What happens once the glass slipper fits…?

The Missus by E L James

Maxim Trevelyan, reluctant Earl of Trevethick, has pursued the woman he loves to the wilds of Albania. Having fought for and won her, he now has to wed her, at the sharp end of a shotgun.

But can a reformed rake like Maxim ever make a good husband – or will his own notorious reputation and the scandalous secrets of his aristocratic family destroy his newfound happiness?

Alessia Demachi has defied and outwitted kidnappers and traffickers, and won the heart of the man she loves, but can she make this marriage work? Confronted by Maxim’s lurid past, his forbidding family, and the looks and whispers of London’s elite, will she ever be seen as Maxim’s countess – or will she always be his former cleaner?

From the majestic mountains of Albania, through the rural idyll of the English countryside, to the shady glamour of contemporary London, The Missus is a spellbinding journey of love, longing, acceptance, and redemption.

Dear All

I’m delighted to announce that my new novel The Missus will be available on 20th June 2023 in the US, Canada, the UK & Ireland. It’s a follow-up to my book The Mister and picks up where we left Maxim and Alessia — in the wilds of northern Albania.

As you know, I’m a sucker for a passionate love-story and this continues in that vein. I’ve long thought about how romance novels end with the sound of wedding bells, but we never find out what happens next. Hence my tagline:

What happens once the glass slipper fits…?

Both Alessia and Maxim are heading into uncharted territory — and boy did I have fun going with them.

Though it’s taken me a wee while to write The Missus, I’ve enjoyed every minute, and loved getting reacquainted with these two lovers. My hope is that you enjoy their journey as much as I have and that you continue to root for them both.

If you’d like a sneak peek, there’s a wee, short excerpt on The Today Show’s website: https://today.com. 

Pre-order links are below, and news of other territories will follow.

Please stay safe and well.

Much love

FREED Cover Reveal

I’m delighted to share with you the cover for Freed: Fifty Shades Freed as Told by Christian.

You are cordially invited to the wedding of the decade, when Christian Grey will make Anastasia Steele his wife. But is he really husband material? His dad is unsure, his brother wants to organize one helluva bachelor party, and his fiancée won’t vow to obey…

And marriage brings its own challenges. Their passion for each other burns hotter and deeper than ever, but Ana’s defiant spirit continues to stir Christian’s darkest fears and tests his need for control. As old rivalries and resentments endanger them both, one misjudgment threatens to the tear them apart.

Can Christian finally overcome the nightmares of his childhood and the torments of his youth, and save himself? And once he’s discovered the truth of his origins, can he find forgiveness and accept Ana’s unconditional love?

Can Christian finally be Freed?

FREED. Coming soon…
Here’s a sneak peek at the revised first chapter.

I posted the first chapter of Freed: Fifty Shades Freed as told by Christian on my website for his birthday on 18th June 2020. I was in the midst of writing the book and it wasn’t until September of last year that I finished the first draft. Since then the novel has been through several redrafts, a process I really enjoy, and revisions have been made. It’s also been through a hefty editing process (huge thanks to all those involved) and I thought you might want to read the revised chapter in anticipation of the publication date of 1st June 2021.

Thank you as ever for all your support – I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Stay safe, people.

Freed: Fifty Shades as Told by Christian. Save the Date!

Freed - Save the Date

Hello All

I’m thrilled to let you know that Freed: Fifty Shades Freed as Told by Christian will be published in North America, the UK and Commonwealth on 1st June 2021. Other territories to be announced.

This story has been a labour of love, one that I know you’ve been eagerly awaiting. For me, just as for Anastasia Steele, Christian is a challenging, infuriating and endlessly fascinating character. Living in his head is exhausting, but I’ve been able to explore some aspects of his life in Freed that we only glimpsed in the original trilogy, and to follow his emotional growth in response to Ana’s love and compassion.

Pre-order from your favourite retailer.

Hope you are all faring well in these strange times.

All the best
