Today I want to wish the awesome author Torie James a happy release day for her latest Christmas read! Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YM2LN5L A Court of Celebration…. It’s 1539 and Greenwich Palace is ringing in celebration with double the joy this Christmas season. King Henry VIII eagerly awaits the arrival of his new bride, Anne of Cleves, while passing time in preparation of their impending nuptials. A beautiful, foreign courtier with an ulterior motive… Mysterious and mischievous, Aurelia Dinescui arrives at Greenwich Palace with a scandalous mission from Pope Paul III: Seduce Henry Tudor and convince him to break his upcoming nuptials with the Duchy of Cleves. A determined rogue desperate to make a name for himself… Seductively cunning, Sebastian Blount is a man raised in the shadow of the Court. Younger brother of Henry's ex mistress, Bessie Blount, his invitation to attend Henry's wedding provides the rake with a chance to grow past his sister's infamy and garner his own. Mistletoe and Magic… Up on Mount Olympus, The Goddesses of Fates do as they've always done. Keep an eye on mankind, guide destiny and argue among themselves. When they discover that Eris, Goddess of Discord, has grown bored and sowed the seeds of discontent in a court already rife with trouble, Atropos, Lachesis and Clotho must do whatever it takes to put things right. A task made harder when Zeus forbids them to use their powers, sending them to deal with the task in person. In a season of wonder, can The Fates work a miracle on two embittered souls and keep a King from making a disastrous decision? I know, I know, I have been sharing lots of books this month for gifts to yourself or others. And yes I have been focusing on indie authors. But for a little change of pace today I am sharing the album release of my personal muse lately, Harry Styles! I am late to the Harry Styles fan base. I was not a fan of One Direction... shhh don't tell anyone. But then I discovered his first album at the beginning of 2019... late again I know. His self titled album just spoke to me. It opened up emotions within myself and that helped to drive my creativity. I often listen to his music when I paint now and I swear that some of the best paintings of my life have been inspired by his music. I don't know what it is, but Harry and his music have become my muse in so many ways. So of course I am so happy that he is releasing his second album today! I can't wait to create to it! So sure, he doesn't need the shout out like so many authors that I share, but his art is something that I care about as well and wanted to share. link: https://hstyles.co.uk/ Continuing my Christmas Read blog series this season...

I found this Christmas read this year and just started reading it! Link: https://www.amazon.com/Promise-December-Book-ebook/dp/B01LXQ0W1F/ Christmas. That bittersweet word that plays on my mind every goddamn year. Some people love it, I don’t like the fact I still live around it. Like any other child, Christmas for me was the most magical time of all. The winter walks, the smell of fresh cinnamon and candy canes, the excitement in the pit of my stomach where I found it hard to sleep. I loved that. But once you reach adulthood you soon realise that life is cruel and fairy tales are bullshit! And at twenty-one, that magic and belief were torn from my grasp and I suddenly wanted to be that little girl again. December now means nothing. Christmas hurts. And the only coldness I feel is what’s congealed around my heart. Nothing would change, and no one could change it. Then I met him. It's the Christmas season, the time of giving and some awesome authors have gotten together to have a little Christmas Giveaway! There will be five winners, so enter for your chance to read win some fantastic books!
Giveaway Link One more Christmas read from Leona Bushman today! Link: https://www.amazon.com/Spying-Christmas-Miracle-Express-Book-ebook/dp/B07XCYYLPP/ Christmas is not always what it seems. Melody hated Christmas. Ever since her parents died on Christmas Eve, nothing had ever been the same. She and her brother had been forced to live with their grandfather. Her brother, the now presumptive heir, received most of the attention as he learned about the holdings. She had been given lessons on how to be a lady. As if she wanted them. She would rather do anything else than be a lady with no rights. One night, at a soiree, someone had approached her to spy for them. Not giving her a choice, really. So, with great reluctance, she’d accepted the invite to her cousin’s Christmas house party. Two weeks pretending to be happy about Christmas? Worse punishment ever for simply being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Then she met her prey—Kit Stuart the third. Her heart raced, and her body yearned for something she never wanted before. Kit Stuart searched for a rebel spy said to be coming to the Christmas party of his best friend. Not hard to accept as ordered, but then he found the rebel spy, and his heart denied it. His body craved hers. How could he arrest and maybe kill the first woman to make him believe that maybe there was such a thing as Christmas miracles? Then the real betrayal was revealed. Could they save their family and friends before it was too late? Books really do make great gifts! And since the holidays are approaching I am going to do a little shameless self promotion! Today I have some fun fantasy reads for your consideration! Tianna and Kara each came to Port Stone by request of their respective Orders to help an unknown elf, Phinelope. She never shows at the appointed meeting place, so they go in search of her only to find Phinelope murdered and more secrets than answers in this strange town. Never ones to let the murder of a woman go with no consequences, they take it upon themselves to avenge her death and find themselves becoming more involved in the mysteries of Port Stone than either of them ever intended. Join Tianna and Kara in this female led fantasy of danger, lies, and unanswered questions. Link: mybook.to/PortStoneDangersSwamp Tianna and Kara are now in Port Stone for the foreseeable future, commanded by their Orders to stay and help the duplicitous Delmar on his secret mission. The problem is neither trust the man, or anyone in Port Stone for that matter. The more they hear from others the more questions they have. Once wizards are introduced to the equation, well neither woman knows who to believe. These two warrior women continue their search for truth and justice in Port Stone: Book Two Delmar's Demise. Only .99 cents and Free on Kindle Limited! Link: mybook.to/PortStoneDelmarsDemise Today I have another Christmas read for you from Leona Bushman, this one a sci-fi one!

However, all is not as it seems. With the commander of the pleasure ship not being forthcoming, most of the surviving passengers didn't know they'd been shot down. Faraway is put in the position of revealing some unpleasant truths to attractive medical officer Ethan Roarke. Can Captain Faraway and the sexy doctor ferret out those whom don't belong before they've killed her crew and taken over her vessel, or will they pirate Christmas along with their ships? Today I have another Christmas read for you! This one is from Shelli Rosewarne. This is such a sweet Christmas story and I hope you like it! Link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019EHDVXW Daniel is a modern day Scrooge, but when a beautiful angel shows up on his doorstep can he believe in a Christmas miracle? Daniel Everett is having a bad day. Firstly, it’s almost Christmas and he’s convinced Scrooge had the right idea in the first place, secondly his latest nanny has left him to cope alone with his five year old daughter – and quite frankly he would rather deal with several cut-throat mergers before breakfast than one small child. When the beautiful Laurel shows up on his doorstep she’s a gift from heaven – literally! Unbeknown to him, Laurel is a real life angel and his carefully ordered life is about to be turned upside down as she’s determined to help Daniel feel again and to reconnect with his daughter. What neither of them bank on is the sparks that fly between them. As Laurel starts to thaw Daniel’s icy exterior, can he learn to trust again and start to believe in the impossible – and can they ever overcome the obstacles of coming from two separate worlds? |
