A B Julian

Hey there! I'm A B Julian, and I write the kind of M/M romance that probably shouldn't turn you on as much as it does. (But let's be honest - the forbidden stuff is always the hottest, right?)

Writing wasn't my first career choice. Actually, I spent years trying to fit into the "normal" corporate world, wearing uncomfortable suits and pretending I wasn't daydreaming about steamy scenes between gorgeous men during boring meetings. But those characters in my head wouldn't shut up, especially the deliciously cruel bullies who turn out to have hearts of gold... eventually. Usually after putting their victims through absolute hell, because I'm evil like that.

I finally gave in and started writing down those stories that kept me up at night. You know the ones - where the line between hate and love gets so blurry you can't tell where one ends and the other begins. Where the "villain" makes you feel things you probably shouldn't. Where consent is... complicated. (Don't worry, I always include trigger warnings!)

My debut novel "I Hate You!" dives deep into that dynamic with Nathan and Michael's story. It's everything I love in M/M romance - intense emotions, complicated power dynamics, and chemistry so explosive it practically sets the pages on fire. When Michael's blue eyes first appeared in my mind, I knew I had to write their story. It's raw, it's messy, and it definitely isn't for everyone. But for those who love their romance with a heavy dose of angst and enemies-to-lovers tension? You're my people.

I write the books I always wanted to read but couldn't find enough of - stories where the bad guy doesn't have to become completely "good" to deserve love. Where healing doesn't mean forgetting. Where the path to happiness is paved with broken glass, but the cuts make the eventual triumph that much sweeter.

When I'm not torturing my characters (lovingly, I promise), you can usually find me binge-reading other dark M/M romances, drinking way too much coffee, and spoiling my cat rotten. She's my main writing partner, though she's a harsh critic - one poorly written scene and she'll knock my laptop right off the desk. (Thanks for the editing help, Princess.)

Fair warning: my books aren't for the faint of heart. If you're looking for sweet, gentle romance where everyone behaves themselves... you might want to look elsewhere. But if you like your love stories complicated, your men morally grey, and your happy endings hard-won? Pull up a chair. We're going to have fun together.

I'm still pretty new to this whole author thing, but I'm already working on more stories that push boundaries and explore the darker side of romance. Because let's face it - sometimes the most beautiful love stories bloom in the darkest places.

You can find me on Instagram and TikTok where I post probably too many thirst traps of my book boyfriends and behind-the-scenes peeks at whatever angsty scenario I'm currently putting my characters through. Fair warning though - I'm terrible at social media. Half my posts are just me rambling about hot fictional men or sharing pictures of my cat "helping" me write. (She thinks walking across my keyboard counts as co-authoring.)

To my readers: thank you for diving into these messy, complicated love stories with me. Your messages about staying up all night to finish a book or falling in love with characters you wanted to hate? They make all the late-night writing sessions worth it. We're in this together, exploring the beautiful chaos of love in all its forms.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some characters to torment... I mean, help find their happily ever after. (Same thing, right?)
