What are you doing on Tuesday, August 25th?
The correct and best answer is joining us at the Milford Arts Council to hear New York Times bestselling author (and Milford’s own!) Lynne Constantine talk about her latest page-turner, Promise Me Never. You’ll want to read it. Here’s the gist:
Aspiring writer Savannah’s scheme to meet superstar horror novelist Bennett Bryson works out better than she could’ve ever imagined: not only does her charming and handsome literary idol offer to read her work, he’s smitten with her. After a whirlwind romance, Savannah says “yes” to marriage and the two settle into Bennett’s secluded upstate home.
But just as Savannah thinks she has it made, cracks appear in her perfect new life. Bennett’s behavior becomes dark and controlling; he criticizes Savannah’s writing, dictates her every move, adn spends most of his time locked in his office, forbidding her from entering. And everywhere, Savannah cannot escape the shadow of Bennett’s first wife, the free-spirited and passionate artist Poppy, who died in a tragic accident, but who still seems to be Savannah’s rival for Benett’s affection.
Before long, all becomes clear: Bennett is not who he seems. The women that came before Savannah have disappeared. And Savannah could be next.
How fabulous does this book sound?!? Come out to support our hometown gal and hear about this and the many other exciting projects Lynne has on the hopper. (Did you know her book The Last Mrs. Parrish is being made into a Netflix film — by none other than J. Lo?!)
We’re meeting at the MAC for this one. Book signing (and sips and snacks at the MAC concessions stand, if you please) to follow.
Tickets are linked on our website. We hope you can make it!
