I have been thinking about the Mob and Gangsters lately because I’m trying to figure out the plot of my next book in the contemporary series. Tony Accardo is a complicated guy and purported to be the Godfather of Chicago. I grew up on the Northwest Side of Chicago where the Italian mafia was notorious. Not for the fedora’s and the machine guns of the 1920’s but the drugs and explosions of the... read more »

Binding Arbitration, A Chick Lit/Contemporary Romance Novel by Elizabeth Marx
" I'll start by saying I did like this book. Loved the flirtation and banter between Libby & Aiden. And Cass...well, he stole my heart.

BUT, I feel like this book tried to do TOO much. Too many sub-stories that took away from the best part of the... "

" When I started this book, I didn't think I was going to like it. The first chapter just didn't draw me in, and for a second I found it a little hard to follow. I think the pixies dancing around and the umpire talking in Aiden's head had me a littl... "

Theoretically speaking, anybody in possession of a pen and paper can write, but just because you put ink on a page doesn't mean you are a writer. I didn't know what to expect when I started this book, but I took a chance and all I co... "
