As many of you know, Amazon and others allow authors to publish their books with some digital pre-order options, but NOT the physical copies of the books. For those, readers must wait until the release date to order paperback or hardcover books.
I’m pleased to announce that with my Author Store, I now have the option to accept paperback, hardcover, oversize print, and audiobook preorders for new releases, YEE-HAW! The audiobook (like the Ebook) delivers via BookFunnel
For physical copies, I order author copies from Amazon and send those to readers who have purchased from my Author Store at the discounted price. NO REFUNDS POSSIBLE AFTER ORDERING.
Also, shipping has become quite slow these days, from a previous average of 10 days delivery now sometimes increasing to 3+ weeks (I don’t know why!). So be warned. YES, you get a paperback at a discount but may have to wait a wee bit longer.
Release date for CUT AND BLEED is November 1, 2026. That means ordering from me before that date gets your book shipped asap so you should receive your book within a week or so of the official release. Make sense? *s*

PREFER ORDERING ELSEWHERE?
I understand some of y’all prefer to purchase from other platforms–and that’s cool. Same price as at my online bookstore, but you’ll have to wait to receive the Ebook until November 1, 2026 when ordering from these vendors. Note: Print copies become available on/after November 1st but are priced differently.
GooglePlay Books–Cut And Bleed
NOTE ON AUDIOBOOKS…
I have uploaded audiobook files to Audible/Amazon, and to Chirp, Apple, and a dozen others. I have no control over when those books go “live” and become available, but I will send a notification when they let me know. Also note that these platforms choose their own prices, so your best deal still comes from Amy’s Author Store where you’ll get CUT AND BLEED audiobook for $9.99.
WOW, THAT was fast… I have NEVER had a same-day turn around, wow! CUT AND BLEED is already up on Audible Here.

CUT AND BLEED…Some wounds don’t stop at the skin.
A secret worth killing for. A family she’ll protect until her dying breath. Can a reluctant crime boss save all she loves before everything disappears?
September Day is on the verge of shattering. As horrific childhood flashbacks trigger more trauma and stress, the thirty-something-year-old feels her fiancé’s constant protection tightening like a cage. But sending her chosen family ahead of her on a family trip, she unknowingly gives a merciless enemy an opening to close in for the kill.
With an ice storm stranding her alone with only her dog by her side, September fights off the first assassin before chasing after a mysterious package to figure out why she’s being hunted. But what the seasoned survivor really fears is that the constant danger will never be safe for her partner and his kids.
Will September discover what she’s willing to sacrifice to stop the bloodshed?
Cut and Bleed is the white-knuckle tenth book in The September Day thriller series. If you like heroines who persevere, criminal legacies turned inside out, and four-legged loyalty, then you’ll love Amy Shojai’s breathless thriller.
