsin Cheesehead. When she’s not lusting after her next bad boy hero, she looks for inspiration in sci-fi and action movies, football players, bloodsucking lawyers, muscle cars, and kick-butt chicks.

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;">Her Twisted Pleasures is told as a series of vignettes. Each chapter is a sexy scene told from one of three POVs and takes places in a new setting and time. It progresses linearly, so it is very easy to follow. And, I have to say, I really did love that Miz James decided to tell it this way. I don't believe I've ever read another vignette-style novel. It gave the story a fast pace that pulled you along from one chapter to the next. And it was exciting to know that it was never going to slow down, never let up.</span><div><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;">...We get a very sultry and seductive and entangled romance. It was both titillating and torturous the way that Will lets Talia believe she is cheating on him, all the while getting seriously turned on by her exploits. And, woah, does Alex deliver the sexy on each and every said exploit. That man is... so dark and morally ambiguous that you can't help but want him. Talia definitely gets all the kink and spice she can handle!</span> <a>~Romantic Book Affairs</a><span style="color:#333333;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;"><br /></span></div>
