      <image:title>Fiction Friday - Introducing: The Curse of Broken Shadows - Hunted to huntress.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Shadow magic has been wiped from existence. Those who honor the shadow god's monument are hunted for their artifacts, including the Veil shards that break off the wall in Valisea. Brela vows to steal it all back. When Brela discovers the artifact she’s stolen is the most valuable weapon in Valisea history, and one that changes her life, the huntress once again becomes the hunted. But the assassin has a secret. If anyone were to discover the Veil shard embedded in her skin, or that the artifact has infected her with shadow-cursed magic, she'd suffer a worse fate than her people. With the Veil wall breaking and tension growing in the remaining kingdoms, Brela’s secrets might not be enough to protect the weapon of her people. To survive, she may have to work with the one man who could burn her.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - New Page: Book Reviews - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>This might be my new favorite book. Of all time. And I almost didn’t keep reading. The first few chapters were painfully slow. The characters felt bland and it took me two days before I could finally get into the story. But the world building was incredible. The banter was absolutely delicious. The mystery, emotion, and climactic scenes had me in tears, screaming, laughing, and breaking. It has been a long time since I’ve actually cried at a character death in a book. Bryce was incredible as a main character, and Hunt was the perfect support. Somehow, even with an 800 page book, I still wanted it to be longer. I wanted more of Ruhn and Hypaxia and even Bryce’s parents. There’s so much more to explore and it’s an incredible set up.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Could not put it down. There was always that mystery playing in the back of my head wondering about Cas - which helped push me through the individual adventures. Her growth and discovery was enticing at every turn, and oh boy, that twist. Plus, who can turn down a good banter (and flirting) between enemies? I'm not even stopping. Book 2, here I come.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Absolutely delicious This is the first adventure at sea book I’ve ever picked up, and now I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to pick another one up because this was just too perfect. How do you put down this perfect treasure-hunting magic adventure? Good gods, and the enemies to lovers romance... this is what all pirate stories need to be about. Can’t wait to read the next.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - Author Interview: Katie Zaber - You can travel the same path countless times, but it can sometimes lead to another realm.</image:title>
      <image:caption>A mystical tree captures the attention of Megan and her friends, morphing the surrounding environment, transferring them to an exotic planet with bloodthirsty creatures. Saved from the deadly beasts by hunters, Megan finds herself stuck in a rural town still maimed by the plague. A chance encounter with a familiar face gives Megan and her friends some security during their adjustment to this new world. While settling into promising lives, they are attacked and stalked by planet Dalya’s humanoid inhabitants, who focus solely on Megan.  One dark night, after a magical attack, the Fae King’s knight is sent to fetch Megan for a reason she can’t possibly guess. When she wakes up a prisoner, she learns that there is much more to this strange place, and it is oddly more like home than she ever would have expected.  The more Megan learns about the strange world of Dalya, the more she realizes that finding a way home is insignificant compared to everything else at stake.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - Author Interview: Katie Zaber</image:title>
      <image:caption>Katie Zaber knows the best way to decide who is cooking dinner is with a Nerf gun fight in the living room. Her boyfriend is an exceptional cook. When she isn’t baking, reading, or going to wine tastings, she’s busy planning her next trip to Six Flags Great Adventure or Long Beach Island, New Jersey. As a child, her mother would read stories about Atlantis and other fictional places that she dreamed of exploring, fueling her love of history, adventure, and fantasy. These days, she finds herself captivated by her many projects and enjoys quiet nights at home.

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - March Updates: New Book and Vacation Recap - Sand Dune Arch</image:title>
      <image:caption>Arches National Park in Moab, Utah. The Sand Dune arch was an incredible sight, and possibly my favorite one of the trip. With a unique entrance and a peaceful break from the people we passed, this arch was tucked away and waiting to be discovered.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - March Updates: New Book and Vacation Recap - The Drive Up</image:title>
      <image:caption>We started off the day strong with this sight. How can you drive past this every day and NOT want to visit the entire park?</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - March Updates: New Book and Vacation Recap - Balanced Rock</image:title>
      <image:caption>Possibly the most photographed feature in Arches National Park, besides the arches, of course. Balanced Rock was a little challenging to capture today because the sun was right behind it. I finally found a good angle and made it somewhat visible</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - March Updates: New Book and Vacation Recap - Southern Arch</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’m a huge fan of paths and trails, which is why I loved getting this look at the southern arch in arches national park. This one was a little tricky because more people were on this trail by the time we got there, but it was a great sight and the perfect lighting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - March Updates: New Book and Vacation Recap - Turret Arch</image:title>
      <image:caption>I think this arch was my all time favorite. It’s unique and sets apart from the others. Possibly the most overlooked area because everyone is busy looking at the Double Arches across the way. This one was a beauty</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e45a20cd426b45f5ca1089b/1614130920519-JGI37B6EKFG9R1BZKBYK/IMG_6888.jpg</image:loc>
      <image:title>Fiction Friday - March Updates: New Book and Vacation Recap - Turret Arch</image:title>
      <image:caption>Another turret arch for good measure. I was stunned at the clear sky and sun hitting this one in arches national park. Moab, you really outdid yourself here.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - March Updates: New Book and Vacation Recap - Drive to Capulin Volcano</image:title>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - March Updates: New Book and Vacation Recap - Capulin Volcano National Monument</image:title>
      <image:caption>In the crater of the volcano! It was absolutely freezing with the wind so if you go in the winter, I suggest better wind protection!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Fiction Friday - Why do you participate in NaNoWriMo? - Soul Collapsed</image:title>
      <image:caption>Kiya has grown up around powers her entire life. She trained for the day she'd get to choose a power source and discover her own hidden abilities. But when that day came, something far worse happened. Left without powers and unable to accept her failures, Kiya struggles to find a new role within her community. Ryder wants nothing to do with his powers. He just wants to play under the Friday night lights without causing a blackout or freak meteor storm. But when he loses control one night and nearly exposes his abilities, four mysterious strangers save the day and offer him a solution. They'll help him temporarily block his powers as long as he promises to train with them and learn control. Will Ryder give up everything he's established and spend his senior year training with powers he doesn't want?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Queer + Interracial Hockey Romances to Read While Waiting For Heated Rivalry - Crossed Sticks - Ryan Taylor &amp; Joshua Harwood</image:title>
      <image:caption>Crossed Sticks is a romance that’s anything but easy—and worth every moment. While the story is high on angst and deals with serious topics such as depression and anxiety, you can also expect witty banter, hilarious text conversations, public hookups, friends with benefits, grand romantic gestures, and exciting hockey scenes.

      <image:title>Blog - Queer + Interracial Hockey Romances to Read While Waiting For Heated Rivalry - The New Guy - Sarina Bowen</image:title>
      <image:caption>My name is Hudson Newgate, but my teammates call me New Guy. That was my nickname in Chicago, too. And Vancouver. That’s what happens when you keep getting traded. Brooklyn is my last chance, especially after my poor performance last season. But I can make this work. The new guy knows to keep his head down and shoot the puck. The new guy puts the game first. What he doesn’t do is hook up with the other new guy—a hot athletic trainer who lives in my building. Gavin needs this job with my team. He’s a single dad with responsibilities. We can’t be a couple. My arrogant agent–who’s also my father–will lose his mind if I’m dating a dude. And my team needs me to score goals, not whip up a media circus. Too bad Gavin and I are terrible at resisting each other…</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 7 Fantasy Romance Books to Read This Fall  - A Rival Most Vial - RK Ashwick</image:title>
      <image:caption>Rival potion shops? Cozy found family? Give me more! Ambrose and Eli are two of my favorite cozy fantasy characters, and their rivalry turned lovers romance is the absolute sweetest. It’s so natural to see them grow together, and their chemistry is perfect. This is a whimsical story paired with the coziest of feelings, and you’ll just want one of Sherry’s cookies and a hot chocolate. It’s witty and heartwarming and the world building is absolutely incredible.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 7 Fantasy Romance Books to Read This Fall  - A Pack For Autumn - Emilia Emerson</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hello to my favorite omegaverse author. This cozy fantasy romance is absolutely delightful, taking you into Starlight Grove and giving you the warmest of aesthetics for your fall tbr. If you’ve ever wanted to ease yourself into omegaverse, Emerson does a fantastic job with her books, and A Pack for Autumn even has it in the title - it’s a perfect autumn read!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 7 Fantasy Romance Books to Read This Fall  - Storm &amp; Sacrifice - Laura Winter</image:title>
      <image:caption>Yes, I’m dropping one of my titles because this one is for readers who like their romantic fantasy a little darker. Storm is set on the precipice of the Autumn Equinox and Blood Moon, which doesn’t quite scream cozy fantasy, but the novella length story is great for a quick binge read. This is the book you pick up on a stormy fall night, where lightning and thunder are your ambiance. Pair it with a shadow daddy, banter, and tension, and your fall tbr is set.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 7 Fantasy Romance Books to Read This Fall  - How Not to Court Your Human Captive - AK Caggiano</image:title>
      <image:caption>While it’s not necessarily a fall setting, diving into the Falling for Demons series is like an introduction to monster romance and cozy fantasy all in one. It’s low stakes featuring a grumpy x grumpy romance that will actually convince you to get into the kitchen and make all your favorite comfort foods. The vibes are very cozy, with a dash of extra spicy, and you’ll want to tuck yourself into blankets to read late at night.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Another installment of the Falling for Demons series, this one is peak cottagecore aesthetic. While not set in a fall season, it still gives the cozy fantasy vibes that make you want to curl up and enjoy a nice tea and your chunkiest sweater. A sunshine x sunshine romance, a fantasy world with no sun, and the most adorable main characters you’ll ever meet. Plus, the disability rep and caretaking will bring you all the coziest feelings.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 7 Fantasy Romance Books to Read This Fall  - Faeted to Fall - AK Caggiano</image:title>
      <image:caption>Another Caggiano fantasy romance that deserves a place on your tbr. There’s the obvious fall setting, fae mischief, mystery, and an enemies to lovers romance that is full of the most delightful banter. Our MMC is so smug, and it really pairs well with our FMC Maewyn who just loves to be an inconvenience to him. The magic that keeps them tethered is really quite unique, and with each exploration of the world, you really see the fall setting come to life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 7 Fantasy Romance Books to Read This Fall  - A Witch’s Guide to Fake Dating a Demon - Sarah Hawley</image:title>
      <image:caption>I cannot leave this list without one of my favorite cozy fantasy romances. Witches, demons, a rom-com that will have you falling in love. I laughed so often with this, and the tension between our two main characters is so rich. It really made for a chaotic but delightful read. This is a book I revisit often in the autumn season and consistently recommend to all my reader friends.</image:caption>
