Most of the books are over 500 pages,and some 600 and to publish a book, it's pricey. They aren't small paperbacks. They're the deluxe books that are bigger than the ones you find in a book store. 6 Inches by 9 inches.
Unfortunately, I don't get to set the price. Amazon tells me the minimum I have to charge, and that's generally what I pick as the sale price. They won't let me go below 17.99 for most of the books due to size. Out of that, I only make 3.00.
I wish I could lower the prices, but I simply can't. The only thing I really completely control is the e-books. I'm sorry. :(
When I wrote the first book, Sinner Repent, I didn't plan to write any more books, but everyone wanted to learn more about Luke and Nate, thus they were born. Then when I told Nate's story, everyone wanted to learn more about Avalon.
Hi, Just finished Dying to Love and have left reviews on Amazon.co.uk. Loved them as always but July is sooo far away to impatiently wait for the next book after leaving the story in a exchanger. I know the Littlemoon book will feature Elizabeth but I will be counting the days to Revenge has Come. Thank you for such a wonderful journey.
Evelyn! Thank you for leaving a comment! I have good news. I actually hated leaving you all hanging, so the FBI book will be out one month earlier in June. I wish you could give it to you sooner, but a girl has to sleep and shower! hahahahha.
I'm so glad you loved it! Thank you for the reviews! I promise you'll get some relief with the Littlemoon book!
Keep reading, and message me any time! I love hearing from you!
Hi, Just finished reading Atonement. Loved it. The premise is so different, the characters new and old are wonderful,nice guys who happen to be killers along with Dakota and Sarah who have their own style. I hope you decide to do a series for them as I would love to get to know them all better and continue with their stories for a long time to come.
It's here to stay! So many people have messaged me to tell me that they loved the bad boys doing good deeds that I can't help but give you more books! They are so fun to write!
I hope they are here for a long time to come too! Thank you for messaging me! I love hearing from all of you.
All of my books will ALWAYS be available on KU. That was an amazon issue. I don't control when they release it. I pick the date, I submit the manuscript, and then, it's out of my hands.
For future reference, give it a day or so before worrying. If it's a high-release day, sometimes, they lag a little. I'll always get you guys the book within the first day on KU--or try to :)
Trying to figure out what book Bishop and Lucien move to Salem but can’t figure it out. It’s after Oracle Hunting….i keep skimming to try and figure it out but waving the white flag…
I wish I could rattle that off the top of my head. LOL. Unfortunately, I don't have an answer for you. I know the last Oracle book was in 2017, so I'm going to say the Littlemoon book right after that. That would be either Lost Souls or Found Curses.
Sorry that I can't give you a definitive answer on that.
I love this series! I'd like to buy a paperback for a friend. Why are the paperbacks so expensive?

Thanks for explaining and thanks for responding.
ReplyDeleteNo problem :)
DeleteHi Kelley,
ReplyDeleteI love, love your books! I have read them all. The only question I have is why was the Carter Chronicles series not continued.
It was only a trilogy, and it spun off to the Oracle series. Currently, Oracle Rising is available, and Oracle Seeing is out this summer :)
DeleteHere is book 1 in the spin off series.

Here is book 2.

Hi. Will Sin So Deep be on KU? It doesn't look like it is right now. Thanks
