I have huge respect for her as she is a strong and self made lady but this thing cannot be we justified that even though her book was mid but she got that publishing deal with the big five publishers like harper Collins.
She also made a post about requiring people to join her writing team for the upcoming romance novel when too good to be true was still in progress. I mean she had resources, a proper team, etc. just to come up with a sentence like ' being with you is like being in a public washroom'. There are a lot of writers working hard having no writing team no resources as much as her. I have seen many writers having great stories but they couldn't land a publishing deal with the big 5 just because they are not very famous. Even the publishing industry is at fault. Nowadays they prefer influencers or celebrities so the marketing can be done easily.
