I’m thrilled to announce I’m writing three more books for Sourcebooks Fire. I’m most grateful for their enthusiasm and support, especially that of my editor Leah Hultenschmidt. I also couldn’t do any of this without my wonderful agent, Sara Megibow, and everyone at Nelson Literary Agency. But the biggest thanks go to my readers, because you are all making this deal possible! I’m so glad you love my books.
Here are the details:
Author of CATCHING JORDAN, Miranda Kenneally’s RACING SAVANNAH, about an underprivileged girl training to be a jockey while working in the barn at a high-stakes horse farm whose on-again, off-again relationship with the owner’s son has an upstairs/downstairs effect on race day, pitched as Downton Abbey in the South, to Leah Hultenschmidt at Sourcebooks Fire, in a good deal, in a three-book deal, for publication in 2013, by Sara Megibow at Nelson Literary Agency (world).
RACING SAVANNAH will take place in the same universe as my first three books, and will feature one secondary character from CATCHING JORDAN and one secondary character from STEALING PARKER. Hint: Think younger siblings of main characters of both books.
And now, I am going to celebrate with a Diet Coke. And then get right back to writing.






Yayyyyy congrats!!!

Congrats! I read Stealing Parker, and it left me speechless! You’re for sure one of my favorites!! I fell in love with your book and I’m really looking forward to reading the rest.
Reading the books catching jordan and stealing parker were amazing because I play football for my high school team just like jordan I really thing you should write another book about. Jordan and yes I am a girl!!!!!!
Is there a follow-up for catchin jordan? I want to see how they do in college. Love the story!
Yayyy!!!!!!! congrats!!!!! catching jordan is my favorite of your books between stealing parker and things i cant forget!!! and as for racing savannah, i am a HUGE ridder myself, but i do english ridding and competing in hunter/jumper shows!!! I AM SO EXCITED!!! and earlier you mentioned that jordan and parker’s younger sibilings would be involved in racing savannah, but neither have younger sibilings, because they both have older sibilings!!!
@Emily… Younger siblings of other major characters… Ty and Will.
I love your books so much! Being a high school teenager from Tennessee I know all these places you are talking about and it’s awesome knowing all these places in a book. You’re my favorite author in the whole world. Every time I read your book I smile. Can’t wait for your next book! Catching Jordan , Stealing Parker , and Things I Can’t Forget were all amazing so I know this next will be awesome too!
