My husband is at a seminar out of town this week, a rare event for him, and with my son still at summer school, I’m home alone this week. Oh my! What to do with this opportunity? In the past, I took time home alone to do something fun like rent a chick flick and splurge(…)
Goldie and Her Bears (Naughty Nursery Rhymes) by Dorris O’Connor * I received this ARC free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review* Take one very human girl. Add three bear shifters and one BDSM club. Shake well. What do you get? Lots of delicious fun. When Goldie Lockwood receives an explicit note,(…)
I wasn’t sure I would be able to post anything here today. My internet has been down for three days and I was beginning to despair that it would ever be fixed! But it got me thinking about The Internet and how dependent I have become on it. My husband’s grandmother was 98 when she(…)

This has been an interesting June so far. I knew it would be busy, it was the baby’s first birthday party, Father’s Day, kids are getting out of school and I have a deadline for the last manuscript in the Triune Stones series. So when I woke up on Saturday June 1st at about three(…)
This past Saturday, I had the privilege to be a guest author at the Heart of Dixie RWA Chapter Readers’ Luncheon, and what a thrill it was to be included in this wonderful affair! The HOD ladies (and even a couple of gents) certainly know how to throw an event! The luncheon, held at the(…)
Hi All! Cynthia D’Alba here. I’m thrilled to welcome Barb Meyers to our little corner of the internet. Barb’s post hit quite a few nails for me. Been there. Done that. I think we all have these trips we HAVE to do. But Barb’s telling is so touching. Thanks Barb for being so open and(…)
Our city doesn’t have a lot going for it. It is now ranked in the top 10 Worst Place to Live in America but it wasn’t always that way. Forty years ago when I was still a kid Modesto and the surrounding area was full of farms and dairies and small country towns where people(…)
