Sphere acquires three more thrillers from number one bestseller Colleen Hoover

Sphere has acquired two brand-new thrillers from #1 Sunday Times bestseller Colleen Hoover as well as Too Late, her previously independently published psychological suspense.

Tilda Key, Editorial Director at Sphere, acquired UK & Commonwealth rights in the two new untitled thrillers from Nancy Wiese at Grand Central Publishing, on behalf of Jane Dystel at Dystel, Goderich & Bourret LLC. She also secured UK and Commonwealth rights for Too Late from Caspian Dennis at Abner Stein, on behalf of Dystel and rights director Lauren Abramo.

Key said: ‘Walk into any bookshop or talk to any book lover and Colleen Hoover’s name is sure to come up. She has had an unmatched 2022 with total domination of the charts, including Sphere’s own Verity which has now spent twelve weeks in the Sunday Times top 10. We’re proud to sign three more thrillers which are sure to be equally mind-blowing, as Verity fast approaches one million copies sold in our territories, and as we publish a beautiful collector’s edition with a brand-new ending. Colleen’s thriller publishing is off to a hugely exciting start and we can’t wait to publish these new books alongside our colleagues at Grand Central.’

Colleen Hoover is the #1 New York Times and International bestselling author of multiple novels and novellas including Verity and It Ends With Us. She has sold over 20 million copies across her titles, and lives in Texas with her husband and their three boys. She is the founder of The Bookworm Box, a non-profit book subscription service and bookstore in Sulphur Springs, Texas.
