Dear Dylan by Siobhan Curham

Dear Georgie,

I was online checking out botox injections (it really comes to something when you’re considering paralysing your forehead in order to look more youthful!) when your message just pinged into my inbox. How exciting!! The heavens really do seem to be smiling upon you and I’m so pleased, darling because it’s no more than you deserve.


*Check out my review HERE.

Blood Engine (Blood Engine #1) by T. A. Pratt

Anthology: Heart of Darkness
by Gena Showalter, Maggie Shayne and Susan Krinard


The Darkest Angel by Gena Showalter

Lysander hated lies. So, according to him, she would never be good enough for him. Which meant he was stupid, and she didn’t date stupid men. Plus, he didn’t deserve her. He deserved to rot in his unhappiness. And that’s what he’d be without her. Unhappy. Or so she hoped.




I never read any of her Lords of Underworld Series but I enjoy reading the anthology. What's your Friday 56?

Happy Weekend Everybody!

Mansfield Park by Jane Austen

"My dear Miss Price," said Miss Crawford, as soon as she was at all within hearing, "I am come to make my own apologies for keeping you waiting; but I have nothing in the world to say for myself—I knew it was very late, and that I was behaving extremely ill; and therefore, if you please, you must forgive me. Selfishness must always be forgiven, you know, because there is no hope of a cure."

Happy Friday Everybody!

Boys That Bite by Mari Mancusi

"Urn ..." I shuffle from foot to foot. Should I sit down? There's no extra chair.

"Sit," Magnus suddenly instructs, almost as if he's read my mind.

OMG, he can't do that, can he? That would royally suck. Especially since I was just thinking about how sexy he is in that outfit.



Happy Friday Everybody!

Strange Angels by Lili St. Crow.

I don't know how I'm going to get my mind off zombies, kid. But it was something to do. I could't just sit here until the mall closed. I'd explode. Or start crying. Or something else guaranteed to draw attention to myself.

David Copperfield by Charles Dickens

"Yes, and again, as we walk home, I note some neighbours looking at my mother and at me, and whispering.

Again, as the three go on arm-in-arm, and I linger behind alone, I follow some of those looks, and wonder if my mother's step be really not so light as I have seen it, and if the gaiety of her beauty be really almost worried away.

Again, I wonder whether any of the neighbours call to mind, as I do, how we used to walk home together, she and I; and I wonder stupidly about that, all the dreary dismal day."

The Ravenscar Dynasty by Barbara Taylor Bradford.

The following day, Lily had asked herself why she had become so quickly entranced by this young man, one who is obviously so much younger than she. And she had known the answer immediately.

Overwhelming sexual desire

Shooting Stars by Virginia Andrews

"Good." She closed her eyes. And then she opened them abruptly. " I want your father to get one of those baby monitors...you know, where you can hear if the baby cries? Of course, I'll have her sleep right beside us when we take her home, but even after she's out of danger, older, I want to have that. Too many babies die of crib death or choke on something. When you are that small and fragile... it's just good idea, isn't it?".


"Yes," I said.

Every Breath You Take by Judith McNaught

Their
shadow fell across Kate just as she realized how they were likely to "take care of" a large, destructive, unconscious animal that was annoying nuisance to adult hotel guests and a terrifying threat in the minds of some of their children. "What do you intend to do?" she asked stubbornly.
