Top Ten Tuesday | January 7, 2025

Jan. 07, 2025

TTT-Transparent-768x308

It’s been a while since I have taken part in this series but I really wanted to get back into it this year. It is a great way to share different books with y’all without a lot of work. If you are new to this series then allow me to explain a little. Each week we have a theme for a list of ten books that come up with. It is always fun deciding what books to put on the list and which ones fit into the theme. At least it is for me.

As always, Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the lovely Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl. Click on over to her blog and give her some love. If you want to join in the TTT fun, you can find all the information on her blog.

What a List!

As you can see I have two Lani Lynn Vale books on there because both are the first books in two new series for 2025! I am always so excited about that. I also have two Catherine Cowles books as well. I discovered her last year and have read through all of her books. I can’t begin to tell you how well written her books are. Add in a few cozy mysteries and I will be book heaven this next year. Although this is just a small list of the huge number of books I am excited about this year.

That is my list! I hope that y’all enjoyed reading it as much I enjoyed coming up with everything on there. Be sure to stay tuned for next week’s list!

What is on Your List?

Do you have books coming in 2025 that you just can’t wait for? Any of mine that sound interesting? Let us know in the comments below.

CAN YOU KEEP HER SUPERNATURAL SECRET? Moon of Secr CAN YOU KEEP HER SUPERNATURAL SECRET?
Moon of Secrets by Brenda Trim and Tia Didmon is now live!!
 
https://geni.us/MoonofSecrets
 
To stop the darkness, I must walk among the enemy
 
Going undercover in a rival wolf pack wasn't part of the plan, but it's the only way to uncover their true motives. With a false identity and a carefully spun lie, I slip into their hidden community, only to learn the truth is far more dangerous than I imagined.
 
These wolves aren't evil. They're being used. Manipulated by an ancient entity that feeds on shifter energy, one bent on harnessing enough power to permanently darken the moon. If it succeeds, every wolf shifter will gain unstoppable strength, at the cost of our humanity.
 
As suspicion sharpens around me, I lean on Eve's spells to mask my identity and Salima's guidance to reach my allies on the outside. Time is running out, the lunar ritual draws near, and I'm walking a razor's edge between exposure and survival.
 
Because saving the city isn't enough this time. I have to save them, even if they tear me apart for the truth.
 
Find out what lurks in the shadows of Ravenholde by reading Moon of Secrets, the Paranormal Women's Fiction series readers are comparing to Shannon Mayer, K.F. Breene, and Victoria Dannan.

I blame getting pregnant on my sister getting mauled by a bear.
If she hadn’t been attacked that day, I wouldn’t have come home to check on her. I wouldn’t have run
into Boone Windsor at that bar. I wouldn’t have gone home with him, ready to drown my sorrows in a
different, more satisfying way.
I wouldn’t have given him that second chance.
Not after he’d so badly burned the first chance.
I would’ve gone back to work half the country away, and I would’ve kept my head in the sand where
Boone was involved.
But my sister did get attacked. I did give Boone a second chance.
And I almost died because of it.
After my memories are lost in an accident that almost takes both of our lives, Boone makes me fall in
love with him all over again.
And since I didn’t know all the hell that awaited me, I didn’t guard my heart.
I fell, and fell, and fell until there was nowhere else to go but down.
Then, when those memories come back and I’m faced with the consequences of my actions, I didn’t
falter.
I knew he was hell, yet I chose to burn with him anyway.
