Book Three Coming Soon!


44 Book Three will be released on Valentine’s Day, just a few short weeks away. I already have the champagne cooling in the refrigerator :) and can’t wait to release the bubbles along with the book.
A HUGE thank you to all my readers – I’m so appreciative that you’ve taken time to immerse yourselves in the world of Abby and Company. I love writing the 44 series and will keep doing so beyond Book Three.
These characters have become so real to me lately that when I’m out doing errands around town, I’m sure I’ll bump into Abby at Riverbend Park practicing her dribbling or Kate drinking a cappuccino at Thump Coffee. It’s been an amazing experience on my end, and I want to thank you for coming along for the ride.
On a completely random note, late at night, after a long day of writing, I like to watch the Dead Files with Amy Allen. I know it’s a little goofy, but I think it’s super fun watching Amy walk through haunted houses and contact ghosts and spirits.  I’m hoping the show returns for another season.
Well, back to work on this mild, beautiful Sunday in Bend. I have plans for an ice-free walk later today, which is quite an amazing thing in late January around these parts.
Happy Sunday,
Jools

  4. Been a while since I have enjoyed a series like this. Love the story line! I'm a diehard Dean Koontz fan mainly because of the "well, It COULD happen" element in his books. You seem to have tapped into this also..keep up the good work!

  7. I have to say I couldn't put your book down after reading book 1 and continue on to book 2, which I finish last night. My schedule is so busy and didnt think I'll finish that quick but like I say I just couldnt put it down.

    I know what I'm going to be doing on Valentine's Day now.

Im sure ill have book 3 read in few days and was wondering how long I would have to wait if there is a book 4. I hated reading till I read your first 44 book now im hooked on reading Thank You so much for giving me the love to read again.

    1. Hi, Chell!
      Wow! I loved this...it means SO much that you are hooked on reading again because of 44...that's incredible and I'm thrilled to be a part of that!
      It takes me just over 2 months to write a book and 44 Book 4 will be out in the spring sometime (May probably). My plan is to keep writing up through Christmas and then see where the series is at that point...
      Happy reading and thanks so much for writing in!

  12. I have just finished book 3. I am really enjoying all these characters and the direction you're taking them. I was wondering if you already know where you're taking them in the final book or books? :) Just curious

    1. Hi, Sherry!
      Thanks SO much for the kind words!
      I had a pretty good idea about what I wanted to happen in Books 1-3 and the direction of the story and characters. But now, with Book 4, I'm finding that the characters are informing me as to where we are all going! I guess it's only fair ;) Fortunately we all have some time as there will be at least a few more books in the series. Great question and thanks for stopping by the blog!
      Hope you're having a great weekend~
