MONEY SHOT by Eden FinleyPurchase link: https://shorturl.at/RdTu9
Okay, hear me out—Money Shot by Eden Finley is the kind of book that makes you grin like an idiot in public. It’s cheeky, charming, and just the right amount of spicy. Grab a copy, and let’s giggle our way through the banter together!

Whoa, your best-fit occupation is a mafia boss...
You're ruthless and hot-headed, but well-respected and diligent in your work. Sometimes you're frivolous with your money, but that's okay because you'll always get more!

How is your January going so far?!?!?
Every year I make "resolutions," and every year they look about the same-
READ MORE
RELAX MORE
SAVE MONEY
What do you guys do and how are you doing so far?
JANQUIZ2Pragmatist
You like to think of yourself as pragmatic and sensible, and yearn for organization and order in your day to day life. You hate sloppiness and recklessness, and only take calculated risks.
Yep, that's me! 🤭
✰ Liz ✰ wrote: "@Shhluts. How is your January going so far?!?!?"I stopped making new year's resolutions a few years back... and I never regretted it, lol! They were mostly the same each year anyway.... and I always felt 'guilty' when I couldn't stick to them. So, no more new year's resolutions.... and it's kinda liberating. 😀
I just finished my second book this year... but I'm in a bit of a reading slump. 🤔
So many books... but I don't know what I want to read at the moment. 😆

That is so wise! Maybe I need to embrace the same motto! LOL! I feel like I am also guilty of beating myself up!
@ THEARE: Reading slump
I find it to be even harder to get out of slumps after reading an awesome book! It's like nothing else can compare!
This week was the worst when it comes to reading. I feel like each night I would lay down- open my kindle- and then fall asleep! LOL!

I wish I had some updates on all of the amazing reads I read this week, but sadly, work really kicked my butt this week! I have to really get back on my reading this weekend!
Hope everyone has an amazing day!

LIZ’S PICK
THE SILENT WATERS by Brittainy C. CherryPurchase link: https://bit.ly/3YBnhMx
For the Month of Love, I chose The Silent Waters by Brittainy C. Cherry because this story embodies love in its quietest and most powerful form. “I was ten years old when I lost my voice.” Let’s dive deep into an emotional journey about connection, loss, and healing. When everyone else hears silence, Brooks Griffin truly listens. He becomes the light in her darkest moments—until tragedy strikes and leaves him drowning in his own memories.
This book is perfect for a month focused on love because it’s not just about romance, but about showing up for someone when words aren’t enough. It checks off several BBS 2026 Reading Challenge prompts and is also a Kindle Unlimited read, making it easy to grab and dive in. If you’re in the mood for a heartfelt, emotional story that stays with you long after you finish, this one is absolutely worth reading.
✅Kindle Unlimited
✅BBS 2026

MYLA’S PICK
EVERY SILENT LIE by Jodi Ellen MalpasPurchase link: https://acesse.one/zXzVc
Every Silent Lie is a contemporary romance novel, but be prepared for an emotional rollercoaster ride about Camryn Moore, a high-powered CFO who is deeply grieving a past trauma, and Dec Ellis, a mysterious man who helps her navigate her pain and open herself to love and healing.
✅Kindle Unlimited

LISSY’S PICK
TO CATCH A FIREFLY by Emmy SandersPurchase link: https://shorturl.at/dnBDl
If you’re into swoony slow burns and epic levels of pining, To Catch a Firefly is basically a cozy blanket in book form. Childhood friends-to-lovers, glass hearts, and declarations under the stars—it’s got all the feels. Come read it with me and let’s swoon, laugh, and maybe cry a little together.
