 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: The magic of Christmas—and a second shot at romance—is in the air in Shelter Springs this holiday season…Amanda Taylor isn’t a fan of Christmas, but as the owner of a local soap shop, ignoring the holiday season isn’t an option.

I must be spending too much time on TikTok but the algorithm somehow brought me to the side of ColorTok. From the Disney coloring books to the Ohuhu markers I have become obsessed with not only watching coloring videos but coloring itself. Thank goodness for Amazon and their speedy deliveries because I just couldn't wait to get my hands on some coloring books and markers.  Financially, I'm a few hundred dollars deep in this new hobby of mine. And while I am writing this out I have a pending order waiting to be shipped to me. Of course, I included a few items that I desperately need that isn't related to coloring to try to convince myself I don't have a problem. And to get free delivery...of course!  When I first started on this journey I had a Crayola set of markers and I was on the hunt for some cool coloring books. Well color me impressed (see what I did there? Pun intended) that retail stores weren't able to help me find the coloring books I was looking for. I do...

Product Summary: Get your colour fix from 8 tasty shadows that arm you up like a hot latte on a cool morning. There's no jitter, only glitter (and creamy perfection) from these gorgeous shades that keep you going long past morning. Bought this palette on sale for $25. ***Cruelty free*** When I first used this palette I was a little bit nervous that the lightest shade Kool Whip would be too light but it works amazingly on the lid. It has a tiny bit of sheen which you wouldn't notice unless you swatch it. I love using Kool Whip to brighten and open my eyes. It just looks so good. All these shades are extremely pigment and blend really well individually and together.  There is some fallout if you pick up too much product so just pick up a little bit of product and if needed you can build the colour up. All these colours work together so well. You can pair up any 2 colours and they will work well together. It's super easy to create a quick eye look and be on the go to start you...

(Disclaimer) I received this book for review. I am in no way, shape or form being compensated for this review. All thoughts and opinions are solely mine. One thing I wanted to say is that Joanne was just so sweet she left me a little note inside the novel. She wrote for me to immerse myself in the spirit of the holidays, Awe I was gushing when I read that note. That was just too darn sweet. This story is about Juliette Swanson that left her home town of Glenville, Washington and moved to the big city to go to college and work her way up the corporate ladder. She decided to move back home and she fell in love with the family feel and the close knit group of girlfriends she shares everything with. The Schwartz Christmas tree farm house has been put up for sale as well as the ski resort. Juliet and her friends bought the farm house and renovated it so they can all start their own businesses. However, Colton Weatherly a city corporate guy comes into town trying to acquire the ski res...
