PREORDER: "If Books Could Kill" by Kate Eberle — with signed bookplate!
We’d kill to get our hands on Kate Eberle’s new romance novel!
Roxie Mitchell is a romance reader stuck in an unromantic life. When she jokingly wishes to live inside the plot of her favourite author’s next novel, she imagines charming meet-cutes and happy endings. But when her handsome stranger pulls a knife, she realises she’s stepped into the author’s firstcrime thriller. Cue a madcap, high-stakes adventure with Grant — an anxious English professor who might just be her perfect co-hero — as they race to survive the story and maybe, just maybe, find their own happily ever after.
Preorder your copy, with SIGNED BOOKPLATE, now! Available for pickup only from 18 June.
Praise for the book:
“If Books Could Kill is a true powerhouse. Crime, romance, humor, wink-wink nudge-nudge literary commentary, this debut from Kate Eberle has it all! If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to be trapped inside your favorite novel, or to find love where you least expect it, or to Grand Theft Auto someone (you’ll see), you will absolutely love this book. I tore through the pages!”
—Alicia Thompson, bestselling author of Love in the Time of Serial Killers
“Funny and charming. It’s your favorite murder mystery combined with your favorite romance. It hits all the classic tropes of two genres and shifts them into something new and hilarious.”
—Tasha Coryell, author of Matchmaking for Psychopaths
“If Books Could Kill is an absolute delight. A thrilling romantic romp that sparkles with wit and creativity, it was the most pure fun I’ve had while reading in a long time. Kate Eberle is a hilarious new voice, and you’ll want to live inside her world. (Even with all the murder!)”
—Laura Hankin, author of One-Star Romance
“If Books Could Kill had me (literally) laughing out loud as Eberle skillfully plays with thriller and romance tropes, spinning a delightfully engaging story. Full of action, humor and heart, this book is a send up to some of my favorite parts of adventure romance. Roxie and Grant have my heart. (And my axe.) I can’t wait to read it again.”
—Lish McBride, author of Most Likely to Murder and Hold Me Closer, Necromancer
