Good morning, friends!
Did you get enough to eat yesterday? One of my traditions is to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Sadly, the presentation has changed a lot in recent years and doesn't have the same attraction but I watch anyway... because it's tradition. Do you have a Thanksgiving tradition? Maybe just curling up with a warm toddy.
Good morning, friends.
As we get closer to Thanksgiving, I hope you're finding these quotes inspiring. Maybe share around your family gathering.
Good morning, friends!
We had a heat wave last week and the leaves are still falling here in the Ozarks. Thanksgiving is just around the corner. I could see a bakery story with these.
Good morning, readers.
I have a great read for you this week. There is a caveat I'll share later in the review. Overall, tempting em to read the next book in the series.
A grumpy billionaire. A
determined single mom. And a little boy who believes in Christmas magic....
All Marley wants is to give her five-year-old son Cooper the perfect Christmas at Snow Fox Lodge. But when she arrives at the snow-covered mountain retreat, she discovers they'll be sharing a cabin with Preston Wells—the notoriously cold-hearted CEO who hates everything about the holidays.
Preston didn't get to where he is by believing in fairy tales. He's at the lodge for one reason: to close the biggest deal of his career. He doesn't have time for Christmas cookies, face painting, or the way his heart warms every time Cooper calls his name.
But there's magic in the mountain air at Snow Fox Lodge. As cookie-baking sessions turn into snowball fights and bedtime stories, Preston finds himself falling for both mother and son. When a dangerous blizzard forces him to face his deepest fears to save them, Preston discovers that the greatest acquisition of his life might not be a business deal after all.
Legend says that whoever spots the mythical Snow Fox will have their Christmas wish come true. But sometimes the greatest Christmas magic isn't what you wish for—it's what your heart needed all along...
As I said earlier, I really enjoyed this story. Cooper is such a delight and Marley is a great mom. She's a parent when she needs to be but also her son's best friend. She finds her footing in this story as she navigates trying to trust a man again.
Preston may be rich and handsome but he's really out of touch with people on a common basis. He's a get in, get the job done, then move on to the next challenge. Forced to attend a corporate Christmas retreat, organized by his brother who has to stay behind, Preston finds himself in an unprecedented situation. He doesn't count on a five-year-old with pointed questions and a matter-of-fact attitude beyond his years, or the woman who mesmerizes him at every turn. I will be honest. I shed a few tears near the end. Happy Ever After tears.
This is Book 1 in a 5-book series. Marley's sister, Charlotte, gets her chance with her boss, Pierce (Preston's brother). The only issue I had were several word/ typo mistakes that would have been easily corrected. As they say, it's all in the details. For what I viewed as attention to detail in the editing process, I'm giving THE BILLIONAIRE'S CHRISTMAS WISH...

Good morning, readers!
I'm shining the spotlight on Nala Henkel-Aislinn, today.
Nala Henkel-Aislinn fell
hard for love stories and mysteries back in school, when she read her first
Harlequin Romance and the entire Encyclopedia Brown series in a month. Now she
writes warm, emotional happily ever afters and hilarious whodunits in cozy,
quirky small town settings. She lives in the Pacific Northwest, where finding
the perfect cinnamon bun is a legitimate life goal!
She is the author of the contemporary sweet romance series Cranberry Hill and the Maple Cove Dog Lovers' Society, as well as the Christmas-themed series, Magic at Snow Fox Lodge. Her cozy crime comedies are written in The Hitman's Daughter series.
I'll be reviewing her Christmas book, The Billionaire's Christmas Wish, which is Book 1 of 5 in the Snow Fox Lodge series.
