I’m in a pretty good mood today, having caught up on emails and already finished reading a poetry collection. I also submitted all the points for the readathon, so I’m pretty proud of it, because I feared my hands wouldn’t be able to handle it. However, now my teammate has offered to submit any extra points I have. Now, if my hands behave, I will start November’s posts. I still wasted some time looking at books and thinking which one to grab next. My blog says I lost four followers, and I don’t know how to feel about it. Sam’s currently hosting WWW Wednesday from Taking On A World of Words.

Despite Andie’s own terrible track record with romance, even she knows that her father’s sudden move to his girlfriend’s goat farm in North Carolina is a rash, unwise decision. She races south of the Mason Dixon to coax him home, but runs into a man-shaped obstacle in the form of burly paramedic Seth, the adopted son of her father’s lady love.
Farm life is as unpalatable as Andie suspected—stinky goats, malicious chickens and millions of bloodthirsty mosquitos. Her father wants to give up a rent-controlled apartment, lifelong friendships and a satisfying teaching career for this? She’s got to get him to come to his senses before Seth figures out her homewrecking intentions. It’s a difficult position to be in, especially when the positions she’d like to be in involve fantasies about sexy, infuriating Seth.
As she runs from man trouble in New York and heads toward bigger trouble in North Carolina, Andie will have to decide whether she can support her father’s leap of faith and maybe even take one of her own.

By the time Monroe Avalon turns 23, she’s landed a position with Will Wishes—a business dedicated to impeccable (and expensive) execution of wills. Monroe’s history, and background as a junior enigmatologist, not only secures her the coveted job, it also procures her the enormously wealthy, and anonymous, client on the other end of her pager.
Her position comes with a significant salary, a fully paid-for condo, and a shopping stipend. It also gifts Monroe with an invisible cell, locking her into a 60-minute radius from the center of the sleepy town on the Hudson she was required to move to for the job.
Over a family dinner served up by a world-class chef, the buzz of her pager turns the evening, and her life, upside down. In minutes, she discovers who her client is—or was—and his spoiled son, Mars LaCroix, who happens to be the town’s bad boy. With a murder to be solved three days before Halloween, and the threat of another, can Monroe stay focused on her job, with Mars proving to be the distraction she never knew she needed.

“Benedict Blackmoor was not in want of a wife…”
With echoes of Bridgerton and Jane Austen’s novels, this Steamy Gay M/M Romance is a daring, sparkling, twisted tale of love and deception set in a re-imagined Regency era.
Benedict Blackmoor, a 24-year-old heir to a grand estate, faces an impossible ultimatum from his dying grandfather: find love or lose the family fortune to his younger brother.
Uninterested in any potential bride, Benedict finds himself in a pickle. But a chance encounter at a drag cabaret introduces him to Vivienne LaFleur, a dazzling drag queen whose true identity is a mysterious young man named Victor.
Desperate to save his beloved cabaret from closure, Victor offers to pose as Benedict’s love interest for a handsome fee, and Benedict agrees. It seems like the perfect plan: he’ll grant his grandfather’s wish and secure the estate without breaking any girl’s heart when he needs her to disappear forever.
But there’s one thing Benedict didn’t account for—his own heart, as he slowly finds himself captivated, not by Vivienne, but by Victor himself.
