She placed prejudices under her feet and learned to recognize and accept love even if it was against the law ~ Cross-Ties by Carolyn Bowen

Cross Ties Carolyn Bowen.jpg

Leah was a rebel. She chose to live her life outside the constraints of 19th century English society. She rebuked any parental control and choose to decide her own fate. From England to the Caribbean and then frontier America, she was loved by family and friends yet still had enemies. Sailing the seas with pirates lurking about helped chisel her character as she created a life of her own near the sea.

Explore the scenic countries with Leah and learn of the native cultures and taste their delicacies. As a mixed race female, she placed prejudices under her feet and learned to recognize and accept love even if it was against the law.

Pain is his drug of choice, a vice he can’t survive without. Pain by Amanda Mackey

Pain Amanda Mackey cover

Life is sweet in The Sanctuary—until Lillian Harris is thrown the curveball of her life. Lillian is perfectly happy cocooned within the lofty perimeter fence of The Sanctuary. Her Sanctuary—a vast oasis for rescued lions, tigers, and elephants. The animals are her world. So when Lillian’s dad tells her a nineteen-year-old criminal who’s fresh out of prison is coming to The Sanctuary as part of a rehabilitation program, Lillian is more than a little apprehensive. She interacts with animals more than humans—and definitely not criminals. Justice Armstrong is more arrogant than a Silverback, but something darker lurks behind his eyes…

It isn’t until Justice swaggers toward her from the parole officer’s car—pierced, confident, and more than a little hot—Lillian knows she has her work cut out for her. His stare has the power to rob her of all thoughts. His words, although crude and nefarious, bring a part of her to life she never knew existed. How is this criminal suddenly turning her world upside down? He has the power to drag her to the dark side….

“Standing on His Own” (New Beginnings Book 2) by Trish Edmisten – #Romance, #NewAdult&College, #Military

When his best friend decided to join the Army after high school graduation, there was no question Joel would join too. Best friends since kindergarten, the two of them did everything together, and this was no different. A routine mission changed their lives forever. Slade ended up paralyzed while Joel lost his leg. Joel never expected to live with one leg, but he wasn’t going to let it break him. Like he did with everything else, he adapted, and he accepted that he was never going to find love. Women might want to sleep with a war hero, but they sure as hell don’t want to live with and take care of one. That theory proves true until Courtney comes along. Beautiful, independent Courtney with her wicked sense of humor is the perfect woman for Joel. All he has to do is trust her enough to accept that he doesn’t have to stand on his own anymore.

His perfect match

In this second book of the New Beginnings, all the characters from the first book are back, and we get to see more of Joel and his best friend, Slade. Both of them have suffered both physically and emotionally after their time in the army, and they are trying their best to cope. This story centers around Joel and the girl he meets, Courtney. Their first couple of encounters don’t go well, but still, there is something between them, and Joel is determined to pursue a relationship with Courtney. This book delves into PTSD (which both Joel and Slade suffer from) and the difficulties living with it.

Short, but worth the read
The worst part of this book? It is too short. Just as we have been getting things developed in the characters, the locations, the relationships, the author cuts off the story. Much like a Saturday Matinee… See you next week!! Uggg…
The story is basic Zombie Outbreak with introductions to the main characters, the history of the area and what is happening now. Add a few standard plot devices and viola, instant story. Now, this isn’t to say it’s like all the others, there is enough to make it fresh and worth the time to read. I am sure to pick up any and all books in the series as they become published.
All in all, a great ride, not too much gore, a touch of romance here and there, oh, and Zombies.

A lot was revealed when The Harvey-Reed-Cannon family first sat down with therapist Victoria Fields…

During that session, Monica Sumner-Harvey revealed to her husband, Tom, that she was an FBI agent; a fact that a few family members already knew. After reading the books containing the stories of how other family members survived several past events in their lives, Monica decides to tell everything in her own book, surprising Dr. Fields.
Dr. Fields and her husband, Tim, tirelessly worked with the family for months and finally feels they all function well as a family again, so she prepares for the final family session but with the new book of Monica’s, that may change.
Dr. Fields leads what everyone believes is the last session, and Monica’s book is shared. The contents shock everyone to tears, turmoil and fresh pain.
Is this really the last session or will this healthy-again family suffer a setback of epic proportion?

WAS I SURPRISED

I am a historical researcher and never ever read Romance or Science Fiction for pleasure – never that is until I downloaded the book thinking it was just another Western.

It turned out to be both. It’s well written with many twists and turns, factual time period descriptions, and a most enjoyable storyline. I’ll be purchasing the books remaining in the Wilderness Series.

A terrific bedtime story that hopefully won’t keep you up all night.
Well written, with a captivating portrait of a town founder who still seems to be very much alive.

KEEPING THE UPPER PAW THE CATS GUIDE TO TRAINING YOUR HUMAN, PATRICIA MORAN AND MARTA MORAN BISHOP

These felines have it going on. Join these cats as they expound wisdom of how to keep their humans on the right path. From cat boxes to playtime the house cats cover mostly everything, but I can see a sequel in the future with new tricks and tips to keep us humans in line. My cat JJ took note and will probably use some of these methods on her human dad and me. It was well written with a sense of humor and from the cat’s point of view. A recommended read for all cats and humans alike. I give it 5 paws for an entertaining read.
