Hey friends! I love that the weather is starting to get cooler, hockey season is starting, and my favorite spots at the Jersey Shore are less crowded. I'm hoping to spend a few days in Cape May, NJ next month to refill my well. I don't know about you, but it seems like everything has been so overwhelming and draining lately. How about you? Are you are a fall lover or do you hate that summer is waning?

In addition to be excited about fall, I'm also excited about all the great books my friends have been writing that I get to share with you. My close friend Trinity Wood has released Fast Track to Forever a New Zealand set Friends to Lovers Christmas Romance.

Will de Jong is:

a. A champion Formula 1 driver

b. The tallest cinnamon roll in the hemisphere

c. About to speed headfirst into love

Kat Featherstone has:

a. A use for every fabric scrap

b. A meddling aunt

c. No idea her life will change this Christmas

Fresh off his championship win, Will de Jong leaves the high-octane life of Monaco behind to spend the holidays in his hometown, Queenstown, New Zealand. As steadfast as the Remarkables mountain range, Queenstown holds the past: his parents still toil at a mountain lodge that isn't their own, refusing his offers of help.

Returning from the UK, his childhood friend Kat Featherstone is an aspiring fashion designer with dreams as vivid as her creations. Sparks ignite when they reunite, rekindling emotions Will buried five years ago. But along with the chemistry come conflicts. Can Kat break free from her family’s windmill business to pursue her passion?

Two families at odds collide in this enchanting friends-to-lovers romance set against the festive backdrop of a New Zealand Christmas. Will their love navigate the inevitable speed bumps, or are they truly on a fast track to forever?

I didn’t want to ask him for a favor.

He was the cockiest hockey player I knew.

And my brother’s best friend.

But I needed to learn about the game, and he was down with a concussion.

I didn’t realize he had an agenda of his own.

One that involved showing me his off-ice plays.

I should have said no.

Should have kept things in the central zone.

But one sweet taste was a game changer, and the only words on my lips were yes.

Until a lifetime of secrets spilled out…

In my next newsletter I'll have some information on the next Paranormal Hockey League book releasing in December. I'm editing it now and swooning so hard. I hope you love it too! In the coming months I'll have news on more Paranormal Hockey League books and other stories. I have so much planned that I can't wait to share with you. It's so hard to be chill and not spill all the beans! I am not known for my chill even if I claim to be part polar bear. LOLOL.

Stay cool my friends,
