  • Special Feature: Christmas at Sugar Plum Manor by Roseanna M White

    October 16, 2024 / Comments Off on Special Feature: Christmas at Sugar Plum Manor by Roseanna M White

    Every year I feel like the Christmas seasons gets earlier and earlier! Every time I go into Hobby Lobby, even in August, I always see all the Christmas decor and think ‘OMG is it really time for Christmas?!’. While I might not be ready for Christmas in August or even September, I am usually read for it in mid October! October is when I start my holiday reading and carry it through into the full holiday season! When this book came across my desk over the summer, I was super excited to get it on my mid fall holiday reading schedule! It has all the things I love in it……Christmas,…

  • Special Feature and Excerpt: All is Bright by RaeAnne Thayne

    September 22, 2022 / Comments Off on Special Feature and Excerpt: All is Bright by RaeAnne Thayne

    I have been a long time RaeAnne Thayne fan! Every fall I look forward to her upcoming holiday releases. I usually hold off reading them until it’s closer to the holiday season but I am always down to feature them in early fall! For me personally, I am all about spooky mysteries in the fall so I don’t actually pick up any Christmas-y books until usually November, but I know that in the publishing world, the Christmas books start hitting shelves in September! To be honest though, RaeAnne Thayne is an excellent choice any time of year. She has written so many wonderful books and series that I have enjoyed…

  • Review: All I Want for Christmas is a Cowboy (Wyoming Cowboys #1) by Jessica Clare

    December 3, 2021 / Comments Off on Review: All I Want for Christmas is a Cowboy (Wyoming Cowboys #1) by Jessica Clare

    After reading Holly Jolly Cowboy on vacation, I immediately needed another cowboy book to keep me entertained so I snagged the first book on my Kindle the second I finished with the other book. This series has quickly become my guilty pleasure and I am not even a little bit sorry about it. I love small town romances and this series has made me want to move to Wyoming and buy all the cows and do all the ranch things not to mention transform my husband into a sexy cowboy. If you are looking for some steamy holiday romances, this series has you covered. Now not every book in the…

    December 2, 2021 / Comments Off on Review: Holly Jolly Cowboy (Wyoming Cowboy #7) by Jessica Clare

    I literally have no idea where I saw this book or why but I think it must have been on Amazon and I was like ‘awwww look at that cute dog on the cover’ and next thing I know, this book is arriving in my mailbox. In all honesty, I didn’t think I would read this one. I thought it would be a holiday book that I picked up and then sat on my bookshelf for the next 12 months until next holiday season and by which time I would have forgotten all about. But I left it sitting on my coffee table and that cover just kept calling to…

    November 27, 2021 / Comments Off on Review: Christmas in Peachtree Bluff (Peachtree Bluff #4) by Kristy Woodson Harvey

    When I finished the last Peachtree Bluff novel, I thought it was indeed the last novel but then Kristy Woodson Harvey came in clutch with a Christmas installment and I couldn’t be more excited to read more about the ladies of Peachtree Bluff! I have adored all of Kristy Woodson Harvey’s books and obviously this was going to be a welcome read this holiday season! I read it over the long holiday weekend and I was so happy to return to Peachtree Bluff and reconnect with the characters—I read this one super fast and enjoyed every single minute of it! And seriously check out that cover, doesn’t it scream CHRISTMAS!?…

    November 25, 2021 / Comments Off on Review: Sleigh Bells Ring by RaeAnne Thayne

    Is it even Christmas without a RaeAnne Thayne book? The answer is NO IT IS NOT! I adore Thayne’s Christmas books so obviously this book was an easy yes to reviewing. In all honesty, I had this one on pre-order months ago because I didn’t want to miss one of her Christmas books. Thayne is such a great romance writer without being overly steamy and I never want to miss one of her books! This book is a standalone but there are mentions of other characters from previous books that she has written. But I want to be clear this is absolutely a standalone book! But if you are a…

    November 12, 2021 / Comments Off on Review: Mistletoe Season (Carolina Girls #2) by Michelle Major

    It’s officially Christmas reading season for me and I couldn’t wait to dive into this one. I loved the cover and it just screamed Christmas magic for me even if I haven’t read anything else by Michelle Major, this one just screamed read me for some reason. I know that Michelle Major is we well known romance author with quite a few series under her belt so I felt confident that I would enjoy this book by a beloved writer! While this is part of a series, it is not necessary for a new reader to go back and read the other books. I felt right at home in the…
