Giveaway #5 - The Italian Inheritance by Louise Rose-Innes

Today's giveaway is in homage to the self-published author and features the lovely Louise Rose-Innes and her BRAND NEW release which is out today.

The blurb...

After discovering a letter written by her mother shortly before her death, Anna Crawford, a London-based maternity nurse, decides to travel to the Italian island of Capri in search of her father. What she doesn’t expect to find is that she’s heir to a vast family fortune. She’s even more surprised when the suspicious trust attorney questions her very identity.

Rafael Vialli has a suspicious nature – it’s the reason he became a lawyer. He blames his rough childhood. It may also have something to do with the fact that in the months since Giovanni Albertosi’s death, he’s been inundated with opportunistic women claiming to be his client’s missing heir.

Can Anna prove to Rafael that she really is the legitimate heir? And can Rafael trust enough to award her the inheritance… as well as his heart?

Introducing Louise...

Louise Rose-Innes is a self-published author living in Surry, United Kingdom.

Louise published her first novel, ANTARCTIC AFFAIR, in 2010 under her own publishing label, The Romance Collective. ANTARCTIC AFFAIR is a modern romance focusing on ambitious city girl, Georgina McKeller who boards an exploration vessel headed to the Antarctic in order to interview the notoriously publicity-shy adventure photographer, Taj Andrews (aka The Rebel Photographer). ANTARCTIC AFFAIR is aimed at fans of contemporary romance who like an element of adventure. It sets itself apart with its beautiful descriptions of the Arctic landscapes, its fast-paced action scenes and absorbing characters.

“I think what I liked most about it were the atmospheric details. Louise Rose-Innes's descriptions of the Antarctic Sea were so beautiful, and her knowledge of the research ship was impressive. I wondered if she had first-hand experience. If not, her research was... wow. I could almost feel the cold beauty as I read. Great secondary characters too. Wonderful, realistic dialogue. Highly recommended!”

Where to buy...

ANTARCTIC AFFAIR marked the beginning of Louise’s career as a self-published author. Louise took two weeks off work to write the novel. Louise edited, formatted and released the novel herself. The only professional help came from a friend who designed the cover for her.
Being a web marketing expert, Louise did the promotion and marketing around the release herself. This included social media marketing, networking, writing press releases, establishing profiles on major platforms such as Goodreads and SavvyAuthors and generally experimenting with a vast range of guerrilla marketing tactics to see what works best.

Louise has established a marketing blog for writers aptly named MarketingForRomanceWriters.com. Here she gives free advice on online marketing techniques including self-publishing, social media marketing, self-promotion, email marketing, CRM, web PR and everything in between.

Louise’s second self-published book, also under her own publishing label, was a short novella, titled LESSONS IN LOVE, which deals with the emotions involved when two close friends cross the line and have sex.

“It is a very well written book about a number of problems connected with lovemaking: self-esteem, physical pleasure, self-evaluation and also re-discovering of oneself. What I like most about this book is that it is not just another story of lust and passion, but an account of the emotional dimension of an intimate relationship. I think that the most important feature of this book is that the author manages to show the reader that physical attraction and passion must be supplemented by trust and respect in order to make a perfect whole which could be labelled 'LOVE'.”

THE ITALIAN INHERITANCE, Louise’s most recent novel, has just been released on Amazon and will soon be available on Barnes & Noble, iBooks, Kobo, Smashwords and All Romance Ebooks. It features a London-based nurse who suddenly discovers she’s the heir to a vast Italian family fortune. Once again an exotic setting features strongly in the novel, with vivid descriptions of the Italian island of Capri including all its Mediterranean charm and glamour.
