New Book - January 16th!
Hi everyone! I’m super-excited to share that I have a new book coming out. The next installment in the Westside series, Lost to You will be out on January 16th. But even if you haven’t read the other two books in the series, this one can be read as a stand-alone novel. So check it out!
This is Phillip’s story. He might be the most talented member of Westside, but too many demons from his past have haunted him for most of his life, and after self-medicating to hide from the pain, he hits a point where he could lose everything. His only choice is to get sober and stay there.
If you read the first two books in this series, you briefly met Phillip in Lost in Wonderland, and then you got a more detailed glimpse into how bad his addiction had become in Lost Chances. You also know that after making a series of mistakes that affected the band, he vowed to stay sober. But what you don’t know is that he broke that vow almost as soon as their last tour was over.
Lost to You starts with Phillip leaving rehab for a second time, swearing that this time it’s going to stick. He’s not going back. But he’s been battling his past for too long, and he knows better than anyone that the desire to get lost instead of face reality can pull him under before he realizes it’s even happening. And going back on a worldwide tour where temptations are everywhere won’t exactly be easy. But he’s survived this long, and he’s not going to lose everything he’s worked for, that he loves, without a fight.
In Lost Chances, you were introduced to Sabrina Tyler, a former pop star who got heavy into drugs and fell hard again and again – and in some very public ways. She’s been sober for a few years, and after a successful comeback album, her career is taking off again. She’s also starting to feel like she has control over her life for the first time in years. So of course turmoil has to be right around the corner.
When she’s asked to be the opening act for Westside, and then when Westside’s manager goes a step further and asks her to sponsor Phillip and help him stay sober, her first instinct is to say no. But knowing what Phillip is facing and how hard it could be for him to not succumb to the urge to use has her agreeing to help him. The only problem is Phillip doesn’t want to be helped.
Lost to You is an emotional journey of two people who have more in common than they ever realized. And when you’re fighting to keep your sanity, having someone in your corner who knows what that’s like is more important than ever – if you’re willing to trust them and let them in.
I love this book and how it turned out. When I originally thought of telling Phillip’s story I had no idea it would end up the way it did. But I’m so happy with the final product, and I can’t wait for you to read it. So check it out on January 16th on Amazon and Smashwords.com; all other eReaders to follow shortly.
Happy reading!
