Yes, after talking with a friend of mine who is a professional book reviewer and a mentor in the Seton Hill MFA program, he said the book was great but the cover and title didn’t match the tone of the story. So I rebranded it. Better to get it right now I figured. I just sent you a print version of the book. =) I’m very disappointed that I don’t have any reviews up yet. I obviously went about this launch wrong. But I learned a lot for my next launch.
Thanks for the copy! I’ll keep a look out for it. Reviews are hard to come by. My publisher used Net Galley when my first book came out. When I went out on my own, I also used Net Galley (via a publicist–which wasn’t worth the money), but I don’t do that anymore. They’re kind of expensive and the reviews aren’t always the greatest. Best bet is to find a group who likes your genre and give ebooks away for an honest review. I see you’re on KU, so maybe you’ll get lucky and get some reviews there. Good luck!

Yes, getting reviews has been difficult. I am going to plan ahead a lot better for the next book release. I’m so glad to hear from you!

You could look into getting a review here: https://indtale.com/. I don’t believe they just do romance. It’s free to submit in any case.

I will take a look at that. I just submitted to Blue Ink and Kirkus. Thanks Stacy!
So… you changed the name of your novel? Because I could have sworn you announced the release of another book earlier.
