THIS SERIES SOUNDS RIGHT UP MY ALLEY!! Book #1, she pines for him and he doesn’t know she exists, and book #2 is about a K9 cop (and she can’t stand him!!!!) Tee hee! LOVE!! Can’t wait to find out what book #3 is about (and in the meantime, I need to read these ASAP). 😉

J.B. Salsbury – Love, Hate, Rock-n-Roll Series Reading Order

April 28, 2019 By Maryse 1 Comment

ROCK STAR ALERT!! OMG this series sounds like SO. MUCH. FUN!!! And… book #2 just went LIVE!

About book #1:

Jesse Lee is the worst!

He’s a multi-millionaire, triple-platinum-selling, Grammy-Award-winning man-slut—a worldly, self-indulgent heathen. I wouldn’t sleep with him if he were our last chance to ensure survival of the human race. The only reason I put up with him is because he’s my boss’s brother.

Whatsherface is one of those holier-than-thou types.

She’s bossy, has a horrific singing voice, and she’s so ordinary, she practically blends in with the eggshell-colored walls—the complete opposite of anyone I’d bang. The only reason I put up with her is because my career is on the line. read more

Oooooh this “genre/trope” list is after my own nerd-loving heart. Yes, I’m more known for my love of a “bad boy, bad-ass tattooed character”, but I recently read one that had me crushing (and I’m STILL crushing) hard… and he was super-smart and nerdy. *swooooooooooon* I’m in! Let’s DO THIS!!!

Paige & Janie kicked this off, when they asked for a very specific recommendation:

Paige: Please Maryse, could you possibly make a list if your (and your followers) favorite nerd hero/nerd heroine… read more

Reader Question – The book with the heroine that was banned from team sports because of her antics…

April 18, 2019 By Maryse Leave a Comment

Author Brei Betzold has one for us! Ooooh I LOVE when authors send us their own reader questions (’cause they’re readers too!) and this one sounds hilarious!! I can already imagine the antics…

She asks:

Hi Maryse,

I’m in search of a book, at this point just to make sure I hadn’t imagined it because no one seems to remember it.

I *think* I read this a few years ago but I’m not positive on the timeline.

I can only really remember one scene, the h is athletic but she’s also very competitive to the point that she wasn’t allowed to play competitive sports in school because of her antics. 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?
