What’s Coming Next?

July 17, 2020 By Jody Hedlund

Thank you to Elisabeth Espinoza for this lovely picture!

I’ve been hearing from many readers who’ve been finishing the third book in my bride-ship series, A BRIDE OF CONVENIENCE, and I’ve been getting questions and comments like:

“I don’t want this series to end! Will there be any more books?”

“I’m anxious to know if Zeke gets a story!”

“Ever since Zeke was introduced, I’ve been waiting . . .”

“Zeke is SO READY for a bride!”

I’m super happy to report that the fourth and final book in the series, ALMOST A BRIDE, releases in about a month on August 25. And yes! This story finishes up with Zeke Hart (whose twin sister Zoe is the heroine in A BRIDE OF CONVENIENCE).

The fourth book includes another bride from the Robert Lowe (the second bride ship). The setting takes place in British Columbia, this time even further up in the mountains in a mining community. Of course, the town is filled with mostly men (like the rest of the colony) and having a woman arrive creates quite the stir!

Pre-order is available now! For those interested in the possibility of being a part of my launch crew and getting an early reading opportunity, make sure you join my Reader Room!

Also, this fall be on the lookout for The Fairest Maidens series! The first book BEHOLDEN releases September 22. BEGUILED releases October 20. And BESOTTED releases November 17.

This series is a prequel to the medieval books that released last fall in The Lost Princesses series (and includes some of the same story-world). If you love knights, castles, danger, and daring damsels, then this sweet romance series will be right up your alley!

Beginning in January of 2021, I’ll be starting a brand new series involving a family of handsome cowboy ranchers set in the high country of Colorado in the 1860’s. The first book is called Cowboy For Keeps (published by Bethany House). More to come!

Also in June of 2021, I’m delving into a new genre. Let me just say, if you like Outlander by Diana Gabaldon or The Rose Garden by Susanna Kearsley, then you’ll love my Middle Ages time-crossing novel, Come Back to Me (published by Revell). More to come on that soon too!

Whew! That’s all for now!

YOUR TURN! What’s next up for YOU? We’d love to hear about your summer and what you’ve been up to!

    You seem to have scheduled your book releases ahead very thoroughly. I hope I’ll be able to read them soon. I’m going to read, read and read in the summer, with some writing when I have time. I shall also be trying out some functions of my sewing machine.

    I’m tired just reading your list, Jody. 🙂 Your work ethic, storytelling skill, and creativity are tremendous. I’m in awe! And as you know, I super excited to welcome you to the cowboy sphere for your next series. Can’t wait to read them!

    You are busy, busy and I so look forward to your new releases. Can’t wait for the cowboy ranchers! Nothing better than a good cowboy story. I’ve been visiting my mom, now traveling home. Can’t believe Summer is passing so fast. Stay safe and well.
