‘The Accidental Empress’ Debuts at #7 on New York Times Bestseller List!

NY Times Bestseller ListI could not be more thrilled to share the news that The Accidental Empress debuted this past week at #7 on the New York Times Bestseller List for Hardcover Fiction!

Yes, I am absolutely still pinching myself. I think I might have pierced my literary agent’s eardrum when she told me the news. Following that initial eruption of incoherent sound, I’m finding that, now, I don’t even have words to express how overjoyed I am.

 Thank you, thank you, to all of you who have read and helped to spread the word on this book! I’m beyond grateful.

I look forward to continuing to connect with you all over the next few weeks as the book tour for The Accidental Empress continues.

Until then, happy reading! And please know how truly humbled and appreciative I am to have your support!
