Book Review: Dirty by Megan Hart (Dan and Elle, #1)
Title: Dirty (Dan and Elle, #1)
Author: Megan Hart
Publisher: Spice
Publication Date: March 1, 2007
My rating: 4 stars out of 5
From Goodreads:
This is what happened... I met him at the candy store.
He turned and smiled at me and I was surprised enough to smile back. This was not a children's candy store, mind you--this was the kind of place you went to buy expensive imported chocolate truffles for your boss's wife because you felt guilty for having sex with him when you were both at a con...

A New Round And New Goals (Sorta): ROW80, Round 2
Before delineating my goals I need to do a quick recap of my plan for 2013. When I posted my goals in January for Round 1 I set about making a year long plan and then broke down my goals from there for Round 1, and then ever further into weekly goals. I plan on doing this same thing as I start Round 2: evaluating my 2013 plan, seeing what I've done and what still needs to be accomplished, and then outlining my goals from there into Round specific goals and then weekly goals....

Book Review: Alexandra's Legacy by N.J. Walters (Legacy, #1)
Title: Alexandra's Legacy (Legacy, #1)
Author: N.J. Walters
Publisher: Samhain Publishing
Publication Date: Oct. 13, 2009
4 out of 5 stars
Wowza. This is the first in a shifter series that has a lot of potential. The story was strong and except for a few issues here and there, I really liked the world that the author has introduced.
From Goodreads:
The truth will set her free...or get her killed.
Alexandra Riley's day starts out like any other in her normal, predictable world....

Book Review: Extreme Exposure by Pamela Clare
Title: Extreme Exposure (I-Team #1)
Author: Pamela Clare
Publisher: Berkley
Publication Date: August 2, 2005
My rating: 5 out of 5 stars
This book had been on my TBR pile for a really long time. I kept putting it off though, grabbing something else to read instead. Well, after hitting a dry spell where every book I read was getting on my nerves (yes, this happens to even a book addict like me), I decided to hit the romantic suspense route. I snapped up...

Book Review: On The Plus Side by Tabatha Vargo
Title: On The Plus Side (Chubby Girls Chronicles #1)
Author: Tabatha Vargo
Publication Date: January 21, 2013
My rating 4.5 out of 5 stars
This book. I cannot say enough about it. First, this is a book with a REAL girl in it. I am not talking a girl with just some T and A. No, she was a real girl with a real weight issue. I see a lot of books with heroines who have the former, but you don't get many who are a size 20. So I say good for the author, for portraying a woman who is...

Top Of The Mornin' To Ya!!
And Happy St. Patrick's Day!
I love this day for a few reasons, food, beer and my proud Irish heritage being just a few. But another reason that I love this day is that it usually precedes the coming of spring. I mean, it's the 17th of March so the snow has to stop eventually, right?! The good news is that today there is no snow. The bad news is that it's only 20 degrees. I am still going to hope that spring is just around the corner though. *hopes really really hard*
And while I keep on ho...

Book Review: Serendipity by Carly Phillips

Publication Date: September 6, 2011
My Rating: 5 out of 5
Ethan Barron! 'Nuff said.
Okay, not really enough said. But holy heck that man is awesome.
This was a classic story of privileged girl and bad boy but there's a twist. By the time we meet the two their roles have been reversed, sort of. Faith's father has gone to jail for a ponzi scheme of epic proportions and bad boy Etha...

Book Review: Tempted by Megan Hart
Title: Tempted
Author: Megan Hart
Publisher: Spice
Publication Date: December 19, 2007
My rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Megan Hart can write a freaking book. This book is a love story. But it is a love story involving three people and about different kinds of love. Even now I don't know what to think. The steam factor is high, and I will definitely be reading on in the series. Though I don't know if I can read book two, which is Alex's point of view for book one. I don't know if I can...

Shampoo, Rinse & Repeat: My Week In Review
This week was such a whirlwind but I somehow made time to read, do some book reviews and make progress on my ROW80 goals while also working, eating and sleeping (or trying to). I have no idea how I accomplished it all. I just kind of...did it. Hopefully this level of productivity carries over into this week cause I could seriously get used to this feeling.
Here's what happened on the blog this week:
Devoured by Emily Snow: This is a new adult book and when I...
