Sunday Post - 09/05/21

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~this meme was inspired in part by ~ In My Mailbox~ It's a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.

Monday and Tuesday we were dealing with the remnants of Hurricane Ida, which in our area just meant some wind and a ton of rain. There were isolated tornados so as I was pulling into the parking lot to get Little Boy from school and I realized that I forgot he had gymnastics that day and I had an extra 15 minutes, I got a notification from Big Girl's school that said they were dismissing at 2. Since none of that would leave me any time to eat lunch, I ran to grab Jack's for lunch. Rushed to eat it in the car before Little Boy could see. Picked him up. Got gas on the way back to my mom's. Dropped him off to eat lunch. Nursed Baby Boy. Then left immediately after that to go get Big Girl from school. We drove through a ton of rain and areas that were beginning to flood, but we are so blessed that is all we encountered. Monday was also my sister's birthday. Shout out to her. Wednesday, Big Girl's 2nd tooth came out in the car after I picked her up from school. She did it all by herself by twisting it and pushing it in "all different directions" so she said. We've not gotten to see her with that snaggle-tooth look because both of her adult teeth have come in before the baby teeth fell out. I hope that doesn't continue. Anyway, the tooth fairy came during the night so Thursday morning she woke up a little richer. Husband and Little Boy are struggling with some sinus issues. There's been a lot of sneezing and runny noses. I can relate because I was struggling a few days ago. The pollen count is going up here. Saturday, we went to Georgia for our great-nephew's 2nd birthday party.

Goodreads description--Lord Adam Dunsbourne is a tyrant. At least, that’s what everyone says. The tales are shocking: accounts of a man who gambled away the family fortune and keeps his younger sister, Emily, captive in their home at Dunsbourne Manor. So when Adam and his sister make an unexpected appearance at a dinner party, the scandalized whispers cannot be contained. New to the town, Phoebe Hadford hears the condemning rumors and determines to do all she can to help the baron’s oppressed sister. Upon entering Dunsbourne Manor, however, she quickly discovers that all is not what she has been led to believe.

Adam, unsure of whether he can trust the intentions of his beautiful neighbor, is quickly drawn in by Phoebe’s genuine nature. But even as Adam and Phoebe’s connection deepens, a dangerous enemy from Adam’s past reemerges. For years, Adam has hunted for the man who betrayed him, not realizing he had only to wait. His foe has returned, and this time, he will threaten everything Adam cherishes most—including the woman he loves.

That's it for my shelves and recaps of my past and upcoming week. What did you add to your shelves this week? Any bookish news you want to talk about? Let me know!
