Happy Tuesday, lovelies! I noticed when I logged in it had been a while since I’ve posted. Sorry about that. We had a wonderful Halloween and I’m so sad to see it over. Usually we don’t put the tree up until the day after Thanksgiving. My daughter doesn’t like to skip the turkey holiday. So I respect that. My son, however, asked for the tree. I’m totally with him! Gotta find the joy where you can these days. So I suggested we put it to a vote. Three out of two voted for the tree going up, so it went up this past weekend! My son just loves it. He tells it good morning and good night. It’s the sweetest thing. My daughter asked if I would at least wait to put the ornaments on it, and I said yes. It’s up, the lights are on it, and I don’t mind compromising. It does make me smile every time I see it.
I think it’s been so long since I posted that I didn’t even tell you I hurt myself. I was delivering my youngest daughter her lunch before we left for State Championships for her band and guard. I tripped and fell on the curb…and ripped my pinkie fingernail off! That’s how hard I fell. Needless to say, I didn’t get to chaperone that night and I had to go to the emergency room. My finger is slowing healing, but it’s still a bit swollen and I can’t bend it all the way yet. It’s very awkward typing right now, but not impossible. So there is always a positive in every negative situation. Fall Band and Guard is over. They placed 10th (out of 13) at Nationals and had a wonderful season. Winter guard starts this week and I’m excited. I truly enjoy watching her and her team perform.
I’m not big on talking politics. I don’t think much good comes from it. Most people are settled in their minds how they feel about things. But there are times when it’s hard not to speak up. I am extremely disappointed on the presidential results. I voted for Harris and had such high hopes we would defeat hate. Now I only hope the next four years aren’t horrible. I do hold only a slim hope for that because it’s not looking good. I have been trying to stay off social media because I can’t handle the cheering for his win, and the back and forth both sides have been having. Nothing good comes from it. One thing I did see that I thought was interesting was some women talking about how they woke up in the middle of the night on election night around 3-4ish with this intense dread that something was off. That something horrible happened. It gave me the chills because the same thing happened to me. I still can’t shake that feeling. It’s so bizarre so many of us felt that. Anyways, I just wanted to say a few things about it. Now onto book matters…
Here Comes Chaos releases in 31 days! I repeat, 31 days! If you turn that number around, funny enough, it releases on the 13th! I did not plan this post out like that. lol

From USA Today bestselling author Amanda Siegrist comes an intense holiday romantic suspense series that will make you swoon and hold you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
Welcome to Sleighville…where mayhem meets murder.
Mayor Bryce Stuart’s quaint Christmas town is in crisis. With holiday cheer fading faster than melting snow, he turns to a PR firm for a total holiday makeover. Amidst the tinsel-draped chaos and unexpected divorce papers, Bryce is determined to save his town even as his personal life unravels.
Lila Hansley, a PR whiz, would rather dodge snowflakes than deck the halls. When her grinch of a boss tasks her with reviving a town where yuletide seems cursed, she finds herself tangled in more than just stubborn locals and tacky decorations. Between Bryce’s infectious Christmas spirit and his soon-to-be ex-wife’s icy interference, Lila’s job becomes a real-life holiday mayhem.
But when mischief escalates to murder, Sleighville’s revival takes a sinister turn. As tensions rise and secrets surface, Bryce and Lila must navigate a web of small-town intrigue where someone’s silent night just became permanent.
Can they uncover the mystery before their Christmas miracle becomes another holiday homicide? Or will Sleighville’s dark secrets bury their efforts deeper than the winter snow?
Have a wonderful week, and happy reading! If you haven’t read the first book yet, Dashing Through the Fear, check it out HERE and get caught up with the characters!
