After months and months of waiting, I am ridiculously pleased to announce the title of my next adult romance:

Looking For Love in All the Haunted Places releases May 21, 2024!

Synopsis:

Lucky Hart has a special affinity for the supernatural but almost no one takes parapsychology seriously. She’s estranged from her family, lost her friends, and has been rejected from graduate school. Twice. But her big break finally arrives when she gets insider info about a troubled production company. Every actor on their new show mysteriously quits after spending three nights inside Hennessee House, an old Victorian with a notorious reputation.

After scheming her way onto the show to investigate, Lucky meets Maverick Phillips and chemistry instantly crackles between them. He tempts her in ways no one ever has, challenging and supporting her, and making her finally feel seen. Their connection is so palpable everyone notices it–including Hennessee House.

Now Lucky and Maverick’s relationship has a challenger: the lonely, sentient house desperate for her undivided attention. As love begins to clash with career, Lucky refuses to choose one over the other because everyone deserves a happily ever after, even houses with haunted hearts. But when all her plans begin backfiring one-by-one, she realizes that if she wants to have it all?

She’ll have to risk everything.

I’m so deliriously happy with this book–you don’t even know. Well, if you’ve read my 2023 recap blog posts you might. I’ve talked about the writing process for this one quite a bit.

This book is my love letter to characters like Carrie White from Carrie, Annie from Rose Red, the ambitious girls from The Craft, and to my alt-Black babes–all who only ever wanted to be seen, respected, and loved as they are.

It’s also a thank you to Ghostbusters, specifically for the characters Ray Stantz and Winston Zeddemore.

Soon, I’ll have a cover to share, and be able to go more in depth about the book but for now here are some of its features:

• Stars an unconventional researcher and an irresistible writer who pair up to bring down a very unusual haunted house.
• There are no ghosts! NONE! Not even one!
• All roads (plot lines) lead to romance, one way or another.
• Spooky shenanigans of the investigable kind.
• It’s deeply and wholeheartedly romantic, IMO.
• A N G S T & L O N G I N G
• “Places” is a deliberate choice and plural for a reason.

Looking For Love in All the Haunted Places is now available for preorder.
