Beautiful story of life

February 24, 2017

Format: Paperback

I love this book. I am not typically satisfied with novellas, but this one was lovely. The words wrapped me in warmth and I felt as if I was there. It was more than a series of stories, but a homecoming. If you are looking for something to restore you, this is the book.

Some steamy passages in a very short book. Fun and entertaining

ByMarciaon June 29, 2018

Format: Kindle Edition|Verified Purchase

Marsha Casper Cook must have a bubbly and magnetic personality and that clearly shows in her book. Every Man Wants Her: a Virginia Templeton Story is a nice short story, absolutely steamy.
It’s a story about a woman who is used to have the world at her feet. Women want to be her and men want to be with her and Virginia knows it and takes pride in it. This is the first short story featuring this character and I’m sure the book is fun enough for the author to consider writing a novel about Virginia’s lifestyle and choices. It’s a light and easy reading, with steamy passages, that are great to read after a long, stressful day or on your daily commute. Characters are interesting, have…

An interesting mix of stories with lies, cheating, and deception. The standouts for my were, My Monster by Taylor Floyd and Bent Bottom’s by D.A. Roach. Both of their writing styles just drew me in and had a really interesting story.

LTK ARCH ROBINHOOD ADVENTUREA series that will probably appeal to you no matter how old you are

March 21, 2018

Format: Paperback|Verified Purchase
I was more than pleasantly surprised by how much I ended up loving this book. I don’t often read Middle Grade fantasy (or much Middle Grade at all, to be honest) so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. But I can confidently say that The Last Timekeepers is a series that will probably appeal to you no matter how old you are. It’s that perfect mix of real world humor and pure escapism into an alternate reality, plus there’s a good bit of historical fiction thrown in (which I always love).

The Last Timekeepers are made up of a fun cast of five kids and two adults who are thrown together due to circumstance and destiny. They are given the extremely important role of making sure that…
