Hello, all! Thank you for joining me here today at Love Bytes for my monthly author column.  It’s been a while since I posted an update on what books are coming when. As we head toward the end of 2016, I’m super excited about 2017 and everything I have planned. Right now I’m writing books that will be released spring and summer of 2017.

The first release for the new year will be Thick & Thin: THIRDS, book 8 (Dex & Sloane novella) which is due for release in February. After that we have Darkest Hour Before Dawn: THIRDS, book 9 (Seb & Hudson’s book) which is currently with my publisher. This book way longer to finish than I’d hoped, but RL wasn’t cutting me a break. It was tough, and we still have a way to go for editing, but I’m excited about it.

As I prepare for the release of The Soldati Prince: Soldati Hearts, book 1 (11/23/16), I’m writing the second book, Rayner and Toka’s story.  From here on out, anything can happen, but here’s what’s planned so far: I’ll be working on another Dreamspun Desires story because those are just so much fun to write, followed by book 10 in the THIRDS series (Dex & Sloane). Then we jump into the first book of the TIN series, followed by the re-release of An Intrepid Trip to Love: A Little Bite of Love, book 1, and the third book in the Little Bite of Love series, Kristoff and Mischa’s book. I can’t wait to get my wicked little author fingers on Mischa. He is just too much fun to wind up.

Lastly for 2017, we’ll have the final book in the North Pole City Tales series, book 6, which I think is going to be so much fun. I’m sure the King of Frost isn’t going to make things easy for poor Dasher, though I’m sure Dasher will give as good as he gets. We might get a little side story, but the main series will be complete. I’m going to miss writing these mischievous elves, but that means I’ll just have to think of a new holiday story. In 2018 we have a fun contemporary series I’m really looking forward to, but more on that as we get closer to the date.

I also have several conferences planned for 2017. In Feb Coastal Magic in Daytona, in March the Dreamspinner Press workshop, and then at the end of March the Paris Book Fair. In May RT, and in July RWA. I’m hoping to make it to GRL next year, so we’ll see. There will likely be another two conferences, but I haven’t confirmed yet. So yes, 2017 is looking to be another busy year. Hopefully I can keep my schedule on my track. Here’s to a new year and more books!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Charlie Cochet is an author by day and artist by night. Always quick to succumb to the whispers of her wayward muse, no star is out of reach when following her passion. From adventurous agents and sexy shifters, to society gentlemen and hardboiled detectives, there’s bound to be plenty of mischief for her heroes to find themselves in, and plenty of romance, too!

Currently residing in Central Florida, Charlie is at the beck and call of a rascally Doxiepoo bent on world domination. When she isn’t writing, she can usually be found reading, drawing, or watching movies. She runs on coffee, thrives on music, and loves to hear from readers.
