Congratulations to Mia Hutchinson-Shaw, whose richly textured and sympathetic narration of the HOMEMAKER audiobook has been awarded an Earphones Award from @audiofilemagazine.bsky.social! We couldn't agree more with their assessment of Mia's amazing work bringing Prairie Nightingale to life. ❤️

A little Monday-morning love for Prairie from recent readers... If you haven't started the series yet, what are you waiting for? And if you read HOMEMAKER and loved it, recommend it to a friend! :-)

If you read EVERYONE I KISSED SINCE YOU GOT FAMOUS, you might remember Sam, the hot lawyer, and Robin, his girlfriend who helps Wil and Katie settle their bet about their high school teacher.

Anyone looking for a nonfiction rec, I enjoyed @ejeancarroll.bsky.social's account of her civil suits against Trimp. Carroll's is a vivid & distinctive voice, w/humor & insight that gains powerful momentum. It's an unusual book in such a good way.

You’ve heard about the tantrums, the seething, the storming out of court, yes. But what about E. Jean’s side of the story? What about the flight suits, the bottle of green Chartreuse, and the bob?

The subject line of this morning's @shelf-awareness.com newsletter is "tender, loving spies" — a nod to IF I TOLD YOU, I'D HAVE TO KISS YOU "cleverly turning many tropes of the espionage genre on their heads." Thrilled! shelf-awareness.com/sar-issue.ht...

Happy release day to our sapphic spies, Yardley and KC! This book is an unapologetic love poem to hyperbole, drama-drama, costumes and accents, and most of all to learning *how* to love the woman you fell for at first sight. Happy reading, darlings! read.macmillan.com/lp/if-i-told...

It’s Prairie Nightingale’s book birthday today, and our feelings are big and difficult to describe, so here is a video with actual real things that alive humans said about HOMEMAKER, which is a dream come true for real

You haven't lived until you've heard Mia Hutchinson-Shaw say "a few Coach bags" in her Wisconsin accent. Her acting is divine, and it really makes HOMEMAKER shine. @anniemare.bsky.social & I have Netgalley widgets for audio review copies, so if you're interested, hit us up

EEP, just three weeks until our darling Yardley Whitmer & KC Nolan hit bookshelves everywhere & y'all learn just how absolutely dumb these characters can be about love while also being crackerjack spies

Annie & I are dying over how many readers are finding and loving our new Prairie Nightingale series. This book was on submission a long time and went through so many "almosts" (& sooo many rejections) to get to this moment of having over 1,000 ratings & 4.3 / 5 stars — it's everything, everything.

Making the main problem of HP inspired books that they’re fanfic to published, and that it will cause legal problems with the copyright holder lol, is really something.

Happy book day to us!!! 🧜‍♀️

I have fallen down on every front promoting this, because life has been... life and I'm barely clinging to a cliff's edge by my broken fingernails over here.

But we wrote a book, and it's coming out, and I love Aleksi, Naia, and Einar. 💓

I hope y'all love them too!
