5 Fact Thursday- Jill's Fall Favourites - Tinsel and Tea Cakes @Piscj18 @2ndchance #romance


Jill's Fall Favorites - and I'm with her on number three.


Nothing beats a blazing fireplace that first chilly night of the season. I’m not sure who enjoys the event more—me or my cats.

No other television show or movie does fall better than Gilmore Girls.


I love transitioning to my favorite sweater weather wardrobe staples: cashmere, jeans, and booties.


The best part of apple picking is leaving with a box of warm, apple cider donuts.


Fall kicks off the holiday season in my house. Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas, GAC’s Great American Christmas, and a slew of holiday themed books are my entertainment go-to’s November 1st through January 1st.


Book blurb:


Hair stylist Scarlett Kerrigan lost her job and her apartment. To alleviate a touch of self-pity, she succumbs to her stepmom’s pressure to attend a wedding in the New Hampshire White Mountains. Unfortunately, she runs into the vacation fling who promised the moon but disappeared without an explanation. Months have passed, but she is not ready to forgive and forget.

After a chaotic year, executive Wes Harley settles into his family's event venue, The Timeless Manor. His carefully structured world is shaken to its core when Scarlett arrives for the Victorian Christmas wedding weekend. The feelings he never quite erased flood to the surface.

When secrets are revealed, will a magical chateau and a sprinkle of tinsel be enough to charm Scarlett?

Excerpt:

Lights flashed in the side view mirror. Another car parked behind them, but snow blocked all visibility through the back window. Boots crunching through snow announced the hulking figure before he appeared at the door. A scarf and hat covered most of the stranger’s face, and only a pair of emerald-green eyes peered in.


Scarlett inched down the window a crack. The possibility of this person being a deranged lunatic couldn’t be overlooked.


“Scarlett?” The man stepped back and tugged down the scarf.


She knew that face and opened her mouth to speak but couldn’t find a word. This day just kept getting better. Those eyes should have been the first clue, but never in her wildest dreams did she expect to see him again. The blur of memories racing through her mind dropped a throat-constricting concoction of confusion, hurt, and vile hope on her chest. “Wes.”


“What are you doing here? Aren’t you a little far from home?” A line formed between his eyebrows.


Clarice leaned forward to get a better glimpse of their potential knight in shining armor.


“More than a little.” Coherent thoughts took shape in the form of questions and accusations. Every fiber in her being burned at the thought of asking him for help, but alternative options were few and far between. Who knew how long before roadside assistance arrived? Fine, maybe he’d get her out of this mess, but making small talk didn’t need to factor into the exchange.
