The Bastard by Inez Kelley (The Baddest Boys in History #1) Released: May 18, 2014 Paranormal Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I realized when I started reading this, how much I am craving a fun, new paranormal world.

This book has the premise of the Creator of All waging war on the evil. Angels Continue Reading

Find Your Joy
Yesterday I was in the car and the morning radio show I listen to was talking about Sandra Bullock giving a graduation speech at some college. They were going through the advice she was giving to the graduates, and the last quote they mentioned really struck me - "Go find your joy." Growing up, 'Joy' was one of my mom's favorite words so it has always held a special place in my heart. But as I was driving and daydreaming (how I have not wrecked my car while daydreaming yet baffles me) I started Continue Reading
