“Blue Lake”   (Time After Time)  by Carol Ann Kauffman – #TimeTravel, #Romance, #BookReview

Blurb
When widowed Nicole decided to step back into life in beautiful Albuquerque, New Mexico with Richard, a young, handsome British actor who professed his undying love and devotion to her on a daily basis, she mistook his boundless enthusiasm for her as little more than youthful impetuousness. She had no idea where their relationship would take her physically or emotionally. She would find herself in many dazzling international locations, putting her own life on hold, simply to be with him. She had no concept how strong her commitment to him would grow and to what extent she would go to protect him and ensure his safety and well-being. And she certainly had no idea the depth of his devotion to her, an unlikely but undeniable love that would span continents and a decade of their lives, entwining them closer and closer, while his career, their families, and other relationships pulled them farther and farther apart. BLUE LAKE is a story of the power of love.
The series, TIME AFTER TIME, follows a pair of quintessential lovers, Richard and Nicole, through their lives together, in different places, in different times, with different names and faces and sometimes even on other planets. This follows the alternative theory that the relationships we forge in this lifetime, both the good and the bad, are continued into the future, and are rooted deeply in our past. Whatever we do, whoever we love, and the good and evil deeds we do today follow us into the future. Unsettled issues will present themselves again and again until they are ultimately resolved. Those people who have had a profound effect on us in this lifetime will find us again in the future. And although everything changes, love remains.
Books in the TIME AFTER TIME series are BLUE LAKE, BELTERRA,
The BASLICATO, BENTLEY SQUARE, WAITING FOR RICHARD, and LORD OF BLAKELEY. They do not need to be read in order.
5-star review

I thoroughly enjoyed this read and am looking forward to reading more in this series!
The bond between Nicole and Richard is instantaneous. One look into each other’s eyes and both knew it. Well, Jack knew it anyway. Nicole thought she knew him from somewhere but was a lot leerier. There was some kind of bond which could not be denied nor could it be broken! No matter what, if something happened to Jack–Nicole would go to him and was able to save his life more then once. But people and their insecurities kept tearing them apart as well-no I won’t tell you–but it happens consistently. Until they can resolve the differences and the problems-and there are many–they stay apart but together.

I thoroughly enjoyed this read and am looking forward to reading more in this series.

This is a story of a young girl forced to live the club life by threats and violence. How she survived the man that gave her no choice but to endure. Follow along to see how she got out and took them for a ride. Sit back, get comfortable and let three women tell you a tale of courage, determination and a little humor of the life of “Momma.” How she became the owner of a Motorcycle Club.
5-star review
Great new concept in an MC book!
By Jo Powers
Loved having such a strong woman as the leader of the MC. Elizabeth is strong and feminine and a great role model for her two girls.
This book has humor and a bit of snarkiness and some really hot guys, who I hope to see more of in later books.
This definitely isn’t a regular MC book, and I am happy to see that. I liked this new style of the book.

 WHY AUTHORS LOVE THEM!

Roadmaps of the Mind by [Mayo, Will]

Will Mayo

Crystal can I reiterate that you are the most adorable, loving, patient sensible publisher or editor an author could ever have?

​

December 18, 2017

Neal Sayatovich: I just want to tell you how thankful I am for you and Southern Owl. You have been incredible to me and I appreciate every thing you have done for me.

Rusty's Chronicles by [Loren, Victoria H.]Testimonial from Author Victoria H. Loren…June 22, 2017

Sometimes acceptance (in giving up wanting anything more that what is humanly possible) is the best policy. We want our best foot forward and that is all we can ask for. What we all are doing is amazing given our resources. Especially you and your team as a independent publisher. We are not set up with elaborate programs or huge print presses. Yet, the final product can compete and that speaks volumes.

I didn’t expect to actually like a “psychic” mystery with talking animals as characters

June 24, 2017

Format: Kindle Edition
So, I agreed to review this book based on the fact that it’s a teen book and I’m a middle school assistant principal. It’s important to me that I can share books with our students. I didn’t expect to actually like a “psychic” mystery with talking animals as characters. It’s a good thing I didn’t have my expectations set to like this book because turns out I LOVED it!!!!

If you’ve checked out many of my reviews, you’ll know I don’t say that I love many books.

This book has stuck with me since the first reading. The characters are real. I know people just like them. My students will be able to identify with them and their feelings. They are flawed. They are funny. They are realistic.
