Someone suggested she try writing romance novels. She first began writing in her thirties and had trouble publishing her first three manuscripts. When she had her son, Peter and daughter, Alexandra, she decided to become a stay at home mom to raise her children. Janet Evanovich married her husband Pete in 1964. After graduating from South River High School she went on to attend Douglass College, part of Rutgers University. Although there is plenty of romance and comedy in the books, they are primarily modern mysteries with an outrageous cast of secondary characters that add down to earth humor.Įvanovich became the first in her family to attend college. The heroine, Stephanie Plum becomes a bounty hunter in her hometown of Trenton, New Jersey by bribing her pervert cousin Vinnie for a job after she is laid off as a lingerie buyer.
Each Plum book since that time has been named by a fan. After the third book in the series, Evanovich started running contests for her readers to suggest names for the next book. She later struck gold with her popular ‘Stephanie Plum’ Series – the twenty second book in the series, (‘Tricky Twenty Two’) will be released this November. Using the pen name Steffie Hall, she published her several short romance novels. She routinely appears on both the New York Times and Amazon Bestseller Lists and has a devoted following of readers. Janet Evanovich was born Janet Schneider on Apin South River, New Jersey.
