Book Review-Deviant Acts-J.J. White

Tuesday, April 26, 2016


Did you ever buy or receive a book and just mean to glance at it only to find that you were reading it front to back non stop? That is what happened to me with this book. I really just meant to read a page or two then pick it up in a week or two as I had no idea what it would be about--uh--it caught me from the get go. Jackson Hurst, a loser by most peoples definition of that term is really not doing well--his Mom has just about given up on him--when he is called upon by his aunt, who has no respect for him or anyone else for that matter because she deems him the only one who can help find and retrieve her kidnapped daughter--and then wreak revenge on the kidnappers. She sets him up as a private investigator and the craziness begins!

I don't want to say much more or I will spoil it for you--all I will say is the FBI gets involved and a BIG secret is revealed--I did love the ending and I think you will too!

About the Book; (from Amazon)

Jackson Hurst lives his nightmares with his eyes open. Only the heroin he’s been addicted to since Vietnam keeps the horror at bay. A poster child for losers, Jackson’s addiction has cost him his job, his girlfriend—and unless there’s a change soon—his life. That change comes in the form of the wicked Aunt Camille, a Vermont millionaire who desperately needs Jackson’s services to retrieve her twenty-year-old daughter, Cheryl, from kidnappers. Camille wants her back at any cost and she wants the kidnappers, who maimed her only daughter, murdered. Jackson could use the money—no, he desperately needs the money—but can he stay clean long enough to get her back? And more importantly, can he kill again despite the demons that haunt him from the war?

$50 Amazon/PP-WW-Loving Emmi-(Dog-Ma) (Volume 2) by Barbara Boswell Brunner-Ends 5/15

Monday, April 25, 2016


This is a heartwarming tale of the resilience of a dog to overcome multiple disabilities and the efforts of the owners and their internet friends to pay for multiple operations. That this dog led a relatively long and happy life is due to veterinary science and the love of his owners--they would not give up! I have to put this here--you see I love ALL animals and there is one sentence in this story which totally upset me--when you read this book which I think you should--I am pretty sure you will figure out what it was (and still is).



And the Dog-Ma saga continues...

In this highly anticipated sequel to the best-selling Dog-Ma, The Zen of Slobber, Izzy, the feisty and ferocious terrier, has lost her eyesight. Following on the heels of this devastating loss, her arch-rival Morgan - a gentle giant of a Rottweiler - suddenly succumbs to cancer. Finding herself a lonely-only, it's not long before Izzy finds herself nose-to-nose with her humans' new pet project: a foster Rottie pup also named Morgan. Quickly renamed Emmi to avoid confusion (and the wrath of Izzy,) it was to be the beginning of a journey unlike any other.

Severely injured as a newborn, Emmi—affectionately known to her fast-growing online fan base as Baby Morgan the Broken Jaw Puppy—is hanging onto life by a thread. Living with a crushed jaw that has left her unable to open her mouth to eat or drink, the prognosis is grim. Baby Morgan is starving to death. Having rescued her from a horrific life, her parents spring into all-out desperation mode to find her the best lifesaving medical care. Despite the advice of veterinary professionals to euthanize, her parents are determined to save her at all costs. Taking to the Internet, they rally a huge online community of dog lovers who quickly become their second family. It does not take long for Emmi's sheer determination and ferocious will to live to take hold.

This is Emmi's miracle. A story of hope, inspiration and triumph in the face of adversity.

“This book is a must read for animal lovers, everywhere. Barbara Boswell Brunner pulls at your heartstrings in Loving Emmi, a rescue story like no other. When Barbara, and her husband, Ray, decide it's time to foster another dog, they have no idea what they're getting into. This is their story, but it's also the story of every "imperfect" shelter dog; a story that promises to open eyes and hearts. A fantastic read. Two paws, way, way up.”

- Author Nick Antinozzi – Desperate Times Trilogy 

 “A captivating and heartwarming story that illustrates the deep and trusting bond that exists between dogs and humans, written with true understanding, compassion, and love. A must-read gem of a book.”
Author Kathryne Arnold – The Resurrection of Hannah

Also Available....

Dog-Ma: the Zen of Slobber (Dog-Ma Book 1)



Barbara's vivid and dramatic stories, told with a wicked sense of humor, will make you laugh out loud. She definitely gets what living with rescued dogs (nine of them!) is all about. 

When Barbara meets her future husband, Ray, it is love-and dog-at first sight. Over the course of thirty-two years, seventeen relocations and nine dogs, their mutual love of dogs guides them on their unconventional path. The love that Barbara and Ray get in return is literally lifesaving, with one dog attacking a lethal intruder and another discovering Barbara’s cancer. Her own survival story underscores the story of how her dogs become survivors themselves. 

Each new dog adds its own dynamic to the family, sometimes upending it. From Turbo (whose Spock-like ears may have provided super powers), Barbara learns about the will to live; Lexington demonstrates incredible patience and an inexplicable love of golf; Madison teaches that laughter is truly the best medicine and that the whole “nine lives thing” is not reserved just for cats; Morgan should be sainted for tolerating Izzy, who is as cute as she is bad. Barbara is certain that somewhere in doggie heaven there is a poster that says “If you are sick, injured or in need of really expensive medical care, FIND THESE HUMANS!”

E-Book-Healed by Love-2-WW-Rev of River of Love-Melissa Foster-Ends 6/1

Friday, April 22, 2016


It's rare that a happily ever after will end with me in happy tears--this book was one of them--as I sit here blotting my eyes with a big smile on my face. Faith and Sam were meant for each other--even if it took a bit to figure it all out. Faith had been badly hurt by an ex boyfriend and she was gun shy to say the least. Sam, who had a reputation deserved or undeserved had some heart break in his life as well. But he would move heaven and earth for Faith to get her to see who he really was beneath that devil may care reputation he had acquired over the years. And he helped a lot of other people as well!

There is almost no way any true romantic will not love this story-------




New Release........

Book #3 The Bradens of Peaceful Harbor

Fall in love with Sam Braden in the Bradens of Peaceful Harbor. Hot, sexy, & wickedly naughty second cousins to the Weston, Colorado Bradens we know and love.

River rafting and adventure company owner Sam Braden works hard and plays harder. He’s fast, focused, and determined—and never at a loss for a willing woman to share his time with. The trouble is, the only woman he wants refuses him at every turn.

Physician assistant Faith Hayes escaped her painful past and built a safe, happy life in Peaceful Harbor. She’s also put what she’s learned to good use helping others by founding Women Against Cheaters, an online support group. When her boss’s sinfully sexy brother sets his sights on sweet Faith, she knows the self-professed player is everything she shouldn’t want, and she’s determined to resist him.

Sam pulls out all the stops, proving to Faith that his past doesn’t have to define his future. As she lets down her guard and begins to trust Sam, intense conversations turn to intimate pleasures. But when real life steps in and their pasts collide, it’s Faith who’s left with something to prove.

RIVER OF LOVE is part of the Love in Bloom series. While this can be read as a stand-alone novel, for even more reading enjoyment you may want to read the entire Love in Bloom series in series order.

Annalise "Leesa" Avalon never realized that one sentence could change her life until one of her students revealed his crush--and within twenty-four hours she finds herself under fire. After a grueling investigation that turns her life upside down, she steals away to Peaceful Harbor, Maryland, with a new identity to try to pull herself back together and figure out her next step.

From the outside, Cole Braden lives a charmed life. He's a top orthopedic surgeon with a thriving practice, strong family ties, and friends he adores. But there's a lonely spot inside Cole that no one can see. He has an enormous heart--and a painful past--but the desire to love and be loved is too strong to ignore.

A chance encounter brings Leesa and Cole together, and the attraction is immediate and intense. But a relationship is the last thing Leesa needs--and the only thing Cole wants. Long talks, heated moments, and deep connections are hard to resist, but the harder Cole tries, the more Leesa pulls away. Cole might truly be the right man for Leesa, but is Leesa the right woman for him?

Book Review-Indiana Belle-American Journey Time-Travel #3-John A. Heldt

Wednesday, April 20, 2016



I absolutely love time travel books and having read and reviewed both the first and second in this series when asked--I knew I had to read this third installment. Although there is some continuity--it can definitely be read as a stand alone as all the books in this series can. If you missed them you can read my review of September Skys here and Mercer Street here

Now one of the tenets of time travel is--you should never change what is supposed to happen because you will be changing the future as well. Hum, but what happens if you fall in love and the woman is going to be killed on a certain date in a most atrocious manner? Do you allow history to replay as it is supposed to or do you attempt to change it and then attempt to change what that would have changed? Meanwhile you have been charged with finding the cave where the key to time travel is to be found and bring back a bunch of the crystals.

The Roaring Twenties is brought to life, both the good and the bad in this very fast reading novel set in Indiana. Yes, it is one of those novels that I started and finished in less then one day--I could not stop reading. There are a couple of sections that I advise having some tissues handy--especially towards the end. I truly hope you will read this book--I give it 5 stars and if I could I would give it even more!!

About the Book: (from Amazon)

Providence, Rhode Island, 2017. When doctoral student Cameron Coelho, 28, opens a package from Indiana, he finds more than private papers that will help him with his dissertation. He finds a photograph of a beautiful society editor murdered in 1925 and clues to a century-old mystery. Within days, he meets Geoffrey Bell, the "time-travel professor," and begins an unlikely journey through the Roaring Twenties. Filled with history, romance, and intrigue, INDIANA BELLE follows a lonely soul on the adventure of a lifetime as he searches for love and answers in the age of Prohibition, flappers, and jazz.

Guest Post-“Why Do You Write?”-John Beyer

Tuesday, April 19, 2016



When a person learns I am a professional writer the question which seems to be asked is “Why do you write?”Often I sit back before answering and query myself that very same thing. I write because I must write. Memories flood into my being about writing since growing up in Southern California and the very first short story – ‘Prisoner in the Sands’ – about a downed fighter pilot in the Sahara Desert during World War II. For some reason I ran across that story a few months back and though it was the musing of a young boy of nine it brought a smile. Even then I knew stories were to be told and perhaps even read by others.

Life is short but can be extended with a good book on a carefree weekend – to read is to travel, to explore, to fall in love, to experience every human emotion possible and thus it takes writers to allow us readers to feel such. I am proud that I can perhaps share what I can with the written word weaving a story or a tale here and there. To allow readers a chance to escape reality with a short story or a short chapter or two from one of my novels in the evening after a hard day dealing with the everyday hustle and bustle of life.

Sometimes escape is bliss – especially with good reading material in the hands with the understanding that it is only a story and reality is just around the next bend in the road. I write because I love to write and the characters and places invented by me tend to remind me of how fortunate I am to be able to put down on paper what is rapidly taking place within my brain. The added benefit is someone else may enjoy the piece too.

About the Author: (from the publicist)

John Beyer has been writing most of his life. He’s traveled to at least 23 countries (and was actually shot in the head in Spain in 2000 during a march between Neo Nazis and Communists two days after running with the bulls in Pamplona). He was caught in a
hurricane off the coast of east Baja (Bahia de los Angeles) while kayaking and lived to tell about it. Essentially, it’s hard to tell where experience leaves off and fiction takes over. You’ll want to read his books.

About the book (from Amazon)

Russia had learned the hard way the extremes these fanatics would go to…

Ten years ago, Captain Yuri Shakirov stood in horror as young children were butchered by a hail of bullets from a group of Islamic extremists. As blood spattered the walls of this small Beslan school, Yuri's greatest fear was that this tragedy would someday be repeated.

Now America would encounter these same crazed murderers…

All the terrorists needed was a place where they could descend, like the cowards they were, and strike terror into the heart of every American. An average middle school in California seemed the perfect soft target. The terrorists saw it and pounced. And Yuri was once again thrust into the line of fire.

It would take strong determination and courage to stop what had happened in Russia from happening here. The Americans need his help, but can Yuri find the strength to go through this nightmare again?

It’s filled with soft, firm foam that’s rigid enough to color or snack on, but collapses safely on impact. The 2″ rim keeps crayons contained. With waist strap, two toy pouches, and two cup holder pockets.


$19.95 rv
