Book Review: Christmas Charms
Y’all, I just LOVED this story. It was a delight from beginning to end. If you’re looking for a way to kick off your holiday reading season, this is a perfect choice. Read it with fuzzy socks on, wrapped in something cozy, and with a cup of something warm. And with a pillow nearby in case you want to throw your book when they ALMOST kiss, lol.... Read More
Book Review: Behind the Frame
Y’all, it’s official. I LOVE this series. It’s always a worry when you find a good first book in a new series that the second won’t live up to the charm, but y’all, this second installment not only hit every note for me mystery-wise but offered so much character insight and just overall felt like a much more developed world. ...

Book Review: Sailing at Sunset
Y’all, I have so many thoughts and feelings about this book that I don’t even know where to start. I laughed, I cringed, I swooned, and I legit cried. To say that I loved it was an understatement.... Read More
Book Review: Christmas in Bayberry
I think my mind and soul were begging for a bit of comfort. A way to escape and be with people, even if it was all fictional, who were feeling the joys and warmth the season brings to some of us.

Book Review: A Cottage Wedding
I fell in love with Heart’s Landing and couldn’t wait to get back to it in Book Two, aka A Cottage Wedding. It was like seeing old friends again and as corny as this sounds, with social distancing and all, getting to “visit” this little town again brought me immense joy.... Read More
Book Review: In Other Words, Love
Overall, I felt this book was more Family Drama than Romance, but I still enjoyed it. It's very much a case of Come for the Promise of Romance but Stay for the Power of Family and Forgiveness.... Read More
Book Review: A Simple Wedding
What set this book apart for me though, was the fact that there was a villain. I LOVE a good villain, even when they aren’t a rival for the hero’s affections.... Read More
Book Review: Country Hearts
Confession: I started this book thinking it was going to be a typical know-it-all city-girl who constantly butts heads with the seasoned country guy and after a long battle to win, they'd finally come together. Y'all, this was anything but that.... Read More

I Tried It: Sunrise Cabin’s Sunday Muffins
Once a month, I hope to try a recipe from the back of a Hallmark Publishing book. Will I recreate it successfully? Or will it be an epic fail? Honestly, it’s going to be a crap shoot most times, lol.... Read More
