As long as I continue to enjoy writing in this world, and readers enjoy reading the stories, books are possible.īecause of the way I built this world and the way the characters evolved, it meant I could start a new chapter. Dex and Sloane hold a special place in my heart. I never wanted to get to a point where I was no longer enjoying writing these fellas. I love the THIRDS world, and the possibilities are endless. I wanted to end the series on a high but leave it open for more stories. I’m often asked how it felt ending the THIRDS series, and my response is always the same. With the THIRDS series ending at Tried & True, it was time for some of the other characters we met throughout the series to get their happy ever after, two of them being Austen Payne and Osmond Zachary “Zach”. Now 4 years later, I’ve just released the first book in a series of THIRDS Universe side books. At the time I was taking a chance on something new, something different.

To say this series changed my life would be an understatement.

It seems so far away, but I know it’ll be here in no time which means it’ll be 2019, and I’m so not ready for another year to be over! My first Coastal Magic was in 2015, just months after the release of Hell & High Water. Hello, all! Thank you so much for joining me here today on Joyfully Jay to celebrate another Coastal Magic. Please join me in giving her a big welcome! She has also brought along an exclusive giveaway. Charlie has come as part of the Coastal Magic Blog Tour to talk to us about her latest release, Love and Payne (which I reviewed here and really enjoyed). Today I am so pleased to welcome Charlie Cochet to Joyfully Jay.
