Hello Dear Readers, Book Lovers, Friends & Family,

The thriller fans among you will of course be extremely familiar with James Patterson (author of over 200 novels!). Which means you will likely have heard about his most recent project, a second teaming up with the United States' own saxophone playing ex-President, Mr. Bill Clinton.

In this, their second literary collaboration, the expert novelist draws on the expertise of the ex-Pres to craft what appears to be a highly entertaining, if somewhat ridiculous, crime thriller romp through the world of presidents, secret service staff, FBI agents, spies, and terrorists. There are kidnappings, there are guns with all kinds of names, there are quips and jabs, there are undercover ops.

So what does any of this have to do with Lovestruck Literature, a company based at the intersection of real life romance and literature?

Well, I'm glad you asked.

Basically, you can think of Lovestruck as your personal James Patterson. Bill Clinton may be able to share his expertise, insider knowledge, and personal insight into what details could be feasible, relevant, and entertaining for an international political crime thriller, but only you (and your sweetie, and maybe your best friend) know the ins and outs and inner workings of your real life love story.

Working with Lovestruck to craft your own personal novel or short story is like providing the quirky details and confirming the specifics that Bill Clinton provided and confirmed for James Patterson. As the blurb in the Barnes & Noble catalogue puts it:
"This fast-action adventure is a certified nail-biter from the very first page, with details only a former president could write and action only Patterson could dream up. Just imagine the president as a superhero — all the fun without the cape!"

Okay, okay, it's a bit of a stretch. But if you always envisioned your love story as a thrilling heist, or your own personal James Bond-style tale, then maybe it's not such a stretch after all... (If it was me, for example, it might go something like this: "The name's True. Sara True.")

With wedding season in full swing, now is the perfect time to check out our packages for original short stories and 100% personalized novellas. (Here's what one recent customer had to say about her custom short story.)
