Punchlines and Promises: how you can be a part of the sequel
Traditional publishing shines, but for this book I wanted the front‑row seats filled with you—the readers who carried Rainbows beyond my wildest charts.
Set against the backdrop of the troubled British summer of 2024, Rainbows and Lollipops weaves together three lives in a warm, witty, and unflinching story about love, loss, and the families we choose.
As secrets unravel and lives collide, Jake, Vicky, and Lucy discover that family isn’t always blood-it’s the people who show up when everything falls apart.
Perfect for fans of Beth O’Leary, Mhairi McFarlane, and Dolly Alderton, Rainbows and Lollipops blends biting social commentary with heartfelt humour and emotional depth in a story about resilience, queer joy, and the surprising places we find our true selves.
Told in six ‘episodes’ like a binge-worthy streaming drama, three lost souls collide in
the turbulent UK summer of 2024. Love, loss, and identity pull them apart…
until an unlikely friendship changes everything.
Traditional publishing shines, but for this book I wanted the front‑row seats filled with you—the readers who carried Rainbows beyond my wildest charts.
Publishing is still a world where who you know—and how much money you have—matters more than your talent.
Time to hit the road and promote my latest novel!
Do we really need more male novelists? Or just a broader idea of whose stories matter?
How I learned (the hard way) how much marketing matters when you’re the one making sure people know your new book is out.
In times where everything feels a little bit wrong, found family matters more than ever, and it’s the rock on which I built ‘Rainbows and Lollipops’ my new novel out in June.
