Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. Attended New York University and graduated with a B.A. in 1963. Married in 1963, had three sons, divorced in 1976. Raised the sons, Andy, Brian and Curtis, alone in New Jersey. Worked for AT&T as a shareowner correspondent, then as an all-around assistant in a construction company, then sold bar steel for an import firm. Left that job as assistant sales manager. I've been writing full time since 1984.
Hobbies: knitting, crocheting, Tae Kwon Do, fencing, archery, shooting, jigsaw puzzles, logic problems, math problems, not cooking.
Don't do my own research, since if I did I'd stay with that and never get any writing done. I usually can finish a novel of about 120,000 words in about three months.
This is my first romance novel and it's made a positive impact on my understanding of what a romance novel should be! I really enjoyed that it had a very well thought out mystery to solve as the main plot-line. The protagonist is witty and engaging and she's naturally written into the story so it's engaging and easy to immerse into. I wasn't a fan of the romantic interest however the relationships and the banter was funny. This novel maintained my curiosity until the end and I would recommend it to my friends who are looking for a fun read.
This book reminded me why I stopped reading Harlequin Romances. Stupid arguments between the main characters, the need for a man to rescue the damsel in distress...this was chock full of both.
This novel was somewhat a departure for Green, who generally writes romances flavored with magic, eroticism or sword-and-sorcery - or some combination of the three. I was really pleased, therefore (because I generally enjoy her other novels) to find that this different tale of werewolves in Hollywood was just as good a story, with just a likable characters, and a really neat plot twist.
