What I’m reading…
Both of these books are a part of series, and they are both auto-buys for me. These ladies are some very talented authors!
Here are the blurbs:
Ruthless Game (Game/Ghostwalker)~

The day in the life…
I’m not much of a gardener. All the flowers outside are wild and came with the house. Anything I’ve tried to plant,the dogger digs up, thinking it’s a game. I stopped weeding my rose bush a few weeks ago when it stopped blooming. If you look to the left, you will see that the dog took up my slack. Mmmmm, grass.
I asked my sister to come over to help re-pot my in-door plants (yes, I have that many). We looked over the rose bush, which was very yellow-ish-brown from either too much rain or too m...

What I’m reading…
I’m looking for a little humor this week. I’ve had luck with The Pride Series last time, so I put up the second book. Also, added to the mix is a series I’ve been wanting to read since it was first released close to five years ago. Jeeze, am I behind. Sigh.
Here are the blurbs:
The Beast In Him~
Some things are so worth waiting for. Like the moment when Jessica Ward “accidentally” bumps into Bobby Ray Smith and shows him just how far she’s come since high school. Back then, Jess’ gangly limbs an...

So how big is too big?
In the last few days, three people havesuggested that our dog is going to fat. Okay, they flat out said he was huge.
No one likes to believe that their baby is fat, but I’ve come to realize that the dog might be a wee-bit heavy.
He’s a three year old black lab and the same weight as me. Now, I just have to figure out how to put the dog on a diet. Maybe we’ll both have to start exercising more frequently instead. I might have a pound or two that I could spare toloose.
The good news…I bought a new...

What I’m reading…
I try to match the books up a little each week to give them both a fair chance at being read. This is going to be another hard week for me to chose. I’ve read the first book in both of these series and loved them. They are both unique. They are both gritty writers. They are both urban fantasy, which I adore.
Here are the blurbs:
Grave Dance~
Whoever said dead men tell no tales obviously never met Alex Craft.

Review: If Angels Burn by Lynn Viehl
I had a hard time deciding between the two books this week.
It finally came down to reading the first few pages of each book to see which one grabbed me more. I really liked them both, but I was in the mood for something a little different than what I was writing. That meant no shifters. So I chose…
