SUMMARY:Meet & Greet with Jane Ward
DESCRIPTION:Ward writes of art and the art world with precision and vigor. The story deftly leaps back and forth between the early 1990s and the present\, crafting a romance that\, while predictable in places\, always manages to hold the contented reader in the palm of its hand. An artful and affecting novel of loss and reconnection. -Kirkus Review \nJoin Jane Ward at Blue House Books on Saturday\, April 4th\, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Jane will be chatting with readers and signing books\, so stop by anytime during the event to meet this author! \nRegistration is not required\, but RSVP for event updates and reminders here: https://withfriends.co/…/meet_and_greet_with_jane_ward \nAbout SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU SOONER: \nWhen Noel Enfield is offered a secondment at a museum in London\, it’s a chance for her career aspirations to finally come to fruition—but also leads to the opening of some old wounds—in this story of art\, love lost\, and second chances\, perfect for fans of David Nicholls and Claire Lombardo. \nWhile studying art history at a London university\, Noel Enfield falls passionately in love with aspiring artist and art school student Bryn Jones. Shortly after Bryn leaves for a five-month painting trip through Italy\, Noel discovers she is pregnant. She is ecstatic and believes Bryn will be too—they have plans to marry\, after all. But mishaps part the two lovers\, and a desperate Noel makes a split-second choice to move forward in a way that will change not only her life but also the lives of everyone she loves. \nThree decades later\, when she is offered a six-month secondment to a London museum\, Noel decides it’s time to prove she really has moved on from that difficult period by returning to the city where she met and lost Bryn. But rather than proving she has persevered\, the move lands Noel in the thick of London’s insular art world\, with only one or two degrees of separation from her past and the people she once loved. After she reconnects with an old\, dear friend and learns finally what kept Bryn from returning to her all those years ago\, the very underpinnings of her life are rocked to their core. Some decisions made in the past can never be put behind her\, she realizes\, and armed with this new understanding\, she sets out on a journey to reclaim what—and who—she left behind. \nAbout JANE WARD: \nJane Ward is the author of “Should Have Told You Sooner”\, “In the Aftermath”\, “The Mosaic Artist”\, and “Hunger”. \nAfter graduating from Simmons College\, Jane began working in the food and hospitality industry almost immediately\, taking on a range of roles that included planning private events and working as a weekend baker in a neighborhood bakery. \nLater\, she became a contributing writer to an online regional and seasonal food magazine\, as well as a blogger and occasional host of cooking videos for an internet recipe resource affiliated with several regional newspapers. \nMost recently\, she has contributed book reviews to Story Circle and Mom Egg Review. Jane loves to travel and often documents her trips through travel photography.
