The night was stormy. Lightning streaked across the sky in jagged spears. Nicole lay in her bed hoping that this onslaught would soon be over. She was twenty-five years old and still didn’t like storms. The only comfort was the knowledge that her friend in the shadows was watching over her. She knew he was there, even though she couldn’t see him, in fact, she’d never really seen his face. She just knew he was somewhere near.
I’ve been looking forward to Saturday since last Saturday Saturday morning is house cleaning time at me house. I do laundry while mopping, vacuuming, scrubbing bathrooms and straightening our week long mess. But Saturday is also a time for writing. As a writer you try to find time to write. Sometimes when you work a full time job and have other obligations and passions, it’s hard to find enough time to put words in your laptop. Well, I love to write on Saturday. After the house is clean and everyone is ready for a nap, I’m ready to write. Today is no exception. I always start with checking my book sites and social sites. That way I’ve got everything behind me as I start work. As I sit in my swing on the front porch, a light breeze blows across lifting my spirits. It’s not too warm yet here in...

Happy long weekend! Need something to take to the beach or read in the park? Well, today only, Along Came a Duke is an Amazon Daily Deal. You can download it for only $.99! Click here to check it out! In Along Came a Duke, Aunt Allegra A lesson Tabitha Timmons, a penniless spinster, has never needed to heed. That is, until she is left a vast fortune payable only upon her marriage to the very respectable Mr. Barkworth—a match that offers little chance of discovering exactly what her aunt means by "untoward attentions." But the same can't be said when the Duke of Preston happens along Tabitha's path. He spies a rebellious streak in her that matches his own and he makes it his mission to save her from such a passionless match, interfering in her life at every turn. All too soon, Preston—whose very name spells ruin—has Tabitha...
I’m like a ghost. I drift aimlessly through the Leigh’s empty Beverly Hills mansion, my bare feet slapping against the painted gray concrete floor, shoes not allowed in the sprawling modern bungalow. I’m not dead. I move the oversized, never-been-opened book staged on the chrome coffee table an inch to the right. I’m breathing. I flick one light on and turn another light off, maintaining the minimum required amount of illumination. I have a physical form. I rearrange some of the catalogues, creating the illusion that they have been recently placed on the modern glass table, all of the stores featured priced out of a new graduate’s budget. But I’m not living, not truly, and no one sees me … which is how I like it. *** As Anna shares in this scene from He Watches Me, she views herself as being invisible and she likes it that way.

Any Duchess Will Do by Tessa Dare (Spindle Cove #4) May 28, 2013 Historical Romance Avon Reviewed by May Another girl’s prince had arrived. That was Pauline’s first thought, when she stumbled in and spied the finely dressed man silhouetted in the door. She watched it happen every few months in this village. These young ladies sought refuge in Spindle Cove for the oddest of reasons. Their harp-playing lacked grace, perhaps, or the color of their eyes was unfashionable at Court this season. And then – to the utter astonishment of everyone except Pauline – some handsome earl or viscount or officer came along and married them. I’m a fan of Tessa Dare’s Spindle Cove series, and I am sorry to say this is the final book in the series. That said, it’s one heck of a story and to best explain, I’m going to turn it over to Griff and...
