It’s taken longer than I’d originally planned, but Hollywood Romance will officially be out on the 5 April 2024!

I’d originally planned to release it in the summer of 2022, but I was just too burned out from writing Hollywood Heartbreak. It was a really emotionally challenging and draining book to work on.

Hollywood Romance was the opposite. It’s been a remedy to me during challenging times.

It’s also been a way for me to project some of the struggles I went through when working on Hollywood Heartbreak, and find a way to the other side.

You’ll notice similar threads between this and The Poltergeist’s Ship as I was working on them in parallel while coming out of creative burnout.

I won’t say any more than that because of spoilers, but just know that once Hollywood Romance is done, Afterlife Calls will be my priority.

(With a side of poetry maybe…)

In the early days of the What Happens in Hollywood Universe, I worked on nonfiction books between every couple of novels. I’ve stopped writing nonfiction (although I still do client work) and I think that had an impact on my ability to write.

Plus I set out to challenge myself with The Witch’s Sacrifice and The Mean Girl’s Murder. And I did.

But when you combine challenging yourself creatively and emotionally…

…you get creative burnout.

Anyway.

I’m BACK now.

I’m not sure how many more books I’ll publish this year.

What I can tell you is that you’ll get at least two: Hollywood Romance and The Poltergeist’s Ship.

And maybe the seventh Afterlife Calls book, The Dead Man’s Blood. I tried to edit it while Hollywood Romance was with the beta readers but I was too distracted by the new characters and just binge read it instead ????

So take that as a good sign.

But anyway, back to Tate and Jack.

Here it is: the cover of Hollywood Romance!

And here’s the blurb:

Can their love – and careers – survive Trinity’s final act of revenge?

Tate

My ex-best friend is dead. But she’s still trying to ruin my life.

Her tell-all memoir is about to be published. And it risks revealing all my secrets. Everything I’ve spent twenty years trying to hide. Could her book kill the career I’ve spent my whole life building?

My reputation might be in ruins, but my relationship is stronger than ever.

But after everything Jack and I have been through, am I really ready to spend the rest of my life with him?

Jack

Everyone around me is falling apart. For the first time ever, I have to be the strong one.

That stupid memoir is threatening the careers and livelihoods of everyone I love. But what can I do?

Can I stay strong for Tate as her dream falls apart?

And after all the mistakes I’ve made, how can I show her I’ve really changed?

Join Tate and Jack for the final instalment of their rollercoaster romance. It’s full of moments to make you swoon, swear, and smile. And it’s a guaranteed happy ever after. Once Trinity has had her revenge.
