Virtual Book Tour + #Giveaway: The Match Disaster by Latesha Kellam @LateshaKellam @RABTBookTours
Published: March 2020
Publisher: Lulu
This is a story about a middle-aged woman who recently got divorced and thought she was open to companionship. She was very apprehensive about opening her heart again after being hurt badly by her ex-husband. To her surprise, she met someone on Match.com that seemed like the man of her dreams. They had so much in common and really enjoyed each other's company. He managed to convince her to be open to the possibility of falling in love again.
She ended up giving this man her heart only to find out that he wasn't the man of her dreams at all. He wasn't like her ex-husband but he had just as many issues. She found it difficult to be the woman that he needed her to be while not compromising her integrity and moral standards.
This story is told totally from her point of view. She is finally able to tell the love of her life everything that she wanted to say throughout their relationship. She is able to express her perspective on all the events that were occurring in their lives without feeling like she is being ungrateful for the good times but imagining the bad times.
She will take you through five years of her relationship. Will she figure out that she deserves so much better than how she was being treated? Or, will she talk herself into saving this relationship and giving her one true love another chance?
Interview with Latesha Kellam
For those
interested in exploring the subject or theme of your book, where
should they start?
Readers
can explore the theme of my book by visiting my website at
www.bestbooksbylateshakellam.com.
How did you
become involved with the subject or theme of your book?
The
subject of my book is based on some previous experiences that I had
in romantic relationships.
What were your
goals and intentions in this book, and how well do you feel you
achieved them?
I
was really motivated to share this story in order to bring light to
some of the subtle mental abuse that can happen in a long-term
relationship. The behaviors that are discussed are often overlooked
or hidden from the most important people in our lives. I feel that I
achieved my goal for this book, especially for the readers that are
self-reflective and have had similar experiences.
Anything you would like to say to your
readers and fans?
My message to my readers is that I wrote
this book at a time in my life when I was hurting and didn’t feel
good enough. After completing this story, I was able to realize that
I am good enough and I deserve so much better in relationships than
I was accepting. I want all of my readers to know that you are good
enough and you deserve to be in a relationship that is worthy of
you, just as you are.
What did you enjoy most about writing this
book?
Writing this book was very therapeutic.
Can you tell us a little bit about your
next books or what you have planned for the future?
I am currently working on a 3 part
series. These books will also be inspired by some of my life
experiences, but it will be a total fictional account. The books
will not be in the form of a memoir this time around. I look forward
to releasing the first book in this series by the end of the year.
Ho long have you been writing?
I have been writing since I was 14 years
old, so 28 years and off.
Ca you tell us
a little bit about the characters in The Match Disaster?
There
are two main characters in The Match Disaster. Thomas and Lacey.
Lacey is the narrator of the book and she is telling the story from
her point of view. Thomas is her love interest who she fell madly in
love with. He seemed like a wonderful guy on the surface but had
some personality flaws that surfaced more throughout the
relationship.
If you could spend the day with one of the
characters from The Match Disaster who would it be? Please tell us
why you chose this particular character, where you would go and what
you would do.
If I could spend the day with one of the
characters from The Match Disaster, I would spend the day with
Lacey. I want to know more about her story. I would take her to a
nice dinner where I could ask her questions about the parts of the
story she seemed to leave out.
