I’m back in Hawaii and so enjoying the time with my boys. It’s been six weeks since I saw my guy Ty and three weeks since I held Mac. It’s so good to be back with them both, and now Jake arrives from California tomorrow with a couple of friends. All I need is son Ty to be here too so I’d have my whole family with me, and it would be perfect! Unfortunately, I have to wait another 2 weeks to see that boy. It’s a tough summer this year with everyone spread out in so many different directions.
Conference in Atlanta was fantastic – hectic but so much fun. It was great to see my editors and catch up with my friends. There’s always a crazy, fun energy that makes it an unforgettable event each year. But now I’m happy to enjoy some quiet time on the beach and catch up on my reading. I’ve just finished reading an ARC for Mary Balogh’s The Arrangement. Awesome, awesome book. Loved it!! And before that I read Lorraine Heath’s Lord of Wicked Intentions. I honestly love coming to Hawaii as it gives me a chance to get caught up on reading so many of my favorite authors!
I woke up to great news this morning from my author pal Kristina McMorris who shared that The Good Wife got a 4 1/2 stars review in RT BOOK Reviews Magazine and is an RT Top Pick! So excited to hear this fun news. Here’s a peek at the review –

I hope you are having a great time!!! I’m getting ready to read The Last Original Wife
So excited for The Good Wife! I’ve really loved this series. I haven’t done nearly enough reading this summer, but have quite the TBR stack. On our vacation, I read Shana Galen’s When You Give a Duke a Diamond, a couple of short stories and have Krisin Hannah’s Fly Away and Divergent by Veronica Roth both waiting for me next.
Enjoy the Hawaii time! Can’t believe it’s been a year since we were there, such a great trip. I love it there.
