Goodbye is so much harder the second time around...
The publication date of the first book in my Boys of Summer Trilogy - Nobody But Him – is inching closer and closer.
It's out on October 1st through Harlequin. I loved writing it and I hope it will make you laugh and cry and wish you could come and hang out in the sleepy coastal town I’ve created on South Australia’s gorgeous Fleurieu Peninsula – Middle Point.
Nobody But Him is the story of Julia Jones, who left Middle Point at eighteen with a head full of grand plans for an exciting life that didn’t involve that small town, a main street with one pub or a particular boy named Ryan Blackburn.
But fifteen years and a lifetime later, she’s forced to put her big city life on hold when she heads home to finalise her mother’s estate. Which is where she runs smack bang into the town’s new champion. Ry.
The sensible thing to do? Stay the hell away from him and head back to Melbourne as fast as her stilettos can carry her. But Julia finds his offer of a helping hand and a hot body too delicious to refuse and dives into an I’ll think about it tomorrow fling.
What she doesn’t realize is that tomorrow has a way of sneaking up, and that saying goodbye to her home town – and to Ry – is so much harder the second time around.
I won’t fulfil my dream of being an author without readers, so I’ve made a special point
to thank everyone who reads the book.
Here’s a snippet from my Dear Reader message:
“I may be a writer, but I’m also a reader, and I know how hard it can be to find some precious time to escape into reading, so thank you from the bottom of my heart for choosing Nobody But Him. The fact that you are holding a book in your hands with my name on the cover is still a miracle to me. The fact that you want to read it? A double bonus!”
