Cover Reveal: Not Looking by Alaina Rose

 



Excited to share the cover of Not Looking by @alainarosebooks ! Coming July 7th!
 
What to expect: 
🏡 Small Town
🥰 Single Mom
🤫 Secret Identity
❤️‍🔥 Dislike to Lovers

Susan Merriman has her hands full. Single-mothering fourteen-year-old twin girls, she just wants to shuttle them to Starling Hills High School with minimum psychological damage. Without her planner and Dungeons and Dragons party to bolster her up, she's not sure she could keep her whirlwind day-to-day in check.
 
Enter Dillon Weaver, Fun Uncle extraordinaire and new in Starling Hills after his job was “eliminated.” For the next few weeks, Dillon is in charge of his thirteen-year-old niece while her parents travel Europe. Talk about being thrown into a cave of trolls!
 
Both are fans of the same D&D podcast, chatting to each other in an online server. After they unknowingly meet at their girls' soccer game, Dillon's golden retriever energy couldn't antagonize black cat Susan more. They run into each other at school pick-up and parent teacher conferences, with the final blow being when Dillon scores an invite to Susan's D&D group.
 
Neither are looking for love, but they can't deny the sparks. After all, they say the best things show up when you're not looking.

Huge Thank you to LoveNotesPR for letting me join the cover reveal!

Tell Me Something Tuesday: Choosing your next read

   That's What I'm Talking About 's Tell Me Something Tuesday   is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general.  June 17th: How do you choose what to read next? I am a big mood reader, and my mood is always changing so I typically don't follow any kind of schedule for reading - I just kind of look around at what I own and grab what sounds best. My library holds usually end up choosing for me as once I get a book up from the library, I usually want to jump right into it. I have gotten super into applying for and reading ARCs lately so deadlines for the reviews have been choosing for me lately. The time of year is also a big factor in how I choose because once September rolls around, I kick into a gear where I only wanna read horror & mystery and that won't stop until Halloween and by then I am ready for Winter and Christmas themed reads.

Tell Me Something Tuesday: How Do You Read?

That's What I'm Talking About 's Tell Me Something Tuesday   is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general.  June 3rd: Paper, electronic, audio… How do you read? Has it changed in recent years? This year I sit at 75% of the books I read being physical copies and 25% being electronic which is slightly higher than normal for me - my all time stats have ebooks making up only 18% of my total reading, I think I have been on the rise this year because I have gotten into applying for and reading ARCs. I have tried multiple times to get into audiobooks but I get distracted too easily for them. Last year I got back into going to the library and 35% of the books I have read this year have come from there instead of from my own collection of unread books.

Tell Me Something Tuesday: New To Me Authors

  That's What I'm Talking About 's Tell Me Something Tuesday   is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general.  June 10th: New to me authors: who have you discovered in the past year? I have discovered so many authors that I love in the past year! I made myself pick my top five though to keep this post from ending up too long. 1. Rebecca Ross - After ages of putting it off because I was worried it would be overhyped, I read Divine Rivals in July of last year and I immediately fell in love with her writing. She has a way with words that is so whimsical. I love the worlds and characters that she creates. I have read two more of her books since Divine Rivals and have loved every single one. I really need to focus on catching up on her backlist. 2.A.B. Poranek - I discovered this author through their debut novel, Where the Dark Stands Still. Their writing is also whimsical - the world in this book was beaut...
