I'm so glad you liked it!!

Exactly. We need to stop playing nice.

I hope the insomnia is worth it...or it goes away. I know how that goes.

LOVE! Thank you, Jackie! Always an honor to make it onto one of your lists! And whoa, Angela Lansbury. 😍

Yep. The era of the robber baron is still in full swing...

A blue and white illustration of a couple. She's in a red dress with her back to him. He's wearing a suit. Snow is falling. In the background is New York City. The book title is A Christmas Negotiation.

Also, Harlequin rebranded Book 4 as A Christmas Negotiation last year. So if you see this cover, it's the same book as A Christmas Rendezvous.

A couple kissing in the snow. Book title is A Christmas Temptation.

A couple about to kiss, sitting on a red couch. Book title is A Cinderella Seduction.

A couple in a passionate embrace in an art gallery. Book title is A Bet with Benefits.

A couple about to kiss in front of a romantic fire. Book title is A Christmas Rendezvous.

Since we're talking about category romance this week, I'd like to mention one of my series...The Eden Empire. It starts and ends with Christmas books, and is all about two sisters fighting for the future of their family's legendary NYC department store. karenbooth.net/the-eden-emp...

I believe we should all do as much good as we can. The world and humanity are not ours to plunder. Some of these people could fix systemic problems. But instead, there's an election to buy, so that you can force your will on other people. It infuriates me.

...and I just got my Apple Music replay for the year and my top-played album? FLOWERS. It's such an under-appreciated record! Love love love you! (But yes, I did name a character Echo in one of the 43 romance novels I've published. It's called Gray Hair Don't Care.)

Seriously, y'all will always hold such a special place in my heart. I have been a fan since 1982. My 26 yo daughter loves you, too, as does my husband. We have everything you've ever done on vinyl and listen often. I have a friend who spent an entire month following you around England in the 80s.

I WISH! I live in Chapel Hill, NC, where there are countless kick-ass musicians, and this is a group of folks from various bands you may or may not have heard before. They did a shorter Echo set at a fundraiser a year ago and people went bonkers for it, so now they're doing a longer one tonight.

The extra hilarious part? My hubby's company holiday party is tomorrow night and what's the entertainment? An Echo & the Bunnymen cover band. World's colliding! (And yes, my hubby's company is super cool...)

When starting Season 2 (or 3 or 4...) of an hour-long drama, I don't need the well-edited recap video. I need a slide presentation of each character, their name, and a dossier of important facts about them. Man, I struggled through Episode 1, Season 2 of The Diplomat!

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.
