Colleen Hoover's "Reminders of Him" is the author's next novel heading to the big screen.
Universal Pictures announced Monday that Hoover's 2022 bestselling novel will be adapted into a film.
Hoover co-wrote the screenplay with Lauren Levine, who previously produced "Bridge to Terabithia" in 2007 and the series "Confess" in 2017. The duo will also produce the film through their new production company Heartbones Entertainment, according to Universal Pictures.
Justin Baldoni on 'thoughtful and intentional' care that went into 'It Ends With Us' film"Reminders of Him" follows a woman named Kenna Rowan, who returns to her small town, hoping to reunite with her 4-year-old daughter after serving time in prison for a tragic mistake.
But Rowan learns that everyone in her daughter's life is determined to shut her out, except for Ledger Ward, a bar owner who is "one of the few remaining links" to her daughter, according to a synopsis for the novel.
As Rowan and Ward's connection grows, so does the risk of them both "losing the trust of everyone important to them," the synopsis continues. Rowan "must find a way to absolve the mistakes of her past in order to build a future out of hope and healing," the synopsis states.
In a statement shared by Universal, Hoover said that she is "thrilled to be working with Universal to bring Kenna Rowan's world to life."
"I hear from many readers who tell me they found something of themselves in her story of living with and through tragedy and doing the often messy and imperfect work of healing and turning the page to a fresh chapter in life," Hoover said. "I am excited as Reminders of Him holds a special place in my heart too."
