Dear Honest Readers,
Lorie
and Carey here!
The day
has finally come when we can share our dream-come-true news with you all!!!! We
are bursting to spill the details, but first, if you’ll indulge her, Lorie
would like to go back to the beginning. The very beginning...
Once
upon a time, when I was sixteen years old, my great-uncle took me to see my
very first Broadway-style production—Brigadoon!
As the curtain lifted, I was swept away to a world of magic, beauty and
gorgeous boys in kilts. It would be easy to say I fell head over heels in love
with the story, but one issue bothered me for the next twenty years: The portal
to Brigadoon opened once every hundred years and when the portal closed, all
its inhabitants…slept. Really? What a dull existence in an otherwise enchanting
kingdom! One cold winter day, I was discussing this gap between childhood
expectations and reality with Carey—critique partner extraordinaire and diehard
theater aficionado—and we decide to create the story the way we wished it had
been; thus DOON, a reimagining of
the musical Brigadoon, with permission from the Lerner and Loewe estates, was
born.
DOON…
A mysterious letter and a set of
magical rings lead two best friends to an enchanted bridge and a thriving land
existing outside of time and place. The Scottish Kingdom of Doon is quite
possibly the answer to everything missing in the girls’ lives—excitement, a
sense of belonging, purpose and love—including two handsome princes. However when
a vengeful witch bent on destruction threatens Doon’s very existence, the girls
must find a way to save the kingdom and its people before they disappear
forever into the mists.
~Destiny awaits!
We are
humbled and thrilled beyond words to announce that all four books of the DOON series will be published by
Zondervan/Harper Collins in hardcover, the first to release in September
2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are
grateful for the privilege to be able to celebrate first with all of you here at
Honestly YA. Thank you for sharing in our miraculous journey!
Hugs,
Carey and Lorie
