Tour Schedule: Alone in Paris by Ashley Earley

Alone in Paris

by Ashley Earley

Publisher: CreatSpace

Release Date: April 1, 2017

Genre: Young Adult, Contemporary, Romance

Synopsis:

Breathe, Taylor.

Taylor Clay's family isn't exactly perfect. They may look the part with the nice, big house and her dad's fancy job, but that's what's tearing them apart. That, and her dad's sudden recurring drinking problem. Though her family is close to falling apart, she never wished for something like this to happen. She never wished for her father to drive off a bridge. Especially not while they were on vacation; especially not when her and her mom were in the car with him at the time.

Breathe.

She's devastated after the fact. And it isn't helping that the papers are gossiping about how the pristine lawyer could have driven off the bridge on purpose. And just when she thinks nothing could possibly make things worse, she realizes she's left alone with no relatives to care for her. So she's alone. Her parents are dead. And she's stuck in the country her family was visiting for their vacation. She's alone in Paris.

Just breathe.

Then Nathan walks into the picture. Funny, snarky, persistent, and sometimes, just flat out rude, he annoys Taylor to no end. He won't leave her alone, but Taylor doesn't know whether or not she should push him away.

Alone in Paris Release Day! - Release Day Party

GUESS WHAT TODAY IS!!!

That's right, it's Alone in Paris release day! That's right, you can order your own copy right now. Go to Kindle & download it, or go to Amazon and order a paperback copy & have it in your hands in only a few days!

https://www.amazon.com/Alone-Paris-Standalone-Young-Romance/dp/1533527245/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1491016906&sr=8-1

I am beyond excited about sharing this book with you guys! It took 4 drafts, a lot of reformatting and rewriting to make this book as perfect as I could make it. So, I hope you guys really enjoy it.

I had my eyes set on this book cover halfway through writing it and by the time I was ready to publish, it was still there waiting for me so I would like to thank the artist, Melody Pond, for this gorgeous cover that represents my story so well.

But anyway, regarding today (the release day), I have several plans! If you're not following me on Twitter, Instagram or Tumblr yet, you need to be! Why? You may ask. BECAUSE I'M DOING A BUNCH OF COOL STUFF FOR ALONE IN PARIS' BIRTHDAY--THAT'S WHY!

Instagram (@ashley_earley): https://www.instagram.com/ashley_earley

Twitter (@ashleyc_earley): https://twitter.com/ashleyc_earley

Tumblr: http://ashleyearleybooks.tumblr.com

Most of the fun will be happening on my Instagram, but my Tumblr and Twitter are attached to my Instagram, so anything that goes up on Instagram goes up on those other social media networks as well. But I would recommend starting at my Instagram page.

Now, I'm not going to reveal what all I will be doing for the release day. If you already follow me on Instagram, then you know that I've been trying to plan a lot of things but I'm also still deciding what I'm actually going to do. I mentioned possibly doing a giveaway for Alone in Paris bookmarks, a giveaway for a signed copy of Alone in Paris, and a Q&A with me where you can ask me anything (writing questions, questions about my book, and questions you want to know about me personally)! Point is, there is going to be a lot of activity on my pages today. You won't want to miss it, so head over to my page right now because this will be going on all day!
