It's October! My closed-door Halloween romance is free on all platforms all month!

"Simon had his reasons for coming back; his job was only one of them. Infortunately, his job is putting Josie's business in peril. Now he had only a few months to make it right before Josie finds out it was all his idea. It all comes to a head on Halloween, when Josie lets a freezing Simon into her home and the world gets a bit more interesting."

Ken Danby's paintings were some of the most spectacular of the 20th century. From his hyper-realistic portrait of Gordon Lightfoot, to his iconic At The Crease, his work is known by Canadians coast-to-coast. This is the story of a great Canadian artist. 🧵 1/10

A black-and-white portrait photograph from the 1970s of a man with tousled dark hair, a neatly trimmed mustache and beard, and a thoughtful expression, gazing off-camera. He is seated in a warmly lit wood-paneled room lined with framed artwork, vintage posters, and a wall clock. He wears an open-collared light blue denim shirt, with one hand visible in his lap.

No problem! I especially like the two-sided ones where the full art is on the front (because pretty) and the back adds the marketing info. I've used them also to get an ebook or remember it to borrow at the library.

No - it's like a nice bonus. I like bookmarks, and if I'm not sure about getting the book I like the ones with the QR code that I can pick up and check out the book later.

Okay so apparently it isn't common knowledge: after you get your shots, roll your shoulder and flex your bicep every 30-60 minutes. It dramatically reduces the soreness from the shots. Pharmacists taught me this tip Year 1 and it's a game changer.

I wrote that I’m doing a book singing instead of signing. Okay then: 🎶 If you like a good romance and you finally put on pants, then get it while it’s hotty and saucy-ful and naughty! On the 19th of September from 1 to 3—remember? If you like this cover’s looks then head to Evermore Books! 🎵

Book cover description: Brown background with coloured smoke. A white man with silver hair who is wearing a flight suit with wings on the shoulders is trying not to laugh at a woman with short grey hair who is sitting, looking bored, and wearing a chicken costume. On the table is a sign that reads: All you can eat at Coq of the walk! Behind her are three beautiful women who are dressed like models, standing at another table that has a large wings basket on it.
