Bromfield will be adapting the novel into the screenplay for the film. It will be produced by Arnie Zipursky, Hannah Pillemer and Lauren MacKinlay for Neshama Entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI couldn&#8217;t be more thrilled to partner alongside Neshama and MarVista and take the world by storm with<em> Hurricane Summer<\/em>,\u201d said Bromfield. \u201cThis magical story will give a voice to the spiritual and sexual wounding that can happen when young women are forced to leave the innocence of girlhood behind. This unique coming-of-age story will journey through the breathtaking island of Jamaica to explore the deep complexities of ancestral healing, sexual shame, resilience and radical forgiveness. Through the examination of the father-daughter dynamic, <em>Hurricane Summer<\/em> tells a masterful tale of love, loss, heartbreak and destruction\u2014and the subsequent revival that is birthed through the storm of self-discovery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are thrilled to be on this journey with Asha, a talented actress who has proven herself to also be a gifted writer,\u201d said Neshama\u2019s creative producer, Lauren MacKinlay. \u201cWe cannot wait for audiences to meet Tilla and to experience the powerfully complex narrative of <em>Hurricane Summer<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hurricane Summer, the first novel from Asha Bromfield (Riverdale, Locke &amp;
