So there are some parties happening this weekend. I’m sort of “meh” about them. I haven’t been a big rah-rah fan of July 4 for several years (since…2016 maybe? Wonder why?) and for several years it was a very stressful holiday for my dogs, and therefore for us. Our solution for our dogs, if you need help: a Bluetooth speaker turned up very loud playing brown noise (the worst name for a pretty good sleeping … Continue reading Friday Videos Wish You a Peaceful Weekend
My guest this week is Kirsty Greenwood, whose new book Romantic Hero is out now everywhere, all over the world.

RECOMMENDED: The Halifax Hellions by Alexandra Vasti is $2.99! I could not find this on BN, but I’ve found the search is pretty borked since their site update. If you happen to find it digitally for BN, let me know so I can update the links. This collects the first two novellas in the Halifax Hellions series. The trilogy of novellas was favorably reviewed on the site.

Chaos by Constance Fay is $2.99! This is book three in the Uncharted Hearts sci-fi romance series. I DNF’d book one and was underwhelmed by book two. Perhaps I expected too much from the series. Have you read them? What did you think?
