After a bit of a social media break, This Man leading man Tyler Cook has returned with a post confirming what Passionflix fans already suspected: Jodi Ellen Malpas’ upcoming book This Woman is really good.
This Woman is the retelling of the events of This Man, but this time it’s told from Jesse Ward’s point of view. Being able to explore the story from Jesse’s perspective is intriguing. There are lots of things that happen in This Man that can’t be explained from Ava O’Shea’s perspective, so This Woman will fill in a lot of gaps. So many gaps.
Cook offered his thoughts about This Woman on Instagram, showcasing an ARC of the book along with a cameo from his adorable pup:
“For those of you wondering. Ya, it really is that good,” Cook said.
Cook has the benefit of having This Woman in hand as he gets ready for the role of Jesse Ward. Malpas talked about how she shared This Woman with Cook during her panel presentation at Passioncon. The new book gives Cook precious insight into Jesse’s thought process and helps him to understand where he’s coming from in his relentless pursuit of Ava O’Shea. This valuable insight will no doubt pay off in spades when filming resumes.
Passionistas have been eagerly awaiting Cook’s debut as the Lord of the Manor in This Man since he was announced for the role back in March. The teaser that introduces him as Jesse Ward is fun to watch:
