Monday Early Bird Book Releases – 11-09-2020

By 44 Comments

HAPPY MONDAY!! It’s a short list today, but I’ll keep checking for more and add them in as the day continues. 😉

THREE THINGS:

1.) I added more white decorations to my Christmas tree (a bunch more poinsettias) and cute ornaments like a fluffy owl, and a skiing squirrel and also some curly squiggles and it’s so fluffy now. I LOVE IT!!! So much better. 😀 And now it’s officially finished. Here’s a side by side of the tree last week to this week.

2.) I watched The Secret: Dare to Dream this weekend and it was pretty great. Kind of has that Hallmark feel to it, and a great message too! read more

Reader Question… Solved! The book about the arranged marriage and she “hears him” with other women…

By 9 Comments

Linda needs our book help! ROAR!!!! Arranged marriage and he does some REALLY RUDE things!! GASP.

I’ve read a few like this in fact (arranged marriage and him stepping out on it anyway), and the other one was when they weren’t together, but she still lived there (ugh that was so hard)… but I think it might be a different one?

She asks:

Looking for a book I read earlier this year but cannot remember the title or author.

Heroine agrees to marry hero because she thinks her parents owe hero’s parents a lot of money and they cannot pay it back. Her parents tell her that her father may go to jail and they will lose everything. read more

Skye Warren – The North Security Trilogy Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

FORBIDDEN LOVE/AGE GAP ALERT!!! Oh boy this sounds titillating and Harper recommends it (and it’s complete!!).

Harper: North Security series by Skye Warren has a lot of fans. Is a bit of a taboo because the H is her guardian and teacher

About book #1:

The world knows Samantha Brooks as the violin prodigy. She guards her secret truth—the desire she harbors for her guardian.

Liam North got custody of her six years ago. She’s all grown up now, but he still treats her like a child. No matter how much he wants her. No matter how bad he aches for one taste. read more
