Hi Friend,

Happy new year! Can you believe it's 2023? I can't, and I'll be writing the wrong date on things for six weeks at minimum before I catch up. It's practically a tradition. 

But date confusion aside, this is one of my favorite times of the year. Reflecting on what's been, and planning what's to come, is like catnip to me (if I were a cat.)

I also love to reflect on what's been. You'll find my highlights of the year further down, including the books released and conferences attended and trips taken and also a funny T-shirt I saw at NASA's giftshop. 

(Not buying it is my greatest regret of 2022.)

Thanks for being a subscriber and reader this past year. I hope you're excited for the year to come, because I sure am. There's something amazing about turning the page and finding an unwritten chapter there, waiting to be filled. 

And so, thank you 2022, and cheers to a marvellous 2023!

May this new year bring you happiness, health, and plenty of opportunities to curl up with a good book.

We got this,
Olivia

I released three full books! 

That meant I closed out two series, as both the New York Billionaires and the Brothers of Paradise are now complete.

I went to three amazing author conferences. SPS in London, RAM in Houston, and 20Books in Vegas. Four-hundred authors in a room is A LOT in every sense of the word, haha.

I met amazing new people and got to hang with some of my author friends. I also met three of my heroes...  Melanie Harlow. Lucy Score. Kandi Steiner. I tried to restrain my inner fan girl but probably only half-succeeded.

This was the year I finally made some Hayle merch, too. I drink almost exclusively out of my mugs. It kinda makes me feel like an Acture Capital employee or an Honorary Marchand.

I had a ton of fun with discreet paperbacks this year! There are definitely more coming next year, so keep an eye out if you prefer the non-model covers. Personally, I'm obssessed, like they permanently-live-on-my-desk-obssessed. 

And last but not least...

Have you read all of my bonus stories? 
These include extra chapters and extended epilogues.

Wondering which order you should read my books in or which to try next?

My new year's resolution is to not buy any more books before I've read the ones I have. I think I'll last maybe a week or two before breaking that resolution...
