Grand Greek Salad

One of my favorite salads is definitely Greek. My son also shares this with me and many times we will have Greek Salad for lunch using Renee's Greek Dressing. It has no sugar in it so it is a great dressing when you are watching your sugar levels.

This salad has a homemade Greek Dressing and it was so good!! This salad was absolutely awesome and although I was mad at myself after for forgetting to put the olives on (they were on the counter).

This recipe came from the cookbook Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook. I have just begun to use this cookbook and am definitely happy with how things have turned out so far!

The chicken is marinated with olive oil and spices and it is simple but so tasty! I will definitely be using this marinade for chicken again.

Such a great dinner!

Romance Between The Pages presents this week's incredible bestselling author, Angel Payne


Ever wondered about the personalities behind your favorite books? Victoria Danann's new podcast with Riley J. Ford has an incredible lineup of authors booked through the spring. No question is out of bounds. Check it out!

THIS WEEK'S BEST SELLING AUTHOR...
ANGEL PAYNE!

USA Today bestselling romance author Angel Payne has been reading and writing her entire life, though her love for romances began in junior high, when writing with friends on "swap stories" they'd trade between classes. Needless to say, those stories involved lots of angst, groping, drama, and gooey kissing.

She began getting a paycheck for her writing in her twenties, writing record reviews for a Beverly Hills-based dance music magazine. Some years, various entertainment industry gigs, and a number of years in the hospitality industry later, Angel returned to the thing she loves the most: creating character-based romantic fiction. Along the way, she also graduated with two degrees from Chapman University in Southern California, taking departmental honors for English, before writing five historical romances for Kensington and Bantam/Doubleday/Dell.

Angel found a true home in writing contemporary-based romances that feature high heat and high concepts, focusing on memorable alpha men and the women who tame them. She has numerous book series to her credit, including the Kinky Truth series, the Secrets of Stone series (with Victoria Blue, to be re-released through Totally Bound Publishing starting late 2016!), the W.I.L.D. Boys of Special Forces series, and the acclaimed Cimarron and Temptation Court series.

Angel still lives in Southern California, where she is married to her soul mate and lives on a street that looks like Brigadoon, with their awesome daughter and Lady Claire, the dog with impeccable manners. When not writing, she enjoys reading, pop culture, alt rock, cute shoes, enjoying the outdoors, and being a gym rat.

My review of The Game Begins by Victoria Danann

The gods have been long known for their games and wars within themselves to gain power and superiority over the others. This time they have involved their children in their games and placed them on Earth with no memories of who they really are.

Ever Moore has just transferred to R. Caine High School with no knowledge of the school. She hates sticking out but has made a friend in Galalia Endor and has also caught the attention of two boys, Jean Marre Montreuil and Mercury Ryder.

Will Ever be able to figure out what is going around her and when she discovers a hidden talent will she trust anyone enough to share it?

This was a great book and i'm extremely excited to see what Ms.Danann has for us with her first YA book.

I really liked Ever and completely understood what she was feeling being the new kid at school. I'm extremely interested in seeing through the series who she can trust and who she can't. The book has given us some clues but not enough for me to discover what everyone's agendas are.

I loved Ever's trip to the library and hopefully this helps her in figuring out who she is! I also really like her friendship with Galalia and I hope that it is a true one!

I'm very curious in seeing what is really happening with the boys and seeing which one is truly on her side!
