Romancing Tulsa With Best-Selling Author Susan Elizabeth Phillips


If you're a fan of lighthearted romance fiction, then Susan Elizabeth Phillips may be right up your alley. Known for her sense of humor and sexy storylines, Phillips is the only author to win the Romance Writers of America Favorite Book of the Year Award four times. In our store she can be found in the Contemporary Romance section located in the north room of our building, just behind Gatsby's Grill.

SEP, as she's known to her fans, has written over twenty novels, seven of which are part of the Chicago Stars series, including the ever popular Nobody's Baby But Mine, the story of a physics professor pursuing a football player and getting more than she bargained for.

One of her stand alone novels, Ain't She Sweet?, follows the story of an unconventional heroine: Sugar Beth Carey, who was once the "wild child of Parrish, Mississippi" and is now a thrice-divorced woman driven home by poverty. Still as strong and sassy as ever, Sugar Beth is still not the girl she used to be and must face the mistakes of her past.

Phillips' latest novel Call Me Irresistible is the latest in a collection of books that includes Fancy Pants and Lady Be Good. Two days after her new book's release, SEP will be appearing at Hardesty Regional Library, Connors Cove on January 20th, from 7pm to 8pm. Copies of her books will be available for purchase, and there will also be representatives from the Tulsa Night Writers and the Romance Writers Ink to answer questions about local writing groups. For all you fans and budding writers, this event is free and all ages, but seating is limited so don't be late!
