"The must-read he-said she-said romance series." Huffington Post
"Kyle and I are too different. No yin and yang here. Just a bunch of discordant notes tiptoeing around the idea of a duet. But I can hope. Poets say, if it were not for hope, the human heart would break. Realists say hope is a colossal waste of time. But I have a plan. Our being apart has deleted the June-Bug software I installed last year. London Mission: Reinstall software and make the iceberg fall in love-- harder. I can do it. With only a few weeks left, the flow of sands on my hourglass makes my mission urgent."
Faster paced, with more sparks, plot, drama, and a heck more intensity: get ready for another fun ride as Juniper and Kyle fall in love over time and place. From Ann Arbor Michigan to San Francisco in the first book, to London and Ireland in Finding Juniper... catch up with Juniper and Kyle on this breathless journey of what unconditional love means.

'Juniper Smoke', Debut Novel by Sadia Ash Gains Steam in Hollywood
MarketwiredJanuary 26, 2017
HOLLYWOOD, CA--(Marketwired - January 26, 2017) - Juniper Smoke, a fresh new novel series by Sadia Ash that swept the women's lit world, will now be optioned as a major film by Cinespots, Clover Entertainment Inc. and other production companies (TBA). This is the first romance series since Fifty Shades of Grey and Me Before You to gain such momentum in Hollywood.
Juniper Smoke centers on the quirky affair of Juniper Mills and Kyle Paxton, who are as different as Red and Blue America. He is a micro-camera inventor from San Francisco and she is a sassy museum curator in Michigan. The sole caretaker of her autistic twin and comatose mother, Juniper was raised to hate all men. Until she meets Kyle. Haunted by his girlfriend's ghost who commits suicide, Kyle schedules dating like work -- with clockwork precision. When he falls for Juniper, his life spins off its axis.
The Juniper Series is written by Sadia Ash and edited by Beth Bruno. The trilogy consists of JUNIPER SMOKE and KYLE & JUNIPER (Book I & II in one 700 page e-book $1.99, Paperback $17.99) and the upcoming, FINDING JUNIPER.
"Juniper Smoke cuts a sweet story of love and nostalgia with the razor edge of modern dating," says producer Stephanie Johnson of Clover Entertainment. "It blends stark reality with the fun of a romance universe." Johnson was key in bringing the Crossfire Series by Sylvia Day to Lionsgate and says in a film world lacking diverse female voices, Juniper Smoke is a welcome addition.
"The series is an edgy drama with dark secrets, complex characters, mystical elements, and more plot twists than a Six Flags roller coaster ride," said Tedd Faraone, President of Cinespots. "We look forward to seeing Juniper Smoke in theaters." Cinespots is a distribution company that ran the novel's book trailer in 108 theaters across America.
With refrains of suicide, rape, and misogyny, Juniper Smoke tackles a lot without losing its entertainment value. The talented Ash says, "Love makes me write and loss keeps me awake at night. A recurring theme in my books is the transitory nature of love. To me, that is the saddest story of all."
Huffington Post calls Juniper Smoke, "the must read romance." Readers fell for the mysterious Kyle Paxton and made it a surprise indie hit. Robotic and inflexible, Kyle has a condition that makes him see the world in numbers and data. Schmexy Girls, a leading book blog, says: "He is an enigma, a puzzle we want to solve and see the real man behind the façade he carefully crafts. You must meet Kyle and Juniper and fall in love with their one of a kind story."
Nominated for several reader and book awards, the trilogy has fans impatient for the final book. "Juniper Smoke kept me up two nights in a row, my eyes glued to my screen as I flipped page after page. I read it on the bus, while eating dinner, making breakfast, tying my shoes, everywhere. That hasn't happened since Harry Potter," says Kika on Goodreads.
Sadia Ash, has also written Harbor Haven, a political thriller screenplay and the Time and Tide, a trilogy about Victorian female artists. "Art is fading as technology takes over and my characters, like Juniper, got lost at the intersection of art and history."
As Ash finishes the last book in the series, Clover Entertainment is currently in talks with screenwriters, producers, actors and studios about the film adaptation of Juniper Smoke.

NOW TO BE A MAJOR MOVIE IN HOLLYWOOD! “Sadia’s foray into the romance genre paid off and we get a stunning novel.” MARA WHITE, HUFFINGTON POST "My second in the Top Ten romance reads of the year!" BUZZFEED BLOG "Juniper Smoke is an odyssey, a fantastic, sexy, funny, smart and heart-stopping journey that I never wanted to end.There is just so much to love about this book that I want to yell from the rooftops for everyone to read it!" BOOK BELLAS "Juniper Smoke cuts a sweet story of love and nostalgia with the razor edge of modern dating." HOLLYWOOD PRODUCER, Stephanie Johnson "Gosh darn, Sadia Ash created BEAUTIFULLY COMPLEX characters. The ending ruined me and I want more! Sadia ash, you're a goddess.” KIKA GOODREADS This book consists of JUNIPER SMOKE and KYLE & JUNIPER (Book I & II in one). In an age of casual hook-ups, can love survive the test of time? Juniper and Kyle meet when she is dangling forty feet from a museum scaffolding, hanging on for dear life. Juniper is a sassy, nerdy curator at the History Museum of Ann Arbor. Her life has been one big sacrifice for others. Work. Home. Repeat. Raised by her mother to hate men, she worries she’ll die a frigid scholar in a musty house with an army of cats and a lake of books. Kyle Paxton is a handsome, intense and intimidating inventor of micro-cameras from San Francisco. To curb the dark memories of his ex-girlfriend (who still haunts him), he schedules dating and work with robotic precision. Not looking for love, he only hooks up with Amazonian models. When he joins the museum board, Juniper falls for him. She wants him, but knows it's going to be as hard as catching the ocean in a teacup. Juniper becomes Kyle’s obsession, but the tragic secrets of his past cloud his feelings. Juniper soon knocks Kyle’s world off its axis and their galaxies collide in this very unfairy tale. But can they overcome their differences and stop a hateful and vindictive person from tearing them apart? Juniper Smoke is a smoking hot read with fun twists, dark secrets and edge-of-your-seat drama. Nothing is as it seems and no one behaves as you would expect. Read the books that book bloggers call MUST READ are now optioned to be a major film in hollywood. |
