It was one of those mornings for newspaper-writer/photographer Hope Creswell. The alarm clock didn’t go off and she cut her finger on broken glass. Not one to let such things get her down, Hope headed into her assignment meeting with excitement, only to leave it stunned. Her new assignment is to trail the sensational rock-star, Chase Hatton, for an article. Chase Hatton! No one knows the power that name holds for her. No one knows of the childhood friendship that blossomed into romance, only to abruptly die on the night of Hope’s senior prom. No one knows of the ache that still fills her heart.

What starts out for Chase Hatton as an average publicity trip to Chicago suddenly becomes complicated when his manager tells him that Hope Creswell will be interviewing him in the morning. He had spent eight years trying to forget Hope, and now she would be in his penthouse in a matter of hours?

When Chase opens the door to his penthouse and finds Hope on the opposite side, his heart begins beating a rhythm the rocker has yet to capture in any of his music. The smoldering embers of their former romance are fanned by their mere proximity. Will they both be burned again? Can Hope ever trust her heart to Chase after what he did? Can Chase bear to see her walk out on him a second time? And what about Hope’s boyfriend, Phillip? Where does he fit into the picture that Hope is developing?

Pointers for Successful Newspaper Pitches
From: laphillips52 | Aug 3, 2011 | 28 views
http://lynnettesbookmarketing.blogspot.com Looking for some easy publicity? Think about newspapers. Besides getting into their event calendars by announcing your speaking appearances and book signings you can pitch an article:
• Pitch for a review of your book; even during a slow news period it will help if you can give them a connection to the area. Maybe the book is set in the local area. Did you grow up or attend college nearby?
• Offer to write a piece covering an aspect of the plot; is the protagonist enmeshed in a domestic violence situation or maybe you've written an historical fiction novel and because of your research you can discuss an interesting detail or factoid connected to the story.
• Perhaps you could suggest an interview focused on the specifics of your literary career or novel.
After you've got them on the spot, try starting with your 'elevator pitch' -- that 1 or 2 sentence attention grabber.
