Welcome to The Next Chapter ❤️
If you’ve ever navigated heartbreak, wrestled with self-worth, or wondered if you’ll ever get your second chance at love—then you’re in the right place.
The Next Chapter is more than just a newsletter. It’s a space for real talk, reflection, and healing. It’s for anyone who’s ever had to start over, rebuild, and rediscover themselves. Here, we embrace the messy, beautiful, transformative power of love, growth, and second chances.
Why subscribe?
If you’ve ever felt like love passed you by, like healing takes too long, or like you’re stuck in a chapter you don’t want to be in—you are not alone. This newsletter is a reminder that your story isn’t over. There’s always a next chapter waiting for you, and I want to help you step into it with confidence and hope.
The best part? It’s completely free. You’ll get two emails a week—nothing spammy, nothing overwhelming—just honest, soul-nourishing content straight to your inbox.
Subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and publication archives.
Who is This For?
This is for the dreamers, the romantics, the ones who’ve been broken but refuse to stay that way. If you love emotional, character-driven romance with themes of healing, second chances, and self-discovery, you’ll feel right at home here.
What You’ll Find Here
Every week, you’ll get two posts delivered straight to your inbox:
Monday Reflections on Love, Heartbreak & Second Chances
Deep, raw, and honest stories about healing, self-worth, and the winding road to love. Whether it’s learning to trust again, letting go of toxic relationships, or embracing your own worth, these reflections will meet you right where you are.
Wednesday Serial Romance Chapter
Each week, you’ll get a brand-new chapter from Fallin’ for the Fame, my ongoing romcom about a quiet grad assistant who stumbles into Hollywood scandal and unexpected love. It’s fun, emotional, and packed with twists (and maybe a few swoon-worthy moments).
Voiceovers for Every Post
Life gets busy, so I record audio versions of every post. Listen while you’re driving, working out, or taking a quiet moment for yourself.
Exclusive Sneak Peeks & Book Updates
As I gear up for my debut novel The Dance (coming this October!), you’ll get behind-the-scenes updates, first looks at new projects, and subscriber-only goodies.
