Amanda has discovered some hidden gems during her first year of home ownership.
Where I live the holiday season is cold, and it gets dark very, very early. It’s during this time of year that I like to tuck in with my coziest blanket and focus on creative rest. I do most of my crafting over the winter months. This giveaway features items to help you pass those (possibly) long, dark hours as well. First up is this cat embroidery kit by Hawthorn Handmade. If you’ve never done … Continue reading Hanukkah 2022 Night 6: Knitting!
Desiring Lady Caro by Ella Quinn is $1.99! This is a historical romance with a Venetian setting. Reviews on Goodreads say this is a pretty fast-paced romance and that there’s a road trip element! Though trigger warning because it seems part of the heroine’s backstory includes rape.
This topical Rec League came from Rebecca. Thanks, Rebecca! It’s winter here in Minnesota, so I’m looking for snowed in forced proximity romances? I see there was a Rec League in 2017 but there have been a whole lot more books published since then! Amanda: Here was our previous Rec League! Elyse: Wrapped Up in You by Talia Hibbert That one is Kobo only, I think Shana: Tara suggested Snow Falls by Gerri Hill to … Continue reading The Rec League: Snowed In

Welcome back to Wednesday Links! There’s only one more left in 2022. I can hardly believe it. I’ll be at my partner’s place on Christmas Eve, exchanging presents. I already know their present to me – a trip to Galaxy’s Edge to make my own lightsaber! Christmas Day, I’ll be back at my own apartment where my roommate and I are going to order a metric ton of Chinese food to just relax. Happy holidays, … Continue reading Links: Short Films, Patrick Stewart, & More

Heiress for Hire by Madeline Hunter is 99c! This is the first book in a new series for Hunter and Catherine gave it a B-. She felt the mystery element didn’t have the same satisfying resolution as the romance. I liked this one a little better (maybe a B or B+).
This HaBO is from Maggie, who is looking to find this anthology: I’m looking for this anthology I read in high school. I think it was four stories around Valentine’s Day. One of the stories is about a married couple who live on a farm. They are struggling financially and their marriage is struggling because he’s the strong silent type who doesn’t discuss his feelings. She is pregnant and I remember her being on a … Continue reading HaBO: Valentine’s Day Anthology
