That does not mean I'm staying inside. As much as I want to, but adult life am I right?
Errands this morning, some writing, doing my best friend's hair, and then more errands before school pick-up has my Monday full. I'm getting closer to the home stretch with my current WIP as well as Seraphina coming out in 10 days!!! There isn't much else to share this week. As always, I hope you have a great one. x Brooke

Here I am again bringing you what books I've read for November and hoping that you find something that sparks your own interest! So here we go!
With This Woman by Jodi Ellen Malpas Goodreads Amazon Barnes and Noble Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros - favorite of the month! Goodreads Amazon Barnes and Noble The Harvest Bride by Kati Wilde Goodreads Amazon Court of Nightmares by K.A. Knight Goodreads Amazon Fallen Prince by Julia Sykes Goodreads Amazon Barnes and Noble Stepbrothers' Darling by K.A. Knight Goodreads Amazon The Anti-Hero by Sara Cate Goodreads Amazon The Devil by Ashley Jade Goodreads Amazon Lords of Darkness by Amanda Richardson Goodreads Amazon There you have it. As always, happy reading! x Brooke This is definitely one of the Monday-est of Mondays. After four days off, I'm catching up on things; laundry, emails, and of course, writing. I took my computer while we were having Thanksgiving fun, but only got on it long enough to order a couple of things and then was off again. This week sees me starting at nearly the halfway point for the manuscript I'm currently working on and ideas flooding with another. Yeah, it's going to be fun keeping my thoughts straight for the next couple of days.
Since I missed it Friday, I'll be releasing What Brooke Read this coming, so be on the look out. Have a great one! x Brooke Because last I checked, it was still the beginning of November.
I swear, the older I get, the faster each year seems to slip right through my fingers. All the books I want to read. The ones I want to write and publish for the world, sometimes I wonder if I'll ever have enough time to share them all. Pictures still to take, like getting a spring one of the image above and of my children. The exploring I want to do and the peace I want to find are what consumes me most of my free time. I don't have much to share with you this week other than moving onto a different book really helped out my slump. 18K words into this story and I feel great about it! I hope you have a great week. x Brooke Okay, I'm going to be honest, I gave up on my free-for-all book especially considering I already have a sort of rough draft of the book done. I wanted to do something different but couldn't for the life of me change that direction.
Instead, I decided I'll use what I have and when I do second drafts and my own edits, I'll make my changes then. With that set in my mind, I moved onto my next book and watching my favorite anime while doing it. This book will include a certain old lady I introduced earlier this year and will make more of an impact in future books. This week, I had hoped to read more. I'm currently trying to devour both Princes of Ash by Angel Lawson and Samantha Rue and Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros. It's really difficult trying to read both when you can't put either down, but on top of that, we have a mouse family. So, it was taking apart the house and cleaning all weekend and then finding out we got momma but there are still babies running around. Ugh. So, needless to say, I haven't accomplished anything over the weekend except maybe a couple of chapters of both books. I plan on writing today, but first, I'm going to go check on my dad. He had surgery this morning and haven't heard back yet. Have a great week! x Brooke Chaos.
That's about the only word I have for this work in progress. And that's okay. At least that's what I'm trying to convince myself of. I'm usually a woman with a plan, but this book isn't working out like that. I'm going off completely random with this book and doing my best to tell myself it's okay, that's exactly how I wrote My Cowboy. I don't have much to share this week, so I'm going to leave you on this. Have a great week. x Brooke One may wonder why it is always Monday where you find it the most difficult to find focus. Is it because of the weekend of doing other things that now it's back to structure getting back on task seems next to impossible?
I'm not sure if that's it for me today. Instead, it's the fact I want to write this book so much I can't wrap my head around what way I need to go to get the ball rolling. Instead, I'm distracting myself with thinking of what to write here today. I don't have much else to share. So, I'll leave this short and sweet. Have a great one! x Brooke Here we are, the end of October and Wyoming has snow and ice. The snow I don't mind, the ice on the other hand is a massive pain especially when there are people who don't know how to drive on it. I was able to wear shorts up until this past weekend and now it's pants, my fuzzy boots, and hoodies. And plenty of books to help keep me warm.
Here are the books I read for October: Viking Thunder by Emmanuelle De Maupassant Goodreads Amazon Barnes and Noble Lion of Twilight by Kathryn Le Veque Goodreads Amazon Wood You be Mine? by Daphne Elliot Goodreads Amazon Shattered Secrets by Lilian Harris Goodreads Amazon Savage Rose (A series where two books are one couple) by Leila James Goodreads Amazon Serpents (A trilogy) by Logan Fox Goodreads Amazon Barnes and Noble Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros Goodreads Amazon Barnes and Noble I bought mine locally at Sheridan Stationery Books and Gifts Dead Mountain (A murder/mystery) by Preston and Child Goodreads Amazon Barnes and Noble Locally, I bought mine at Sheridan Stationery Books and Gifts Claimed by the Mountain Man Goodreads Amazon Beautiful Sins by Cecila Lane Goodreads Amazon Claiming the Wolf Princess Goodreads Amazon Blacklisted by Angel Lawson Goodreads Amazon King of Carnage by R.E. Bond Goodreads Amazon And that's all of them. It was hit or miss this month. Some books I really enjoyed while there were a couple I DNF. No, I'm not going to share which ones. As always, I hope you see something that sparks your interest, and you fall in love with it. Happy Reading. X Brooke Winter feels like it's right around the corner here which has me already bundled up.
Over the weekend I wrapped up Cupid, thankful the story finally came to me. This week, I get to turn my focus onto a story I've been daydreaming about. It'll be my first try at a menage. I'm both nervous and excited about writing it. I don't have much else to share this week. I'll be back on Friday with my monthly recap of all the books I've read. x Brooke I can't believe this week the second book of my mountain lion shifters is coming out! This book series came to me while on the mountain fishing and honestly, well before that after years of going to one location I always thought would have made a neat mountain town. I crafted it all up in my noggin and brought it to life in the words of first The Mating Call and now The Mating Haze.
This book follows the second sister, Laramie, on her journey to finding her mate and figuring out who she is and what she's meant to do with her life. Of course, antics between siblings is probably my favorite part of this series especially between Laramie and Sheridan. The paperback is available now, so if that's your preferred reading material, make sure to pick up a copy on Amazon today! You might even get it before Thursday when the ecopy comes out! I'm 13k words deep into the new version of Cupid's book and much happier with it. And after this book? Well ... you see there's going to be a murder van, psychos pouring milk before the cereal, and a mentally unstable woman who can talk to her sister in her head. Yeah, I'm pretty excited about that one. But that's all the tease I'm going to give you for now. Have a great week! x Brooke |
