​It's RELEASE DAY! I'm so excited that SUNSHINE ON SILVER LAKE is finally out in the world! I feel like I've been waiting for this release all summer because I'm just so excited for you all to meet Jack Hershey and Emma St. James! These two have secretly been in love since they were teenagers and now they're in a (not-so) pretend relationship for the summer. This story was fun and emotional at times to write. I loved every minute!

Today I have a special 4th of July teaser for you! Or actually it's more like a small bite-sized excerpt...
Since SUNSHINE ON SILVER LAKE takes place over the summer, the 4th of July holiday is included in the book. As if there weren't already sparks between Emma and Jack, they share a picnic in the park together and share one hot kiss under the fireworks ... but you'll have to read the book to experience the kiss 💋 
🎆 🎆🎆
Emma felt breathless with anticipation. But not from waiting to see the explosive colors that would light up the mountain sky. She’d always found fireworks romantic. It was sitting next to Jack on a picnic blanket beneath the stars that already had her heart in her throat.
A high-pitched squeal penetrated the silence, making Emma jump. It was a solid second before a splash of red covered the sky. Jack reached for Emma’s hand. She swallowed but didn’t look at him. She didn’t pull her hand away either.
Instead, she leaned in toward him, absorbed in the moment. All her senses were bombarded by the experience, and she let herself get lost in it.

Have a safe and happy 4th of July!
