Biography

I was born and raised near Sacramento, CA. I have read since I was four years old and developed tastes that run the gamut of literature. I went away to college and have a degree in education, a certificate in family history research, and a certificate in social work. I worked for a non-profit agency with low income families for 20 years which included being responsible for the children’s library and promoting/teaching adult literacy. I have lived in Southeast Michigan for the last 18 years and I am currently a book addicted homemaker with a cat and husband who keep me grounded. Recently, I made it a challenge to review each book that I have read as a favor to author friends who said reviews are important. I have done reviews for Good Reads, Amazon, eBay, and Smashwords, but mostly at Goodreads and Amazon.

Review: Jack Absolute by C.C. Humphreys

Jack Absolute by C.C. Humphreys Genre: Historical Thriller Series: #1 Jack Absolute Historical adventures are some of my abso-fav stories to read so when I saw the blurb on this book, I just had to read it.  I love it when a character is put in tight spots and makes me wonder how they’re going to get out of them and I also enjoy a bit of romance and intrigue to make things interesting.  This book had all that and then some.  Its set during the early period of the American Colonial War for Independence and told from the perspective of a …

Yours Affectionately Review: Once by Dana Michelle Burnett

Once by Dana Michelle Burnett Genre: New Adult Paranormal Romance Series: #1 Gypsy Fairy Tale Just like the subtitle suggests, this is a fairy tale of sorts and it has the feel of one.  I love fairy tales so I was eager to give this story a try. A young woman, Harmony, lives in a small town in the Midwest where nothing exciting ever happens.  Now that her grandmother is gone, she is alone- alone with debts due to her grandmother’s illness and the not so thriving feed store they ran together, alone with her dreams of going off to college dashed …

Yours Affectionately YA Review: Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry

This entry is part 1 of 1 in the series Pushing the Limits

This entry is part 1 of 1 in the series Pushing the LimitsPushing the Limits by Katie McGarry Genre: YA Contemporary Romance Series: #1 Pushing the Limits So many people told me ‘You just have to read this one’, ‘its awesome’, etc and I did the ‘ya-ya, I will.  I’ve got it in my TBR pile’.  Well hel-lo, they were all right.  Truthfully, deep down I knew that it would be good and would grab my emotions, but that’s exactly why I shied away from this book.  And yes, I had to pull out my tissue a few times.  In the right …

Review: Acadian Waltz by Alexandrea Weis

Acadian Waltz by Alexandrea Weis Genre: Romantic Suspense When I read that this was a story set in New Orleans and the bayou, I was eager to read it since I’m always intrigued by reading about different regions of the United States.  I was not disappointed either because the author did a fantastic job of creating a place, characters and dialogue that made me feel like I was there.  There was even a bit of suspense thrown into this romance to make things even more interesting. The story is about a woman, Nora Kehoe, who has lost herself since her father’s …

Free Friday Book Review: Kamikaze by Moira Rogers

Kamikaze by Moira Rogers Genre: Paranormal Erotic Romance Series: #1 Last Call This short shifter erotic romance read packs quite a punch.  I loved how the authors were able to get me right into the story world and the character’s dilemma, and move things along to a desirable ending all within the few short pages of the book. Zoe is a young werewolf in heat and she’s put off dealing with it for too long so now must find a quick resolution to the problem.  Her plan brings her to the Last Call bar where she can order a specific drink that …

ARC Review & Giveaway: Kill Shot by Liliana Hart

Kill Shot by Liliana Hart Genre: Thriller Romance Series: #1 The Collective Intensity is shot through this whole book so that I never had time to draw a deep or relieved breath.  Whether it was the physical danger element or the painful and deeply emotional relationship, this one just didn’t let up.  I have never read this author before and now I want to smack myself with a ‘why ever not’ because this was an incredible bit of writing that lived up to and then some what is revealed in the blurb.  And yes, I used a boat-load of descriptive adjectives already …

Review: The Awakening: Aidan by Abby Niles

The Awakening: Aidan by Abby Niles Genre: Paranormal Romance   I read the blurb on this story and thought the background of the characters and the shifter world building made it sound interesting.  The heroine is a former therapist to shifters and left her position because she got burned out because in this shifter world building males can’t help the mating pull and females have a choice.  The thing that should have flagged me was that the blurb also said the heroine wanted nothing to do with mating for herself because she was afraid of she or her mate dealing with …
