This Much Is True hits Holiday & Sports Romance Best Seller Books Lists

This Much Is True hits the best seller book lists on Amazon for #1 Holiday Romance and #14 Sports Romance and even Contemporary Romance at #63 (last checked). It’s hard to hit these kinds of rankings. It takes dedicated readers, some visibility in the way of getting the word out, and just some plain ‘old-fashioned luck and timing.

#love it!

Let’s put this into perspective. Ms. Bybee’s novel is promoted heavily on the opening page on Amazon’s site. Everywhere you go–in the romance search–her books are there. And yet, This Much Is True is in the number one spot. Nothing against Ms. Bybee; she is an author of Amazon’s Montlake Romance imprint afterall, but Holy Toledo, Batman, I’m hanging with her because of all of you. Thank you, Readers!!!

This is much more competitive category but I’m still in there. How amazingly awesome is that?

Katherine’s quotes

"You know what they say about air and water when it comes to fire, don’t you?” she asks.
Now, I’m curious. She hasn’t spoken for the last ten minutes of the drive. “What?”
“Too much air blows out the fire. Too much water destroys it.”
I nod trying to determine what she’s really comparing us to. “The idea would be to keep the flame going, right. For years?” She nods. “Like a relationship. Like a marriage.” She cringes at the word marriage. Noted. “So you need the air—to stay constant—to fan the flames of the fire, and you know, grasshopper,” I smile at her and catch sight of the corners of her mouth turning slightly upward in response to the endearment, “a hot enough fire will burn water, so you have to be careful with the water too.”
“That I do know,” she says softly. “So that’s the truth about air and water.” She sighs deep.
“Which is?”
“It’s hard to maintain the balance to keep the fire going. You have to fan the flames without putting it out with too much water. But too little water will burn the fire right up. Too much fire. Too much destruction. We’re out of control.”
“You’re talking in circles,” I say.
“No. That’s us,” she says with certainty."— Katherine Owen
