Best Selling Books

The author of the multimillion-selling "Stephanie Plum" mystery series and other popular mystery novels has left her longtime publisher, St. Martin's Press, and joined the Random House Publishing Group.

Random House announced Monday that Evanovich has agreed to write four new novels, including two Stephanie Plum releases.

Financial terms were not disclosed, although Evanovich's book deal is likely worth tens of millions of dollars.

Evanovich's books have sold more than 75 million copies worldwide.

I love Janet Evonovich and her spicy Stephanie Plum--in fact, her mix of sexy dialogue and humourous situations helps to inform my writing of Choose-Your-Own Adveture Style romance novels at PassionsPath.com.
