《Bulletproof (Publishing 2023) ✔》PUBLISHING NEWS!

LADS!
Hello and welcome back. It has been over 7 years since I begun this story in 2014. I came up with this idea just before my fifteenth birthday and now I'm 22.
For some reason, you adored this messy little book. You gave it 25M reads in 6 months. It has over 1M likes. And now it has 50M reads??
You loved this book and these characters so much over the years that I always knew I wanted to be able to finally write the version of this book that it deserved. I was a very young teen when I started this. I didn't know how to write a book. I didn't know how relationships and love worked. I didn't even Google how underground fighting worked because I was worried that was illegal to do lmao.
I'm now 22. I have an English degree. I have my own apartment. And I am finally ready and so excited to write the book of my dreams. These characters mean more than anything to me and they deserve a better book.
So I am very happy to announce that I am writing that rewrite.
And I am even more excited to announce that it's being published!
BULLETPROOF, the book of our dreams, will be available for you to buy in ebook and paperback! (Estimated 2023 release)
This version is a full rewrite. The version this book is now does not do it or myself justice. The characters are the same (and some new ones) and the basic plot is the same. But I'm just so excited to share this new version, you are going to love it so so much.
Here are some things to look forward to:
- mature scenes! Bulletproof was never big enough on romance. Well, this rewrite IS. There will be mature scenes, nothing heavily explicit but there will be some detail that is tasteful!

- better plot and higher stakes! I always took issue to the conflict and "villain" of this story and in this version Tyler is actually going to have a "rival" in his underground fighting and football personas.
- more football! There's no way this boy somehow went from ditching football to getting into school for it so there will actually be football in this book and we see Tyler's two worlds conflict much more than before!
- better development: the book is about 2 people whose family and personal lives are in shambles but I felt we never got the pay off or full effects of those feelings, which will be rectified in this book!
- bisexual tally for the win! Tally was the first lgbt character I ever wrote and was 100% a throw in from me at a time when I was struggling to understand and connect with my own sexuality. Tally plans a much more personal and stronger role in this version.
- making out in Tyler's truck until the windows steam up
- Tyler is a passive aggressive flirt times 100 and it's the greatest thing. Is he annoyed or flirting, we truly don't actually know.
I'm beyond words and just so pumped for this book. I really think you are going to adore it as much as I do.
Just the fact that you guys will have the chance to have a copy of Bulletproof on your bookshelves is crazy. I'm working so hard to make this the best I possibly can for us!

Shadow in the North
What if a work of fiction wasn't fiction at all? What if we only thought it was fiction because it was written down, and we were separated from it by the page?

She likes the idea of waking up in the middle of her favourite book with the handsome, brooding Mr Thornton glaring at people in his mill yard, but she doesn't worry about the foul air of dirty, smoky Milton, because it's not real, and it was written over 160 years ago.But then she takes a trip to Oxford, and gets waylaid along the way, finding herself greeted at a smoky train station, by a man called Mr Hale, who claims to be her godfather. When Isabel meets Margaret and first sees Mr Thornton, she's determined to help the course of love run a little more smoothly for the two stubborn lovers.
