Uncovering You 5... has been delayed (sorry!)

Hey Everyone,

So crappy news.  It looks like I bit off a bit more than I can chew.  I won't make the June 20th release date for Uncovering You 5.  I will only be able to finish it for June 30th, 2014.

I need the ten extra days because of the increased length.  I know you're all waiting anxiously for it, and this is pretty bad news, but I really want to give you guys an awesome book.  Hence the extra time.  It's not much longer, and I've been working really, really hard each day to try to make the original deadline... but five days out, I think I can finally say that I'm not going to make it.

I was holding off making the announcement for as long as I could because I thought there'd be a chance I could make it.  

Anyway.  You can bitch at me in the comments.  Sorry for letting you down :(

sorry to hear that ( very sad)
I was looking forward to read it asap - but on the good note I will read it over my holidays:)
BTW I too hate rose the enabler - I think of her as his alter ego ...
I also think that he followed Lilly long before Yale - and that he was one that set it up for her to be accepted ...
I think it has to do with Lilly's father or body she found in the old house ....

Loved your book series so much. Can't wait for book 5 of Uncovering you. Must admit am waiting with bated breath for this next addition, so, am a bit disappointed. Love all the intrigue and mystery of why he has picked her. Can't wait to see where this is going.

This is the same reader experience I had with another series. After it was over, I decided to never read another series again. I took sympathy on you because on the original cover issues and read the book anyway. Never again. The series becomes very expensive and readers have enough challenges in real life, so to intentionally draw things out book after book is very unkind to say the least. But the good news is that in this delay period, I have read two complete books of similar genre that I could read on my timeline, not someone else's. Also, this protracted series method reminds me of what I heard from my grandparents when they listened to the "green Hornet" on the radio and they had to wait from week to week to hear the next installment. Those days are over and I am over protracted book series. Sorry, but I did give you a chance and bought every one of your books even though you made the free offer.

I'm so mad, I started reading the first book on Friday and finished the last one only moments ago, and I have a full time job mind you.
I LOVE the series, but I think the whole short choppy parts are starting to really getting annoying, I would have rather paid for a whole book than 3 dollars every time I turn around.

BUT, WTF is Jeremy's deal??? I want to slap him so hard and cut off his balls at the same time, I wish Lilly could learn something more about her situation instead of walking on egg shells trying to not get punished, I admire her proudness and sense of defiance but she's a smart girl, why is she letting herself be so stupid? Seriously. she knows that he'll hurt her, why not follow his rules? She said it best that she would have a better chance gaining his trust that way any how..... June 30th better come soon!

I agree I hate the whole short shppy parts and spending 3 dollars every time, I would also just like to buy one or two books.

But I really am enjoying the story, I wish Lilly would not act so stupid and get caught. One step forward, two steps back action is fustrating.

This story line reminds me of Aleatha Romig's Consequences series. There is a million/billion-aire with a need for revenge. There is a young woman who is the focus of his angst. There is even a housekeeper who is not who you think she is. Sooooo much like Consequences.
I do not see the resemblance to Captive in the Dark...

Reply
Ally
6/25/2014 02:22:47 am

April I agree this book is just like Aleatha Romig's Consequences series. While I think Ms. Edwards books are better written at least the Consequences series was only 3 full length books.

Additionally they have so many similarities like u said the housekeeper, finally being let out doors, the special event, the constant being nice only to next turn on Lilly. I really hope it does not continue to play out and end up being the same book.

I also agree their is no resemblance to Captive in the dark which is a wonderful book for anyone who likes dark erotica. There are two main books in the series and a third book looks back at the first two through the male perspective.

Looking forward to seeing how this series ends and I really hope it is not the some old story. Please give Lilly a backbone and a way to get back at Jeremy.

I am truely intrigued by these books and I love the story so far but I can't help but feel a little ripped off I have now paid over $12 these books and if i go by the timeline from the first book we're not even halfway through the story. I hate this whole installment thing that everyone is starting to do. Unfortunately I'm allready invested in this story and will most likely continue to purchase these books but I have to say Scarlett's has lost my buisness for any future series.
P.S.
I don't consider these full books Scarlett's States that there is a beginning a middle and an end but none of these books make any sense without the others especially with all the time jumping. A paragraph within a book has a beggining a middle and an end but you can't claim that it's complete without any of the others.

I'm starting to feel the same way with all these little short stories, but like a lot of others I'm already invested.

Hey Ally,
I am with you about the length of books so far. I am a little tenuous about the "I will lengthen the 5th and 6th books" idea. Does that mean there will be just a lot of repeat emotions and circumstances? I hope not.
Captive in the Dark and the second book in the series are excellent, I agree. But I think the final book (Caleb's POV) was a waste of the reader's time. Just like the POV of Anthony in the Consequences series...it could have been handled in one book instead of three.
I just don't know how this guy gets redeemed? By now, in both the other series mentioned, there is a glimmer of hope the reader had about the "alpha" men.
I think when you read the first page of Uncovering You, Part 1, we may be misinterpreting the "don't leave me...not now" plea. Is it because he "loves" her or that he needs her to complete his revenge on his "father"? Remember, she has been made the CEO of a company and he said that the red tape could take up to a year.

I love all these books and I have no problem with the wait.

Get off your high horses. Let's see all of you write an entertaining sorry every 3 weeks then have people demand longer stories and you still keep up with the time frame. At least she listened to get readers by making them longer. Enjoy the reading and quit complaining!!!

Scarlett,

Seriously!

I loved the suspense of the books, but it's time to wrap,it up. You basically used an entire book with Lilly alone and thinking the same thoughts over and over. you are repeating yourself and dragging the story on and we are no closer to any clues.

By the 4th book the heroine or main female character is confused as to whether she is strong or weak. The main male character is now looking like an evil bastard. I truly hope you can bring the readers back around to loving him or loving to hate him.

The sex is lacking as well for erotica. I don't mind the series but don't waste an entire book of bringing us no closer to seeing an ending whether it be happy or sad.

How are you going to make the readers justify forgiving him? Is this a love story? Erotica or BDSM? Right now there are no inclinations to either. It's just a woman being held hostage by a man who is either bipolar or just a psychopath. Are you stuck on how to bring out the storyline?

Just some things I think you should consider if you really want to be successful. Right now you are just pissing off your readers

I honestly think that you're trying to put this book into a category, which I don't think it needs to be... and obviously she's questioning herself it's not black and white there are so many grey areas. I'm honestly excited to see how things pan out, so take your negative comments elsewhere.

I don't think she's pissing off the readers. I happen to enjoy the suspense. And at least she only has us waiting a month and not a full year like other authors. So why dont everyone stop complaining so much and just enjoy it. If you have lost interest then read something else and leave her be.

I agree. If you don't like it, then don't read it. Just stop complaining. It's getting old and ruining it for those of us who do like the series. You knew what you were getting into when you bought the first book. 6-8 part series of approx 125 pages each. It stated it clearly in part 1 and in each other part. Also it is classed as a dark romance not erotica/ BDSM. I'm reading this for the story not for the sex scenes.

I will say I am a little confused as to why in the beginning - your first book - if we recommended and/or referred others to your book due to your amazon problems that you would give us a free copy. As of yet - I have not recvd a reply to email or a free copy as you said you would. Which I am not too happy about as I have referred over 35 people to read your series. With more than half of them have become fans and they love it! Just wondering about that!!

If she wasn't ready with this section of the book she should of waited until she had that entire book ready for publishing instead of this chapter nonsense. I will admit I was sucked in now I need to finish but this is anyway to treat your readers. I will not buy a book under these terms again.

I have said it before and I will say it again. I won't buy another serial after this. From now on, I will wait until they bundle it up. Can always get it cheaper then. For this series though, it's too late. I've already invested money and want to finish it. Am glad there are only a couple more though. It better be finished in the amount of books said and not any more either.

Okay, seriously. It's one thing that the book seems to be delayed for some reason. It's another think that the author isn't willing to communicate with her readers. I mean - facebook, blog...nothing. I didn't like this whole release-concept in the first place but I went for it because I really like the story. And now I am anxious to know what's gonna happen in book 5. But nothing. This is a matter of communication an this is a very disrespectful way to treat her readers.

Clearly everyone is upset, but you never know what could have happened. Theres a number of reasons why this book has not been released yet and it may be out of her control. So why dont everyone try to relax. Its still the 30th. She never said "my book will be released on june 30th @ midnight" so just chill. Sheesh!!!!

Yeah, but for some of us it's almost July 1. There might be a reason for that, of course - but communication is the key. Everybody was understanding when she said book 5 is delayed until June 30. And everybody would be understanding if she'd just shared what's going on.

Actually if you'd read some of these comments, not everyone has been understanding. Some have been down right rude. Here, there's still almost 7 hours left to this day, and more then that where amazon is headquartered. So as I said before, this day isn't over. Give the girl some time to breathe...

Definitely going to be the last series I purchase from her. I understand that there could be a reason and that is totally acceptable, but to not convey that to your readers is disrespectful. I can understand if she is willing to communicate but this ignorance is just... Yeah, I will buy it when it comes out, but after this one - I'm done.

Disappointing and a bit frustrating. I know that writers are at the mercy of their publishers, but the least you could do is update your readers

Ok I'm glad I came here, I don't feel so alone in my despair! It's almost 2am on the 1st July, no communication from Scarlett only makes me worry that a Stonehart type has taken her cos either way she would let is no what's going on?!

For what ever reason the book is late. Okay so what. Its not the end of the world. Why don't you take the time to read other authors or doing something else. Writing a book I'm sure isn't easy. So cut Scarlett a little bit of slack. Just saying!!!

Shes not releasing it til sometime in july. Shes not happy with what she wrote and has decided to rewrite and double up on the book making it a full novel. Im sure shes been under a lot of pressure from "all of us" which could really screw up a book

No way?? That's a shame I was really looking forward to it, I'm sure it would of been great, but an artist needs to be happy with their work & all that so I get it, I just hope we get to read it soon, really is an amazing series!!

I apologize for the inconvenience but want to make sure my readers get the best book possible. I posted this today on my Facebook and blog pages. It is an update on the status of the book. Again I truly apologize

All right guys, girls, and readers everywhere… here’s what’s up:

We’re on the eve of Uncovering You 5’s release date, and I have to make a difficult decision: whether to publish the book or not.

Is the book written? Yes. Has it been edited and is it ready to be published? Yes.

But will I do it?

No.

Here’s why:

The book does not do justice to the story. I want to bring back the intensity you loved in UY1 and UY2. I’ve read the reviews. I know that you thought UY3 and (more so) UY4 were weak.

I don’t want to follow those up with another ‘meh’ book. My current version of UY5 isn’t awful. It’s just not great. I knew it from the moment I finished it a week ago.

I’ve been mulling my options for the past few days. I tried to edit it, but that was a disaster. The book demands a rewrite. Why? Because this is the most pivotal part of the story. Everything comes out. All the questions that have been building are finally going to be answered. You’ll finally learn the depths of Stonehart’s depravity. You’ll learn why Lilly was the one chosen by him. And you’ll see a world that has only been hinted at before.

I want to do it right.

I took a few days away from writing to clear my head. Now I’m back and more inspired than ever. I wrote a new draft for UY5 and I love it. LOVE it. That same excitement I felt when writing UY1 is back. And (you could probably tell) it was missing from UY3/4.

So the next question that comes to mind is “when”. When is the book going to be released? When is it coming out?

Uncovering You 5 will be out some time in July. I don’t want to commit to a firm date yet, so that I don’t miss it again.

But I’ll keep you updated on my blog. If you haven’t yet, sign up for my mailing list so that you don’t miss it when it comes out.

Now, how am I going to make it up to you? I’ll double the length. Uncovering You 5 is going to encompass the plot I originally had for UY5 and 6. It will be full and meaty and freaking awesome. No more short serials. Instead, you get full books.

The only favor I’d ask of you… is that if you see this letter… please let other readers know. Only a tiny fraction of everyone who’s followed along with the series actually comes to my website. Those who don’t visit the blog won’t know where Uncovering You 5 is, and will get mad when they don’t find it tomorrow.

One final thought. A rushed book is forever bad, while a delayed book is eventually good. That’s the philosophy that sealed my decision. Everything I have, I owe to you. I could release a book that I’m unhappy with, which in turn would disappoint you… or, I can hold off, rewrite, and give you something awesome. Neither choice is ideal, but I’m trying to pick the lesser of two evils.

Anyway. I hope you stick around. The story of Lilly Ryder and Jeremy Stonehart is about to take on a whole new intensity.

Love,

Scarlett Edwards

June 30th, 2014.

Did anyone else experience blind rage when Lilly caught him banging the receptionist!?!? I appreciate the communication as I've been intrigued by this series so far and like the direction with the changes..
But please oh, please.. No more teenage receptionist!! It was weird... And I was starting to like him!!

We know it's been delayed,for good reason, but an update is due. You said in July it would come out, yet we've passed mid-July and no word. Keep us engaged. Give us an update. Surely you have some idea of a release date.
