  1. CONGRATS!!!I am so happy for you, I celebrated my eight last June so that was fun!! I think if I had to choose one book I am most excited for in 2018 is Cross Breed by Lora Leigh. It features Cassie, who every fan of the Breed series has been waiting for---like years so I am stoked for that book.

    Hope you are having a wonderful New Years and enjoy the day.

  2. I occasionally wonder what would have happened had I stuck with blogging all those years ago, but I regret nothing! I enjoy all of my time spent with the kiddos. I just really missed reading. Now I'm getting into the flow of life again, and making things work. I want 2018 to be a year of happiness and fun. I want to be able to spend time with my children and not lose myself or stop doing what I love, too. I want to find a good balance.

    I'm so glad you're still here and carrying on like always!

    As for 2018 books... all of them?
