The publication date for the UK edition of Smitten is imminent – next tuesday, April 8th. It’s the best summary of everything I’ve learned about limerence since starting the blog. I’m proud of it.
The book can be pre-ordered from all the usual venues, and the North American edition can also be pre-ordered for the November 4th release date there.
For those that buy ahead, I’ve produced five bonus chapters on some of the hardest limerence scenarios:
- Unrequited limerence
- Limerence for a mentor
- Limerence for a co-worker
- Limerence for a therapist
- Limerence for a married LO
To claim these bonuses, please complete the pre-order form:
I know I’ve been banging on about this for the last few weeks, but pre-orders really do make a huge difference to the success of a book.
They help bookshops decide how many copies they will order. They help distributors predict demand. Most important, healthy pre-orders help the author launch their book well and get follow-on book deals.
Which I would like.

So, to everyone who has already bought: my heartfelt thanks.
To anyone on the fence – just a few days to go if you want the bonuses (in the UK)!
To anyone who has got value from the blog over the years and would like to say thank you financially – this is the single best way you can help.
To celebrate the release, I’m going to be having a book launch event in Nottingham on Wednesday April 23rd. So, if any readers in the UK want to come along and say hello, please do!
