The Sooner I Go was born out of my homesickness for NYC during COVID. My friend Rebecca and I lived at 193 Bleecker in a 2BR, 5th fl walk-up, nothing like the tiny apartment I created for my FMC—who called it “The Coffin.” It was fun building Micah & Brynn’s world out of the places I love.

Get to know Brynn through her IG feed. She’s all about music, Cody, and her favorite city. What to expect in The Sooner I Go: 🖤 Enemies to lovers 🖤 Workplace romance 🖤 Grumpy boss 🖤 Forced proximity 🖤 Love triangle 🖤 Secrets and hidden pasts 🖤 Unreliable narrator 🖤 Mystery + revenge

A glimpse into Micah 🖤 I wanted his feelings for her to come through in a way that felt true to him. He’s someone who lives with a lot of noise in his head, so the idea that she could make it a little quieter felt much more meaningful than a simple love confession. See link in bio.

I’ve been doing this for awhile now and realized I’ve never introduced myself so hi 👋🏼 I’m Heather, a romance & suspense author. If Colleen Hoover and Paige Toon are on your bookshelves, you’re going to love my books too. Expect romance, complicated relationships, plenty of angst, and all the feels.

If you like to shop by tropes, here are some for THE PUSH START: 🩷 Forced proximity 🩷 Sunshine/stoic (grump’s a bit of a stretch) 🩷 Workplace romance #Romancelandia #BookSky tinyurl.com/bdcv8dj4

Ask your friends and family if they're okay; listen before forming a reply. I tend to jump in, interrupt with a quick "I'm so sorry, it's going to be okay" instead of giving them space to talk. I'm working on it. Anyone else do this?💚#MentalAwarenessMonth #BreaktheStigma
