Great! No ARCs, I am the only person who holds a printed book and I just received it today. I uploaded the new cover a week or more ago. Here is the link:

And thanks for the help!

Katie(babs) (katiebabs) Hi all,

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask. But the rights for a book I published with another company came back to me because the publisher closed. I re-released the book with a new publisher, which was released today.

It has a new cover and the URL link to the book needs to be change to show the new publisher and not the old one.

Can someone change it?

It's this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...

And the book is now published here:http://ravenousromance.com/lesbian/lo...

Thanks

KT

KT, a new publication with a new publisher needs a new edition, not edits to the existing one(s). Once the new edition had been created and combined with its fellows, you'll be able to set it as primary.

Actually, it looks like you already have a new edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

As the author, you have the ability to change which edition of the book is the default, which will come up in searches by title and show on your author profile. Here's how: http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/31...

We only add URLs if they have something extra (like an excerpt, for example). That's a bare sales link, so there's no reason for it to be in the book's record.

We do not change covers. Instead we add an alternate-cover edition (ARC). Please see this post for more information.

I have added ARCs for both versions of your book, here:
Kindle - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
ebook - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

You can set the default edition by following the instructions here.

#160 also done.


message 157: by Wendy (new)

Wendy Sparkes (wendysparkes) | 23 comments Please could a cover be added to:

To Live and to Die
http://www.amazon.co.uk/To-Die-Live-S...

Also, could the title be changed from incorrect To Live and to Die,
to correct title: To Die and Live

Thank you!


message 158: by Susie (new)

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments #162 done. Have also added the Kindle version, as noticed it wasn't on here yet.

I did a bit of research and it seems that several online bookstores are selling that ebook with the wrong title but with the cover the same as is on Amazon, so updated. :)

FYI, an alternate-cover edition and an ARC (advanced reader copy) are not the same thing, although sometimes we have to create alternate-cover editions because there are ARCs.

Sorry, blond moment. No idea why I got my acronyms confused there!

Alternate-cover edition = ACE
Advanced reader copy = ARC

Think I have them fixed! :)

Cover: http://www.fictiondb.com/coversth/th_...

Also, this is probably not the right thread to post this, but since I can't find a corresponding thread... The missing synopsis of the book:

Anna annoyed him -- before they'd even met!

She had heard about Mark Findlay--from his sister, who had hired Anna in Mark's absence.

Anna had no way of knowing he had returned. Nor that the man she'd so disastrously kept encountering, and who thought she was out o ensnare him, was in fact the fabled big boss, chairman of Mark Findlay International.

When she found out who he was and that she was to work for him, Anna knew she was in for big trouble. And heartbreak!

Thank you! :)

I would upload my copy, but it's a Greek edition and entirely different. ;)

I have found another photo link which is a bit clearer. I don't know if it's acceptable though: http://cc.pbsstatic.com/xl/14/7514/97...

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Ah! Well, if we don't have THAT cover then, please share... :)

pbstatic is PhotoBucket IIRC, so only really OK if it's your own image - the copyright ownership of images on photosharing sites can get, problematic.

Found a nice clear image for the second on ol' Amazon though so it now has a shiny(ish) cover image too :)

Not done Chelssie - you just added a photo to the area that is specifically NOT for covers...

To deal with requests like this you need to create a whole new edition with the new cover but no ASIN/ISBN (all the other data should be identical though). Once created this new edition will need to be combined with the old one. When combined if the author is the requestor, link the new edition back here with the instructions on setting Primary editions.

Hope that helps you :) (PS fixed that misplaced photo.)

Summary:
FLASH OF GENIUS

It was brilliant! One look at her cluttered shop, one ride in her temperamental car, one gourmet dinner of peanut butter and jelly, and one long visit to her "when's the wedding?" parents would send Jack Martin running! Serendipity Samantha, inventor extraordinaire, strikes again.

She didn't cook, clean, or care to learn how. She was an inventor, period. And when a flash of genius struck, she centered her complete attention on inventing. Nothing could distract her from the task at hand--until she met Jack. His hot kisses made her senses reel as he applied for his own patent... on desire.

Summary:
It was a long way from Scot's Cove to Hollywood

But in two years, Sharon Ott had learned enough about the world to know what Brad Fielding wanted. He was the new vice-president of a highly successful record company, and she was the label's hottest singing star. And in the music world, video was the name of the game.

Sharon feared the idea of making a video. Her mentor had warned her against them, feeling a flashy image would be too much at odds with Sharon's simple North Carolina mountain upbringing. But now her mentor was gone and this was one career move she would have to decide by pure instinct. And her instincts warned her not to trust Brad.

Summary:
ALL IN THE FAMILY

When is attention from a gorgeous man annoying? kelly Sullivan could answer that question in one word: ex-brother-in-law. She was finally starting to enjoy her hard-won independence, and the last thing she needed was another Sullivan man to romance her. But there was a question Kelly couldn't answer. Of all the men in the world, why was Beau the one she couldn't resist?

Beau, the family enigma, was notorious for his footloose life-style. His private detective work took him around the world, but after one look into Kelly's midnight-blue eyes, his feet mysteriously lost their itch. It was time for some detecting of the most private sort.


Thank you! :)

Only later, when her head clears, does she realize that her heart is in trouble. For she's enthralled by Cliff's sensual vitality, by his unexpected tenderness. She adores his three lively children. And she doesn't understand why he refuses to make that final commitment, that binding promise that would heal her wounded heart and propel them toward a shining future.

Yet when she surrenders to his mischievous smile and muscled sleekness, he accuses her of procuring his funds with her favors!

Grace's feelings arc highly inappropriate! But when she confesses a fear of flying, Luke displays unexpected chivalry and gallantly escorts her on the publicity tour for her new book. Soon his intelligence, warmth, and extraordinary virility seem to banish the enormous differences between them. Until a raucous party provokes a lovers' quarrel ... and Grace's rules of good behavior prove painfully inadequate in addressing matters of the heart ...

Soon, however, her embarrassment is replaced by a sensual awareness she's thought long dead ... by a throbbing yearning like that which once painfully blinded her to realities, and brought heartache and despair ...

From those first tension-filled moments, Lane Remington begins a passionate, persistent campaign to convince Elizabeth that the ghosts of the past are no match for his powerful presence. Yet she refuses to surrender to his seductive kisses. For though Lane brings wonder and ecstasy to her life, he makes no promises about the future ...

But Boone won't go away! Soon Meg's catering to his every whim--even hiring a time-management consultant to turn her into the efficiently organized woman she thinks he wants.

But Jules won't leave her alone! Like a modern Rhett Butler, he sweeps her away with cynical charm. Like a jealous lover, Ile accuses her of enticing his best friend. Like the rogue that he is, he smoothly seduces her under moonlit magnolias with his manly tenderness. Still, April knows his troubled past won't allow him to trust her. And without trust, he'll never truly love ...
