You Wrote It, Now Let Me Share It! Why You May Want to Do a Blog Tour! @RRBookTours1 @Shanannigans81 #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Authors #AuthorsLife #Writerslife #Books

I would love to help you promote your new book or even give an older publication a little love! Here are some fantastic services that I provide.

Blog Tours

Blog tours are an excellent way to get your book out there! Book bloggers are the life blood of our community! They are the ones that provide those much-needed reviews that are key in making the regular public stand up and take notice. Blog tour are virtual book tours that provide reviews, featured blog posts like interviews, and other essential promotional posts.

Book Blitzes

Blitzes are a fun way to celebrate a book launch, book birthday, or as a means to give your book a little boost. They’re also an effective way to advertise an upcoming blog tour or keep the momentum going after a successful tour. No matter what kind of blitz, social media is an essential part of the process, so in addition to your book being featured on blogs, bloggers also share it on all social media further spreading the word.

Cover Reveals

Cover reveals are an absolute must when looking to create buzz about an upcoming book! Not only do they get people really excited, but they’re a wonderful opportunity to have bloggers provide pre-order links for their readers.

In addition to these services, I provide a “Review Query” service, which means for a nominal fee, I provide a review opportunity to a pool of bloggers, in addition to advertising your book on my blog and website. This removes the lengthy and often discouraging process of contacting bloggers yourself.

I’m also happy to customize a package for you which can include a combination of services.

Whatever your needs, I can give your book the love and attention it deserves!

At the age of fourteen, best friends, Lilly and Dax, experience a traumatic incident. After the incident, Dax is institutionalized in a psychiatric hospital with total memory loss.  For Dax, his memory loss is an act of self-preservation.  Lilly still suffers a blocked memory of that day and has frequent nightmares.

Lilly decides to go back to Salmon Brook, her hometown, to find out the truth about the mysterious incident that left Dax in a catatonic state. Lilly has a chance meeting with a former high school classmate, Noah Hawthorne.

Review…

I liked this book! It was a good mystery and I honesty did not expect the direction it took. It was far darker than I could have anticipated. Honestly, there is nothing better than being surprised when reading a suspenseful book.

The writing was good, although there were a few niggly things that perhaps could have been smoothed out. That said, they did not detract from the story. I still enjoyed it quite a bit. I liked Lilly and Noah too, though Lilly was a bit too naive at times. Too trusting you know?

Which brings me to the villain of the piece (and no I won’t say who it is). This person is so loathsome and vile! The author did a fantastic job with the character as they literally made my skin crawl. Ugh!

If you enjoy a good mystery with some clean romance thrown in, then I highly recommend you give this one a go.

Rating… B
