The bestselling author and TV personality, 30, announced exclusively with PEOPLE that her forthcoming romance novel, The Four Engagement Rings of Sybil Rain, will hit shelves next summer via publisher Forever.
The novel follows Sybil, who can’t wait to take a vacation at the tropical resort Starling Ranch Inn. It’s a beautiful location, even if it reminds her of the honeymoon she was supposed to take with her ex-fiancé, Jamie, before the wedding got called off.
Sybil goes to the Inn, determined to still enjoy herself, until Jamie shows up on a business trip with a new “colleague” on his arm. Luckily, Sebastian, another of Sybil’s ex-fiancés, is vacationing at Starling Ranch too, and agrees to act as Sybil’s fake boyfriend to make Jamie jealous. In this rom-com, Sybil must balance both of her former partners — as well as Liam, her first failed engagement — while trying to find the love she’s needed in her life.
