5 Random Favorite Beauty Items

My friend Karen has a fun blog, FriendsFavz, where she and her sister talk about their favorite things. Last week, we attended a charity event together that raised money for Hurricane Sandy relief.

In the spirit of sharing, here are some of my favorite random beauty items that would make perfect stocking st...

My Thanksgiving Prep

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the US and today, I’m going to be cooking and baking.

I just bought The Dahlia Bakery Cookbook: Sweetness in Seattle by Tom Douglas. If you’ve read Bonded By Blood, you know I’m a huge fan of his. And the tagline on his new cookbook is very apropos given that I write the Sweetblood series, which is set in Seattle. In fact, I had a fangirl, deja vu moment when I noticed that.

When I made his recipe for Serious Biscuits, I loved them so much that I’m making them...

How to Read an E-book If You Don’t Have an E-reader

If you’re reading this blog from your computer, you have everything you need to read an ebook. If you’re reading this from your smartphone, it’s practically a no-brai...

Interesting factoids:

1. Rickert wears a leather kilt.

2. Neyla’s cap...

"I have truly loved each book." Books N Kisses





Deep within the forests of the Pacific Northwest, the battle for supremacy rages on between two vampire coalitions:Guardian enforcers sworn to protect humanity, and Darkbloods, rogues who kill like their ancient ancestors…

Hot-blooded and hard-edged, Tristan Santiago has an uncanny ability to see beneath the surface—a skill that serves him well as the Guardians' region commander.

Roxy had put love before duty once before, with devastating results. But to root out a dangerous traitor in their midst, she must put her faith in Santiago, the one man skilled enough to break through her defenses.
