More about As Close to Perfect from the back cover...
She’s definitely attracted to his type and he seems as close to perfect as a guy could get. Only problem, she’d sworn off dating hot, muscled, athletic types for good.
Wronged by a string of jocks, Bree creates a hard rule: no dating athletes. Further, she enacts a list of other guidelines to protect a fragile heart. As per the rules, coffee meetups don’t count as dates, lunch doesn’t count as a date, there will be no physical displays of affection until after a real date, and no sex until he commits to an exclusive relationship.
Enter Nate. Tall and muscular with deep blue eyes and dark hair, he’s the perfect clone for the guys that hurt her before. If it walks like a duck, it’s a duck, right?
Enter Steven. She could not have ordered a more perfect person. Okay, so he is muscular, but not too tall. Be he’s also focused on his career. Definitely the mature man she’s been looking for.
When Bree allows herself to give in to her feelings, sparks fly. They’re happier than could be imagined. But being a couple is about more than just the two of them. Family, religion, location, and money all factor in.
Can they meet in the middle?
Read As Close to Perfect for 99 cents for a limited time to get swept away in this perfectly imperfect melding of lives!

I enjoyed this romance story. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed. One of the things I enjoyed about this story is how well written it is as well as how the author was able to pull me into the story. I also enjoyed the author’s attention to details that made the story come to life. The characters popped and kept me coming back for more. ...

New YA Fantasy Audiobook To be a Fae Guardian
I'm so excited that To be a Fae Guardian is on audiobook. It follows the first in the series produced by The Audio Flow and narrated again by Jillian Yetter who is perfect for this role. I could totally listen to her read this story all day!
I wanted to share some review from To be a Fae Guardian...
5* Charity, Amazon – Enchanting and Enthralling
I read the first book in this series and loved it, so I was anxious to read "to be a Fae Guardian." It did not disappoint. There is so much to love in this book: the characters, the world, the magic, the political intrigue, and the romance. I loved the world-building because it is just as stunning as it was before, and the characters are so real and life-like. I continue to love how Titania has come into her own as queen and continues to mature beyond her years. The inclusion of other magical creatures as well as Fae magic elevates the plot and adds to the mystique of Middle Earth.
"To be a Fae Guardian" is an enchanting and enthralling read, and I think readers who enjoyed the first book in the series will be enchanted by this book too.
5* Karen, Amazon
Another masterfully written book by Tricia Copeland. Once I started the book, I couldn’t wait to finish it. Tricia does a clever job of creating many emotions for you to experience as you read. Looking forward to the next book.
5* Julia, Amazon - Mature, diplomatic, engaging fantasy main character. you don't see that a lot!!
I'm definitely invested in reading the other books in this series. What a treat to see such a well-balanced cast, realistic drama that isn't forced, with a plot that in my opinion used ALL that time to do important character things.
It is so exciting as an author to get this feedback and know that readers are loving your work.
Dive into the realm of the fae with the Realm Chronicles and To be a Fae Guardian or if you haven't started the series, To be a Fae Queen!

First look at Ink and Incantation, A YA Anthology featuring books & libraries
Happy summer! I just created the first book trailer video for my young adult short story, The Story Weavers, that will be featured in the anthology, Ink and Incantation, this summer.
I'm super excited about the anthology as a great list of YA fantasy authors have contributed stories. Today I wanted to share a bit more about my story, The Story Weavers.
Here's the story blurb...
A bookstore owner and a bored teen form a mystical connection in the fantastical short story.
When Aiden’s fingers brush the bookstore owner’s, he sees a dead woman. Freaked out, he avoids the shop but ends up back there due to a cruel twist of fate. As he leaves, a strange story whispers through his mind about a medieval soldier who falls hopelessly in love with a princess and desperately tries to get her attention.
Yawn, Aiden thinks.
The bookstore owner’s eyes go wide. Yawn? Where had that voice come from?
Read The Story Weavers to discover this endearing kinship.
I created a YouTube video book trailer as well so subscribe to my channel to discover more about Ink and Incantations.

Weaver YA Fantasy Release
Tish Thawer is a personal fav author of mine so I'm always excited to share her new releases.
The post Weaver YA Fantasy Release first appeared on Tricia Copeland & Maria Jane.Excited for the YA Book Central Review
It's always awesome to get reviews but getting a review from a staff reviewer at YA Books Central is really exciting for me!
Here's what Jan Farnworth, Staff Reviewer from YA Books Central thought about To be a Fae Queen...
'Final Verdict:
This coming-of-age story contains thrilling adventures, excellent vs. evil situations, drama, loss, deceit, family, friendship, and love. The maps are a real selling point to travel through this novel and help you imagine that these places exist alongside the current locations. I also enjoyed that this character is only 15 and continues to act like one as she makes choices about the realm she has been given to lead. She is also headstrong and determined to stick by the goals she sets for how she wants to rule."
To be a Fae Queen
Happy reading and listening (audiobook lovers)!
