Just 3 more weeks until EVERLASTING , the 6th & final installment in THE IMMORTALS series is released, but all you have to do to get as sneak peek at chapters 1 - 4, is become a fan of THE IMMORTALS facebook page, by clicking HERE!
Speaking of EVERLASTING, RT magazine, gave it 4 stars saying:
"Noël's long-awaited conclusion to her Immortals series delivers, with a rich and satisfying plot, a complete ending and a healthy mix of wisdom and magic.

FOREVER SUMMER in stores now!!!

Summer. A break from the burdens of school. Deep tans, deeper thoughts. Far away from the everyday. Closer to making dreams come true...What does summer mean to you? For the two teenage girls in these two unforgettable novels, summer means being torn away from the familiar and finding new friends. A new place in the world. A new sense of self. And maybe even new love along the way...
Forever Summer: When you're having the time of your life, you never want it to end.
Hey Everyone-
I'm so excited to announce that FOREVER SUMMER , a special edition 2-in-1 reissue of LAGUNA COVE & CRUEL SUMMER is in stores now! Just looking at the cover makes me dream of long, lazy days on the beach--and I hope you enjoy reading these stories as much as I enjoyed writing them!
For your chance at a free copy, check out the interview I did HERE --be sure to read all the way to the bottom where they've posted the rules.



And speaking of reissues, SAVING ZOE , just got a nice review over at Fresh Fiction, which you can read HERE.
And, for those of you interested in signed copies, I'll be appearing this coming weekend at the LA Times Festival of Books - held this year on the USC Campus in LA! My schedule follows below--I really hope to see you there!
