Cover Reveal: Kristen Strassel’s SEASONS IN THE SUN
Kristen Strassel’s awesomeness is already a known entity in certain circles. I mean, first of all, she’s one-half of the powerhouse partnership The Undead Duo (along with RUNNING HOME author Julie Hutchings, who is responsible for approximately one-third of all my Twitter-related giggling). Second, she blogs honestly and insightfully about writing—check out her latest posts here. She also has a handsome cockatiel named McGee, maintains a Pinterest board on abandoned places that I’m totally obsessing over, and calls herself a “vampire smut peddler,” though I’m thinking that’s just the top layer of the onion.
Kristen has a new book out next month. It’s a prequel to her NA paranormal romance BECAUSE THE NIGHT (which I purchased but haven’t read yet, only because I am a Dagwood swooning before the towering, overstuffed sandwich that is my TBR list. But I’m gonna.) Kristen’s new book is a YA contemporary called SEASONS IN THE SUN, it’s out on 12/4, and I’ve got the cover and the blurb right here!
Cover:
I like it a lot. It’s quirky and moody and I want to know more.
Here’s the blurb:
Summer has finally arrived, along with a boy who will forever change the life of fourteen-year-old Callie. After growing up hearing stories about Tristan Trevosier and his famous family, Callie finally meets him when he spends the summer on Martha’s Vineyard. Seventeen-year-old Tristan is a hurricane of destruction and rebellion, and he quickly blows a hole right into Callie’s sheltered life. Callie sees a side of Tristan that he doesn’t show anyone else. She’s determined to make everyone see what she sees in him.
Callie defies her parents by leaving the island with Tristan. But when his ugly habits rear their head, Callie realizes maybe she’s the one who’s wrong about him. He’s beyond her help. But it’s too late for her to walk away. This summer, she learns that love can be stronger than reason.
A little more about Kristen Strassel:
Kristen shares a birthday with Steven Tyler and Diana Ross. She spends each day striving to be half as fabulous as they are. She’s worn many hats, none as flattering as her cowboy hat: banker, retail manager, fledgling web designer, world’s worst cocktail waitress, panty slinger, now makeup artist and aspiring author. She loves sunshine, live music, the middle of nowhere, and finding new things to put in her house. Kristen is represented by Pam van Hylckama Vlieg of Foreword Literary.
