This is a 50 book project, with 45 or
so authors, each releasing a 35-45k book with a connecting initial premise.
There will be an initial kickoff on November 1, with a Facebook party and
release of the prequel. Then on November 19, the first book, by Kit Morgan will
be released and every day, through January 7, a different book will be
released, each set in a different state or territory, and the order of release
corresponds with the order that state became a state.
The year is 1890, and the initial
premise, with a prequel written by USA Today best-selling author, Kirsten
Osbourne, is that these girls all work together in the Mill town of Lawrence,
MA in a sweat shop environment where they are all seamstresses. A fire that
levels the building and business puts the girls all out of work and without
many options. In Beckham, MA, there is a match-maker, Elizabeth, that plants
the idea with the girls of becoming mail-order brides. Each girl moves to a
different state as a mail-order bride, and eventually finds love.
We are really excited about this
project, which includes many bestselling authors, even a few New York Times and
USA Today top sellers such as Debra Holland, Kirsten Osbourne, Callie Hutton
and branching out from success in the cozy mystery genre, Leighann Dobbs. There
are also many new rising stars in the western historical genre such as Cindy
Caldwell, Hildie McQueen, Amelia Adams and Ashley Merrick, and many more.
The books share a common cover
template of an American flag draped down the left side, for branding purposes
and when the project launches in November, there will also be a dedicated page
with all the covers in order of release and buy links.
