Best Books of 2023
I don’t know about anyone else, but I had a lot of trouble with concentration in 2023. This took me away from reading a lot. There was just so much going on in the world, both the world around me and the one that surrounds me, that I got lost in my own thoughts. The books that would pull me out of myself were the ones on this list. Normally, my Best Books list is a lot of fiction and perhaps one…

Ok, things are getting real up in here! I just applied for my Library and Archives Canada account so that I can get ISBNs for my self-published works. And that means I need a publishing name. Romance & Love Press, here we come!
More big news: I've teamed up with @edhelwen1 and @ericdesmarais to write steamy scenes that happen after the fade to black in their upcoming novel: "Assassins! Accidental Matchmakers" available for pre-order now: https://49thshelf.com/Books/A/Assassins!-Accidental-Matchmakers
I just got the cover art that will be on the book, and it's the same artist as "Assassins! Accidental Matchmakers"; @pinkpiggy93. I'm super excited about this!

Podcast: Lockdown Love w/ Jen Kirsch https://ift.tt/2TCDW15
I’m listening to this right now and have to share! One of my BFFs Jen Kirsch, journalist & relationship expert, has a new podcast on eOne called Lockdown Love and I love it! It was the Monday boost I needed this morning to kickstart my workday and have a little laugh.
She shares real stories about her own dating during COVID, talks to experts and her dad Dr. Kirsch even makes an appearance to comment on her ‘dating’ during COVID.
I love her voice, her storytelling, and how funny she is. I was literally laughing out loud.
You don’t need to be dating to enjoy it but if you are, you might be going through some of the same things she is. I can’t wait to see what’s next in this 8-episode mini-series. Congrats Jenny Jen!
thought i was in a quarelationship with someone i met online but LOL, the joke was on me. for my debut podcast episode of #lockdownlove with @eOnePodcasts, i speak to dr. serge desmarais on the psychology behind why we're all lovelorn during these times https://t.co/2mNNtObt2v
— Jen Kirsch (@jen_kirsch) May 25, 2020
Looking for love in lockdown? Join dating expert and columnist Jen Kirsch as she searches for a socially (but hopefully not emotionally) distant Mr. Right! She talks with experts and exposes her own pandemic love life to help you figure out the Do’s and Don’ts of the strange world of dating in quarantine. Expect funny stories, surprising insights, and just a dash of drama.
Listen to Love Lockdown on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts!

Most meet-cutes don't include assassins. Most love stories don't involve becoming a superhero. Then again, Westmeath isn't like most cities.
Tumblr media
Kennedy Fairfield just graduated in the class of 2002, and is now trying to find her purpose in life, or at least a job in her field. When she saves Jason Johnson, the leader of a secret Community of supernatural people called Aetherborn, from an attempted assassination, they embark on a whirlwind epic romance and adventure.
For Kennedy and Jason to discover why people are disappearing in time to save her friends, they'll have to face teleporting assassins, grumpy wizards, gossiping hags, mafia robots, and secret military groups, all in the city of Westmeath, Ontario, which has more secrets than residents.
The first book of four in The Gates of Westmeath series.
