Yep, it's true - I was so shocked I didn't know what to do next.
RECOMMENDED: It Had to Be You by Eliza Jane Brazier is $1.99! Elyse gave this an A grade:
It Had to be You also has a lot of morbid humor, which I think is necessary to lighten up the mood when dealing with this kind of subject matter. It’s a wry look at the absurdity of two broken people jet-setting across Europe while having sex and maybe trying to kill each other (not really trying) and falling in love

Hey, everyone! How the heck is it Wednesday? I just got back from vacation and of course, I’m swamped in work and other obligations. It sucks. Definitely not the “ease back into real life” that I wanted. Over the weekend, I attended a big Disney pin trading evening (my first one!). I had a lot of fun, but I think the highlight was attending Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. It was really exciting to … Continue reading Links: Murderbot, Fat Bears, & More

Starling House by Alix E. Harrow is $2.99! Sarah and I mentioned this in Hide Your Wallet. I think I wound up grabbing it in audio, but am notoriously bad at whittling down my audiobook library.
This HaBO comes from Rita, who wants to find this romance: I’m trying to track down a Harlequin romance and here’s what I remember: Male lead (ML) is a widowed rancher with a son (possibly named Jason). The book opens with the ML at a bar on the anniversary of his wife’s death. He meets the female lead (FL), Susan, a teacher. They have a one-night stand, and she becomes pregnant. Later, the ML’s son … Continue reading HaBO: Surprise Baby between a Widowed Rancher and a Teacher
