GIFTCHILD cover reveal!

Today I’m happy to present to you the cover of GIFTCHILD, my new contemporary YA novel, which will be out, possibly as soon as next week:


Release dates with indie books are a little rough–as I don’t control when the online store will actually post the book.  But it’ll be out for sure by December 1st, and probably sooner.  Stay tuned!

What’s it about?  Nice of you to ask!

Penny adores her best friend Rodney. He’s always there for her, and she knows they’d be the perfect couple—except that they’re still in high school, and she’s watched too many friends go through painful breakups. Besides, Penny has bigger things to worry about—like her mother, who desperately wants to have more children.

After an endless string of miscarriages and failed adoptions, Penny’s mother is ready to give up hope. But Penny has the perfect plan: if she gets pregnant, she can give her mother the baby she’s always wanted. Penny’s sure this is the right thing to do, but only after she sets her plan in motion does she realize that sex will change her relationship with Rodney—in ways that she never expected. And the more she tries to fix things for her mother, the more she risks losing everything she wants for herself.

All Penny wants is for the people she loves to be happy. So why isn’t anything going the way that she planned?

GIFTCHILD, Coming Soon!

Today I received the copy edit for my next novel, GIFTCHILD.  This means we’re just weeks away from the book finally being available.  The cover is nearly complete, and the back copy is in final revisions, and I’m so excited to share.  Of all the books I’ve written (and there are many), this one is my absolute favorite.  I hope you’ll love it as much as I do.

With indie publishing release dates are a bit sketchy, but I’m expecting to release the book near the first week of December.  But if you want to be sure not to miss it, please sign up for my newsletter.  I promise not to spam you, but you might also get the first look at the cover, before it’s released to the public.
