- 0:13Speaker 1: Your second novel coming out on June twenty fourth, The
- 0:16Speaker 1: Four Engagement Rings of Sybil Rain. Oh okay, what's this
- 0:21Speaker 1: one about?
- 0:23Speaker 2: Yeah, so this one is about Sybil, who she's had
- 0:30Speaker 2: it rough.
- 0:30Speaker 3: She's actually one of the characters in my first book.
- 0:35Speaker 3: The setting of the first book was on her wedding weekend,
- 0:40Speaker 3: but you know, the wedding weekend did not go as planned.
- 0:43Speaker 2: She ended up not getting married.
- 0:45Speaker 3: So this book takes place a year after the whole
- 0:49Speaker 3: fiasco and she's just in need for a good vacation,
- 0:54Speaker 3: so she takes her ticket vouchers that were about to
- 0:57Speaker 3: expire from her honeymoon and goes on acation and it's
- 1:02Speaker 3: very forgetting Sarah Marshall vibes. She ends up running into
- 1:05Speaker 3: her access on the beach and chaos ensues. But it's
- 1:10Speaker 3: really about being confronted with your past and having to
- 1:14Speaker 3: learn how to love yourself to be able to really
- 1:19Speaker 3: be able to receive the love that's right in front
- 1:21Speaker 3: of you and that you deserve. So it's definitely super fun.
- 1:26Speaker 3: It's set in Hawaii. We've got so much chaos.
- 1:31Speaker 2: But I think what's.
- 1:33Speaker 3: Always important for me is anything that I put out
- 1:35Speaker 3: there has like some deeper meaning and connects to something
- 1:38Speaker 3: that I've learned along the way. And I think people
- 1:42Speaker 3: will really be rooting for Sybil as she come to
- 1:45Speaker 3: terms of what love is and how they're happily ever after.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Well good for you.
- 1:50Speaker 1: And I heard one of your dreams for this book
- 1:52Speaker 1: is for it to become a movie and you've already
- 1:54Speaker 1: picked out a dreamcast.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you have to just shoot for the stars.
- 1:58Speaker 2: I mean any time that.
- 2:02Speaker 3: With the books that I've written, you know, I always
- 2:04Speaker 3: think about like how could they be expanded in some
- 2:07Speaker 3: way and take on another life. And when I went
- 2:11Speaker 3: on my first book tour, I know, I came and
- 2:13Speaker 3: chat with the B two Like people always ask like,
- 2:16Speaker 3: would you want this to become you know, a movie
- 2:19Speaker 3: or TV show? And I'm like, well, sure, i'd be amazing.
- 2:22Speaker 3: And I kept getting asked like who would I dreamcast?
- 2:24Speaker 3: And I wasn't fully ready for that. So this time
- 2:26Speaker 3: I was like, I don't think we're.
- 2:28Speaker 2: Going to ask you. So I'm just gonna like who casting.
- 2:32Speaker 3: So for Sybil Rain, I think Sidney Sweeney would be
- 2:36Speaker 3: amazing because there's she obviously just killed it with that
- 2:39Speaker 3: last rom com that she did, but she also can
- 2:42Speaker 3: play kind of like have that darkness ye, and I
- 2:45Speaker 3: feel like Sybil has a little bit of both.
- 2:50Speaker 2: I think Jonathan Bailey would be the best for.
- 2:53Speaker 3: Jamie the female I mean the male main character. And
- 2:58Speaker 3: then there's another ex Sebastian who I think would be
- 3:02Speaker 3: great played by Leo Woodall. So those are my dream
- 3:05Speaker 3: good casting.
- 3:06Speaker 1: I like it. Put it out there, and I saw
- 3:08Speaker 1: that you've also joined the tenth season of Bachelor in
- 3:11Speaker 1: Paradise as a bartender, So what is what is your
- 3:14Speaker 1: job there? Aside from handing out drinks? I'm sure there's
- 3:18Speaker 1: more involved totally.
- 3:19Speaker 3: I really would say that my role is Paradise relations.
- 3:24Speaker 3: If you've ever seen the White Lotus and seen the
- 3:25Speaker 3: concierge that just kind of shows up and helps with.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Things, that's me. Okay, you to work, Okay, I trying.
- 3:32Speaker 3: To take my fifteen every fifteen, but there's always just
- 3:35Speaker 3: nice something else that I'm helping with. So it was
- 3:38Speaker 3: really fun to be able to be on there and
- 3:41Speaker 3: bring you know, some female energy into the show, and
- 3:44Speaker 3: it's gonna it's going to be it's the same show
- 3:47Speaker 3: that everyone loves, but it's going to have some differences.
- 3:51Speaker 3: And to be a part of that that newness was
- 3:53Speaker 3: really fun to be had the opportunity nice.
