The unexpected meeting of Jake Winston saves her from reckless self harm, but their illicit connection leaves her questioning her past, her life, and herself most of all. She battles heartbreak over her loss and guilt over the inexplicable attraction to Jake. Then, she learns of betrayal by the one person she thought she knew and discovers that nothing is at it seems about her life or even herself.

Owen won the Zola Award and First Place in Romance category with the Pacific Northwest Writers Association in July 2010 with Seeing Julia. If you enjoy the tender scenes of P.S. I Love You, the poignant story lines of Nicholas Sparks, and the twists and turns in plot lines like those of Jodi Picoult, you are going to LOVE Katherine Owen's novel Seeing Julia!
PRAISE for SEEING JULIA...
"...an authentic look at grief and love. I believe anyone that has ever loved someone, lost them, and found a life and another love will devour Seeing Julia. Be forewarned: keep a box of Kleenex handy, as you will need them."
"...You get a little of everything in this book. Love, anger, angst, misery, retribution, they're all in there and make for a wonderful read."
"...Seeing Julia was everything I look for in a great book. Heartbreakingly sad, funny, enlightening, and best of all, heart mending...five stars are not enough..."
If you like dark, edgy compelling fiction with elements of love and romance, look for Owen's other works in contemporary fiction/romance by simply searching for her other novels, NOT TO US, WHEN I SEE YOU, and the Truth In Lies series including THIS MUCH IS TRUE and THE TRUTH ABOUT AIR & WATER and TELL ME SOMETHING TRUE.

"The Truth About Air & Water, Book 2" is now AVAILABLE. Readers say READ "This Much Is True, Book 1" FIRST. Both are standalones, but that's what readers say to do.

With her writing, Owen admits she has a fondness for angst, likes to play with a little drama in her writing, and essentially toy around with the unintentional complications of love and relationships (in her fiction). She contends this began early on when she won a poetry contest at the age of fourteen and appears to be without end. Owen has an avid love of coffee, books, and writing, but not necessarily in that order. She writes both Contemporary Romance and New Adult fiction which includes her bestselling TRUTH IN LIES Series (a series despite despising 'series') beginning with This Much Is True and her latest release, The Truth About Air & Water.
Note: The TRUTH IN LIES series is fan-driven. So. There will be a third book about Linc and Tally. Look for Tell Me Something True in 2015.
About Owen's fiction...This is NOT the light trope stuff. She travels a unique, writerly path and enjoys writing dark and angsty (a "non-word" she is fond of) emotional love stories. She often warn readers to be prepared with: time, tissues, wine, Advil or your drug of choice. And, as her most favored character, Lincoln Presley, would say, "do what you must, Princess."
Katherine Owen is always writing or thinking about writing. She lives in an old house near Seattle with her family where she is working on her next book, like always, while her family wishes she would clean and cook more often. Cinderella, she is not; and she constantly reminds them of this.
