The Girls of Good Fortune: A Novel:
"What a fun book! It starts off really strong with the hidden romance, Celia’s family and the drama of the fallout. Celia was such a compelling protagonist and I enjoyed the supporting characters (especially Marie and Lettie!). There are so many inter"

Hi there! Sorry for my slow reply, as I've been deep in a writing cave while on deadline. EVERY TIME WE SAY GOODBYE was the UK version of my second novel, BRIDGE OF SCARLET LEAVES. To my knowledge, it was published strictly as a full-length novel. Th

“A thousand words will not leave so deep an impression as one deed.” —Henrik Ibsen
Almost exactly four years since the publication of SOLD ON A MONDAY, it’s such a treat now to revisit these passages and share some behind-the-scenes thoughts—like my very own Director’s Commentary. :)

For more information about SOLD ON A MONDAY, as well as my fall 2022 releases, THE WAYS WE HIDE (out now!) and WHEN WE HAD WINGS (coming 10/18), I hope you’ll swing by my website, where you’ll also find fantastic new book-club additions, plus details about my 15-state tour. Indeed, it’s sure to be as insane as it sounds. But hopefully it also means I’ll have the chance to meet many of my readers, like you, on the road very soon!
