Biography
After studying at Douglas College in New Jersey, Janet Evanovich decided to go into writing. Sending many manuscripts to several editors, she received as many refusals back.
Returning to be a secretary she received a call by a editor interested in Second Chance at Love, a romance novel today forgotten by all. After twelve books of the same kind, she took a new approach and launched into detective novels.
She builds Stephanie Plum with a well rhythmed style, strong characters as the funny Mamie Mazur. These adventures have been very successful.
