About the Author

Erin Lockwood grew up in Castro Valley, California and attended the University of Oregon, where she graduated in 2003 with a degree in journalism. From there she moved to Denver and spent the next seven years searching for the love of her life and building the family of her dreams. It wasn't long until, with children starting preschool and more time on her hands, Erin refocused on her career, beginning with a successful entry into the world of residential real estate as a Realtor. Free time was spent reading book after book (and binge-watching the subsequent films) in the New Adult genre. Feeling hopelessly in love with her husband, she wrote him a short story leading up to their fifth wedding anniversary. That's when she discovered her tireless passion to share her experience of falling in love through fictional characters. That story evolved into the first novel in the Angles trilogy. Erin still lives in Denver, Colorado with her husband, Phil, and their three children. Learn more about Erin and the Angles Trilogy on Facebook www.facebook.com/erinlockwoodauthor, and Twitter @erinlockwoodbooks.

     I was so disappointed in how this book turned out. It could have been so much.....more. It could have been taken to the next level never did😞

    Planning Penelope! This book had everything you would hope for it to. The premise itself is so intriguing. We're getting a first person narrative from the point of view of a full-fledged stalker--a brilliant, fascinating man with a tendency toward obsessive and controlling behaviors. So the book is a multi-layered character study not only of him, but also Penelope through his eyes. It's a tall order but the author pulls it off. The plot delivers all of the suspense you would hope for as Alex loses his grip on Penelope and therefore himself over the course of the book, but the resolution is both satisfying and sweet.

    The actual writing in this book is a treat to read, too. There is such a strong sense of voice, insightful descriptions, and some of the turns of phrase are absolutely lyrical. Highly recommended!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Creeptastic and consuming!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2017
    Have you ever been so intrigued by a blurb that you just have to know more about the book immediately? That’s what happened with me and Planning Penelope. The tiny little blurb lead to me seeking out an excerpt of the story, which lead to picking up the book, which lead to me not putting it down for anything and reading it in one sitting. I mentioned this book to a friend recently and said, “It’s like getting a story from a “Criminal Minds” unsub’s perspective”. Yes, being inside the head of a sociopath like Alex is creepy and enthralling all at once.

    Alex is a beyond-genius-level geneticist working on important research developments at a university. He has a tendency to be obsessive and the most recent object of his obsession is Penelope, a student who attends his school. He knows everything about her, right down to her genetic makeup. Alex likes to influence every decision Penelope makes and tends to take credit for her success and happiness. However, his need to control every aspect of her life begins to spiral out of control and the outcome wasn’t what I was expecting—at all.

    At one point while reading, I began to question my own sanity because I started to care for Alex. The more I got to know about his upbringing and his daily life, the more sympathy I had for him. The fact that there is a happy ending for someone like Alex is a testament to the writing of Ms. Lockwood. She is so adept at making him a real (albeit disturbed) person and I have no doubt that you will be drawn into his twisted world immediately like I was. I enjoyed this brilliant book and look forward to whatever Ms. Lockwood writes next!

    I have read both of Erin Lockwood's novels and really liked them both, although they are really different from each other. Planning Penelope was mysterious and twisted. This was an easy read for me and I found myself wanting to hurry up and finish because it kept my interest. Erik has another book releasing next month and I'm sure to download it the day it is released. 💜

    4.0 out of 5 stars Planning Penelope
    Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2017
    I was so intrigued reading about this book. I had to know more. I signed up not quite knowing what to expect, but I was so glad I did.

    This book is so different from anything I have ever read. It is deliciously dark and conflicting. I have never felt so conflicted over a character. To be in the head of the stalker and to get their perspective. It excited me and creeped me out. I wanted to know more. I even sympathized with the character some. However, there are so many twists and turns you will not see coming and you will be left reeling after this book.

    This was my first book by Erin, but I will definitely be reading more.

    1.0 out of 5 stars disappointed
    Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2017
    I feel very disappointed to the point I am embarrassed. I read this book for the reason that I thought it would have jealous, possessive and stalker hero. It did but only to a point.

    SPOILERS BELOW
    Alex is a stalker and possessive but he was ok with Penelope have smex with OM because she was receiving pleasure from it. Not cool but at least it was not shown but told that it happened nine months prior to the book beginning. The book had no smex scenes between Alex and Penelope. Total bummer too. Ok, I could handle it. However what I could not handle is that they are never together including they do not end up together. So I am not ok with that. Penelope falls in love with OM. Alex has an interest in someone else who he previously thought was plain and ignored and it looks like it is going to develop into a real relationship as opposed to a stalker one.
