I have so much gratitude! Never in a thousand years did I think I’d be on the USA Today Bestseller List a day after launch!

Thank you to all the readers and bookstagrammers who preordered a copy. And, thank you to every independent bookstore that embraced CLOSE CALL.

Excited to share my conversation with Lindsay Czarniak on her podcast Things No One Tells You! We talked about leaving TV behind, writing CLOSE CALL, and all the twists and turns in between. Such a joy to chat about this wild ride. 🩷
