  Join us for this tour from June 22 to July 10, 2026! Book Details: Book Title: Best Friends: The Orion Sessions by Cheryl DaVeiga Category: Middle-Grade Fiction (Ages 9-13), 144 pages Genre: Contemporary Middle-Grade Fiction Publisher: Waterhole Productions LLC Release date: April 12, 2026 Format available for review: print-softback (USA only), ebook (GIFTED KINDLE, EPUB, PDF, Book Funnel download, NetGalley download), audiobook (Audible download, MP3) internationally) Will send print books out: USA Tour dates: June 22 to July 10, 2026 Content Rating: G. Written for middle-grade audience. Book Description: At thirteen, Orion Casey has stopped singing—and it’s not because she stopped loving it. After the girls everyone follows start talking about her instead of to her, she’s finished performing for anyone. Then the messages start. Anonymous. Encouraging. A little too perfectly timed. Someone’s been watching her—really seeing her—and part of Orion can’t help hoping it’s the one person she wishes would notice her back. The texts give Orion confidence she didn’t know she had—enough to discover songwriting and a new way back to her music. But as friendships shift and secrets surface, Orion begins to wonder: when the way you see yourself keeps changing based on who’s looking at you, how do you figure out who you really are? Best Friends launches The Orion Sessions, a contemporary middle-grade series about friendship, self-confidence, and learning what it means to sing—and live—for yourself. Also Available for Review:  Book Details: Book Title: Stolen: The Orion Sessions by Cheryl DaVeiga Category: Middle-Grade Fiction (Ages 9-13), Genre: Contemporary Middle-Grade Fiction Publisher: Waterhole Productions LLC Release date: July 15, 2026 Format available for review: ebook (PDF) Tour dates: June 22 to July 10, 2026 Content Rating: G. Written for middle-grade audience. Book Description: She finally found her voice. Now someone's stolen it. Thirteen-year-old Orion Casey arrives at songwriting camp ready to write, perform, and finally belong. Then she meets Ava Rae: TikTok-famous, confident, and exactly the kind of songwriter Orion hopes to be someday. When Ava Rae asks Orion to co-write a song for a real music producer, it feels like the universe finally has her back. It doesn't. The morning after their late-night session under the stars, Orion wakes up to a post blowing up on social media. Ava Rae has uploaded their song — every chord, every lyric, every melody that was more Orion's than hers — and claimed it as her own. Orion's name? Nowhere. And the notebook with all the proof? Gone. Now Orion is up against something she never saw coming. She's been written out of her own story. And in a camp full of kids who worship Ava Rae, who's going to believe her? Stolen is Book 2 of The Orion Sessions — a fast-paced trilogy for music lovers and anyone who's ever trusted the wrong person or had to fight to be believed.  Meet the Author: Cheryl DaVeiga grew up loving music—singing, writing, and dreaming in melodies. Following that passion was never framed as a real option, so she chose a path that felt defined and practical, building a career in accounting and eventually becoming a partner at a national firm. Years later, she found her way back to the music she had set aside, becoming an award-winning songwriter recognized by ASCAP and ultimately discovering the joy of writing children’s books. Across her seven picture books—stories infused with music, humor, and sing-along joy—her work has received award recognition from the Eric Hoffer Book Awards, Mom’s Choice Awards (Gold), Purple Dragonfly Book Awards, and Literary Titan. But even as she wrote those playful stories, she knew there was another one waiting—one rooted in the girl she used to be and the voice she had tucked away. That story became The Orion Sessions, a middle-grade trilogy for kids growing up in the real world—with music, of course. The Orion Sessions is the series Cheryl wishes she'd had when she was twelve: full of music, friendship, mistakes, courage, and the journey of reclaiming the voice she’d hidden to fit in. Cheryl lives in Tucson with her partner, Doug, and they spend summers in New Jersey. She still sings… like all the time. connect with the author: website ~ facebook ~ instagram ~ bookbub ~ goodreads Tour Schedule:

Real. Raw. Riveting. A true story of redemption.
Dennis does an excellent job stirring up the heart and imagination of his reader. A must read for all Christians, both young and old. — Derek Singer, Pastor, Canyon Lake Community Church, Canyon Lake, California Dennis Conrad crafts an entertaining and enduring tale in Titus and the Christian Coin. He does not sidestep the difficult, real-life questions that Christians still ask today, but rather masterfully interweaves the context of an ancient setting with relatable and timeless struggles. A great read for anyone, especially in the young adult genre. — David Finnern, award-winning novelist/journalist and author of the Lost Tales and Sunken Mysteries series. Titus and the Christian Coin, by Dennis Conrad is a wonderful story of faith and God’s sovereignty. The story is gripping and inspiring while telling the story of Christian history during the time of Constantine. It also shows the importance of hope, hard work, and forgiveness. This book should be on every middle young adult’s reading list. — Terrie Hellard-Brown, award-winning author and podcaster
Book Description:
When Titus refuses to deny his Christian faith, Roman persecution destroys his family and condemns him to a brutal life in the copper mines of northern Italy. Underground, surrounded by despair and danger, he must choose between hatred and hope, revenge and redemption. From a mine collapse to an emperor’s audience hall, Titus’s journey spans the Roman Empire during Constantine’s transformative reign. Alongside Tribune Felix, he discovers that true freedom comes through forgiveness, not force. Authentic historical details bring ancient Rome to life while timeless themes of faith, friendship, and courage inspire modern readers. This gripping adventure combines accurate historical research with compelling storytelling. Readers will witness early Christian persecution, experience Roman culture, and walk through Constantine’s palace while following Titus’s transformation from broken slave to Roman citizen. An unforgettable tale where archaeological accuracy meets heart-pounding adventure, proving that faith can triumph over the darkest circumstances and that God’s love never abandons His people.

"iRead Book Tours has been the most effective and rewarding marketing experience we've had. We’ve explored multiple strategies and worked with other virtual tour companies, but none delivered the exposure and quality of reviews that iRead provided. Our only regret is allocating too much of our marketing budget elsewhere. The iRead Book Tours team are true professionals; organized, efficient, and an absolute pleasure to work with. They made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. We highly recommend iRead Book Tours to any author or publisher looking to make a real impact." - Robyn Fonrose, Marketing Manager, New Classics Publishing
At New Shelves Books, I regularly recommend iRead Book Tours to authors and publishers because Lauren and her team consistently overdeliver. Their well-organized tours provide impactful blog features, reviews, and social media buzz that go beyond expectations. For a book tour that truly makes a difference, iRead is the way to go!
- Keri-Rae Barnum, Book Marketing Expert, New Shelves Books Not only does Lauren do a fantastic job of organizing the tour and communicating with you at every step of the way, but I found the tour hosts that signed up for her tour to be of a higher caliber. The reviews that I got on this tour were thoughtful and well-written and I noticed an uptick in sales during this tour. I also appreciated the fact that many of her tour hosts that wrote reviews posted them on multiple sites, not just on their blog or Instagram account. This is invaluable to an author. I highly recommend Lauren and iReads Book Tours. - Allyson Rice, author of The Key to Circus-Mom Highway
Lauren Carr's iReads Book Tour is amazing! She gets real results. Not only did I get thousands of new eyes on my series, but I grew my following on all social media channels as well.
