Cover Reveal: Facebook Jeanie By Addison Westlake

If you haven't heard of Addison Westlake, you probably haven't heard of the term 'Indie Chick-lit'. Her debut, “Christmas in Wine Country” released in November 2012, was a bestseller on Amazon for six weeks in contemporary romance, women’s fiction, humorous fiction and humor with approximately 25,000 copies downloaded.

Addison announced recently that her long-awaited book, Facebook Jeanie, would be released in both kindle and paperback on the 1st of October.

Though this books seems like it's being released around Christmas era, you can be assured that this is no seasonal read... unless Facebook in December is more appealing to you than sitting and dining with family.

Cover

Blurb:Ever wonder if you made the right choice? What if you could go back and find out?

31-year-old Clara is in a steady relationship—with Facebook. Every night after her depressing bureaucratic job (so much for saving the world), after coming home to her empty apartment Clara settles down with a pint of ice cream for some good, old-fashioned Facebook stalking. It’s her college boyfriend, The One Who Got Away. He now has a perfect marriage, perfect house, perfect life—everything she could have had if she hadn’t been so, so stupid.

But, wait. Jeanie from Facebook shows up at Clara’s job. There’s a new app they’re beta-testing and Clara’s perfect for it. That night she clicks on it and… nothing happens. But the next morning when Clara wakes up at noon, hung over, listening to her roommate blow-drying her hair and singing “Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It”, she realizes she’s back in college. With the chance to do it all over again.

Back in the world of frat parties, BFFs, and long-suffering, overlooked lab partners, join Clara as she discovers what it really means to hit the reset button on life. What could possibly go wrong? And, this time, can she get it right?

Cover Reveal: Zoe & The Moment Of Zen By Cat Lavoie

Last year, Cat Lavoie made her solid debut sweeping away fans of the Chick-lit genre (and more) away with her lead, Roxy Rules from Breaking The Rules. Following book release rules set by her, she's releasing her new novel, Zoe & And The Moment of Zen about the same time she released her first. Whilst her debut was New York-y, this has the looks of a beach-y read.

So if you are up for being swept away by this number, be sure to check out... this cover.

(Designed by Scarlett Ruggers)

Blurb: When coffee shop owner Zoey Everwood takes her obsession withex-boyfriend Braden too far everyone—except Zoey—is convinced a bit of fun in the sun at the Moment of Zen Wellness Resortwill help her get over him once andfor all.

But Zoey's relaxing vacation turns out to be anything but peaceful when she meets Shane Lawson, a resort guest who bears a striking resemblance to Braden. And things get even more complicated when the resort's owner starts spilling secrets about Zoey’s aunt Nessa, the woman who raised her. Add a snarky Wellness Coordinator and Nate Holmes—Shane's grumpy friend—to the mix, and you've got the recipe for a perfect tropical storm.

When Zoey comes back home with a new husband instead of tacky souvenirs, she must convince everyone she hasn't completely losther mind. As Zoey and Shane struggle to keep the magic alive outside the resort, Zoey discovers that she isn't the only one having trouble letting go of the past. And when Nate drops a bombshell that changes everything, Zoey must decide if the old saying is true—what happens at the Momentof Zen stays at the Moment of Zen.

Message From Cat Lavoie Hello everyone on ChickLit Pad! I am so excited to share the cover of my second novel with all of you. I hope you will enjoy reading about Zoey as much as I loved writing about her. The new book should be out in October and, like my debut novel Breaking the Rules, it will be published by Marching Ink.

There you have it. Zoe & The Moment Of Zen cover. From the look of things, this appears to be a record breaker. Hope you do check it out.

On our blog calendar we have Breaking The Rules review lined-up. If you haven't read Cat Lavoie's most accoladed debut, get it in both paperback and kindle on Amazon.
