Coming Soon and Binge Lists
Hey, friends. Welcome to February.
Today is the 2nd which means it is just eleven more days until the release of To Marry an English Lord. I’m so excited for you to get to read Sebastian and Jocelyn’s story. Set on the western side of the Grand Tetons, this is a love story between the son of an earl and an independent woman who has little time for romance while she runs her family’s shipping business in New York City. Of course, if her brother hadn’t had a run-in with a bison, she wouldn’t have returned to the family ranch in Idaho and never would have met the handsome viscount.
Here’s what Inspired by Life and Fiction’s own Tamera Alexander had to say about the book:
An absolute gem of a story! If you’re craving romance set against the vast beauty of the untamed west, then look no further. Filled with witty repartee and heartfelt emotion, Robin Lee Hatcher’s second installment in The British Are Coming series is guaranteed to please!
To Marry an English Lord is available for purchase for your Nook, Kobo, or Apple device for a few more days only (ends about the 6th). Then it will become exclusive to Amazon. On release day, it will be available in ebook, paperback, and audio.

Today, possibly as you read this post, I am joining two of the ladies who are in my Life Group to see Show #1 (Episodes 1, 2, & 3) of Season 4 of The Chosen. It feels like I’ve been waiting for this day forever. Yes, I toyed with the idea of waiting a little longer until the episodes arrive on the app, but then (1) I didn’t want to wait and (2) I want to show my support for this amazing show that is bringing the good news of Jesus to so many. Add to that, I said to my friends, “Would you like to go?” and the yeses came so fast my head was spinning!
In preparation for this day, I binged Seasons 1, 2, and 3 over the last couple of weeks. In truth, I have binged The Chosen many, many, many times. It fills me with love for Jesus and sends me running to the Scriptures to know Him more. As Paige Brown says in her Bible studies, “May we see Him more clearly. Love Him more dearly. Follow Him more nearly.” That’s what The Chosen helps me do.
That got me thinking of other shows that I have binged multiple times (not as many as The Chosen but quite a few times; not as spiritually uplifting but definitely entertaining), which then made me wonder if you do the same and to wonder what shows you can watch over again. Let’s skip movies that we can watch again and just stick with series, limited or longer. And let’s say it can be any series you’ve watched through at least twice.
Here are the ones I could think of that I’ve watched, beginning to end, at least two times through:
Pride and Prejudice (1995)
North and South (2004)
Poldark (2015-2019)
The Crown (2016-2023)
Victoria (2016-2019)
Foyle’s War (2002-2015)
Okay, please join in. Maybe you’ll remind me of something I’d like to see, maybe for the first time, maybe a repeat.
