Go HERE to see much more), movie posters, and sites like US Magazine that has a ‘share’ button, I may use those images. So there will be Continue Reading
Guest Author J.C. Daniels
The book that ate my brain…and my new me Hi. I’m Shiloh Walker. I’m also J.C. Daniels. And I have a new book to tell you about…it’s a book that ate my brain. Literally. Well, not literally…then it would be a zombie book, not a smart-ass warrior woman book. But it felt like it consumed my brain.

Review: Deep Autumn Heat by Elisabeth Barrett
Deep Autumn Heat by Elisabeth Barrett (Star Harbor #1) Contemporary Romance July 9, 2012 Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi For the most part, I’ve had good luck with Loveswept releases. First, they have been at a great price point, $2.99 and I’ve enjoyed Jessica Scott’s Because of You and both of Ruthie Knox’s books. I believe Elisabeth Barrett is a debut author, and I’m always on the lookout for a good contemporary. This one has a good set-up for the series as a whole, but I Continue Reading
