Holiday Season Is Upon Us

Can you believe we’re almost half-way through December and the holiday season is almost upon us? Of course, those of you who celebrate Thanksgiving have already started, but I’m Swedish, we don’t do that here so holiday season is soon upon me.

New Release Spotlight: An Uncommon Alignment by Ellie Thomas

Thank you, lovely Nell, for having me as a guest on your blog again. I’m Ellie, I write Historical Romance novellas, and I’m here today to chat about my new release, An Uncommon Alignment.

This is the third novella in my Regency MMM series, An Unlikely Alliance. The first two stories, An Unlikely Alliance and An Increasing Entanglement, chart the passionate meeting of my threesome, Clem, Abe and Humphrey and how they band together in the face of a dangerous enemy. By the third and final story...
