I’m thrilled to announce my latest—and until now Super Secret—project, SUGAR (Skyhorse Publishing, October 2013), a contemporary erotic romance with the incomparable Jenna Jameson!
SUGAR will be Jenna’s fiction debut, and I’m over-the-moon honored to partner with her in bringing her sexy and soulful story to readers.
SUGAR is a first for me as well: my hard cover debut!
The project is also my first teaming with another author, and I’ll admit I wasn’t quite certain what to expect. Writing is, by its very nature, a solitary profession. What would it be like to invite another writer into my Writing Cave? What would it be like to be a guest in hers? I’m happy to report the experience has been A+++ on all levels, an uncanny meeting of complementary minds, talents, and life experiences.
But then it’s no surprise that Jenna can bring the sexy and then some! Her 2010 memoir, HOW TO MAKE LOVE LIKE A PORN STAR, sold a quarter of a million copies and hit the New York Times bestseller list.
So what’s SUGAR about?
As my longtime readers will attest, second chances are a recurring theme in all my books, contemporary and historical, yet another reason I am so jazzed about SUGAR.
Like Jenna, the heroine of SUGAR is a former porn star, a smart, savvy, strong woman who’s taken total charge of her career and has now decided to refocus her priorities on her personal life. Fleeing the bright lights and big city of Los Angeles, she moves to Manhattan to reinvent herself. In doing so, she gets more than she bargained for—a lot more.
Cover reveal—trust me, it’s g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s and smokin’ hot—and additional details about the book coming soon!

Congratulations Hope! I guess this means that you will not only be going on a book tour, but possibly the morning talk shows! Say hello to Kelly and Michael for me! And Ellen and the gals at the View and The Talk.
Congratulations! Definitely a sweet deal. Can’t wait for October. And do let us know when the cover is ready for debut.
Thanks, Maria! I can’t wait either. 🙂
LOL, Elizabeth. I definitely have my special signing pen at the ready just in case. Deets on NYC and LA signings coming soon. For now, we’re focused on finishing the book.
I’m thrilled over this new adventure for you, Hope.
It all sounds so exciting. Success becomes you and I wish you three bags full! Enjoy!
