I hoped to touch readers with this story. I hoped they’d give it a chance, but I was prepared that maybe many wouldn’t. I never anticipated I would get this kind of reaction. The love and acceptance of THE FORBIDDEN has truly floored me. I’m being inundated with messages from women who have read it and totally get it. Messages from women who said they would never have picked it up had they known what the forbidden was, but are so glad that they did. Women who were adamant about their feelings on the subject matter, but now are looking at it in a different light. Apparently, I’m leaving many book hangovers in my wake, and I can’t be sorry for that. THE FORBIDDEN was never going to be an easy read. It definitely wasn’t easy to write. And it most certainly wasn’t easy to send it out into the world. Thank you for embracing it.
So if you loved Jack & Annie’s story, please share it with your friends. I stepped outside of my comfort zone, and I want as many women as possible to read a different side of something that is traditionally deemed unacceptable.
I believe in my words, and I’m so happy many of you do, too.
Thank you so, SO much
