An Experiment: Originally Jake and Kathryn's story was written as an adult paranormal romance. During the pitching process, it was suggested this story might better suit to a young-adult audience. PaperBox Books accepted both versions for publishing.
The dual version includes both renditions of Kathryn and Jake's story. The original adult paranormal version called 'The Problem with Jake' and the young adult version called ‘The Trouble with Jake'.
A great idea for book clubs, writers and folks interested to see the difference in genres and how they can be used to create unique novels, based on the same premise.
While the main plot is the same, the scenes play out differently and the sub-plots have changed because of Kathryn's age, experience and reactions. In the adult romance, Kathryn is 29, engaged, owns a townhouse and is employed as a regional manager. In the young adult version, Kathryn attends university, isn't engaged yet (officially anyway) and still lives with her parents when she's not at school.
