Emma said,

‘I could not be happier to sign this contract and to continue to be part of the Bookouture family. My journey so far, both with Bookouture itself and with my amazing editor Helen, has been incredible. We’ve achieved so much together and I cannot wait to see what we continue to achieve going forward.’
