Happy Birthday, Loren Hale!

One of my absolute favorite male leads is celebrating his 26th birthday today!  At this point in the Addicted timeline, Lo (and Lily :)) have overcome so much and are continuing on a positive path.  Sure, they still struggle everyday with temptation but let's face it, they will be struggling with it for probably their entire life.  What's important is how much they've grown and how much stronger they've become.  Lo's transformation and character progression is one of my favorites to witness.

I look back and remember how amazed I was (and still am) at Lo's unconditional love for Lily.  He truly is one remarkable human being (ha! listen to me talk like he's a real person. He's real to me, I don't care what people say! :P).  HAVE ONE HECK OF A BIRTHDAY, LOREN HALE!

** Flashback to the very first videos I made (keep in mind, I was still a novice in video-making)**

When Lo was one of the nominees for the NA Crush Tourney in 2014

Okay, okay, enough with the nostalgia (*sniff* I have something in my eye).

Be sure to head on over to the Fizzle Force group on Facebook for an exclusive treat!!  And don't forget to visit Krista & Becca's blog, as I'm sure they won't forget to celebrate Lo's birthday today.

In celebration of Lo's birthday, I am giving away one mug - winner's choice!  Winner can take their pick of one of the following two designs:

Everyday is TACO day

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOREN HALE!

(The adorkable) Lily's best friend, soul mate, and true love, Lo is celebrating his 25th birthday in the Addicted universe today!  Halloween will always have a special meaning to me since I started this series because it celebrates Lo's birthday.  It also marks an important milestone in the story because in Addicted to You, it's the time that Ryke enters Lo and Lily's life. 

In the past character birthdays this year, we've celebrated by posting bonus material in the Fizzle Force Facebook group and this time will be no different.  So, if you're a member, go forth and read on!  If you're not already a member, we welcome you to join!!  Lo has come a long way from the start of the series and we're all very proud of the man he is today.  To me, he went through the most character growth in the series and I just have so much love for this man!

As always, Krista & Becca are also celebrating Lo's birthday so be sure to check out their blog!

Happy Birthday Lo!

I'm so bummed that I've been pressed for time and didn't get to plan anything special to celebrate Lo's birthday ☹

However, my and Lanie's new partner in crime, Jennifer, at the Fizzle Force group page on Facebook has something fun going on at her blog for Lo's day!!

Head on over to The Fluttering Heart Book Nest to help us celebrate and wish Lo a happy birthday!  *psssst! There's also a GIVEAWAY involved!* 

What makes today even more special, aside from the fact that it's also Halloween ☺︎, is that today is also the release day for Addicted After All !  So, I'm sure most (if not all) of you fans out there are already busy reading Lily & Lo's last book in the Addicted Series.  I'm rooting for their happily ever after ❤︎

Krista & Becca are also celebrating Lo's special day (duh!) on their blog, so be sure to go forth and see what they've posted!  *psssst!  There's another GIVEAWAY involved!*

Also, if you missed it, here is the full Addicted After All Tour schedule with the link to all the stops!
