Hi All,


Earlier this week, I had the opportunity to chat with readers during a live virtual event to celebrate the recent paperback release of Wish You Were Here. I realized how much I still enjoy sharing what that healing writing process was like for me, so many months later, and I’m thrilled that the story continues to be equally therapeutic for readers. It’s fascinating to hear what resonates (or maybe not so much!) with readers and I’m grateful that this is a book that continues to be recommended by so many. I recently shared some notes on passages from Wish You Were Here on Goodreads, and you can find those here.

 

I’m currently writing this while vacationing with Tim for the week and am looking forward to some down time after a few crazy, jam-packed months. I hope that you all have an opportunity to relax and restore a bit this summer, however you can. Stay tuned for a special e-mail from me mid-month, with information about where you can purchase a signed edition of Mad Honey, along with…. BOOK TOUR INFORMATION! Yes, Jenny Finney Boylan and I are hitting the road (and doing a virtual event for those who may not be able to attend one in-person) and we cannot wait to chat all things Mad Honey with you!


XO,

Jodi

Have you added Mad Honey to your Goodreads shelf?


Olivia McAfee knows what it feels like to start over. Her picture-perfect life—living in Boston, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon, raising a beautiful son, Asher—was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown, living in the house she grew up in, and taking over her father's beekeeping business.

Lily Campanello is familiar with do-overs, too. When she and her mom relocate to Adams, New Hampshire, for her final year of high school, they both hope it will be a fresh start.
And for just a short while, these new beginnings are exactly what Olivia and Lily need. Their paths cross when Asher falls for the new girl in school, and Lily can’t help but fall for him, too. With Ash, she feels happy for the first time. Yet at times, she wonders if she can she trust him completely . . .

Then one day, Olivia receives a phone call: Lily is dead, and Asher is being questioned by the police. Olivia is adamant that her son is innocent. But she would be lying if she didn’t acknowledge the flashes of his father’s temper in him, and as the case against him unfolds, she realizes he’s hidden more than he’s shared with her.

Mad Honey is a riveting novel of suspense, an unforgettable love story, and a moving and powerful exploration of the secrets we keep and the risks we take in order to become ourselves.

On sale:
US/CA - October 4
AU/NZ - October 5
UK - November 15

Margot and James are broken up—for good this time. James made sure of it when he dropped the bomb on Margot: that he doesn’t want kids, ever.

Then, on the biggest morning of his life, James—an ambitious lawyer at a high-powered firm—wakes up pregnant. He realizes with dread that he is part of a recent epidemic of men suddenly and inexplicably becoming pregnant. His condition obvious to the higher-ups, James is denied the promotion he was expecting, sending him reeling.

Meanwhile, Margot, a social worker, must handle the influx of desperate, pregnant teenage boys suddenly seeking her help. When she receives a call from James with the same problem, the challenge of navigating post-Roe America hits even closer to home.
