I've shared a little of the difficulties of writing my sophomore novel, Dry as Rain here on Novel Journey. I've had so many rewrites I thought I'd go bald from ripping my hair out (going from a third person story half from the wife-s pov and half from the husband's... to a first person novel all from the husband's pov for starters.)This was a tough one. But at long last, it is now available for pre-order on Amazon and B&N. . . and we have a cover!
Just wanted to share the good news. In an author's life, this is one of the big moments. Can't wait to hold it!
Dry as Rain
From the bestselling author of Crossing Oceans comes a powerfully moving story that tests the limits of love’s forgiveness. Like many marriages, Eric and Kyra Yoshida’s has fallen apart slowly, one lost dream and misunderstanding at a time, until the ultimate betrayal finally pushes them beyond reconciliation.
Just when it looks like forgive and forget is no longer an option, a car accident gives Eric the second chance of a lifetime. A concussion causes his wife to forget details of her life, including the chasm between them. No one knows when—or if—Kyra’s memory will return, but Eric seizes the opportunity to win back the woman he’s never stopped loving.
I loved Dry as Rain! Gina definitely writes the male POV well. Must be from all the guys in her life. ;) Whatever it is, this is indeed a powerful story.
ReplyDeleteAnd I LOVE the cover, G.
I loved Crossing Oceans and I've been looking forward to reading Dry as Rain ever since. So excited it's available for pre-order!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny to read your comment about switching to a single pov, because what I've been raving about since finishing the book is how well you pulled that off. I'm just TOO impressed with how real Eric is, and how you managed to make this appealing to me as a woman, but not all fluffed up with sappy stuff. I think I can even recommend this to my husband and he won't feel like I've drug him into a date movie. GREAT BOOK!
