Lillian Anderson's Too Close: The Beauty in Between (Guest Post/Giveaway)

Today I would like to welcome new adult author, Lillian Anderson! I just picked up her book, A Beautiful Struggle, for free on Amazon and loved it! Enjoy!

We’re all here to help launch ‘Too Close’, the first Beauty in Between novellas. So, I thought I would take some time to talk about exactly, what, the Beauty in Between books are, and what's in store for them.

When I created A Beautiful Struggle, it was meant to be a stand-alone book. It was just a book about a girl and a guy who get seriously side tracked on their way to finding each other. But, after it had been released for only a couple of weeks, I started getting emails asking me for a continuation of the story.

As a result, I wrote A Beautiful Forever, thinking that that novel, would be the end of the series. I thought they would be A Beautiful Duo, and I'd end it there. But after releasing Forever, I continued to get emails and comments about both books.

Readers wanted to see more of Katrina and David, both before and after A Beautiful Struggle. They also wanted to know more about Paige and her past. On top of that, I was getting emails asking me to continue the series with Naomi as the centre of the next book.

My answers to most of these questions/comments are The Beauty in Between novellas. As the name suggests, they slot in between the Beautiful novels, to show you what happened.

Right now, I have three novellas planned. First, of course, is Too Close (Katrina and David's friendship before ABS, releasing July 30), second is Phoenix (Paige's story, releasing September 30), and third is Commitment - I'll bet you can guess what this one is about, although, I'll tell you anyway. Commitment will follow on after A Beautiful Forever, it will follow David and Katrina home from the BBQ and explore their relationship leading up to their wedding.

I don't have a release date for Commitment as yet, because I'm also working on Naomi's story, which is called A Beautiful Melody and is due to release November 30.

So, get ready to have all your questions answered and more. Looks like the Beautiful world is going to have a fairly long life. I'll write it, at least, until you're all sick of it - that's how much I love you all! MWAH!

Too Close
Prequel of the Beautiful Series
Release Date - July 30, 2013

Before A Beautiful Struggle, Katrina and David's friendship was a bond that couldn't be broken.Starting with that fated moment when David carried Katrina to the emergency room, we travel back through David's memories as he waits to hear that his best friend and the one woman he truly cares for is going to survive...“I can’t lose her. You don’t understand how important she is to me,” I ramble. I guess I’m in shock because all I can think about is the sight of all that blood over Katrina’s beautiful face. “She’s my world. I can’t lose her.”This is book one in the novella series 'The Beauty in Between' the companion series to Lilliana Anderson's best selling 'A Beautiful' series
