Is this real life?
February marks two years exactly.
Two years since I got this crazy idea in my head about a lonely widow and the letter she refuses to read from her dead husband.
Two years since I secretly sat down and finally began writing down the words that refused sit dormant any longer. I never expected anything from that tiny moment, when I my fingers hit the keys and I dove into the world of Clare and Logan. I never expected anything extraordinary to ever happen to little old me.
But it did. So many wonderful, remarkable things.
Including this: I’m so excited to announce I’ve signed a two-book deal with Grand Central (Forever) for a new duet! The first book is entitled FORGETTING AUGUST and revolves around Everly Adams–a woman who, after moving on with her life, discovers the one one man who could destroy it has awoken from a two year long coma.
I’m in love with this story, and I cannot wait to share it with you.
Also, I’m so excited to announce some fun WITHIN THESE WALLS news! Jude and Lailah are going international! WTW will soon be translated into Italian and German! These are my first translations and I am so excited to see my words go global!
Crazy, right?!
I still find myself sitting here, looking at the original cover of WHEN YOU’RE READY, remembering that moment when I first typed the word “Prologue” and still can’t believe how much my life has changed since that moment.
Thank you to everyone who has helped me, believed in me and supported me. I could say thank you a million times over and it would never be enough.
BEYOND THESE WALLS is on its way, so stay tuned for the cover reveal and teasers! I hope you are ready for more Lailah and Jude!!
Much love,
JL
