Happy New Year from Lauren and Alexander!

This year, my new year messages will be from the hero and heroine of The First Time We Met, which really is coming very soon from Penguin.

From Lauren Cusack: may your 2014 be awesome and bring you happiness, health, creativity & a brooding Brit aristo with more issues than Time magazine!!

Impeccably polite message from Alexander Hunt: Do I really have to do this? Wtf is Twitter anyway? Don’t people have actual lives? Oh, OK, if I absolutely have to: Of course, I don’t do social networking, but Ms Cusack told me to wish you a Happy New Year or she’ll cut off the family jewels and may never sh*g me again. I wouldn’t like that very much…

(Lauren: That’s more than 140 characters, Alexander…)

From me: I’ve had an incredible 2013, more than I could ever have dreamed of andf I wish you all a fabulous 2014. I’ll be back shortly with a some suprising news about the cover of the book…
