So remember when I told you that it took me five years to write The Cenote?
Well, I lied.
I actually was writing two books. This is the other.
I could’t be more thrilled to share this book with you. This is a young adult novel about a girl who is kidnapped from her island and taken to the land of her ancestors where she is forced to choose between retaining her virtue or preserving her life.
I wrote this book because I was tired of going to the bookstore and seeing all the latest YA books about teenagers giving up their virtue. I wanted to write a book about a young woman who was determined to keep hers, no matter what.
I will be updating my blog over the next few months to let you know when you can pre-order The Last Messenger. Until then we are just going to have to wait. You and I both!

I’m so excited you have a new book coming out Chelsea! The Cenote was one of my favorite reads of this past year – I’m going to recommend it to my book club! Enough with the World War II novels – we need something fun and mysterious!
