Christmas Dismisses.

So this year has definitely been a little different around our usually festive home. I have always loved to decorate the house for Christmas and courageously bring on the holiday season with love and joy. This year has hit me like a total brick to the face.  Now that we have transitioned into parents of teenagers, it seems as if EVERYTHING has changed. These young adults that I am living with aren’t the little cherubs that I once knew them to be. Excitement, enthusiasm, and participation have all packed their bags and left the building leaving me with a useless bunch of Bah Humbugs. Seriously, it’s like no one in this house cares this year, and unfortunately it has completely rubbed off on me and left me unusually quiet sitting in this seasonal slump…

5 Star Review for Unseen Messages by Pepper Winters!

Unseen Messages Cover

This is my first read by Pepper Winters, and based on this book I am definitely a fan now! Although I have heard that many of her books are quite dark, I found this to be so refreshing and definitely unique. It took me on such an insightful journey and was beautifully composed of such an inspiring story of strength and the will to survive, passion, love, and acceptance.

Although almost against her will, Estelle Evermore has become an overnight success with her beautiful singing voice and lyrics from her heart to match. She is a tired and antisocial ‘homebody’, and desperate to get back to the comfort of her home and her cat.  Galloway Oak is a gorgeous man with a beautiful name, but more than that, he is desperately trying to be a better person.  He has a past full of wrong, and his new job awaiting him will provide an opportunity to redeem himself in his father’s eyes and a fresh start to his future.  They cross each other’s’ paths at the airport, and although Estelle comes across many possible signs she should avoid this flight, just like Galloway, they each have their reasons why they need to be on this plane. Little did they both know that the journey in which they were going to embark on together would change their views on what they considered to be home, their future, and their lives forever.

Review ‘Burn Down the Night’ by Molly O’Keefe!

Burn Down the Night Cover

‘Burn Down the Night’ is the third book in Molly O’Keefe’s Everything I Left Unsaid Series. The books are dark romance with very intriguing stories with lots of mystery, suspense, and steamy romance. O’Keefe can write one heck of a uniquely twisted story, and she is very talented in taking very unlikable characters and opening up your heart to them.

In the first two books of the series, ‘Everything I Left Unsaid’ and ‘The Truth About Him’, we are introduced to Dylan and Annie’s story. While they definitely have their issues, they were both very redeemable characters and their story was very intriguing and suspenseful. ‘Burn Down the Night’ is Max (Dylan’s brother) and Joan’s story where they are brought together to try and save Joan’s sister.

Abyss

So do you ever sit and wonder what the hell your problem is?

You have so many thoughts and ideas just swirling around in your head.  You’re tired of the mundane – driving the shuttle of life to and fro, and living every second by a clock and a calendar, and waking up every day to a never ending checklist. You’re completely exhausted, yet somehow you’re so stir crazy that you are aimlessly pacing the floors in need of an outlet.   You just want to BE. And THINK. And CREATE.

So why don’t you?  Continue reading →
