HAPPY MONDAY & HAPPY LABOR DAY!! It’s time for today’s early birds and then for me to start tomorrow’s BIG NEW RELEASE LIST!! 😀 But first…
Three things:
1.) I found this gorgeous coastal “sand dollar” decoration at a flea market this weekend (it’s actually pretty big and hand carved wood). AND I got quite the deal on it. I LOVE IT! Just trying to find the perfect spot for it…
2.) Football season is back, so we decided to get cable again. There’s just too much sports love here to continue messing around with who’s showing what (and my husband missed out entirely on hockey last season which he LOVES). Plus we love Discovery and the History channel and I love HGTV and Lifetime, so… *sigh* for now, we have un-cut the cable. LOL!
3.) On my shopping day, I also got some cute summery pants and dress shirts & blouses. Just something a little dressier than my normal shorts and t-shirts but less “going out on the town” than what I normally wore when I was going out. Yep, it was time for new clothes. LOL! I was kind of… “mid style” from all of my cutesy mini skirts and frilly things (or my sleek ALL BLACK wardrobe that I still love), but felt like I want something more… light and airy.
Okay now… time for BOOKS THAT JUST WENT LIVE!!!

Bad Reputation
ONE OF SEPTEMBER’S AMAZON FIRST READS!! THEY HAVE PLANS TO FIX THEIR IMAGES…
“…Cole James’s reputation as Hollywood’s favorite himbo no longer suits him. His fans can’t separate the real man from the character he played on a soapy teen drama decades ago. But that’s going to change with Waverley, the hit streaming historical romance series.
Maggie Niven hates her own notoriety. Fired for directing a divisive play, Maggie takes her fight against censorship public. When Hollywood comes calling, she becomes the new intimacy coordinator for Waverley. But it’s harder than she imagined to focus on the job. Cole isn’t what she expected—and Maggie is more than he dreamed of...”

Playing With Danger (Hollow Point Book 2) by Riley Edwards <— LIVE!! HOT COP & SHE RAN INTO HIM 3 TIMES “…Valentine Malone fell into my life…correction, I fell into his in the aisle of a grocery store. I fell, not in love, but literally into him right before I stumbled into a display rack of parmesan cheese. Our second run-in had me on the floor slipping and sliding in broken party tubs of margarita mix. And if the first two encounters weren’t embarrassing enough, the third left nothing to the imagination when I walked in on Hot Cop in all his magnificent glory in the shower. Not exactly the meet cute I’d always dreamed of. Three chance meetings was all it took for my perfectly uninteresting life to take a turn…”

Ginger has handed the reins to a crackpot motivational speaker, Bob Durand, and his scheming wife, Elaine. The couple’s plan to rebrand the camp as a “rehab” for anxious adults has nearly bankrupted the McCarthys. And now the Durands have skipped town days before investors arrive for a fundraising gala that could determine the camp’s future. As Cat and Ginger wrangle a cast of lovable misfits and underdogs to save the camp, the sisters rediscover the importance of family, belonging, and holding fast to sweet summer memories…”

He might miss making music, but he had good reasons for walking. Give him solitude over thousands of screaming fans any day of the week. These days, the only company he’s truly interested in is that of the vet who works closely with his dog rescue—Dr. Laney Lawson. She’s brilliant, funny, beautiful, and best of all, she has no idea he used to be a pop star…”

I should be focusing on my recovery, but with the Hawkeyes putting her up in my apartment building, I can’t stop thinking about the gorgeous PT sleeping across the hall from me. Just as I start to believe we might have a shot at something real, Keely tells me we can’t date—it would be inappropriate since I’m her patient. But something about the way she says it has me thinking it’s more than just professional ethics. That’s when I meet Jack–the captain of the city league soccer team that she just joined and the guy who can’t take his eyes off of her…”

Luckily, Esme was born ready and I’m a fast learner. Of course, that’s when the dead bodies start piling up…”
