Saving Casey by Liza O'Connor

My review of Anywhere The Sun Shines

What a great set of short stories!!

Sunday Hill by Alisa Mullen

Kelinda Milliken attends Harbor Academy in Wells, Maine and is known as a nerd with no friends. Her mother, Anne, is one of the most popular painters and controls Kelinda's life. But an outing with friend and snowboarder Sadie Conway changes that.

Rory McCary is a snowboarder as well and is instantly attracted to Kelinda and the two begin a secret relationship.

When Anne finds out will she try to put a stop to it or will the love of Kelinda and Rory survive the ultimate betrayal?

This book made me both happy and sad although the end made me devastated! I loved the young love and Kelinda finally being able to do something that made her happy and that was be with Rory. 

A Beltane Gift by Holly Barbo

This was a story that took us to the past, the Vikings, through an enchanted archaeological dig and the love that Leda had with her husband.

Mari is working on the dig in Scotland but little does she know how connected she is to the site. Yet, it appears that someone is sabotaging her site and with the help of her friends and her link to the past they are able to uncover the mystery.

I really enjoyed the links to the past and how they came to Mari. Although she wasn't sure if what she saw was real it was done very well and I enjoyed how everything linked up together.

Summer Angel by Samantha Jacobey

Wow! This book is such a departure from what Samantha usually writes and it was well worth the wait!

Charlie Phillips is about to go reluctantly on summer vacation with his parents but all of a sudden nothing makes sense to him anymore when he meets Clarisse.

Clarisse must prove to Charlie that she is real and needs his help but is not yet sure of Charlie's real purpose!

A real page turner and it leaves you wanting the second book in a hurry!!

This book brought me to tears so many times as a mother. I can't imagine the pain that Roxanne must feel and it tore at me. Towards the end of the book there was a scene that just did me in and I was so happy that Roxanne was given a chance at finding a sense of happiness and closure.

My review of Toccata Obbligato ~ Serenading Kyra by Jennifer Theriot

Todd O'Malley is your typical lead guitar player in a band called Avenue. He's into drinking and having as many women as he can but he thinks that maybe there is more out there for him as he's just not enjoying himself the way he used to. 

Kyra Edwards is the typical girl next door - gorgeous and smart and when a chance encounter at a coffee shop allows the two of them to meet - sparks fly.

But Kyra has reservations about Todd's lifestyle and when that past of his catches up with him will it cost him his first true love?

I loved the story written completely from Todd's point of view and how the writing made me truly feel like I was talking with him. It was so well written and enjoyable! I loved the pain Todd felt emotionally and how he grew up right in front of our eyes!

4 Stars

Toccata Obbligato by Jennifer Theriot

Dream Doctor by J.J. DiBenedetto

This is the second book in the series and unfortunately I have not read the first one but I definitely plan to go back and read it and really recommend reading it first. The story contains references to the first one and it would definitely make more sense although I can honestly say I enjoyed this book without reading book one.

Sara Katarina Barnes has dreams that haunt her life and also give her insight into the people around her. Her current dreams revolve around a few topics, including one of her professors at school who wants to be Dean. Luckily Sara has her new husband Brian by her side to support her and help her navigate through everything.

I really liked the concept of this book and I will definitely going back and reading the first one before finishing the rest of the series. I found it refreshing as life isn't super easy for Sara and she has to work hard at school to become a doctor while also trying to solve her dreams before anyone gets hurt.

I really can't wait to go back and read book one and then the rest! Great job!!

4 Stars!

When you first meet Catherine and Jayden in To Serve is Divine, they aren’t looking for love at all. Catherine O’Chancey is a young submissive whose second Dom turned out to be an abusive fake.

The Divine Trilogy offers a different view of the BDSM world. 

One that will enlighten readers and show them that those who live this Lifestyle often do so because it is a deep-seated need within their psyche, something that can't be ignored. And that need is okay because, when practiced properly, BDSM is all about being Safe, Sane, and Consensual. Find within the pages a sampling of the different dynamics which can occur amongst kinksters. Everything from hardcore pain sluts to docile “littles” who want to be pampered and coddled, but the important thing to remember is that everyone has a place of acceptance, without judgement, in this Lifestyle. 

Time and again reviewers have said they couldn’t put this book down . . . even when they don’t usually read this genre.

WHAT AMAZON REVIEWERS ARE SAYING:

"The relationship between these two dynamic characters is one I love to revisit time and again."

"This series is phenomenal!"

"The Divine Trilogy by Ms. Hargrave is one of my favorite BDSM series on the market."

Grass and Blue Skies - Cherime MacFarlane

Reckless River by Lindsay Cross

Jared Crowe is out for a personal vendetta. He is back looking into his aunt Kathryn Crowe who tried to kill Jared and his brother Hoyt when they were children and he has never forgotten. They were rescued by a young girl whom he will never forget.

Now Jared is back and out for revenge when his brother has gone missing. Then as Jared is looking for Hoyt he is captured by Sparrow Pickney, the girl who saved him as a boy. But now that they are adults there is more on the line for both of them and more lives are in danger. Jared must decide if he can trust Sparrow but when it looks like he is led into a trap rescuing Hoyt, Sparrow is looking guilty.

Jared's trust keeps wavering back and forth with Sparrow but when it comes down to a deadly situation he must decide if what he feels towards Sparrow is true.

I thought this was a great book and I am loving this series! This book was somewhat deeper as it deals with a difficult past and many trust issues for everyone involved. I really enjoyed both of the characters of Jared and Sparrow and completely understand why each had walls around them and fears of being hurt.

I didn't see part of the end coming which was awesome! Although the very end of the book left me with so much heartache for Hoyt. I am really looking forward to the next book in the series!!

Review of Mr. Blackwell by A.B. Novak

Vivienne Gray is 23 years old and a journalist covering the Blackwell family. The Blackwell family, under Joseph Blackwell, managed to turn bow and arrows into a multi-million dollar operation.

Jace Blackwell, 25, is the inventor and tester of new products and takes Vivienne out to the swamp where he was bitten by a diamondback rattlesnake. But at night there is a mysterious man out there and in the morning he is gone.

Vivienne and Jace are immediately attracted to each other and their feelings for the other grows but everything is not as it seems.

In the swamp where the Blackwell's are from there are stories written about the voodoo queen of the swamp - the ruler of the shadow creatures. The voodoo queen wants something from both Jace and Vivenne - and will do anything to get it.

Will they be able to protect each other or will one sacrifice everything to save the other?

I enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more from this author. There were many levels to Vivienne that we learned about as the book went along and I felt like I was learning more which allowed me to get deeper into the book. The chemistry between Jase and Vivienne was immediate and I really wanted the two of them to succeed.

The book does leave you with a bit of a cliff-hanger and I am hoping that a second book is on it's way!!

Mr.Blackwell - AB Novak

Until You Fall In Love by Lyssa Layne

There are certain moments when you read a book and it makes your heart beat a little faster. This book is one of the books that did it to me. I loved this book and the characters of Abram and Jordan and wish I could find someone like Abram!

Jordan Glastetter is a single mom to son R.J. and raising him with her best friend Abram Tomko. Jordan is battling with herself in wondering if she is asking Abram to give up too much of himself to help her and her son out. 

What do you do if there is a possibility of loving your best friend yet if they don't feel the same you risk losing that friendship? It is such a fine line as it is a tough thing to risk.

There is so much emotion in this book and I was so excited that Mia and Tate James make an appearance or two in this book!! This book is such a great read and definitely tore at my emotions!!

Review of Starlight Wishes by M.E. Montgomery

But Tyler's reputation has a womanizer has Jennifer wanting to keep her distance.

Will Jennifer allow Tyler close enough to let her guard down to tell him the secrets of her past? Will Tyler be able to protect her from her demons and let her know that he truly loves her? But Tyler also has his own little demons that he needs to recover from as well.

I really enjoyed this book and this is the first time I have read this author but it won't be the last. I completely understood why Jennifer kept herself guarded and had reservations about Tyler. Their relationship is such an issue of trust and understanding and I like how it grew from a friendship to more. The supporting characters were fantastic and I loved Aiden.

Looking forward to reading more from this author!

Paranormal Affairs by Jami Brumfield

Katie in Denver by R.Colora

Michael Kerrigan has loved Katherine Blackwell for many years but he broke her heart and she has never forgiven him, although she has a kept a big secret from him for all these years.

As Katie and Michael try and figure out what they want from each other they begin and end their relationship many times, which isn't helping them. Yet, their families believe the two are meant to be together and will do whatever it takes to help them both see the light.

Yet, the road is not easy and when both Katie and Michael are faced with their own tragedies they need to discover if they really have what it takes to have a succesful relationship.

I really enjoyed this book as it really looked at the hardships of picking up a relationship from where you believe it ended to where it actually needs to start from. I loved the advice that Dr.Franklin gave Michael and his shock to how she dealt with him.

Again the family bond in the story is so strong and everyone really stuck together, yet would call each other out when necessary.

I can't wait for the next book in the series as the series as completely sucked me in!!

Menu Planning for the busy mom!!

I am a huge menu planner. I plan out a month at a time and do one big non-perishable a shop once a month. I still have to pick up fruits, veggies and sandwich meats, etc, once or twice a week but it doesn't take me long. I find we eat out way less and I have things ready to go after work and before sports/activities.

I print off pdf calendars on-line and then start filling in the days. I use Pinterest a lot for my recipes and whenever I use a recipe I write a blurb so I know that I have tried it and what I thought. I also try and use what we have in the house and still throw in some of the kids favorites. Right now I have nothing scheduled for Saturday's as that is my day to make something that I haven't made during the week if we were unable to eat it. Whatever doesn't get made this month gets transferred to the next month's calendar as I know I already have the non-perishables bought for it already.

Underneath the recipes you can see what board I have found it in on my Pinterest page. During the week I tend to cook real homemade meals less as we are usually super busy with activities.

I find life for me is so much easier by sitting down once a month and planning everything through! It's also so much fun using Pinterest and I love my boards! Hopefully you can use something like this to make your life a little easier if you have trouble deciding what's for dinner!

The Lonely Wolf by Monica La Porta

I think this book is one of my favorites by Monica La Porta. There is still the continuing characters but this one dove pretty deep into emotions!

Lucius Seneca Quintilius is a legitimate and powerful businessman/alpha werewolf. His only problem is that he has been in love with Ludwig for 2,000 years, an angel who is about to be promoted to archangel, one of the most powerful positions. They have kept their forbidden love affair a secret but their love is being tested and may not be able to survive as Ludwig comes closer to his new position.

Lupo Selis is an orphan and member of the notorious Red gang. He is trying to discover his father and the answer will shake him to his core. Then he falls in love with a girl who is forbidden to him, and promised to someone else.

This book is really about what we are willing to do for love and how sometimes it really doesn't turn out like we thought it would. It also involves putting our trust in others, some of which we can trust and some who will sabotage everything for self gain. I loved this one as it had me in tears at points but also gave me hope!

Great book!!

I loved this book and found I took so much away from it. I learned so much about autism and what the families go through. I loved the interactions between Sara, Melissa and the families and just felt so good after reading the book. I loved discovering more about Ryder and really loved the ending!! What a great book!!

Mattie Irons was rambunctious, charming, and smart. She was the apple of her parents’ eyes until her baby brother was born.

Now Mattie is feeling unloved, leaving Sebastian and Tess searching for a way to abate their daughter’s fears.

Kate Hamilton has made the move to England to be with her daughter and son-in-law. Her new upper-crust English life style is a long way from middle class suburbia in America.

Can she adapt to this new life as her daughter did and find love again?

Chicken Ranch Burgers

The other night for dinner the kids and I made Chicken Ranch Burgers. I found the recipe on Pinterest and it led me to the website of "Six Sisters' Stuff". I have made recipes from them before and have always enjoyed them.

This was an easy burger to make and I had my daughter read out the instructions while my son and I gathered the ingredients and put them in the bowl. It was a great family activity as all of us got to be proud of the dinner and both kids ate more than they do normally!

The only part I am constantly freaked out about is under-cooking the chicken. I am always so paranoid of that but they did cook all the way through! I think next time though I would make more than 4 patties and just make them a little smaller.  

The link for the recipe is: http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2013/05/chicken-ranch-burgers-recipe.html

My review of Cole for Christmas

Cole for Christmas by Kelly Collins

4 Stars

Chloe Craig is desperate for any design job she can get after struggling to make it in the ski town she has escaped to. She accepts a job to transform Mr.Cole's house into a winter wonderland in just 3 days before his family arrives. When her temp arrives she quickly puts him to work helping her with the house.

Elias Cole does not believe in the Christmas spirit but is very impressed with how his house has been transformed by the talented Chloe. He is instantly attracted to her but she will not cross that relationship line with a boss.

Will Elias and Chloe allow their feelings for each other to grow and when Elias gives Chloe another job will she take it or reject it based on her heart?

When Elias's family arrives and embrace Chloe will the truth come out?

This is such a sweet Christmas story that embraces the meaning of finding love when you least expect it. I loved Elias's family - especially Gretchen and Grandma!

Elias is one of a kind and his heart is huge!! Yet he is also cautious after having it broke a few times! I completely understand the hesitancy with Chloe wanting not to have a relationship with her boss after what she has gone through in her past.

Great Christmas love story!!

Cole for Christmas by Kelly Collins

Accidental Leigh by Melanie James

OMG - I seriously loved this book and laughed my way through it!

Leigh Epstein is a "single, overworked and under-fucked elementary school teacher" who decides to write a book after her favorite book boyfriend is killed. She buys a desk and begins to write her story but strange things begin to happen.

As Leigh realizes the strange occurrences are related to her story she begins to alter her story to help her friends out but things are not going as she planned. She strives to figure out how to straighten things out before it's too late. Plus she really does not want things to go wrong with the new man in her life, Hunter.

I seriously laughed through so much of this book and got some strange looks from the people around me on the airplane. I loved how so much went wrong and how imaginative Leigh got in trying to make people happy. 

I can't wait to read what happens in the next story!!

Another At Bat by Lyssa Layne

Troubled Souls

Rosalee Redford is infatuated with the Titanic and after visiting a special exhibit in las Vegas she now has been dreaming that she has been on-board the ship. Yet, things are getting stranger as she realizes she is not herself on the ship at all.

After hitting her head in the shower, her boyfriend Bradley gets her to the hospital and the two discover that she needs to solve a mystery regarding her dreams from the ship. Not everything is what it seems to be and there is definitely something going on.

This was a good mystery but I wish it had been longer to dive into some aspects of the story more that I felt were mentioned but not in enough detail. I did enjoy it and would definitely read the author again!

I have recently begun reviewing books for authors, blogs and even a promoter which has brought me so much happiness and into the world of indie writers! I can`t wait to share with you the books I have read - both indie and other published authors. Hopefully you are able to find some new authors that help you fall in love with reading over and over again.

If I could cook and bake all day I definitely would! I absolutely love spending time in the kitchen although I really wish I would have someone else clean up the mess! I am absolutely addicted to pinterest and use it all the time to find new recipes and try out as many as I can. I will share with you the recipes I love and hopefully you can find some for yourself!

I am very new to the blogging world so please stick with me as I navigate through this uncharted territory! I am definitely far from computer savvy so if you have any suggestions please feel free to pass them my way! I am more than happy to learn new things and see how to improve!

Have a great night!
