Isobel Starling added a status update: FYI: I am Isobel Starling I write M/M. I write my own books. Isabella Starling is a fake brand. The cow behind it chose the name to get in my searches on Amazon. It's a well-known scammer tactic. 'Isabella' recently released a book with POC characters as 'Chelsea Millen' to get into Courtney Millan's searches. She was caught out. A blogger mistook Isabella for me and tweeted about the MM author. I'm super angry.

Isobel Starling answered Lisa's question: I sent you a question a few days ago. It seems that The Shooting Season when borrowed from Amazon is actually The Gentleman's thief. I know because I received the Gentleman's thief and had already read the story. I hope you see this so it can be sorted out at Amazon. I couldnt find any other contact info for you? Hi. I don't come onto goodreads often. Thanks for alerting me to the book file glitch. I contacted Amazon and we are sorting it out.
