The Salon of Enchanted Beauty by Anna Mittower

A quirky fantasy that leaves you wanting more...

A friend recommended this short story and I must say, it draws you in. With a quirky sorceress who has a knack for not following the norms of society, you instantly fall in love with Philliya and wonder just how she is going to solve her problems so she can live the life she wants to live.

Without spoiling the story, Philliya opens up shop but struggles to get customers. Finally snagging one, she must solve their quite serious problem or her dreams of being a successful shopkeeper is ruined.

The main character is the loveable, perky younger sister who is bound to cause her older brother loads of issues in the future. The short story is set up in a way that each story can be a single one shot of mini adventures of Philliya, which is nice for those who don't want a large reading commitment due to lack of time (looking at my infant...). It's a quick ready, around an hour for me, where the sorcery practically comes alive. I've already preordered the next book in the series.

I hope you enjoy this story as much as I did. I can't wait to read more of Philliya's adventures.  I've already preordered the second one.  Besides, Philliya might be a fun cosplay with her purple hair and yellow eyes.

Check it out on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BTYZR6HY/

Forbidden Griffin by Zoe Chant

I received "Forbidden Griffin" by Zoe Chant as an ARC.  "Forbidden Griffin" is a shifter romance between two exiled griffins.  While trying to avoid too many spoilers, Cela is exiled from Griffin Island because her babies were not born griffins.  A nice enforcer suggests she find Tyr to help her out.  Needless to say, Cela and Tyr get a lot more than they bargained for when they meet and Tyr helps Cela get used to living in a human world, as Cela had never been off the island.  They'd make a nice family... if only they could touch.  The story follows Tyr and Cela's journey to break their curse and become a family along the way.  It's a sweet story of new beginnings and second chances, as well as new and blended families.  Though this is the 8th book in Chant's Bodyguard Shifters series, it is easily read as a standalone, though there are a few references to things that happened in prior books.  I will definitely be going back to read the othe...

The Trouble with Christmas by Amy Andrews

Amy Andrews captured my attention as she brings in surly Joshua Grady and Suzanne St. Michelle together in what turns out to be one of the most cringe-worthy Christmas holidays to date. Opposites attract in this holiday romance as the chatty artist's muse takes flight and makes the lone rancher open up his heart again for the first time in seventeen years. Not only does "Suzy" interrupt Grady's peace of mind, but she brings in her parents as she tries not only to dig out from the giant lie she told but also to save her parent's marriage. Can she survive her own lie as she has the Christmas of her dreams? Or will the lie swallow both her and Grady as small time rumors escalate the relationship further. Book can definitely be read on its own, but have already ordered the first book from the library so I can read the rest the beginning of the Credence, Colorado series.

Ancord Bluetooth Speaker from FREEWISE Review

Hey all! I love this mini Bluetooth stereo from FREEWISE. It is great for us cosplayers who like to make videos of us in character or sing our favorite songs from the series. Also, pay attention to this review because I may be GIVING AWAY one of these great speakers soon! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GR46AVU/ About the Seller: The seller was very prompt in sending the package and it arrived on time. I did not need to contact the seller and everything was packaged well. Video Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-42QM_6W0o About the Product: I chose to review the blue Ancord Bluetooth Speaker from FREEWISE but it actually comes in three colors: blue, rose gold, and silver. The speaker comes with a connector so you can hang it off your phone, a charging cord (though it can be any mini USB cord as my phone charger works perfectly with it), and directions. It is pretty easy to set up even without the directions (I should know as I accidentally left the direction...
