Monica Murphy Hi!

I wasn't sure if I would write a book for Beck, but I think I will. He deserves one since he's a Callahan too. :)
Monica Murphy Hi! Great question! The possibility is there that I will give Caleb and Baylee a book. Not sure when, but I'm leaning toward writing their story. I think it would be an interesting one to explore...❤️
Monica Murphy Hi!

Yes, I have a few ❤️ If you read any of the books from my new series, The Callahans, I think a few of those male characters have serious Jordan Tuttle vibes. And thank you for loving Tuttle!!!
This question contains spoilers... (view spoiler)
Monica Murphy Sorry it took me so long to answer this! Hmmm, I keep thinking about going back to the Friends world and writing about them. There are some things that need to be wrapped up (like Ryan and Olivia and Dustin and Cannon and Em and even Eli!). Maybe I will go back someday... xo
Monica Murphy I'm so sorry I missed this question! Unfortunately, the Sisters in Love (Fowler Sisters) series is complete at three books. I loved those sisters too! Especially Rose. :)
Monica Murphy Chelsea, negative reviews are no fun but you do need to remember this: not everyone has the same taste. You can't make everyone happy. So don't let those negative reviews get you down. They come with the territory. :)
Monica Murphy Hi Breanna!

I'm so glad you love Amanda and Jordan. I love them too. :) As of right now, I'm not working on any books for the Friends series but that doesn't mean I'm done. I might revisit the series someday...
Monica Murphy Amy! How did I miss your question? Thank you for the kind words - The Rules books do happen after FIVE DAYS. I'm not sure if I'm going to write books about the other players on Drew and Wade's team but my motto is never say never so...we shall see. :)
Monica Murphy Oh yes you are, Vanessa! FOREVER is coming out April 4th and it is the conclusion to Amanda and Jordan Tuttle's story. :)
Monica Murphy Such a hard question! I have a bunch, but one of my favorites is Cam and Katie from INSTANT ATTRACTION by Jill Shalvis. Their romance is so fabulous. I am a huge Jill Shalvis fan and this is one of my all time favorite books. Cam is so grumpy and resistant...yet he can't resist Katie! I think it's time for a re-read....
Monica Murphy Hi Chelsea,

Thanks for the sweet words. I say you've jumped the first major hurdle - you actually finished the book. Congratulations! Now go write another one. That was the realization I needed when I first started writing. When I finished my first book (and it was awful, I can say that now), I thought to myself, "Hey I can DO this." And that's the most important thing. So go ahead and write another book. Keep going, keep writing, keep learning. Writers can always learn more and grow - it's a never ending process.

Good luck to you! xo
Monica Murphy “Love is a smoke and is made with the fume of sighs." -- Shakespeare, Romeo & Juliet

I adore this quote and find it so apt in its description of love. Shakespeare is the king of angsty love. I adored this quote so much I included it in my book One Week Girlfriend. <3
Monica Murphy Hi Cynthia,

I do think people have soul mates, someone who is perfect for them. But do we always find our soul mates? Probably not. Do we have the chance at love many times over - can we have more than one person who is perfect for us? Yes. My husband is such a great guy. I feel lucky that I found him. I love him with all of my heart. But was he my first love? No. And that's okay. :)
Monica Murphy Hi Paola!

Thank you for the sweet words. I am considering writing more in The Rules series but if I do, nothing will come out until late this year or early 2017. I think Gabe's sister Sydney deserves a story. And it's always fun to revisit the rest of the gang. I'd love to go back into Shep & Jade's world... ;)
Monica Murphy Hi Tanya! Thank you for the kind words regarding NEVER TEAR US APART - I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I'm not sure when the ARC for NEVER LET YOU GO will be available, as I just turned in the copy edits about a week ago. Hopefully soon though!
Monica Murphy Erica! You can email me at missmonicamurphy@gmail.com - sorry my website wasn't loading! xoxo
