More books!

This hit Publisher’s Marketplace a little earlier today, and I wanted to share it here.

Jill Myles writing as Jessica Clare’s WHEN SPARKS FLY, in which a woman seeks romantic revenge on the boy-next-door turned hockey hunk who did her wrong in high school, until they reunite and she finds herself caring more about the romance than the revenge, to Cindy Hwang at Berkley Heat, in a two book deal, by Holly Root at Waxman Literary Agency (World English).

I’m really excited about these books! The first one is already half written, so look for it to come out summer of next year. These books are contemporary romances, and, unlike my paranormals, are told from third person POV. So it’s a bit of a change for me, but it’s still fun, sexy romances. The Berkley Heat line publishes Jaci Burton and Lauren Dane, so I’m going to be in good company!

This IS a trade paperback line, though, so just be warned that the format is going to be a little different than the normal mass market paperbacks.  Jessica Clare is going to be my steamy contemporary name, and I’ll continue to post updates here so you don’t have to follow a jillion websites to figure out when my books come out.

You might be wondering what this book is about? Both of the sold books are set in a small town in South Texas called Bluebonnet.  In the first one, Miranda Hill is the local librarian, with a naughty, unjustly deserved reputation for being the town slut. It’s left her with a few hangups, you see, and she can’t get past the moment that her reputation was destroyed. So when the man that destroyed it returns to town, she decides to get her revenge on him…but finds herself falling for him instead.

It’s a LOT of fun and I’m so excited to write these!!
