Ho ho ho, yβall! βοΈ Christmas is coming!
I know what yβall are thinking. Just a few newsletters ago, I was waxing poetic about fall. And I *might* be drinking a pumpkin spice latte while I write this. βοΈ (I totally am.) But Iβm also celebrating Christmas this week, because the new glittery second edition of my book Once Upon A Royal Christmas has just been released by Harpeth Road Press! π
We will get to all the details in just a second, but first, while we are talking about fall, I have to tell you about the book Iβm currently reading. Remember how I sent out a list of fun autumn reads recently? Click here if you missed it. Well, since then, I heard about a super cute romcom called The Pumpkin Spice CafΓ©. The title alone convinced me to read it, and I am loving it so much. Itβs a small town gumpy-sunshine romance with loads of fall vibes. The hero is a literal pumpkin farmer and the heroine owns a coffee shop called the Pumpkin Spice CafΓ©. Need I say more? Anyhoo, Iβm really enjoying it, and the Kindle version happens to be on sale for just 99 cents today!
Okie doke, back to Christmas! βοΈ
Once Upon A Royal Christmas is back, and itβs got a gorgeous new cover! Seriously, how beautiful is this??!!
The heroine of this book is Gracie Clark, and she owns a company called Perfect Party Princesses, which is a costume-character business that provides a variety of fairytale princess characters for childrenβs birthday parties, school events, weddings, tea parties and corporate gigs. (In other words, my dream job.)
So really, the best person to tell you about the book is probably Gracieβs royal alter-ego, Princess Snowflake! π
While weβre talking about royalty, one of my dearest friends is Kristin Contino, who is the Senior Royal and Celebrity Editor at Marie Claire. Kristin and I originally βmetβ on Instagram and weβve been real-life friends for a long time now. We even traveled to London together for Queen Elizabeth IIβs Platinum Jubilee in 2022 and for King Charlesβ coronation in 2023 with some of our other royal-watching friends from IG. Here we are at The Ivy in Covent Garden with the King himself. π
Kristin just did a fabulous exclusive interview with Queen Elizabethβs personal hat maker, Stella McLaren. Itβs fascinating. I loved reading it and reminiscing about the late Queen. She was truly one of a kind.

So I lied. That wasnβt quite the last thing. π While we are getting in the Christmas spirit, I also want to share my amazing friend Jenny Haleβs brand new cover reveal! The cover for her novel The Noel Bridge was just unveiled yesterday, and it is cozy, festive and beautiful!
Okie doke, that is allβ¦for real, this time! Charm and I hope you have a lovely weekend!
