House Andrews have received their author copies of the Arcane Society Hidden Legacy Special Edition Box, which contains Nevada’s trilogy: Burn for Me, White Hot and Wildfire.
They are stunning hardcovers, with sprayed edges and dust jacket illustrations by the very talented @helena.illustrated. I have it on good authority that Kid 2, a book connoisseur, has immediately nabbed the set for her own enjoyment.

As per tradition, one of you also gets to walk away with the special edition box like a triumphant ferret at the end of a very shiny heist. And the best part (I think), House Andrews’ signature and personalised dedication are available upon winner request!

I am thankful for sunshine and rain. I am truly blessed for my family, friends and all those people who have touched my life.
I am thankful for my wonderful two daughters. They make my life so much More! Venting to each other when we are upset or sharing an exciting news, talking about books or music, or anythingat all. Simply listening to their voices fill me with so much joy!
I’m thankful for my siblings. They frequently drive me crazy but I can’t imagine me life without them in it.
I’m thankful for my forever patient husband and my loving family. I would not be able to do half of the things I love to do without their help and support. On a less cliché note, I am also very thankful for fans. Of this group or fans of anything or anyone else. They make the world a better place with all of their love and support.
I am thankful for still being able to get out of bed, my brain working fairly well, and being able to walk even though I’m creaky and wobbly at times. ( anything after that is gravy) It sounds trite but this was my husband’s approach to life and he was a happy man until the he passed away. So I adopted his philosophy and I worry less and smile more.
Thankful for the steady relationships in my life. Husband, family, friends, and kitties.
I am thankful for returning good health after a long journey. Blessings to you all!

I am grateful for technology that makes distance from family far easier to bear.

Thank you for everything you have done. And also, I would be very happy to win the Special Edition Box. :^)
I’m grateful for the delightful mother-in-law and father-in-law I’ve been blessed with, who visited for Thanksgiving. That’s not sarcasm by the way, they really are wonderful and don’t read this blog. I’m also grateful for my parents who are a presence for warmth in my life even when far away.
There is so much for which I am thankful! The love, loyalty, and support of a family that makes me proud and strive to be a better person every day!

I’m thankful that my body and mind let me do the things I love to do.
I am thankful for family that enjoys my company when I visit and that my parents are still alive to make memories with. Also that my Dad will randomly call me to make a book recommendation even if the conversation only comprises of the title of the book and asking whether I have read it yet. That man is terrible it phone conversation and I absolutely love the effort.
I am thankful for books that immerse you into its story/world when you need to escape reality for a bit.

I am thankful for my cats who always love me.
I am thankful for true and enduring relationships and for the time to nurture and care for those connections.
I’m greatful that I had my brother visit for the last 3 months. It’s been rough for him since both our parents died. We’ve had a lot of fun together and I think it helped him be here in Italy so far away from all the painful reminders and difficulties back in the US. It was really great to make some good memories together.
I am thankful for my kids. My son, William, is autistic and finished/tested out of his speech therapy and my daughter, Elizabeth, is a straight A student. Both are good kids and I am thankful every day.

I am deeply thankful that all four of my are still parents living (and still living independently, which is amazing considering they’re in their late 80s and mid-90s.)
Pretty yarn and ergonomic knitting needles! I’ve been getting back into knitting and it’s been a delight!
I am thankful for the time we had with loved ones that have passed. This was a hard year, so I’m thankful for the memories.
I’m thankful that I caught my heart disease before I had a heart attack. If you’re a woman over 50, especially if you have Type II diabetes, please go to a cardiologist for a baseline check up. It saved my life.
I am thankful for my family and friends, and a good book that can help you escape the realities of life!
I am thankful for my dog, Roscoe. Roscoe is sixteen and my soul dog. Everyday with him is a blessing and I’m doing my best to stay in the present and enjoy my time with him. He has made my life better in so many different ways. Provided me with safety both physically and mentally. We have traveled fearlessly together – well, maybe not fearlessly BUT he gave me the courage to go forth and wander without another human. He’s provided endless love and laughter. In short – he’s awesome and I love that I was lucky enough to adopt him when he was a wee puppy. He’s saved me in so many different ways.
I am thankful for the blessings of friends and family, including those of the feline variety!
I got my dream job this year. I’m so thankful for new beginnings, accompanied by snuggles from my old and very beloved cats.
I am thankful for growth, continued learning and understanding. Although I consider myself pretty successful my parents have labelled me a black sheep in certain circles due to not following their script of what they planned for my life. I was hurt for a long while but by curating a circle of friends and found family, my parents rhetoric doesn’t hurt me anymore. My found family also includes my amazing partner, with whom together we have formed strong but unusual (to most but not all) life partnership.
I am thankful for my family, which exists because we choose to be a family. Some of us were born to the same parents, some of us chose to marry, some of us chose to declare ourselves family or accept the invitation to become family. Each of us chooses to be part of my family. I am in constant awe of what we’ve created together. Your stories – every one of them so far – pays tribute to families like mine. I am thankful that you work so hard to create them.
Better late than never?😊
This year, as I look around and see so many poor souls suffering and barely able to make ends meet, and/or not able to be with their loved ones, I am especially thankful for everything I’ve been taking for granted: food, clothing, a roof over my head, and especially being able to hug my husband and daughter.
I’m also very thankful for everyone that I see pitching in and helping those who are hurting right now. When I recently went to donate at local food drives, it gave me great hope to see so many people of all colors and ages helping out. I want to believe that most people are good, and that maybe this will make a difference? I sure hope so…
I am thankful for my family
I am thankful that I get to have today and all the many tomorrow’s that will come with my family.
I am re-reading the Hidden Legacy series for the second time around, and am also thankful I stumbled upon this post!
I am thankful to be retired so that I have time to read and reread and reread all my favorite books – especially The Innkeeper Chronicles!
At the risk of sounding ingratiating, I am genuinely thankful for inventive, hard-working authors and artists who make works of art that bring some light and joy into the world.
I am thankful for my newest cat Cocoa, even if she loves my husband best. We lost both the other pets this year and the house would be so empty without her.
Thankful for my sister telling me to live in Alaska for my next duty station. So much snow, darkness and cold that you think twice before you go outside but it is beautiful and a wonderful adventure.
I’m thankful for the 4th child we will be meeting in January, after 2 years of trying and miscarriages. It’s made the holidays so exciting for the kids, because it’s become more real to them the farther I’ve gotten in my pregnancy. They’ve even picked out Christmas presents to wrap and open “for the baby”, even though he won’t be here until a month later. Sweet babies.
I am thankful to be able to actually enjoy being in my house. It has been one very expensive thing after another, but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel! I finally feel I can breath again and appreciate all that I have accomplished with it. Now I can sit back and relax… for a little while anyway!
I am thankful to have woken up this morning and having been given the gift of one more day. Yes, I know anyone reading this was given the same gift, but I’m thankful all the same. I might not get this gift tomorrow, so I’m going to make today count.
I’m going to tell my family I love and am so proud of them. I’m going to make listening a priority. Kindness my watchword. Community my kin. I’m going to take care of myself because when I go to bed tonight I know I will not have changed the world, but I will have tried to show how thankful I have been for the gift of one more day.
Of course I’m thankful for all the good things in life like having a job, a nice home, a car that work, family, etc., but right now I’m extra thankful that Aldi has my favorite chocolate creations which is like a truffle coated in cocoa powder and the delight my taste buds have as it melts in my mouth is amazing.
I’m thankful for my husband, son, and my son’s family.
Thankful for friends and family and spending time with everyone. And health – because I’m always thankful for good health.

I’m forever and always grateful to every moment I get to spend with my two favorite people: my daughter and my husband. You never know how many moments you’ll get, so be thankful for all of them. 💜
