My Works Hi, I’m Julie Ciccarelli. I craft mystery and romance novels as well as being an artisan jeweler working with silver and gemstones. The first book in my Gemstone Mysteries is Facets of Murder, a puzzle that involves a fabulous set of emerald jewelry from Renaissance Spain. The first book in my Take Flight contemporary romance trilogy follows the rebirth of a female assassin. Book Two in the Gemstone Mysteries revolves around a ruby and diamond Art Deco ring.
