renaming books

[jmhope]

I am just curious why you are renaming some of your older books?  Bad Boys, Ahoy is being reissued as Scandalous Liasons.  Didn't you rename Reflected In You from Deeper in You?  The first book BBA first came out in  2006.  Hope your respond to my question.

Deeper in You was the working title of Reflected in You, but it was changed because some merchants felt the title was too suggestive and they hesitated to put the book out for their customers. The publisher didn’t want to risk the book not being available in some stores, so the title was changed.

 

Bad Boys Ahoy was titled by the original editor. Vendors have long felt that the title was inappropriate for the book, suggesting a comedic story instead of sexy historical romance. (The cartoon cover was also widely disliked) When the publisher decided to repackage the book to better reflect its contents, it was felt the title should also be updated to address the complaints.

 

Hope this helps!

thanks for answering my question.  After reading Scandalous Liaisons I agree the title is better and really enjoyed reading all three stories!.  Now if we could only get a release date for Captivated By You!!  I have enjoyed all your books, you are wonderful!
