Stranger

So I’m aware that I have completely fallen off the blogging map but I’m back for the time being seeing as how I actually have free time! My life has been totally crazy but I have managed to fit some books in…so lets get to it!

I just finished reading ‘And Then There Was You’ by Nora Roberts. The book consists of two different stories, each about home. The First is ‘Island of Flowers’ in which the main character, Laine Simmons, goes to Hawaii to find her father. However, when she finds him she also meets her father’s business partner, Dillon O’Brian. Despite being incredibly handsome, Dillon keeps a close and suspicious eye on Laine, and sometimes she doesn’t mind at all…

The second story, ‘Less of a Stranger’ is about Megan Miller and her grandfather, who is the only family she has left. The two of them own and run Joyland Amusement Park but when the gorgeous David Katcherton strolls in and try’s to not only to buy Joyland but win Megans heart…well things get a little complicated.

I personally was more of a fan of ‘Less of a Stranger’ but both were a great and easy read!



Currently I’m reading ‘You Slay Me’ by Katie MacAlister. I just started it today but I’m really enjoying it! Description via Katie MacAlister’s web site: The first book in a sexy, humorous paranormal thriller series featuring Aisling Grey, an apprentice Guardian, and her sometimes boyfriend, sometimes foe Drake Vireo, wyvern (leader) of one of the four dragon septs. Aisling finds her true calling when she travels to Paris to deliver a medieval object that is part of a set sought after for the power it wields. There she meets the handsome Drake, a man who is not at all what he seems. Implicated in the circumstances of two murders, Aisling, the demon she summons for help (and subsequently can’t get rid of) named Jim, and Drake find themselves caught up in a web of lies and confusion that could well result in the demon lords of hell ruling the mortal world.




Up next for me to read is ‘Stray’ by Rachel Vincent. Description via Rachel Vincent’s web site: I look like an all-American grad student. But I am a werecat, a shape-shifter, and I live in two worlds. Despite reservations from my family and my Pride, I escaped the pressure to continue my species and carved out a normal life for myself. Until the night a Stray attacked. This brush with danger was all my Pride needed to summon me back... for my own protection. Yeah, right. But I'm no meek kitty. I'll take on whatever and whoever--I have to in order to find my friends. Watch out, Strays--'cause I got claws, and I'm not afraid to use them...

Quote of the Day:
“Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over.” ~ Gloria Naylor
