POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Well friends… big news to share and big changes for me… so I quit my job and finally walked away from a corporate culture that was not right for me and a company that constantly made me promises but instead just piled more and more on my plate.

Sometimes in life you just need to have self-preservation and choose yourself… and your happiness… because that is what will bring you joy.

QOTD: Tell me something that has brought you happiness or joy lately… or have you made any big changes lately?

Thanks to all the authors, publishers and book tours for these new books! #BookMailMonday

But during a botched assignment in Los Angeles, Meg encounters a woman wearing her daughter’s distinctive butterfly necklace, and everything she believes unravels. As Meg defies her handlers and goes rogue to chase the lead, she’s thrust into a deadly conspiracy linking global espionage, human trafficking, and her own past sins.

🎃This @booksparks fall reading challenge just keeps getting better and better! When You Tell by Steena Holmes is a lesson in speed reading- I need to find out where all these twists and turns lead- now!!

🎃Bree Wagner has always played second fiddle- a ghostwriter, a third wheel, and survivor of tragedy. However, when her former friend Miranda begs her for help she can’t refuse. But long buried secrets have a way of coming to the surface, Bree has to question the point of the friendship. This psychological thriller visits Amsterdam- a beautiful place I fell in love with when visiting. It deals with influencers, friendship, and betrayal- what more could you pack in?

🎃Name a city you would gladly resettle in- jobs and expenses not affecting your answer.

𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐲 𝐈 by Harry Hunsicker. Thanks to @kayepublicity for the gifted Arc ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Meg Dalton botches a covert operation and now the FBI is after her. She’s uncovered a clue that her daughter, kidnapped fifteen years ago, may still be alive. Meg follows the clues as she runs.

If you’re looking for a fast paced, high thrillers, give this a try. It’s a very easy book to read and can be read quickly. The words flow easily and the action is hopping over and over. It gets pretty violent and graphic at times, and has an upsetting backstory but the ass kicking vigilante feel is fun.

“𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘧𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘦. 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯?”

Read if you like:
-Missing children stories
-Vigilante tropes
-Running from the good guys and towards the bad guys

Mother May I comes out 10/13.

Qotd: What is your favorite ride at the carnival? I like the big swings or the gravitron.

🍂 My latest Chic List feature is here, and it’s the PERFECT one for fall!

@authorsteenaholmes latest thriller, When You Tell, has all the spooky-season vibes we love: secrets, lies, friendship, deadly consequences, and one of my favorite ingredients in a thriller… the world of influencing! 👀📚

I loved getting to know Steena a little better, from her current reads to her reality TV favorites and a peek inside that brilliant writer’s brain. We’re talking books, pop culture, and all the fun behind the pages!

Ready to add another twisty thriller to your fall TBR? Read the latest Chic List below! 🖤🍁

Last favorite book and current read?

Wonderland by @jenniferhillierbooks —and I’m currently nursing the book hangover. My next read has some big shoes to fill!

Current TV binge series?

Silo!

A fictional character you’d 100% invite to brunch?

Grace Bernard from How to Kill Your Family. I have questions. So many questions. And I’d definitely be choosing a public place.

Describe your work in progress in 3 emojis?

🎄 🇬🇧 ☕️

Your dream author blurb or collaboration?

A blurb from @fmcfaddenauthor ? Yes, please! And a collaboration with Jennifer Hillier, because dang, that woman can write.

Name an author you’d love to take a dream vacation with and where.

@lucyfoleyauthor in Paris. Bookshops, pastries, and conversations about murder over coffee. That sounds like a pretty perfect trip to me.

Your Roman Empire… but make it literary.

How an author can tell you the truth the entire time and STILL completely fool you. Those twists that make you want to turn straight back to page one? I’m obsessed.

Your main character’s favorite musical artist?

I can picture Bree from When You Tell listening to @taylorswift There’s a song for every feeling and she’s always in the feels.

Your go-to writing snack or drink?

Chocolate-covered almonds and coffee. Preferably both within reach (my candy jar in front of me right now is almost empty of the almonds and so is my coffee cup, sadly)

Shout out an indie bookstore that you love.

@foundbookshop in Cochrane and @owlsnestbooks in Calgary! And when in Paris: @theredwheelbarrowbookstore
