Happy book birthday to @msthienkim! I can't wait to dive into her second book! New Orleans? A boudoir photographer heroine? Opposites attract? SIGN ME UP! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ About the book: Boudoir photographer Josie Parks never ever takes a vacation. But when a client cancels a New Orleans shoot at the last minute, she decides to fly out from her Washington, D.C., studio anyway. Maybe the trip will reawaken her recently stagnant muse. After all, it’s Mardi Gras season… ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Spencer Pham has come home after twelve soul-sucking years in corporate hell to pursue his passion: making a docu-film on his family’s history as the first Vietnamese Mardi Gras krewe. The last thing he expects is getting whacked in the head by a beautiful woman trying to snag some parade beads. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ During a long night at urgent care, Spencer and Josie connect over their artistic pursuits. He offers to show her the real New Orleans, if she’ll help him with the camerawork for his film. Despite Josie’s type-A personality clashing with Spencer’s laissez-faire attitude, they seem to make a great team, and soon, the good times are rolling both on and off camera. But Josie has a life in D.C., and they both have big dreams they’re chasing. When this Big Easy fling starts feeling awfully serious, can they find a way to choose between personal and professional passion? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #romcom #bookbirthday #bookstagram #bookish #amreadingromance #romancebooks #romanceauthor #romancereader #AvonBooks #bookstagram #VietLit #aapiauthors #AsianBooks #dc #romcom #diverseromance #inclusiveromance #irromance #HappilyEverAvon #FullExposure #interracialromance #romancebooks #Romancelandia https://www.instagram.com/p/Co7YCeML1v3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is a Stanley appreciation post in honor of "Love Your Pet Day" ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you haven't read any of the Coffee Lover's Mystery series yet, then Stanley might be a new face for you! Adorable little Stanley is Lana's golden Shih Tzu and faithful companion in all the books. And, as you can see from the covers, he gets into his fair bit of trouble as well! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Readers might not know Stanley is based on my dog Gigi. She’s so funny and sweet that I had to include a little Shih Tzu in my books! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Do you have any furry friends? Share in the comments what you have and how you picked their name! . . . . #loveyourpetday #shihtzu #loveyourpet #taralush #tamaralush #thebooklush #amwritingromance #amwriting #amwritingcozymystery #romancebooks #cozymystery #cozymysterybooks #wattpadauthor @crookedlanebooks #crimefiction #sistersincrime #glassonion #knivesout #onlymurdersinthebuilding https://www.instagram.com/p/Co4xyfwrMIq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Okay this is a tough one because you may be thinking to yourself, "no way is this true! No one would think a transparent shopping bag would be enough of a mask to obscure your face while robbing a store!" And you could be right... but we are talking about Fiction or Florida today, so choose wisely! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You know the drill: drop a 👎 if you think this is pure fiction and a 👍 if you think this is a true event, and just another day in Florida! . . . . . . #weirdflorida #ohflorida #fictionorflorida #thebooklush #writinginspiration #cozymystery #crimefiction #bookstagram #booknerd #gulfcoast #fridayvibes #amwritingromance #floridaauthor #amwriting #amwritingcozymystery #romancebooks #cozymystery #cozymysterybooks #wattpadauthor #wattpadbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CoxIQytLKg_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Friday friends! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am so excited for this weekend now that I am feeling a bit better and my coughing has slowed down! So to welcome us to the weekend, let's do another round of Fiction... or Florida? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In this week's challenge- did a Florida man REALLY drive a stolen truck to the Space Force base to warn us all of a battle between aliens and dragons? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You know the drill, drop a 👎 if you think this is pure fiction and a 👽 if you think this is a true event, and just another day in Florida! . . . . #weirdflorida #ohflorida #fictionorflorida #thebooklush #writinginspiration #cozymystery #crimefiction #bookstagram #booknerd #gulfcoast #fridayvibes #amwritingromance #floridaauthor #amwriting #amwritingcozymystery #romancebooks #cozymystery #cozymysterybooks #wattpadauthor #wattpadbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CofNFiiLMoj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Did you know that all of my cozy mysteries are in audiobook AND on @spotify? Isn't that awesome? You can buy and listen to my audiobooks on audiobook platforms like Audible and Libro.FM, and right on your Spotify app. Do you listen to audiobooks? I do, while I'm walking. My current listen is The Golden Couple by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. I especially love listening to twisty domestic thrillers while walking.

Look how good they all look together 😍 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We are almost a full week out of CRASH coming into the world and I have been overwhelmed by the response from all my incredible readers. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you're following me on social media, you might have seen my rather dramatic post from Saturday involving my husband's car catching on fire. Never a dull moment, folks! Luckily, everyone is safe, but I am definitely going to enjoy unwinding this week from a very eventful week! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are some things you are looking forward to this week? . . . . #taralush #tamaralush #thebooklush #amwritingromance #amwriting #amwritingcozymystery #romancebooks #cozymystery #cozymysterybooks #wattpadauthor #wattpadbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CoCw62LrbrR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
