Guest Post: Five Contrary Heroines I Adore by Therese Beharrie
I started writing ONE DAY TO FALL because I wanted to write a heroine who didn’t conform. Not to society, which doesn’t favour women, or to her family, who favours society’s expectations of women. We tend to call these heroines unlikeable, but I like the idea of them being grumpy. They’re too busy fighting the patriarchy to smile, thank you very much. I like the idea of them being contrary even more. Even to the expectations of the reader… I think these heroines should be celebrated, so here Continue Reading
Sexcerpt- Playing House by Ruby Lang
Ruby Lang's new release, Play House releases tomorrow, August 12. Here's a sexcerpt to hold you over until then. “Are you sure about this?” “Yes. I know my own mind.” He gave a short laugh. “I don’t know my own half the time.” That caught her up short. “But do you want this, too?” “Yes.” It was the truth.

Top Ten August 12
10 . No top ten from me would be complete without a picture of Kitty Scarlett 9. Beverly Hills 90210- It’s back. I was a devout 90210 fan. I loved Dylan from the beginning. I used to record the episodes on VHS and watch them again and again. I have mixed feelings about it being back without Luke Perry, but I watched anyway. Who watched? What did you think? 8. Three words- Bachelor In Paradise? Is anyone else watching this? I wanted to and then realized it is on two nights a week for two Continue Reading
RWA Wrap Up and Giveaway
I have been an active member of Romance Twitter for at least five years and reviewing for about three years. Going to the RWA conference has been a dream for a while. It was absolutely a dream come true. To be surrounded by so many romance people just felt so affirming. I arrived on Thursday. Thursday, Friday and Saturday were packed with bookish things and romance people. Seriously it was kind of amazing. Every single person I met was absolutely amazing. Although a lot of people were also Continue Reading

Hi friends! I has been a long time since I wrote any sort of review. But July was a busy month for me. Almost everyone in my family has a July birthday. My son moved out of his apartment and back home! And I had to get ready for RWA. (Which was an amazing experience from which I am still recovering) Amidst all that I managed to read a few books. Two I want to highlight here are The McAvoy Sisters Book of Secrets by Molly Fader and One Last Chance by Molly O’Keefe. Molly Fader is a pen name of Continue Reading
