We Have a Title! (And a Winner)

Thank you to my readers who offered new titles for After the Storm!

It was a grueling process, going back and forth between author, agent, editor, and the publisher's marketing department, but we've finally settled on Secrets She Left Behind. If you check out the comments to the original post, you'll see that our frequent commenter, Denise, actually suggested that wording, so she will receive a copy of the book when it's hot off the shelves in May.

Originally, we were trying to work the word "after" into the title to keep the book linked to Before the Storm, since it's a sequel, but the right titles simply weren't coming to us. I'm very happy with this new title. It fits the book perfectly and better reflects the drama and tension that exists in the story.

Thanks so much to all of you who helped!
