Finding Gabriel Blurb & Release Date Reveal!
I am beyond ecstatic and humbled to announce the upcoming publication of Finding Gabriel, which will be released by Momentum Books/Pan Macmillan on August 27th! I’m so proud to be a part of their amazing, dedicated, and talented team–and I can't wait till we unleash Gabriel and Ariah’s tumultuous love story upon the world! :-)
Writing this novel was a deeply personal experience and one heck of an emotional rollercoaster. At times, the subject matter forced me into uncomfortable and often brutal territories–and the road to Gabriel and Ariah’s Happily Ever After is certainly paved with an abundance of loss, discovery, hope, and, of course, searing passion and relentless love.
Featuring a severely disfigured and misunderstood hero, a compassionate heroine who keeps a dagger a thrust away, and a truckload of political turmoil, it’ll appeal to Beauty and the Beast, The Phantom of the Opera, and Les Misérables fans. I welcome you to check out the blurb below, and grab the first sneak peek of Finding Gabriel. ♥
Colonel Gabriel de Laurent departed for the war intending to die.
After a decade of bloodstained battlegrounds while fighting in Napoleon’s army, Gabriel returns to the streets of Paris a shattered and haunted soul. Plagued by inner demons, he swallows the barrel of his flintlock pistol and pulls the trigger.
But fate has a different plan.
Ariah Larochelle is a survivor. Orphaned at twelve and victim to a devastating crime, she has learned to keep her back to walls and to trust no one. But when she finds a gravely injured soldier washed up on the River Seine, she’s moved by compassion. In spite of her reservations, she rescues him from the icy water and brings him into her home.
Now scarred inside and out, Gabriel discovers a kindred spirit in Ariah – and feelings he imagined lost forever reawaken as he observes her strength in the face of adversity. But when Ariah’s own lethal secrets unfold, their new love is threatened by ancient ghosts. Can Gabriel and Ariah find hope in the wreckage of their pasts – or will the cycle of history repeat again?
Perfect for fans of Gaelen Foley’s Lord of Ice and Judith James’s Broken Wing, Finding Gabriel features all the dark romance, searing passion, and historical intrigue of The Phantom of the Opera and Les Misérables.

A special and heartfelt shout-out to the ridiculously talented Jennifer Quinlan, who edited Finding Gabriel during it's early stages. She truly allowed the story and characters to reach their true potential, and I'm so grateful to have found her! Aspiring and experienced writers alike: please visit her website, Historical Editorial. I really can't recommend her services enough.
Much ♥ and happy reading!
