Short-lived…or all my books are back on #KindleUnlimited

Back in June, after looking through my sales for Tidal Patterns and considering the next steps for upcoming second book, Coastal Erosion, I decided to take the Golden Shores series off Kindle Unlimited. I was selling more copies than borrowers were reading. It should stand to reason that offering the books for sale on more sites would benefit the series.

Except it didn’t.

Six weeks is a long time in self-publishing. In that period of time, readers are expecting me to be producing and publishing new content. And I felt that in that same amount of time I should have results from the experiment to consider it a success or failure.

And I’m deeming it a failure.

I’ve always been pro Kindle Unlimited because I like that the service is giving people a chance to discover me and hopefully keep reading. Losing out on that exposure was painful. I could have kept both books on the various sites until Surface Currents, the third Golden Shores book, comes out in December. But I was tired of watching sales dwindle for the series.

So, dear readers, I’m back on Kindle Unlimited and I hope you’ll come check out my sweet romance series, Golden Shores, if you haven’t had a chance yet. Set at the beach in a small town with big heart, I hope these stories put a smile on your face (and maybe encourage you to find your old tap shoes and start practicing.)

The next installment in my sweet romance series set in the Golden Isles (Jekyll Island, St. Simons Island, Sea Island) in Georgia is available for pre-order now on Amazon. The book will be released on Tuesday, August 16th.

Civil engineer Kim Meyers has built a solid career on establishing order in the midst of construction chaos. Living off the coast of Georgia as a Midwest transplant, she’s made a life for herself amidst the waves, tourists, and palm trees of the Golden Isles. Keeping her focus on her work and her community, she hasn’t had time to stop and consider how much she’s already lost. Until her former flame, Landon Beau IV, swoops in and snatches up her next project.

Landon never thought he’d set eyes on Kim again, not after she disappeared days before college graduation. But after learning her location, setting in motion a plan to get close to her again is easy. Actually confronting her to get the answers he’s needed for over a decade is difficult.

A returning cast of characters, including St. Simons Senior-itas Marie and Rose, rounds out the story and help these two figure out how to build a future on a sandy foundation.
