HarperCollins imprint Avon is to explore the lives of "an impeccably glamorous group of Essex girls" in two new novels.
Commissioning editor Caroline Hogg acquired UK and Commonwealth rights in two novels by debut author Laura Ziepe via Hannah Ferguson at The Marsh Agency.
Both follow the lives of the girls as they "navigate the ups and downs of relationships, careers and fake tan". The first is lined up for early 2013.
Caroline Hogg says, ‘I have been such a fan of 'The Only Way Essex'since it hit TV screens and so when I read Laura’s manuscript it clicked instantly with me . . . She’s wonderfully bright and a fantastic addition to the Avon list."
Essex girl Ziepe runs her own fashion business mycelebritydress.com.
