Fix You Cover Gallery will re-release FIX YOU, the two-time 2014 RITA finalist, in print and ebook formats in March, 2015. Jen Bergstrom, Vice President and Publisher for Gallery Books, is excited to publish FIX YOU, saying “Nothing is more irresistible than a great love story, and Beck hits all the right notes.” Elizabeth Harper, Publisher and President of Omnific Publishing, is pleased to see the first co-published title come from an author whose work has been recognized in the industry. “We’ve always published titles that ‘break the rules’ of the romance genre. It’s wonderful to see our books get this kind of recognition.” This announcement comes as Omnific prepares for the highly-anticipated release of Anderson’s second novel, THE JEWELER, set to hit online retailers October 28. The indie publisher, with its sharp eye for new talent, is becoming known for launching successful writing careers of previously undiscovered authors, such as Sylvain Reynard, Alice Clayton, and Emma Chase. Anderson is excited to see where this new opportunity will take her writing career. About the book, FIX YOU: In this modern-day Cinderella story with a charming twist, a young widow with two rambunctious sons falls for a gorgeous movie star. But can she handle life in the limelight? When Kelly Reynolds’s husband died two years ago, he left her to raise their two young boys. She’s barely pieced herself back together and takes refuge in her routine, running her kids around town and running the trails near their Idaho home. A chance encounter on a trail run brings famous actor Andy Pettigrew into her life. He’s clearly interested in her, but Kelly hates risk, and a love affair with Andrew is certainly tempting fate. She doesn’t fit into his Hollywood world. She doesn’t own a pair of Louboutins, and she couldn’t walk five steps in them if she did. Andrew oozes cool. She reeks of dork. Despite this, they click. But Andrew struggles with the pressures of his fame, and Kelly’s hold on a so-called normal life is already tenuous. So as much as she wants to indulge the fantasy, she doesn’t know how either of them is supposed to cope with stalkerazzi and tweet-happy fans with camera phones. Especially when she and Andrew both have secrets that seem impossible to keep… ABOUT BECK ANDERSON: Beck Anderson is the author of Fix You, a RITA Award finalist. She balances writing novels and screenplays, working full time as an educator, mothering two pre-teen males, loving one post-forty husband, and making time to walk the foothills of Boise, Idaho.
