November Update

This year has gone so fast! November was a bit of a mixed bag for me. I’ll start with the good news. I finished my standalone book! I went a little writing mad and wrote close to 50,000 words on it to make this draft finish at around 90,000 words. Not a bad size. This is a New Adult Dystopian Romance. I have a cover almost ready and that reveal will happen early January. It is called Revolution and I am hoping for a release towards the end of January. So I’ll have more news to share on that next month.

I also lost my Nanna on November 24th. I was very close with her and I am devastated. She loved reading and for much of my life I always remember her with a book by her side. She loved to read romance. She took a bad turn last year and that got me thinking about death and that is where the idea for Haunted Love came from. Even though it wasn’t a complete surprise, I still feel shocked that she is really gone. So a sad end for November.

I didn’t read as much this month either. I was too busy writing to get much in. But I did read two books from the same series. I highly recommend them (but they need to be read in order and from the beginning). Great action, adventure and a kickass heroine! Rylee is fantastic. Details below.

Hope everyone has a great end to the year. I have had great support throughout this year and found some truly wonderful readers/bloggers. I hope everyone will enjoy Revolution just as much. Thank you all for the support!


I will update again in January!

 Hey all!  Just a quick message to let you know that my facebook page is likely disappearing. Apparently my account isn't one they're going to keep running...? I don't really understand it. However, since I usually only get about 20 people who see any posts I make (out of the 1.7K who have liked my page) I don't really see the point in fighting it. It just means that any updates I have in the future will come through here, Instagram, and Goodreads.  Happy reading!  Jessica x

Thank You For Your Support!

Hey all! So, I had some grand plans to put up a post to speak about the final book in the In Midsummer series being released. I was going to speak about the series and send out my gratitude to all the readers who embraced these characters and this fictional town. It’s been my most successful series to date. But looking back I realized I never did. I didn’t even post about Loving Love releasing. I think this is what happens when I release so close together. I get burnt out! Four books in four months, and overall, eight books in ten-ish months were a huge undertaking for me. And they were all actually finished last year, so this year I’ve been on a bit of a writing hiatus. (I have still been writing, just not on any kind of schedule. Only when I feel like it. More info on that under the Coming Soon tab!)  So while I missed the boat on posting for Loving Love, I can still send out my gratitude to the readers who gave it a shot. I am so lucky that so many readers/bloggers embraced the In M

Audiobook Club

  Being a police officer in a small town doesn’t often offer up many surprises. Working the night shift means I rarely see or do much of anything that doesn’t involve a speeding vehicle, or a drunken rant. And, while quiet nights are better than deadly ones, it still takes some getting used to after living in a big city for years. So, I’m rather shocked when I pull over a driver and find the dirtiest audiobook playing from the car speakers. And, paint me intrigued when the hot driver struggles to get the enticing words to stop broadcasting to the entire street. The embarrassing encounter has us both lowering our guard, and I find myself a new friend, one who suggests we start our own audiobook club. Soon, we become more than just friends as we listen and fall into stories and new worlds together and, naturally, the sexy scenes we’re listening to become a blueprint for our own experiences to try … together. But, when life intrudes and our audiobook club breaks up, I’m left wondering if
