Julie needs our book help! Okay so this one could be any book in this trope, ’cause I know I’ve read this blurb over the years while creating our book roundups, so let’s make a list until the right one shows up, shall we? Unless you know it right off the bat.

She asks:

Help me please!

I read a book a really long time ago.

It was about a girl who falls for her brother’s best friend. Later on in the story her brother and his best friends go to the military. They specifically get stationed in Afghanistan. read more

Val is looking for this one! Oh I love enemies-to-lovers road trips!! But I don’t know this one. Hopefully it’s enough info to spark someone’s memory.

-one person from each couple want more while one wants to be friends
-the FMC and MMC don’t like each other

Reader Question – The arranged marriage book where they live separately & he summons her for a divorce…

Barbara is looking for this one! Oh I feel like I’ve read this one!! I love this trope. But alas, I’m hoping someone here knows it better than I do.

She asks:

Maryse,

please help me locate a book/ author from a faded memory of a blurb. I know it’s not historical, fantasy nor cowboy.

From what I recall, I believe it’s arranged marriage where the H and h live on opposite sides of US. He summons her to NY, for divorce after 10 years. I don’t think it’s what she expected. read more

Congratulations on publishing your book! Your book deserves to reach the right readers, spark curiosity, and leave a lasting impression. But with so many books competing for attention, how can you make yours stand out, attract potential readers, and encourage more people to discover your story? A captivating book trailer can help make that happen. Imagine turning your book into a short, engaging video that brings your story to life, highlights its most intriguing elements, and gives readers a reason to want to know more. A well-crafted book trailer can help increase your book’s visibility, build excitement, and encourage potential readers to explore it further. We help authors create professional book trailers designed to capture attention, generate interest, and connect their stories with the right audience. I’d love to show you a few examples and share how a book trailer could help showcase your book. Would you be open to seeing some examples?
