Too Early for Christmas Lights?

I drove home in the dark a few days ago, and to my surprise, there were many Christmas lights and decorations up on houses already! Some of them even had their trees up! My rule is that I always wait until Thanksgiving, which I think is one of the loveliest holidays of the year. I believe in taking at least a day, if not more, to be thankful for all I have. What about you? Do you think it’s too early for Christmas lights? P.S. I know it sounds weird to say this, but ONE SUMMER NIGHT has a lovely story line about Christmas at a big NYC department store that’s owned by the heroine. Much of that storyline is based on my memories of going to B. Altman’s as a child, and then working there during high school and college. I loved that store! Anyway, if you’d like to slip from summer to fall, to Christmas, grab your copy of ONE SUMMER NIGHT today for only 99 cents at https://amzn.to/4r1gyZ1.

Lazy Sunday Vibes

Unless I’m at an event, like next week’s Fall in Love with New England reader conference, I always do brunch with a friend. With the weather growing chill, I was looking forward to a lazy Sunday of catching up on my reading in a comfy chair. I wish it were a posh place like that in the photo below! But it’s actually going to be an almost summer-like day, so instead I’ll be doing some outside chores and taking a long stroll along the boardwalk. How about you? What are your Sunday plans? P.S. If you want to hold onto summer a little longer, dive into the At the Shore contemporary romance series. The first book in the series, ONE SUMMER NIGHT, is specially priced at 99 cents at https://amzn.to/4nbnlMA.

Here on the Jersey Shore, we’re waiting for a Nor’Easter to hit. It’s supposed to bring inches of rain as well as high winds. After brunch with a friend, I plan to prep some Blind Date with a Book Boyfriend books for the upcoming Fall in Love with New England conference, water my plants, and get some writing done! What are your weekend plans? P.S. I have several first-in-series books available for 99 cents. Spicy military heroes, a sexy Southern vampire, or an enemies-to-lovers beach read!

Day off today to visit with family, and after, deal with the garden. Poor plants need some water, and I want to finish up the fall decorations. Hope you have a fabulous day!

How do you recharge and relax?

How do you recharge and unwind to prep for the week ahead? I always take some downtime to read the news and have a nice cup of coffee. Then I spend some time in the garden, tidying up!
