The Fortune Teller’s New Cover!
My first book news for 2017!
I’m incredibly excited to share the final cover for The Fortune Teller.
Designed by LeeAnn Falciani
I cannot wait to hold the book in hand in June (about 5 months and 3 days away, but who’s counting… ;)) Many thanks to my team at Picador.
Hello 2017! And so the journey begins…
January 1 – The First Day in the new year, and so the journey begins.
In June my next novel, The Fortune Teller, is coming and before then I’m going to try and paint my own tarot deck in watercolor as a fun project. Sharing the first card here, The Fool, which marks the beginning of a journey in tarot. The Fool sets out without a path, with no expectations and an open heart.
Wishing you all full hearts in 2017 every step of the way. 
Cover Reveal for My Next Novel ~ The Fortune Teller
I’m thrilled to be able to share with you the cover for my next novel!
The Fortune Teller will be coming out 6/6/17 with Picador.
Here is the description that will be on the back of the book:
A SWEEPING AND SUSPENSEFUL TALE OF ROMANCE, FATE, AND FORTUNE…
Semele Cavnow appraises antiquities for an exclusive Manhattan auction house, specializing in deciphering ancient texts. And when she discovers a manuscript written in the time of Cleopatra, she knows it will be the find of her career. Its author tells the story of a priceless tarot deck, now lost to history, but as Semele delves further she realizes the manuscript is more than it seems. Both a memoir and a prophecy, it appears to be the work of a powerful seer, describing devastating wars and natural disasters in detail thousands of years before they occurred.
The more she reads, the more the manuscript begins to affect Semele’s life. But what happened to the cards? As the mystery of her connection to the manuscript deepens, Semele can’t shake the feeling that she’s being followed. Only one person can help her make sense of it all: her client, Theo Brossard. Yet Theo is arrogant and elusive, concealing secrets of his own, and there’s more to Semele’s desire to speak with him than she would like to admit. Can Semele even trust him?
The auction date is swiftly approaching, and someone wants to interfere—someone who knows the cards exist, and that the Brossard manuscript is tied to her. Semele realizes it’s up to her to stop them: the manuscript holds the key to a two-thousand-year-old secret, a secret someone will do anything to possess.
Now Available for Pre-Order at Amazon, Barnes&Noble, and IndieBound. Visit Macmillan’s book page for more retailer updates.

My next novel! The Fortune Teller ~ Coming in 2017
I’m thrilled to be announcing the publication of my next novel, The Fortune Teller. The book will be coming out with Picador USA next year in June.
Here is the announcement in Publishers Marketplace:
Like The Memory Painter, the story is a romantic thriller that travels through history. A brief description:
While on assignment in Switzerland, an ancient manuscripts appraiser discovers a mysterious memoir written by a seer in the time of Cleopatra. As she begins to translate the story, she finds herself embroiled in a race to find the world’s first tarot deck.
To see more about the story, you can look at my Pinterest board I have created. I use Pinterest while I’m writing to find images that inspire me.
I’m so excited for this next book and look forward to sharing news as it comes!
