The Book Guild An independent publisher delivering quality partnership and mainstream book publishing services. Submissions must therefore be commercial in nature.

An independent partnership and commercial publisher that publishes about 170 titles a year. We offer both traditional and partnership publishing, with all our titles being fully or co-funded by the company. We do not offer a self-publishing service, but authors may be asked to contribute to the publication of a book in some way, with the Book Guild funding the rest. The Book Guild has acquired a s

olid reputation for publishing books across all genres since its establishment over 35 years ago. Authors are invited to submit manuscripts in all genres for consideration. Submissions from agents are accepted but an agent is not essential, we accept author submissions direct. All submissions will first be considered for a traditional publishing model; if we do not feel that a manuscript is suitable for our traditional publishing programme, we will then consider it for some form of partnership publishing.

✨ What would happen if you won the multi-million jackpot on the National Lottery?

Helen Pond’s ordinary life changes overnight when she wins an unexpected fortune. Helen must decide how to use her new-found wealth while keeping her identity a secret...

She turns to her best friend Ana, battling cancer, who urges her to embrace the new reality. With support from lottery advisors Ben and George, Helen starts to shape a plan — but when romance blossoms between her and Ben, things become far more complicated.

After another big shock, Helen’s world begins to unravel, and soon she realises that secrecy comes at a price. A ruthless journalist is determined to expose her and, as the pressure mounts, she is forced to confront what real wealth means.

By navigating love, loss and the results of her decisions, will Helen discover what truly matters in life? ✨

An absolutely stunning book, no wonder our readers are loving it 🧡
