2020 Publisher News: March Monthly Recap

March Theme: Romance March has been an incredible month, our theme was Romance, but it didn't get as much love as I would have liked. Due to most of the world going into self-isolation we started making "Boredom Buster" video trailers, which threw off my schedule a little bit, but we still managed to get a lot done here on the site. All our full-length book videos are up on our youtube channel and also on our newly made video…

A Case for Worst Boys By Klara Raškaj

In the romance genre, we often look for books with a particular trope (i.e. reoccurring theme). The infamous "bad boy" most likely comes to mind. Yes, readers tend to have a strange fascination with these kinds of love interests. However, nobody has really talked about the fact that many readers have very different ideas regarding what makes for a good literary bad boy. Being a personal bad boy fan myself, I was shocked to find out one day that my…

Flash-forward to adult life, and those moments of bliss curling up with a book are few and far between. ⁠ ⁠ "Back when I was a new mother trying to juggle a full-time career as a published author, reading was something I…

They were silent until they hit the first streets of Front Royal, Virginia, and then from three hundred and fifty throats poured that awful, hair-raising rebel yell. General Stonewall Jackson's plan was to secure the bridges that crossed the two…

Amazon Reviews: 5.0 out of 5 stars Should be Professional Text Normally, I read a book and the euphoria I receive from it wanes and the details fade, even though I remember it was a good read. However, Hit and Run joins a special class of books that will have you reflecting on it long after the last page. The author deftly uses his psychology background in molding the characters and their dialogues. While there is some raw language, the…
