Preparing for my next Three Coins novel…

What they don’t tell you about being a novelist is that you had better enjoy your own work, because you’ll be reading it a lot!

I am doing that in these days as I prepare my next novel, May Flowers at The Three Coins Inn: Three Coins 3. I am having it formatted, and that means reading it multiple times to pick up any last minute glitches or typos. So I have been “traveling” constantly to Umbria in these past weeks.

Mind you, that’s already after editing, proofreading and multiple reviews from my side. So yes, not only did I write the novel, but I have read through it umpteen times.

The first in my Three Coins series – set in beautiful Todi.

That said, it’s an absolute pleasure – and I am excited to get my third entry to my Three Coins series out into the world.

My release date is 8 May 2026. Before then, I’ll be getting it out for early reader reviews over on NetGalley – I’ll be sure to announce as soon as it’s ready, and hope you’ll consider reading and being an early reviewer! Indie authors like me need all the word-of-mouth promotion we can get, so I’m always grateful for early reviewers and Bookstagrammers who help me to spread the word of my releases. Thank you!

In the meantime, it’s fun for me to revisit beautiful Todi, Umbria, the site of my Three Coins Inn. If only on the page…

Here’s my blurb for the Three Coins Series:

Three expatriate women living in Italy, Emma, Annarita and Tiffany, cement a friendship that will change their lives forever. Emma departs Rome for the charming Umbrian village of Todi, to manage the Three Coins Inn, while Annarita and her husband run the hotel’s cooking classes. Each month, new guests descend upon the hotel, laden with life’s baggage. Will the charm and atmosphere of The Three Coins Inn work its magic on its guests? Friendship. Love. Loss. New beginnings. Find it all at The Three Coins Inn.
