A little update on Within These Walls

Last Monday, Lailah and Jude’s story went live, and since then I have been flooded with emails and messages from readers who have fallen in love with these characters just as much as I have.

As readers are contacting me sharing their stories and love for WTW, the questions I hear over and over are: Are you going to write more and do we get a story about Roman.

I announced this yesterday on my Facebook page, but wanted to make sure the news reached as many people as possible, so here goes…

YES!  I do plan on writing a follow up book entitled Beyond These Walls which will be a continuation of Jude and Lailah’s story.  I had never planned on writing more after their epilogue, but in the last week or so this new plot line has solidified in my head and is speaking loudly so I feel it is something that needs to be shared.  I will warn you, the next part of the journey for these two will not be easy–Love never is.

On to Roman!  I am also planning a spin-off on Roman.  I don’t know if I’ve announced the title or not…His book, Behind Closed Door, will hopefully be coming out next summer and will be darker than the previous two in the series…because well, it’s Roman.

So there is my little announcement.  I also wanted to take a moment to thank each and every one of you who have purchased and devoured this book.  It was a scary one for me.  Stepping out of my series, doing something completely different–I had no idea how my readers would react and wow, I didn’t expect the warm and loving embrace I would find after I released my baby into your arms.

Thank you.
