Back on the Air
I feel like I just took a season off, but it definitely did not feel like some kind of off-season. If anything, it was an off season, if you know what I mean.
I’ve had to postpone my next book, Hollow, so it will not be published by April, but I will keep you updated on any future dates. It will certainly be published this year, but I no longer plan to have three published books this year, unlike what I was hoping for.
I also missed my last book release, Love. Not truly, but in a sense, I have done no marketing for it since its release. I was clearly hoping this would be more exciting for me, but I’m still planning on making 2025 the next best year of my life; I’m determined. There has obviously been a lot going on in my life that has kept me from keeping up with Tiktok content creation, but I’m looking to get back into as soon as I can. Just trying to get my new routine in place, as so much has changed recently.
Reading Recommendations
Though I’ve been out of touch regarding social media and marketing, I have been reading, and I’ve got three recommendations (six if you separate one of the book series’ I’m recommending).
First up, the Black Rose Kisses series by Eva Ashwood. There are four books in the series: Fight Dirty, Play Rough, Wreak Havoc, and Love Hard. I’m currently in the middle of Love Hard, and it’s been a stellar book series so far. Eva Ashwood never seems to disappoint me. Why choose, mafia vibes, and I am absolutely in love with each of them.
Mated to the Monster by Sarah Spade is definitely next. I’d been wanting to read this book for months, and when I finally got around to it, it did not disappoint! There are a lot of five-star reviews on GoodReads for this one, but most of the one-star reviews talk about how there’s no monster/demon smut in it? But I disagree; there definitely is, and it’s amazing. Not sure if maybe the author put out another version of this after some one-star reviews came out, but regardless, it was definitely worth it, and I’ll be purchasing one of the special edition copies of this one when I get a chance.
Fabric of Our Souls by KM Moronova was absolutely beautiful. I’d put off reading this one for a long time, as there was a series of hers that I stopped reading part of the way through, as it wasn’t resonating with me. But once I gave this one a chance, I couldn’t put it down. I didn’t want to; I wanted to finish this book in one sitting. The ending was absolutely beautiful and unexpected, and I have already purchased a hard copy for my trophy bookshelf. Definitely a reread, highly recommended.
My Current Read
Aside from finishing up Love Hard by Eva Ashwood, I am also in the middle of reading one of her other books, Filthy Rich Santas. I’ll say, it surely is not disappointing, and it is a good read, but it hasn’t resonated with me as much as a few other books I’ve read recently, so it’s been placed on the back burner behind a few other reads. I’ll certainly finish it soon, though.
Recent Finds Unrelated to Reading
I suppose this isn’t so much of a find, but I have decided that I am going to re-roof my house. It’s needed to be done for a while now, and I’m a busybody with a but work ethic, especially in terms of manual labor. And YouTube is the perfect place to learn how to do things like this.
Recent Movies & TV Shows
I’ve recently stopped watching a few TV shows that I was previously into, but I’m sure I’ll et back to a few of them eventually. However, currently, I’ve been watching a ton of Financial Audit with Caleb Hammer on YouTube. Aside from the super good advice that he’s got on his show, it’s also hilarious the way he delivers everything. Some guests have really put themselves in awful situations, but he’s always got some way to help them out. Most of the time, it’s a simple budget he puts together, but most of these guests have never put a budget together, and those who have don’t end up following it.
I love me some trash TV, and I recently started rewatching Daisy of Love. That show is so hilarious! A few of those guys are super awesome and sweet, but most of them are absolutely ridiculous.
