Some authors break in through the audiobook side. If the audiobook version sells incredibly well—maybe because it's narrated by a famous actor—those sales count too. A strong audio performance can push the combined sales over the threshold.

Sometimes a local story goes national. If an author has deep roots in a community and that community rallies to support the launch—local media coverage, events at every indie bookstore in the state—that concentrated support can spike the numbers surprisingly high.

My father has chosen me to succeed him in the family business.
But if I want the job, it comes with stipulations. And one of those stipulations is to never mix business with pleasure. AKA, don't sleep with anyone on the job. My father leads by example, and not once have I ever seen him get involved with anyone, not even his beautiful assistant. That was an easy rule to follow...until Axel.
Axel is an expert distributor, someone who knows how to get our product past the ruthless regulations mandated by the government. My father has never had a partner, but he makes an exception for Axel because he's good at what he does.
But the second our eyes meet...there's fire. He's by far the most handsome man I've ever seen, and his I couldn't care less attitude makes me weak. But I put up boundaries and reject his advances.
But this man doesn't stop until he gets what he wants.
One night together becomes the precursor to the most passionate affair of my life. If my father discovers our secret, it'll cost me my career...and it'll cost Axel his life. To make matters worse, I'm falling for this man...and I think he's falling for me too.
Callan kissed me thoroughly, fanning the flames between us before nibbling my lip.Craving more, I opened my mouth in sweet invitation. He ran his tongue along mine, and then deepened the kiss. I clung to the sides of his shirt, swaying into him. Callan’s hands drifted down to grab my bottom and pull me fully against him. I could feel his hardness against my thigh.“Callan…” I whispered as his lips trailed down my neck.“Mhm?” Callan murmured against my skin.“Make love to me.”***After a breakup hat led to the loss of her business, Isla has a no-dating policy when it comes to coworkers. She’s a woman with something to prove, and no man is going to take it from her this time.Except, perhaps, CEO Callan.

Or will she be just another new girl?Not Just Another New Girl is created by Scarlett Rossi, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.
A sheltered woman has her first night with a stranger—only to discover he’s the ruthless billionaire who just became her new boss.
I thought he was a stranger.
A man I would never see again.
A man who made me feel wanted for the first time in my life.
We agreed it was only one night—no names, no promises, no future.
But fate has a dark sense of humor.
On my first day at my new job, I walk into the boardroom… and there he is.
Liam Hawthorne.
The ruthless billionaire CEO who owns the company—and now owns my biggest secret.
He recognizes me instantly.
And he’s not letting me pretend it never happened.
When he corners me after the meeting, his voice is low, dangerous, possessive:
“You can run from everyone else, but not from me.”
I’m hiding another truth from him—the consequences of that night.
The little heartbeat growing inside me.
And when he finds out, Liam Hawthorne will burn the world down to claim what’s his… including me.
Emily Hart has one goal: save her late mother's bakery and open a pastry shop of her own before she turns twenty five. She has never wanted anything from the Whitfield family beyond their weekly order of croissants. Then her father tells her the truth he has hidden for years. He owes the Whitfield family trust a debt so large it will cost them the bakery within the month, unless Emily agrees to something that sounds impossible. Marry Nathaniel Whitfield, the coldest, most unreachable man in Manhattan, for one year.
Nathaniel does not want a wife. He wants control of the company his grandfather built, and his grandmother's will has strapped that control to a wedding ring with a thirty day deadline. Every candidate his assistant has vetted wants his money, his name, or his photograph on their arm. Emily Hart wants none of it. She looks at him like he is a person and not a headline, and that terrifies him more than the deadline does.
What begins as a transaction, a signature, a rushed courthouse wedding that makes Emily a billionaire's wife overnight, becomes something neither of them planned for. Small kindnesses. A shared umbrella. An accidental laugh in the back of a car. But Nathaniel's ex fiancee Vanessa has not forgotten what she lost, and she is not finished trying to take it back, this time by any means necessary. Meanwhile Emily's stubborn independence and Nathaniel's instinct to control everything around him collide again and again, each fight peeling back one more layer of the walls both of them built.
As the year draws on, secrets buried in both families start to surface. A hidden clause in Eleanor's will. A document Vanessa still has.
**Title: Taming the Billionaire’s Heart**
**Blurb/Description:**
Damien Cross is the quintessential untouchable billionaire—ruthless in business, reckless in affairs, and convinced that love is a weakness. His mantra: never get attached. But everything changes when he meets Elena Hart, an ambitious interior designer who is smart, sassy, and completely unfazed by his charm.
Charged with redesigning Damien’s luxury penthouse, Elena finds herself in a heated battle of wills with the billionaire. Their fiery debates lead to unexpected attraction, blurring the lines between hate and desire. For the first time, Damien is drawn to someone who refuses to yield.
However, when an ex-girlfriend resurfaces, claiming to be pregnant, doubts arise, testing both trust and love. Elena, cautious after being hurt before, faces a tough decision: fight for Damien or protect her heart. Damien, determined to prove he’s worth the risk, is ready to do whatever it takes to keep her.
In a world where every move is scrutinized, he’s prepared to break every rule to win her over.
I’ve been keeping an eye on the New York Times Best Sellers list for years, and it’s always exciting to see debut authors make their mark. One standout is 'The Night Circus' by Erin Morgenstern, a magical tale that captivated readers with its lush storytelling and imaginative world. Another is 'The Hate U Give' by Angie Thomas, a powerful and timely novel that tackles social issues with raw emotion and authenticity. 'Where the Crawdads Sing' by Delia Owens is another debut that took the literary world by storm, blending mystery and romance in a way that resonated deeply with readers.
More recently, 'The Maidens' by Alex Michaelides made waves with its psychological thriller elements and gripping narrative. 'Such a Fun Age' by Kiley Reid is a sharp and witty exploration of race and privilege that quickly became a must-read. These debut authors not only brought fresh voices to the table but also crafted stories that left a lasting impact. It’s inspiring to see how their first works have resonated with so many people, proving that new voices can shine just as brightly as established ones.
