Happy Friday!!
This will be our last Friday Giveaway of the year. My kids will be home next week and there is so much to do before Christmas gets here. I haven’t baked one cookie yet since I am trying very hard to get my diet and exercise under control once again as 2023 has been the year of stress-eating. There is no way I will keep my hands off hot, fresh cookies. There is just no way.
I hope everyone enjoyed their Hanukkah celebrations and/or have a lovely Christmas celebration. It has been a stressful year for me and I thank you all for still stopping by even though book reviews have been slim on this book review blog this year. Even if you only stop by on Fridays, it is still appreciated.
My fingers are crossed for a less stressful 2024 at my house and at yours as well. Hopefully 2024 includes more time and money for reading books, and if we can do it at the beach, that would be nice too.
Happy New Year to you all!

Seven years ago, he fell in love with a stranger he couldn’t have—today, she’s back in his life and the sparks between them threaten to set her career on fire.
Pearl Harris has learned the hard way to be careful in work and in love. When she is appointed acting director of OurCode, a nonprofit aimed at inspiring high schoolers to code, she has a chance to make lasting change for the organization, but a scandal has put their reputation at risk. Further complicating matters, Pearl didn’t expect the one man she hasn’t stopped thinking about in seven years to be the newest member of her board of directors.
Cord Matthews fell for Pearl when they met in an elevator seven years ago. She’s just his type: smart, capable, and makes him laugh, but when she broke his heart, he decided love wasn’t for him. After five years with no contact, their connection is immediate despite the many roadblocks in their way and Cord must consider breaking his ban on serious relationships. But going public with a romance between them might derail Pearl’s career and the progress she’s made at OurCode.
Pearl and Cord both are hesitant to trust their feelings and take a risk as they grow closer, but it becomes impossible to keep ignoring the electricity between them. Cord is a skilled programmer, but a workplace romance might spell disaster for both of them, and love isn’t easily debugged.
Hi Lucy! I’m so glad your kids will be home next week! I haven’t gotten my baking done yet either! This year just seems to have ran away from me!
Wishing you a Happy Holidays and a Stress-Free 2024!

That’s exciting! I’m also hoping to start a regular workout routine after the holidays. Happy New Year to you and your family!
Happy Holidays!
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your kids and 2024 is better than 2023 was!
Thanks so much!
