*Cover Reveal* THE PARTNER PLOT!

Hello and Happy Monday!

I am SO excited to share the cover for my next adult romance THE PARTNER PLOT!!! I love this cover so much, just like I love the book so much and I have been bursting at the seams for the last couple months as I waited to be able to share the cover!! TPP goes on sale February 27, 2024, and it’s available for preorder here!

The cover and full description are below!

Two former high school sweethearts get a second chance in this marriage of convenience romance by Kristina Forest, author of The Neighbor Favor.

To Violet Greene, fashion is everything. As a successful celebrity stylist, she travels all over the world, living out her dreams. Professionally, she’s thriving, but her personal life is in shambles. After surviving a very public breakup with her ex-fiancé six months ago, Violet is now determined to focus on her career. But life hands her something—or rather, someone—that might derail everything…

Xavier Wright did not expect to run into his high school girlfriend Violet—the girl he once thought he’d marry—on a birthday trip to Vegas. As a high school teacher and basketball coach, he rarely leaves his New Jersey hometown, so what were the chances? But when the initial shock wears off, they decide to celebrate together. They feel young and reckless as they party the night away—and reckless they clearly were when the following morning, they wake up beside each other with rings on their fingers.

Their impulsive nuptials might be a blessing in disguise, though, when they realize that both of their careers could benefit from the marriage. So they play the part of a blissfully wedded couple. Yet when their passion comes hurling back, they realize their feelings are just as real as they were back when they were teens. But are their lives too different to stick it through or will they finally get a happy ending?

The cover was once again illustrated by Lila Selle, who also did the cover for THE NEIGHBOR FAVOR! If you’ve read TNF, then you might remember Lily’s older sister, Violet. THE PARTNER PLOT is Violet’s story. You don’t have to read TNF in order to read TPP—they are connected stand alones in the same world—but of course I think reading both will give you the best experience!

I learned so much about myself as a person and a writer while working on this book. I find writing for and about my (fictional) peers to be such a cathartic experience. Giving Violet and Xavier their HEA was such a rewarding journey. I can’t wait for you all to read their story!

I’ll return later this month for my regular June newsletter, but I wanted to share the cover with you now. <3

Until next time!

xo, Kristina
