It's not that WordExcerpt stopped publishing the book, it's that Amazon pulled it for some reason. On their website they mentioned they are trying to work with Amazon to figure it out (they do have permissions from original author). But I guess eventually they gave up since Amazon was more effort than it was worth for them. There goes Amazon support for small publishers!

Thanks for clearing that up for me! The first ones I noticed vanishing from Amazon were their racier BL titles, so I thought Amazon might have been behind it. It's very disappointing; I was reading a fair amount of their series and prefer collected volumes.

Could It be because the series suddenly get spoiler[a 18+ chapter near the end?]

I thought about that, and it certainly wouldn't be out of the question. It would be disingenuous, though, because they sell plain old western romance novels and erotica.

WordExcerpt had many much, much sexier titles than this one, like Dirty Business, Chronicles of the Kilner Family, Look at Me, and Kiss Me, Liar. They all vanished at about the same time, including ones without any sex scenes, like A Fairy Tale for Wizards.
