Interview with Fallon Blake and Giveaway
Who is Fallon Blake - give us the low down. Honestly I’m a blue collar, Florida gal who loves to read, cook and play with my kids. Other than books, my weaknesses include: sci-fi, horror movies, coffee and dark chocolate. I’m kind of geeky, definitely smart-mouthed and on the introverted side -- that about sums it up. This Side of Heaven is your debut novel. What has your journey to being a published author been like? I’d always imagined myself becoming a writer. Life sort of got in the way Continue Reading
My Three Lives
I am addicted to Twitter. I am not ashamed to say that, even if my real life friends often make fun of me and say things like the only way they can carry on a conversation with me is through a tweet. Ha Ha friends – you are so funny. While thinking about Twitter, I have come to the conclusion, my life falls into three separate categories. First, my Real Life. This includes the hubs, and the kids, the pets, the household chores. I am fortunate enough to be a stay at home mom (insert whatever Continue Reading
January in Review
Books I read in January: Succubus Blues by Richelle Mead - 4/5 My first joint review and I had a good time discussing this with Fiction Vixen. Great book, still need to read the rest in the series. Afterlife by Naomi Clark – 2/5 This one didn’t quite work for me, but I am going to read Silver Kiss soon, which will revisit her werewolf world and I am looking forward to it. Sinful Surrender by Beverley Kendall - 4/5 A great historical romance debut – lots of intense, lustful romantic Continue Reading

Win your own demon sheep!
Mho Fho resides over at Katie's place, Babbling About Books and More. He loves a good book, he has had his picture taken with many fun people, and he shamelessly swings his woolly mammoths at me on Twitter all the time. Mho has been a part of Katie's blog for a year now, and to celebrate they are holding a really fun contest. In 100 words or less, write what you would do with your own demon sheep and what would his/her name be and win your very own demon sheep. I hear the the sheep also comes Continue Reading
Review: Bound to Shadows – Keri Arthur
Part vampire, part werewolf, Riley Jenson knows what can happen when vamps don’t play well with others. But she’s never seen anything like this: a series of brutal murders surrounding the latest hot spot for vampire-human hookups—and the victims aren’t just killed, they’re beheaded. Now Riley is launching into action, toying with a seductive—and highly suspicious—club owner, and finding herself in the middle of another mystery: women being killed one by one, without a trace of violence.For Continue Reading
I’m Guest Blogging at Pure Imagination

It has an all-star cast and uses an extraordinarily high budget and spectacular cinematic effects. (ok - so maybe not).Here is a sneak peek - Bella, Edward and Alice being confronted by the Continue Reading
