Before we get to this week's free, 99-cent, and new books...

Happy Friday! ❤️

Lauren here...

Our 5-Star Reviewer of the Month is announced below. Scroll down to see if it's you!

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, this month's contest prize is a sterling silver replica of the claddagh pendant our Irish hero Sean gives Corinna in The Art of Temptation, so be sure to check that out, too. :)

Ezra turned 3 this month, and as luck would have it, he, Devon, and I all had our birthdays the same week. (Okay, it's not luck: this happens every year!)

We celebrated in a 4-day whirlwind of activity, including...

  • A family party, where Ezra unwrapped many new toy cars.
  • His official toddler party, where all the kids built remote-control cars.
  • His first-ever day at Disneyland...

...where his favorite ride was Autopia....

  • And his first-ever day at Disney California Adventure, where his favorite place was Cars Land.

If you're getting the impression that Ezra loves cars, you're right. 😂

And if you're thinking that 2 consecutive days at Disney were exhausting for everyone involved, you are also right! 🥱

In non-Disney-non-birthday news, Ezra loves to entertain his little sister. Click here or on the picture below to check out a video of the two of them. (Trust me, it's adorable!)

I'll end with a new photo of my kitties, Katya and Ruslan, perched on two ottomans we have in our living room. And that's it for this week! We'll be back in your inbox in April, and until then, happy reading! 📚

5-Star Reviewer of the Month (is it you?)

"BREATHTAKING! The characters are so richly described, the scenes so perfectly set, that you just go along for the ride. This is not just a love story, but a complex family story. If you are female and do not fall in love with the H, you would need to check yourself for a pulse! Wonderful story with HEA ending that stays with you."
