Julie Anne Sauriol is the author of Emperor, book 1 of the Hunab Ku series. Her second novel, Love and Other Racquets, a romantic comedy about second chances, tennis, and a little organized-crime mayhem, is set to release in late 2026.
Julie lives in the Chicago suburbs with her husband, just blocks away from each of her three grown children.
She has always wanted to write love stories that go somewhere unexpected—literally and emotionally.
When she's not writing, reading, traveling, or pretending to be Disney characters with her granddaughter, she's dreaming of the next exotic location she, her characters, or her cat Jojo can visit.
