AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT

STARLA HARTLESS

Starla Hartless lives in Sweetwater TN, a town which features heavily in her books.  Starla is a very private person, who refuses to make public appearances or have her photo displayed on her books.  Starla loves romance and by her own description, her books are romantic and naughty.

Starla co-authored “Carved Wooden Heart” with Elizabeth Horton-Newton before beginning her Cougar Love Series.  The first book in the series is the very popular “Dear Libby”

Starla is currently working on a holiday Cougar book which we hope to publish by      December 1, 2019.  She is also working on the next in the series “Cherokee Kisses” a historical romance about the Cherokee and the Trail of Tears depicting the love between an Irish immigrant and a young Cherokee man. Descended from Irish and Cherokee parents she is fascinated by the history of both cultures.

When she isn’t writing Starla enjoys spending time with her dog, Lincoln and playing the Dulcimer.

We are very proud that Starla has chosen to let Dragonfly Books publish her work.

Steamy Cougar Romance

Available NOW for pre-order on Amazon Kindle.

“Sparks fly when older advice columnist, Sadie Broward, meets the grandson of a publishing magnate from New York City. Jake Stark is sent by his grandfather Richard to the small town of Sweetwater, Tennessee to interview one of the candidates for a position in the family’s national publications. Sadie feels Jake is looking down his nose at her and her town. Jake inserts himself uninvited into her life. When she travels to New York City to meet the Board of Directors of Stark Publications she is unprepared for the adventures that follow. She meets Pepper Vandenberg, Jake’s purported fiancee to be. Is Jake using Sadie to make Pepper jealous or is there more to their passion than what happens in the bedroom? This is a story about chance encounters leading to unexpected liaisons. When Fate steps in, common sense flies out the window. A steamy romance from one of the author’s of “Carved Wooden Heart”.
