Last night I had the lovely opportunity to crash a book club about an hour from where I live and hear them discuss this book. The host reached out to me a couple months ago and asked if I’d be willing to join them. I thought... why not?! And y’all, it was so much FUN. These women were an absolute blast, and it was so amazing to be in a room of fellow bookworms who are just as passionate about reading as I am. AND, it seems I was their first indie book! They don’t normally read romance, either, so it was extra fun to hear them talk about that aspect. They loved Cooper’s term for her... uh... well, let’s just say the term is “detonator.” 😏😂👏 ⁣
⁣
I loved hearing them talk about the main theme in this book, which is depression. It seems everyone has either had experience with it themselves or has loved someone through it. That’s why it was so important for me to bring it to light in a romance book. It’s something ALL of us have touched or been touched by, and yet, no one speaks of it. Why?⁣
⁣
Anyway, it was just so much fun and I told them to add me to the group because I wanted to keep coming! 😂⁣
⁣
Are you in a book club? How do you decide which book is read and discussed each month?

“Selfish. What a silly word. Should you give to the ones you love? Absolutely. But should you lose yourself in order to better their lives at the expense of your own? Never.” ⁣
⁣
According to Kindle, this is the most highlighted quote in On the Rocks. This tells me we all have sacrificed ourselves for the ones we love, and that we’re starting to realize that there’s a difference in helping the ones we love in a healthy manner versus losing who we are in an attempt to make someone else feel better. ⁣
⁣
Be selfish sometimes. ⁣
⁣
If you don’t look out for you, no one else will. 🧡 ⁣

Name one book that you purchased for the cover alone.⁣
⁣
I put a lot of time and thought into each of my covers. Working with @perrywinklephoto makes my job easier, but we spend a lot of time talking about the mood, tone, setting, models, outfits, colors and more to make the vision come to life. And even when I first started writing, I worked with a friend from college to shoot the vision I had, too (Tag Chaser, Song Chaser, Black Number Four). Weightless was actually a photo I purchased off of a stock site, one that I saw and immediately gasped at and whispered, “That’s her. That’s my Natalie.” ⁣
⁣
To me, the cover is your one chance to get a reader to stop scrolling on social media, or stop browsing on Amazon, or stop strolling by books in the store. If it calls to them, speaks to them, makes them feel something? Well, then you’ve got a shot of getting them to read the story inside.⁣
⁣
So what about you? Which covers seem to pull you in most? Couples? Illustrated? Black and white? Dark and mysterious? Sweet and romantic? Angsty and intense?
