Suddenly Royal by Nichole Chase This reminded me a lot of The Princess Diaries (Meg Cabot). But Samantha isn't a geeky awkward high schooler. She's a graduate student who is helping take care of her ailing father and working towards being a Wildlife Biologist. One day some Lilarian royalty comes to campus, Sam tries her best to ignore them, even if the prince is pretty cute, thinking they are only there to donate to the school. At least until she gets a personal dinner invite from the Duchess via one of her bodyguards. It's at that dinner her world is turned upside down. She is told that she herself is a Duchess of Lilaria, and the Queen wants her to return and reclaim her title and her families lands. One more person pushing her to go is Prince Alex, or as her best friend calls him, "Prince Yummy". He tells...

Chapter 01 I can stare at this same scene for the rest of my life. My husband of not even a full twenty four hours only dressed in a pair of basketball shorts and a tank. His caramel glistening skin being enhanced by the stream of sunlight flooding in through the open terrace doors. He sits with legs crossed, a cup of coffee in one hand and another novel in the other. My waking eyes prompt the ever so smile on my face. Trying to move as little as possible, I twist a bit to allow for an even better view. But my seeming minimal adjustment catches the attention of "my man" and with an ever so large smile makes his way to me. Good morning Mrs. Walker, my wife how did you sleep? The best rest I ever experienced I can't contain the extra-large smile emerging on my face...

It is the middle of summer in L.A., the weather has been scorching hot, and Anna, the heroine of He Watches Me, doesn’t dare run the air conditioning. Blaine’s pool is gorgeously cool and it isn’t being used. This temptation is difficult for Anna to resist. *** I impulsively grab the towel I had left drying on the deck railing and meander across the modern-art-littered lawn toward the wrought-iron gate, unconsciously moving closer to the property I’ve sworn never to trespass onto again. The soothing sound of falling water calls to me. I gaze between the ornately crafted bars separating me from nirvana, the gate locked. Water cascades down rock into a naturally shaped pool, the feature blending into the purposefully wild backyard. Only the pool is lit. The two-story house, its design as classic as the Leighs’ is contemporary, and is shrouded, as always, in darkness. I’m not surprised....

You may be saying, what is she babbling about now It’s simple really. What voice would you put with your main character if you had the chance? Well, I had to figure that out this week and let me tell you, it was a blast! What I’m talking about is audio books. An author recently mentioned I ought to try it out, so I did. I went to ACX.com and set up an account. It’s really easy and may I say extremely fun and exasperating too. After you give them your general information, then the fun starts. You have to put your book information in and an excerpt that you want someone to read for an audition. Yep, you heard me right, an audition. You actually have people sending you auditions on the account. But the fun starts when you have to put in the settings you want. Here are...
