“Would you die for her?'
I almost stopped breathing.
I could feel his eyes on me.
'I do. Every day.”
― Emblaze
I almost stopped breathing.
I could feel his eyes on me.
'I do. Every day.”
― Emblaze
“Love will kill us all." He said sadly. "First it makes us lie furiously so we can be what me must in order to appear deserving. Then, it tears us apart with raw truth. Whether we are man, exile or angel - It doesn't matter. For us all, the nature of truth is unforgiving.”

(I haven't published yet)
Thank you so much Jessica for writing sooo many amazing books which inspire all of us!! Your writing is amazing and your story lines you create are unbelievable and addictive! Thank you so much!!! I cannot wait till a Corruption! I saw the cover and I adore it! Thank you again for writing! I hope to meet you someday! You are an inspiration to many people (including me :)Thank you again! From a reader who won't stop reading (your books!)
Hey, Jessica the other day i picked up between the lives again and remembered what an amazing read it was but, its wasn't enough. WE NEED MORE. I NEED MORE.Have you thought about writing a novel from Both Ethan (that practiced medicine) and Ethan ( Sabine's brothers friend) perspective with a continuation of what happens after between the lives end...
PLEASE GET BACK TO ME :)
Thank you for accepting my friend request! You're one of my favourite authors, I love you! I've reviewed some of your books on my blog if you would like to see, www.norabay.blogspot.com. xoxo
Hiya, I just read the synopsis of Disruption, it sounds amazing! Do u know when it will come out in the UK? We are always the last:( I really cannot wait to read it!

LOL, not sworn to secrecy (that I know of;) And, yes, ONE PAST MIDNIGHT is in fact the American edition of BETWEEN THE LIVES.
Quick question, because I am a curious soul and I like to plan ahead.. Is "One Past Midnight" the American version of "Between the Lives"? Or is it a new book?OR are you sworn to secrecy about everything?
Got to say you're one of my top 5 fave Authors. CANNOT wait for Empower. I know I'm going to be buying that book the second the stores open!
Hi Jessica!I just have a quick query as to when the blurb/summary will be out on your latest book, Empower?
I am such a great fan of your work, and the fans and I are very interested as to when we will get to read the blurb. In fact, I think I may have fallen in love with Lincoln even more than Violet has...which isn't quite possible seeing as how they're soul mates, haha.
Congratulations on finishing a series, and hopefully there are more to come.
Kind regards,
Laura
Dear JessicaI wasn't sure what I thought when I picked up a trial copy of the first two chapters on my kindle. Not feeling well this morning I decided to take a doona day and with nothing to lose I jumped into Between the Lives. Jessica, this is pure literary genius! I have not read something this good in ages and I mean ages. Sabine's story rocked me to my core and I spent the best part of the final quarter with tears slipping down my cheeks. This was not just a book that I read but pure genius on the page which moved me from feeling unwell to experiencing everything along with Sabine. The beautifully crafted plot line kept me guessing at points and I found myself in Sabine's shoes again wondering if she truly was crazy. But that ending, oh that ending, what else can I say? After only a few hours the entire story had unfolded as the sun crept across the skyline and I realised that by 4.40pm I still hadn't had a shower, needless to say that upon finishing I found my tears welling with the water in a state. I was left with no motivation but an overwhelming feeling of hope. Thank you Jessica, thank you so much for giving me what I needed so desperately but never knew.
Your devoted reader

Oh. My. Goodness. Between The Lives is one of the most unique, emotion invoking books I have read in a long time. I can't believe you only took 2 months to write it! Thankyou for such an amazing, thought provoking story, I know it is a standalone but I hope that changes!PS - For some reason I was suspicious of Lucas from the start... I think he may 'Shift' as well ;)
PPS - The whole way through I was thinking how good this would be as a movie. I hope it catches the right persons eye one day...

Thanks so much! If you are in the US, the reason your library only has the first two is that book 3 only comes out next week! Hopefully it will be in soon (and you'll enjoy it!). Chat soon, Jess

Jackson Godspeed is amazing wrote: "Entice was super good! When does Emblaze come out in the United states?"March 2013!
Dear Jess, I finished Endless a while back and didn't have the chance to say:
OMG I LOVE THIS BOOK SOO MUCH AND I WAS CRYING FOR LIKE THE LAST 10 CHAPTERS!!! Now I hear it's going to be a t.v sereis???? OMG I CANNOT WAIT!!! I am sooo excited! I had a dream abou tphoenix the other night, I think he's watching over me! ^_^
I can't wait until number 5 comes out and I have already added it to Goodreads!

Just casually dying after finishing Endless. I am in the biggest book hangover mode ever! EVERYTHING reminds me of the books! I can't function!! Gahhh! Please tell me I don't have to wait forever till the next one!
Also, I really hope that they do your television show thing right and don't massacre your beautiful books!
My poor little broken heart :'( Phoenix :'( JUST EVERYTHING! :'( :'(
Thank you for... well just everything!
Thanks for the friendship. I read and enjoyed Embrace - and have sold quite a few of them in the Indie bookstore where I work. Will have to make sure to bring in Entice now.Have a great weekend.
Hi Jessica, Just wanted to let you know, I just finished reading Endless (I got the first three book for my Birthday in June and finished them all in a week :) ) Loved Loved Loved Endless :) Didn't want it to finish :) Are you writing anymore in this series? Would love to see Violet go back to Linc, before he gets a new partner :). Have you got anymore other books in the pipeline? Can't get enough of your books and your style of writing, felt like I was living the story along with the characters (a good distraction from my uni course hehehe :)Thank you so much fr your books :) xxoo

I just want to say one more time thank you for writing such a massive series! Also another warm welcome for giving me the chance to win the twitter giveway with the totebag,ENTICE&EMBRACE too.. Such small things to someone but quite big to me to make my day and to enlight my mood (consider the fact with the events in the 4th book) Cant wait to see what you got for us in the next book!
Talk to you soon!

Hi Maria,
Great message, and don't worry - I love a bit of good stalking! Thank you so much for your very kind words, they really are appreciated. I totally understand your thoughts on Endless, it left me pretty drained too!
Jess xx
Dear JessicaI feel like a stalker. I dont know how many times i have add a comment to your profile but after reading the 4th book I just had to add one more last and then i will pause and sit in the corner... YOU ARE ONE OF MY FAVOURITE AUTHORS LIST E.V.E.R I know it sounds cheesy but i just had to say it out loud...I finished yesterday the Endless which left me totally broken and devastated emotionally...I have no idea how you manage to write it but i was personally crying the last 10 (yes 10!) chapters.. All in all I cant wait for the next book please please (i beg you)hurray up!!!
Much love
Maria

Are you rewriting for digital copy?"Hi Vicki, Sorry it can be a bit confusing! I was first published in Australia so the books came out there first. In the US only Embrace and Entice have been released. Emblaze and Endless will follow soon! Hope this helps.

I am a huge fan of the Embrace series. They are my go-to books for being in my happy place. It is the series I recommend to everyone who asks for a recommendation.
On your official website, you have some playlists that inspired your books. I was wondering if you could share the songs that inspired Lincoln's character and his love for Violet.
Thank you for blessing the world with such a beautiful series. :)
