Another week without a podcast, sorry! I'm still struggling to find that balance -- not enough time in the day and far too many things that need my attention.
Spring is in the air, as it's trying to warm up. The tulips along my sidewalk are trying to peek through the dead weeds from last year. The leaf buds on my lilacs are thinking about it, but it's still too early for them. I do love this time of year. How about you?
This week was pretty uneventful for me IRL. Though there was a late-night baking fail. Hey, at least it still tasted good!
As to romancelandia: Ellie Reads asked about serials, and whether you love or hate them. I'm not a fan, and would prefer to have the entire story at once. What about you?
Also, Jen had her first guest review go up on SmartBitches this week -- not a romance, but rather a book to help you teach your kids about consent. Go check it out!
Finally, don't forget about March's giveaway, which ends tomorrow night (April 1). Find all the details HERE!

Narrated by Helen Wick
4 Stars
✦ Heroine moves to town, takes over the infamous pie shop (I am a sucker for bakers!)
✦ The shop belonged to the hero’s aunt and mother (they're retiring is all, don't worry!)
✦ He owns an apple orchard and brews hard cider
✦ This one just made me smile a lot. Sweet and fun.
✦ Great on audio
✦ Looking forward to book 2 -- former NHL player + his ex-wife's sister + some fake relationship catnip = I'M IN

4 Stars
✦ Unrequited love (heroine)
✦ Age gap (10y)
✦ Tattoo artist hero
✦ Heiress wanting to start her own business
✦ Slow burn, but quite hot eventually

✦ My least favorite of the series; I didn't feel like the romance here was as fleshed out and shown as I wanted
✦ Still a solid read, don't get me wrong!
