Livin' La Vida Llama ~ A Lighthearted Look at Life Over 60
This is the first book I have read in the "His Highland Heart" series. Did it matter that it was book five? Not at all! This wonderful book stands alone well without the need to have read the first four. I loved Mariota and Stellan's story so much that I plan to read its predecessors... Continue Reading →
Ah, Dear Reader, I see that you are still here. You could say the same for me? Well, yes, you would be right. Once again, I am stepping out of a bout of brain fog. If you recall, I have been living with brain fog and fatigue for a few years...four of them, actually. But,... Continue Reading →
No, I'm not in New Jersey. Two of my dearest friends are here, and one of them sent me this link for discounts on the New Jersey Transit! So, if you happen to be planning a trip to New Jersey or maybe a stay in New Jersey so you can visit NY, tuck this information... Continue Reading →
Intelligently written and thoroughly engaging, Arise the Queen is the perfect ending to a beautifully crafted series. I have loved following Gwendolyn's story through every trial and challenge she's faced, every triumph, and every warm-hearted moment. I can still close my eyes and picture a myriad of people, places, and events. This well-crafted series introduces a powerful... Continue Reading →
You know those moments when you need to be whisked away to another world? House of Fire and Magic showed up when I needed it most, and oh, did it deliver! I was immediately caught up in this tale of Dragons, Unicorns, and many other creatures. Not one of them is stereotypical, so if you're... Continue Reading →
I'm hopeful, and I've started something new! I blame covid (long covid, to be exact, and no, I still will not capitalize it). And part of me happily blames my gynecologist. No, this has nothing to do with that! Don't lose focus before we've even started! Now, where was I? Ah yes... You see, in... Continue Reading →
I love the symbolism of this title, The Wedding Dress. Please don't ask me what it is; I'm not one for spoilers...but it follows the same idea as the first two books in this series, Picket Fence, and The Hope Chest. And while this is the third in a series, it stands beautifully on its own.... Continue Reading →
"Respectable lady scholars shouldn’t be dodging evildoers, escaping lost tombs, and chasing down magical artifacts." It was ten o'clock at night, and I was seventy percent of the way through Tomb of the Sun King. I knew better as I climbed into bed, my Kindle in hand. "Just one more chapter" turned into many different... Continue Reading →
I am convinced that The Willow and I are time travelers whenever we get together. Why, just recently, she and I ran away for a couple of days. This time, we visited the Gilded Age in Newport, Rhode Island. (For those who haven't read my other "Willow" post, she is my best friend and has... Continue Reading →
I don't like to read contemporary fiction, especially ones written as beautifully as this one. You know the ones: They tug at your heartstrings, pulling them like old-fashioned taffy you can watch from outside a store window. Then, just as you're sure those strings will snap apart, they start to warm and become stronger than... Continue Reading →
