Are you ready for Halloween?

Celebrate with a story.

Secondhand Samhain 

The seventh novella in the series.

Welcome back to Holiday, USA, small town America, where nothing happens, except holidays... and a little romance, if the hero and heroine trust God.

Jan Connor, the new manager of the secondhand shop Vintage Holiday, loves her job, her town, and her life. She doesn't need anything except a little bit of help. Her annual Halloween birthday party isn't coming together, and her antiquated computer system is only making it worse.

Trent McDonald, computer guru extraordinaire, is looking for a place to call home. His brother, Cowboy, suggested Holiday might offer what he needs but never mentioned Vintage Holiday's pretty shop manager.

Between one breath and the next, God changes everything...

Brain Dump

Riddle Me This: 

Why is it awful, horrible, evil to strip mine for coal 

but 

strip mining for lithium is acceptable since lithium is needed for batteries?

TBR 2022

116Dream of a Glorious Season (Sarah M. Eden British Isles Collection Timeless Romance Anthology 15)  by Sarah M. Eden historical romance. Sweet and loved it! 

117A Lesson in Love (Sarah M. Eden British Isles Collection Timeless Romance Anthology 15)  by Sarah M. Eden historical romance. Unexpected and enjoyable.

118. Just One Wish: A Celebrity Crush Romance by Janette Rallison YA romance. The hero and heroine are 19 and 17 respectively. The story is told in first person, which isn't my preference, but I don't think this story could have been written any other way. I laughed and cried and am glad I read it.

119. In Plain Sight (Sinister Secrets)  by Paige Edwards suspense romance.

120. Secrets of Saint Augustine (Sinister Secrets)  by Traci Hunter Abramson suspense romance. Another great story. This one brings back FBI Special Agent Doug Valdez and his wife Jill, from earlier stories. Loved it!

Brain Dump

"Romeo and Juliet" is proof positive why teens and younger should not be allowed to have romantic relationships. Stop saying they're mature enough. They aren't.
