Possible Best Seller and Need a Publicist

Wow- wouldn't that be cool if I was right and I do have a best seller? I may actually have a chance-- by some stroke of luck. Now I am asking for some guidance in finding a publicist. Does anyone have any recommendations or know where I should start? Or if I should? My book is doing well on Amazon and I want to work fast while the excitement is still going. Here is where I am right now...do you think it is enough to justify hiring a publicist? Any advice appreciated:

(as posted to my blog http://kaybratt.blogspot.com/)

Just wanted to check in and say thank you again to my many friends and supporters! Out of over a million books on Amazon, my ranking got to #413 today!! Out of over a million-- that is amazing. I am so humbled that people really want to read my book. Also, the following has happened in the last two weeks:

An editor of a Chinese adoption magazine has asked me to submit an article about my book-- and their circulation is close to 1500 families.

A editor of a local magazine is reviewing sample chapters to possibly include in their next issue.

A man that owns a very high traffic website put my book on his blog-- causing a huge jump in sales.

An adoption forum about China has written about my book, stirring up even more sales.

As a side note--this is not about money. It is and always has been about raising awareness.
