BLURB JOLTS! Oh yeah… I got ’em! Credence by Penelope Douglas (OMG this sounds like unconventional forbiddeny goodness. Secluded in the woods in a cabin… with them.

Queen of super dark reads, and the blurb is short and not-so-sweet but HOLY MOLY BLURB JOLT!!), Love Her or Lose Her (Tessa Bailey!! They used to be so in love but now her husband barely acknowledges her… so marriage boot camp it is!!), Getting Off Easy (firefighter and his bookworm neighbor, and she helps him when a baby is left on his doorstep!), The Last Sister (thriller!!

Hey, hey! Goood morning! I would love a pastry and fancy coffee today and to just chill and read all day. But, I have loads of laundry to finish, sweeping, homework. Dinner. I don’t know what to do for dinners this week. What’s on everyone’s menu? The 1 that keeps standing out is white chicken chili, but that’ll only work for a day or 2. So, I’ll try to squeeze in what I can reading anyway. Followers came out today also, that 1 was on my tbr and I see it on preorders. Sounds good!
To eat… hrmmm… good question! A hearty lasagna? Or maybe an eggplant rollatini.
Can you tell I’m in the mood for Italian? 😉
P.S. What’s Followers??? I’m looking it up now. 😀
🤣😂 That’s what the hubs suggested too, lasagna, spaghetti, ravioli…I’m actually not in the mood for it for once. Though I’m not big on lasagna. Too much cheese, I just don’t like it very well.
I’m doing that skillet egg roll tonight and this tomorrow with cauliflower rice: https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/slow-simmered-chicken-with-raisins-capers-and-basil/
That chicken sounds Moroccan!!! YUM!!
It’s really good and I don’t usually like chicken in the crock pot!
Oh wow, this sounds fantastic! I’ll make it too. What a coincidence that I’ve also seen a recipe for an open egg roll or something, I forget what it’s called, and I thought it looked delicious as well.
Here’s the egg roll one but I get everything going before adding the cabbage. Especially if I use fresh mushrooms because I want them to collect the other flavors for as long as possible. I also use turkey sausage to save on calories. https://bit.ly/30n9yK4
Thanks R. You’re a recipe guru!
LOL! Thanks, I try! My husband told me I should write a cookbook. I said of what? Other people’s recipes? 🤣
All good recipes start somewhere, I’d buy it.
LOL!!!
Call it “Tweaking other people’s recipes… now they be mine!”
By R. Renee
I’d probably only get a little sued!
LOL!! True… scratch that idea. 😉
Good morning! Just a FYI…Alexei by Brenda Rothert releases on Feb 4. According to Brenda’s Facebook page, they are having tech issues with the Amazon pre-order.
Ahhhhhh nooooooo!!! Okay thank you Stacy!! I will change it out.
Good morning everyone!! Just want to say Credence by Penelope Douglas is LIVE!!!!!
OMG Sri!!!!!
Thank you for that! I’m adding it now!!! *happy dance* 😀
Oooh, Vampire Debt! MINE! *grins* Just have to finish another book I was HIGHLY anticipating first. lol The 4th and final book from the Zodiac Academy by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti. It’s one of my favorite series from last year. Though, the book is HUGE. lol 733 pages! Yet so far, not a wasted word.
I finished the Tarot book from yesterday. So well written and memorable. 🙂
Okay, from Monday. That long pass all the way down the field is called a Hail Mary. It’s not just about catching the ball but the other team making sure you don’t. That’s why it’s rarely done except at the end in the hope to win a game you have a chance to win. I can’t believe I know that, but I blame a football-loving family for it. Though, currently, I see playoff season as more money for the schools. lol The NFC championships are here in my town so every seat sold is a dollar towards the schools before the money goes anywhere else. 🙂 75,000 dollars a game. 😀
WHOA!!!!
And thank you for the lesson. I get why they’d call it a “Hail Mary”. LOL!!! Very cool.
Welp, I was wrong. It is NOT the last book. That ending, gah, heartbreak, but hey, not the end at least!
Best Man by Katy Evans is on sale on Amazon for .99. I haven’t read it but it looks good.
Ohhhhh YES!!! GREAT FIND! I’m adding it. 🙂
It was so good!!!!!!
Happy Tuesday! I stayed up way too late finishing This is Forever. I’m so bummed that this series is through. I promptly downloaded Credence on KU after perusing the list but am also determined to finish Release by Aly Martinez.
Thank you for the feedback on Natasha Madison’s latest, Colleen!! 😀 So the series is a good one, then? I need to put it up one the blog.
I haven’t read a lot of sports romance (and wouldn’t say that’s my thing) but the extended family story line sucks you in and the family dynamics are great. The guys in the family all play hockey so there are hockey scenes in each book but the women are so beautifully written and there’s lots of not-hockey stuff going on too. I definitely recommend starting with “Something So Right” which is the story of the family matriarch/patriarch.
Thanks Colleen. I haven’t read this author so might try it.
I hope I didn’t lead you astray and you enjoy it, Jan!
Ha ha ha. Who knows? I’m always up for trying new authors. We’ll see!
What a great list, Maryse. I’m sitting here sipping my coffee and browsing through it. Clicking a sample here and there. Very relaxing! I’m on summer holidays here (for another couple of weeks) and making the most of all this reading time 😀
No bushfires near us, but it’s quite smoky again today here. It’s supposed to rain later, so hopefully that will clear the air a bit.
I love browsing books… that’s why I love making these lists. It actually DOES give me blurb jolts of anticipation. I like your style… casual coffee and samplings. 😉
Oooh, Sun Down is getting good. I mean, it was already good. I’m just warming up, bc I basically just started it at only about 20% in, but now there’s a boy! Not a boy, a man, and I don’t even know if he’ll be a love interest yet, but it’s the not knowing, the what if that’s getting me. And you know, maybe there’ll be something there. *waggles eyebrows*
Wooohoooo!!!! And I just woohoo’d over the fact that I just got a copy of “Dead To Her” by Sarah Pinborough!!!!! YAY!!!!!
Omg, I love the cover! I hadn’t heard of it, but fans of Liane Moriarty? Sign me up! Can’t wait to see what you think!!
I was just now sitting here thinking “what the heck am I going to cook tomorrow”?? Tonight was a throw together of stuff I had. Sausage with spinach, olives & feta over orzo. I’m also trying to figure out what to read. I need an audiobook as my eyes are really bothering me.
Trying to catch up on posts, again. Although life has been crazy busy, I have found the time to read some. Just not on the blog as much as I would like.
The recipes above look great…think I’ll be trying some this week. Any books I’ve missed that have been highly recommended? 😉
Heya Maryse! So, have you heard of this latest book buzz straight out of Poland???? 365 Dni by Blanka Lipińska, movie out in February and a NetFlix deal????
I saw an aerial photo of a hot-looking naked guy and a girl doin’ it on a boat – full on!!! *blush* … and then some were talking about Poland in the comments? Could this be related?
I hear there is a very HAWT trailer….I just can’t get to it for some reason!
I bet it’s that image!!!!!! OMG NOW IT MAKES SENSE. I stared at it for at least 5 minutes straight… just like… OH. WHOA.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10886166/
I’m blushing too. LOL
The movie is coming out in English!!!!!!!!!! I really wanted to get the books on Audio in Polish but I CAN’T FIND THEM ANYWHERE, i’m assuming because of the “Country of Origin”….
What about the paperback? I got the Polish Full Tilt from a Polish bookstore online–trying to find it now. But I also know you can order international versions on Amazon sometimes. I doubt you’re going to find the audio.
I sent you the trailer on FB…. Hope you come back to us though….
LOL!!!!! Okay I’ll take a look. I’m scared!!!
I just finished Credence by Penelope Douglas, and holy hotness (fans self) was it good! Following the death of her parents, Tiernan goes to live with her step-uncle and his two sons in their remote cabin in Colorado. There are plenty of town women during the warmer months, but no female has lived in the cabin for years, and winter is coming! Awesome book! Highly recommend!
OMG!!
*thud*
I had another fellow reader email me about that one… very forbiddeny I hear.
Omg I just finished reading Credence by Penelope Douglas. It was soooo good!! I couldn’t put it down. A little bit forbidden & so many times I said OMG to myself. What a story!!! I’ve read so many of her books & just love her writing style. I highly recommend this book!!!
This is going on my best list for 2020!!!!
Maryse, I finally sent you my best of 2019 list. Let me know if you dont get it. Last year wasnt the greatest book year for me but I did have a few 4.5 & 5 stars. I love reading everyone’s lists! Thanks for taking the time to post for us.
I’m reading Slow Dance in Purgatory, by Amy Harmon. It’s not new, but I really like her writing and the synopsis sounded interesting. Liking it so far.
