Book Description: “The first thing you need to know: They’re not antiques. The second thing you need to know: I’m not his daughter.” Abandoned first by her father, and then by her mother, Frankie has been left in the care of her deeply religious grandmother. When her grandmother’s religious convictions tip into delusion, Frankie decides to run away. Life on the street in Toronto is hard, and with winter coming, it gets tougher. This is when Frankie first meets Francis, a man old enough to be her father. He starts training her in “the game,” as she comes to call it; buying, stealing, and reselling “inventory” at inflated prices. Through winter, spring, and early summer, the two become a team, traveling around small towns and villages in southern Ontario. As Frankie discovers, life on the road holds dangers she can’t anticipate, and her precarious world tips into disaster when Francis abandons her in an unfamiliar town. Betrayed, alone, and deserted, Frankie realizes she’s in a dangerous situation — will she be able to find her way out on her own? The Antique Picker’s Daughter explores youth homelessness, human trafficking, and one young woman’s search for safety.

  Join us for this tour from Sep 8 to Sep 28, 2026! Book Details: Book Title: ALTERED (JUSTIN WRIGHT SUSPENSE SERIES Book 1) by Rob Kaufman Category: Adult Fiction (18 +), 270 pages Genre: Psychological Thriller, Suspense Publisher: Rob Kaufman Release date: May 2023 Formats Available for Review: print-softback (USA only), or ebook (EPUB, PDF or BookFunnel download), or audiobook (Audible download) internationally Tour dates: Sep 8 to Sep 28, 2026 Content Rating: PG-13 +M: ALTERED has a few profanities and alludes very subtly to abuse but never gets graphic or says the words. "Trauma" is used by Justin, the psychiatrist. Book Description: When Frank Devlin walks into Justin Wright's office, the renowned New York City psychiatrist decides to take on one of the most challenging cases of his career. Justin is determined to help Frank, a young man with multiple personalities (“alters”), live a happier, more fulfilling life. Little does he know that Frank and his alters are secretly weaving themselves into Justin’s life in ways that will affect the Wright family forever. A suspense-filled story driven by emotion, angst, and the ultimate revenge, “Altered” takes readers down a twisted path of uncertainty and mind games—leaving them shocked, heartbroken, and questioning what could possibly come next... CHECK OUT THE ENTIRE JUSTIN WRIGHT SUSPENSE SERIES:  Book Details: Book Title: JADED (JUSTIN WRIGHT SUSPENSE SERIES Book 2) by Rob Kaufman Category: Adult Fiction (18 +), 246 pages Genre: Psychological Thriller, Suspense Publisher: Rob Kaufman Release date: March 2023 Content Rating: PG-13 +M Jade, a beautiful young woman suffering from depression and despair, is trying to escape her past… a former life that catches up with her during every full moon. Justin’s biggest obstacle to helping her is Jade herself. The closer he gets to the root of her problems, the further away she pushes him — leaving Justin questioning both her sincerity and his own professional skills. As with “Altered”, this novel is packed with suspense and emotion, mainly due to people from Justin’s past, including Frank Devlin, the man who has made himself the bane of the Wright family’s existence. Once again, readers are led down a road that keeps them wondering what is real, who did what, and when will Justin and his family finally find the peace they deserve?  Book Details: Book Title: AVENGED (JUSTIN WRIGHT SUSPENSE SERIES Book 3) by Rob Kaufman Category: Adult Fiction (18 +), 256 pages Genre: Psychological Thriller, Suspense Publisher: Rob Kaufman Release date: June 2023 Content Rating: PG-13 +M SO MANY THINGS START TO MAKE SENSE IN "AVENGED" — BOOK 3 of the Justin Wright Suspense Series. It all starts with Richard Davis, Justin's new patient seeking help for uncontrollable anger and hostility. He can barely walk a New York City street without exploding at the people around him. Can Justin relieve him of his negativity or is he too consumed with his own son Michael — a boy found after seven years in captivity who is now void of any compassion or joy? As with the first two books, "Avenged" is teeming with emotion and suspense, not only because of Richard Davis and Michael's issues but because Frank Devlin and Jade continue to haunt Justin and Mandy from afar. As with all Rob Kaufman books, readers get the ride of their lives on a roller coaster of thrills and uncertainty until the very last page.  Book Details: Book Title: SCARED (JUSTIN WRIGHT SUSPENSE SERIES Book 4) by Rob Kaufman Category: Adult Fiction (18 +), 266 pages Genre: Psychological Thriller, Suspense Publisher: Rob Kaufman Release date: Jan 2024 Content Rating: PG-13 +M IT’S BEEN 15 YEARS SINCE JUSTIN’S NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE, and life has changed dramatically for the Wright family. Michael, now a psychologist, has a past that’s catching up with him at the same time an unsatisfied patient is planning his revenge. Justin, now practicing from his home office, has a patient consumed by the fear of death — a young man scared of just about everything — including fear itself. As both father and son deal with their patients’ problems and their own internal challenges, they also struggle daily with Mandy’s health issue, a potentially deadly illness that threatens to take away the most important woman in their lives. Like every other Justin Wright book, “Scared” brings you into a suspense-filled world loaded with emotion, uncertainty and, of course, mind games. It’s a story rife with complicated people, some who are not only vengeful, but scared — of both life...and death.  Book Details: Book Title: DECEIVED (JUSTIN WRIGHT SUSPENSE SERIES Book 5) by Rob Kaufman Category: Adult Fiction (18 +), 250 pages Genre: Psychological Thriller, Suspense Publisher: Rob Kaufman Release date: May 2024 Content Rating: PG-13 +M IN THE MIDST OF THEIR GRIEF, THE WRIGHT FAMILY IS PUSHED TO THEIR LIMITS by a stranger who will change their lives forever. A single phone call sets off a chain of events that will test Justin’s every belief. When a mysterious woman claims kinship, Justin’s instincts scream deception. But when they meet, her mesmerizing appearance shatters his doubts, unveiling a truth he never saw coming. Justin keeps the woman’s existence hidden from Michael as his son grapples with a relentless stalker, a malicious wife, and a patient who suffers from a compulsive disorder — an affliction that leads her down a path from which she’ll never return. In this fifth Justin Wright novel, secrets collide and loyalties are tested with unexpected twists that propel you deep into a world of suspense and intrigue where nothing — and no one — is as it seems.  Book Details: Book Title: REVEALED (JUSTIN WRIGHT SUSPENSE SERIES Book 6) by Rob Kaufman Category: Adult Fiction (18 +), 250 pages Genre: Psychological Thriller, Suspense Publisher: Rob Kaufman Release date: Sep 2024 Content Rating: PG-13 +M IN THE GRIPPING CONCLUSION OF THE JUSTIN WRIGHT SUSPENSE SERIES, every burning question and hidden secret comes to light. As time marches on, the Wright family faces numerous changes, yet one mystery endures: the whereabouts of Daniel. Was Monica responsible for his disappearance? Should Benji be implicated, or has Barb wrongly accused him? Haunted by echoes of his own past abduction, Michael grapples with his son’s absence, while also trying to help a patient plagued by Paranoid Personality Disorder—a man whose deep mistrust challenges Michael in unexpected ways. Meanwhile, Justin contends with the prison release of Richard Davis, something that rekindles old fears and compels him to constantly watch his back. This sixth and final book brings you on the most suspenseful journey yet, one that concludes with events that will change the Wright family forever. It’s a story of psychological thrills and mystery that carries you into the past, the future, and back to the present, all told through the eyes of someone you might consider a stranger—or would you?

Drawing from more than twenty years of one on one adventures with his six grandchildren, Perry Solomon shows how small, consistent moments of presence, curiosity, and love can shape a child’s confidence, character, and sense of belonging. Through warm storytelling and practical guidance, Solomon demonstrates how every grandfather can become a trusted mentor and steady source of encouragement.

The book also offers down to earth advice on navigating family dynamics with respect, listening with intention, and fostering open communication across generations. At the heart of Grandpa Day is a simple purpose. When grandfathers give their time, attention, and unconditional love, grandchildren grow into resilient and capable young people who feel secure and valued. In return, grandfathers experience personal growth, deepened emotional connections, and a renewed sense of purpose. Blending personal memoir with practical wisdom, Grandpa Day celebrates the extraordinary impact of ordinary moments and invites every grandfather to embrace this role with patience, joy, and intention. It is both a guidebook and a legacy of love.  Meet the Author: Perry Solomon is a proud grandfather whose greatest joy comes from the close, loving relationships he shares with his six grandchildren.

As he writes this book, his youngest grandchild, Opal, is eight years old, and his eldest, Cassie, is twenty-one. Perry believes that nurturing strong bonds, creating joyful memories, and offering steady support are among the most important gifts a grandfather can give. Perry and his wife, Marie, live in Santa Monica, California. He is the stepfather of two daughters, Candace and Sabrina. Together, their growing family continues to be his greatest inspiration and the heart of his legacy. A successful serial entrepreneur, Perry has spent decades building and advising companies across retail, distribution, manufacturing, consumer electronics, business services, and home products.

Through Grandpa Day, he shares practical advice, heartfelt stories, and meaningful activities designed to help grandfathers, grandparents, and seniors nurture love, communication, and confidence in their grandchildren.

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 lyour Schedule:

Book Details: Book Title: A Soul on Trial: A Marine Corps Mystery at the Turn of the Twentieth Century by Robin R. Cutler Category: Adult Non-Fiction (18+), 365 pages (442 with back matter) Genre: Literary Non-Fiction, History Publisher: View Tree Press Release date: May 20, 2026 Formats Available for Review: print (softback, - USA only), ebook (EPUB, PDF) Tour dates: June 15 to July 10, 2026 Content Rating: PG +M: The M rating is because the book is about whether or not a young man committed suicide. There is a brawl and an autopsy described in detail but minimal violence, no sex no abuse, adultery or abortion. Book Description: Secrets, Spirits, Scandal, and a Nation Watching A murder mystery, ghost story and courtroom drama from the Progressive Era The death of a young Marine Corps lieutenant in 1907 creates a sensation when his mother, his sister, and his ghost challenge the Navy's suicide verdict. A Soul on Trial is the true story of an unprecedented conflict between democratic values and military justice in the age when the modern mass media was born. It is also a tale of the power of the press a century ago, and of the lives of young officers whose private battles were often as challenging as their professional ones. After her son died under mysterious circumstances in 1907, Rosa Brant Sutton came 3000 miles from Portland, Oregon, to challenge the Navy’s suicide finding. Inspired by her Catholic faith and several alleged postmortem visits from her beloved “Jimmie,” she embarked on a crusade to save his soul from the stigma of a mortal sin– a sin that would keep him out of heaven. Rosa’s spiritual journey soon became a political one that would take her through the corridors of power in Washington, D.C., to a courtroom in Annapolis, and, finally, face-to-face with Jimmie’s corpse in Arlington Cemetery. This book also explores the values of a proud and honorable Marine Corps forced into the center of public discourse by Rosa’s uninhibited pursuit of justice. The Corps’ brilliant judge advocate, Henry Leonard, already a combat hero at thirty-three, was the perfect foil for Mrs. Sutton, her renowned attorney, and America’s relentless reporters when the naval inquiry opened in Annapolis in 1909. By then, millions of Americans had a stake in this confrontation between a patriotic mother and her own government in a military forum. Rosa’s story was irresistible to Progressive Era journalists and high-ranking military officials who joined with members of Congress in a search for verifiable truth that played out on a national stage. In order to save her son’s reputation and defend her own sanity, Rosa ultimately turned to James Cardinal Gibbons, the highest official in the American Catholic Church, and Dr. James Hervey Hyslop, America’s foremost psychical researcher. Hyslop commissioned a detailed field study of her paranormal experiences as part of his research on whether or not the dead communicate with the living. With the press corps as a catalyst, these two men helped Rosa achieve an American brand of justice, as well as redemption both for Jimmie and for herself. As H. Michael Gelfand wrote in the Journal of American History, A Soul on Trial explores “one of the most remarkable cases of a civilian challenging the power of the U.S. military in American history… [and it is] a testament to the power that one ordinary individual can wield when determined to seek justice.” Plus, “. . . it is narrative history at its finest.”  Meet the Author: Historian, filmmaker and blogger, Robin Cutler’s early life was split between Manhattan and a farm in rural Virginia. An only child, she never felt like one because of the menagerie collected by her mother, Jane Hall, a former screenwriter at MGM. Robin’s siblings included a rescued ocelot, German Shepherds, farm cats, snooty cats, and a screech owl (Sidney), who could not fly but travelled on Eastern Airlines in a modified Nantucket basket. Robin decided she wanted to be a historian in the ninth grade. Highlights of her career include working for the National Endowment for Humanities, co-producing an Emmy-nominated dramatic series for PBS, collaborating with several Native American tribes to chronicle their histories and culture on film and video, and publishing three nonfiction books. She discovered the extraordinary story told in A Soul on Trial in family papers. She was astonished that Rosa Sutton’s effort to learn the truth about her oldest son’s death created a national sensation between 1907 and 1910.

In the wake of the carnoraxis attack on Ivystone Citadel, Princess Celeste Westergaard's battle for her future has only just begun.

From glittering courts to bloodstained battlefields, Celeste must walk a knife's edge between duty and desire, deception and truth. Because if the tsar discovers who she really is, he won't just come for her magic, he'll come for her soul.

"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. Lauren has a dedicated group of reviewers and bloggers who are competent and reliable - no more wasted ARCs mailed out with no results.
