The Crash is out tomorrow! (And other updates!)

It’s hard to believe (especially given the turmoil of the last couple of years) that my ninth novel is out tomorrow! The Crash is probably one of my most ambitious story lines and is about the before and after involved with heart transplants… Two Hearts. Four Lives. One Epic Love Story!

It’s available exclusively on Amazon this time as it’s part of Kindle Unlimited!

There’s also exciting news elsewhere for my other books!

The Missing Piece is being published as Gebrochene Herzen schlagen gleich (translates as Broken Hearts beat the same) over in Germany in June! And later on in the year, The Day that Changed Everything, is being published in Hungary. That along with The Girl Who Couldn’t Leave hitting the top 100 in both the UK and US this weekend means there’s been lots of good news in amongst the days at the laptop!

Love & light,

You can imagine my delight when I discovered there was more than one book and shortlist to celebrate!

With that amazing news, it’s a delight to see that book becoming available in more languages! It’s now out in Estonia and is due out in Germany in August! It’s so nice that at a time when we’re in lockdown and limited to where we can go, that my words are still managing to go on journeys. Here are the Estonian and German covers…

I’m looking forward to celebrating the success of all the writers on Monday and celebrating with my family after all their support.

Fingers crossed!

A New Year: Changes and News!

Gosh, what a roller coaster of a year we’ve been having. Just as things seem to be improving, we get another curve ball. Since the beginning of this year I’ve had my girls at home. Fortunately this time they are being taught remotely so with some help from their nan, I’ve been managing to get on with some work. I’m glad to say that I’ve managed to get the revisions in for my June release and I’ll be able to share more details about that next month.

The shortlist for the RNA shorter romantic novel award

In the meantime I have news about my other books of the best kind! First up, The Day that Changed Everything has been shortlisted for the RNA awards Shorter Novel category. This is such an honour and something I’ve always hoped would happen. As you can imagine, receiving this news in the year we’re having has been an amazing boost. The winners will be announced in an online event on the 8th March so I really have to hope I don’t muck up the DIY haircut I need.

The new cover for The Missing Piece

Since my last post, The Missing Piece underwent a makeover (I’m not jealous!) and now has a gorgeous new cover. Not only that, I’ve also signed an audio deal with WFHowes so it will be coming out in audiobook later this year. It really has been quite the few months and I’m so glad I get to share another book with you later this year.

Love and light, Catherine xx

The Missing Piece and other updates

Time is flying by recently. I think with my girls back at school, I’m having to cram what I can in to play catch-up. Unbelievably it’s only two weeks until The Missing Piece is published and I’m delighted to say it is also on Netgalley and getting great early reviews. I really hope while we’re all going through a period of missing something this book can help fill the gap for a few hours.

In other book related news, I’m delighted to be able to say that 99 Days With You has sold in Germany and Estonia taking the number of languages to 6! This is truly something I never expected to see happen in my lifetime and I’m so thankful.

I plan to do a Facebook Live at some point on publication day so please give my page a like if you haven’t already.

I also wanted to send a thank you to all the readers who’ve discovered my work this year. It has been a huge blessing and made a difficult year easier to see not only my current, but my older titles doing so well and dancing their way up the charts. What a year it is proving to be in more ways than one!

Love and light,

Catherine
