I’m thrilled to announce that Penguin Random House has cast actors Vidish Athavale and Lydia Hanman to narrate the audiobook version of The Siren of Sussex!
This was such an exciting process. Penguin Random House Audio held auditions for the roles of Ahmad and Evelyn. So many brilliant voice actors auditioned. There were no bad choices among them. However, when I heard Vidish and Lydia’s auditions, I truly felt they brought my characters to life, speaking the lines almost exactly how I’d imagined them when I wrote them.
Many thanks to Berkley Romance and Penguin Random House Audio for allowing me to participate in the casting process.
The Siren of Sussex audiobook will be released on January 11, 2022. I can’t wait for you all to hear Vidish and Lydia reading it!

A PopSugar and BookBub Best Romance of 2022
A London heiress rides out to the wilds of the English countryside to honor a marriage of convenience with a mysterious and reclusive stranger.
Tall, dark, and dour, the notorious Captain Jasper Blunt was once hailed a military hero, but tales abound of his bastard children and his haunted estate in Yorkshire. What he requires now is a rich wife to ornament his isolated ruin, and he has his sights set on the enchanting Julia Wychwood.
For Julia, an incurable romantic cursed with a crippling social anxiety, navigating a London ballroom is absolute torture. The only time Julia feels any degree of confidence is when she’s on her horse. Unfortunately, a young lady can’t spend the whole of her life in the saddle, so Julia makes an impetuous decision to take her future by the reins—she proposes to Captain Blunt.
In exchange for her dowry and her hand, Jasper must promise to grant her freedom to do as she pleases. To ride—and to read—as much as she likes without masculine interference. He readily agrees to her conditions, with one provision of his own: Julia is forbidden from going into the tower rooms of his estate and snooping around his affairs. But the more she learns of the beastly former hero, the more intrigued she becomes…
