What is your all-time favorite book?
By now you all know that I adore Tuesdays, it really is my favorite day of the week! Each Sunday afternoon, as I pre-load new releases to the website, I browse through the new titles, read the book descriptions and get so excited about what’s coming on Tuesday- it’s like whole new worlds of adventure await. I can’t wait each week to share these new adventures with all of you!
And while all those new stories are exciting, sometimes you come across an old favorite in the new releases list that just makes you smile. Maybe it’s updated with a new cover, a new introduction by the author or has a sneak peek of the author’s next book, but whatever has been added, the original story that first captured your heart doesn’t change at all.
Most of the time, when reading romance novels, we read most of the story from the heroine’s perspective. In Total Surrender started from our hero’s perspective and stayed with him for quite a while. It was a nice change for me and Andreas makes a great hero. He’s rough around the edges and hides his true self from others, but when reading the story from his perspective, we get unlimited access to the “real” Andreas, and he’s quite wonderful, in a bad boy sort of way.
Do you ever read romances where the heroine is described as smart or clever and then she proceeds to make the most ridiculous decisions which result in the need for rescuing? Phoebe isn’t like that at all. In fact, I do believe she is the one doing the rescuing in this romance.

Which books are you reading this week?
If dinner time is drama time at your house, you’re not alone.
All parents of young children can tell stories about the tears, the NOs!, the picked over plates, the refusals to sit down, the dropped food and turned over bowls … the list of potential eating problems in little ones goes on and on. And unfortunately, sometimes the best advice you will get is just “wait it out” – they are children, after all!
But it’s not just a matter of waiting until they’re teens and hoping they’ll outgrow it. Here are some concrete steps that you can take now, while your kids are in the early eating years, that will set them on the right path for healthy eating for years to come.
It’s time for another installment of Thriller Thursday!
This one was really exciting for me – No Rest For The Dead was written by twenty-six amazing mystery and thriller authors including Sandra Brown, RL Stine, Jeffery Deaver, Michael Palmer, Kathy Reichs and more. Twenty-Six! As excited as I was for what promised to be a great mystery, I was even more excited to see how all these author’s writing styles would blend together into one cohesive story. Would it be seamless or would it be disjointed? The only way to find out was to dive right in.
Who are your favorite mystery writers?
Over the next few weeks, there will be much written about the 10th Anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks. And those stories will affect all of us in different ways.
But for thousands of families, the hurt and the pain will be more deeply felt than anything we can imagine. Because someone they loved was killed in New York, Pennsylvania or Washington, D.C. For these families, it’s not the hurt of a nation pulled together by shared tragedy, it is much more personal.
