Sophie Jordan
Pseudonym:
Sharie Kohler
Sophie Jordan took her adolescent daydreaming one step further and penned her first historical romance in the back of her high school Spanish class. This passion led her to pursue a degree in English and History.
A brief stint in law school taught her that case law was not nearly as interesting as literature - teaching English seemed the natural recourse. After several years teaching high school students to love Antigone, Sophie resigned with the birth of her first child and decided it was time to pursue the long-held dream of writing.
In less than three years, her first book, Once Upon A Wedding Night, a 2006 Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice Nominee for Best First Historical, hit book shelves. Her second novel, Too Wicked To Tame, released in March 2007 with a bang, landing on the USA Today Bestseller's List.

“Beautiful.”
“I stare into his eyes, I shake my head, sorry for the chance we lost. The chance we maybe never had. But not for saving him. I would do that again, no matter the cost.”
“I wont let him have you.”
“Yeah. A real date. Something official. You. Me. Tonight. We're long overdue.”
“What good is safety if you're dead inside?”
“After running for my life from hunters, a girl with too much lip gloss doesn't register on my fear radar.”
“He turns slightly... and smiles. Just a small smile, but lovely. Sexy.”
