Book Review - What to Do with a Duke - Sally Mackenzie

22891422
Title:  What to Do with a Duke

Author:  Sally MacKenzie

Review:  A historical romance that is set in Lovers Bridge. The spinster house has become vacant and it is required that the Duke of Hart choose the next occupant and this must be done in a timely manner. Therein lies the problem as there are three young ladies who desire to have the occupancy of the house. One of the three, Isabelle Catherine Hutting is determined to have the house and to remain a spinster. The two unmovable forces face off and sparks fly.

A delightful tale skillfully told by a master craftsman.

I gave it a five star rating and would read other offerings by this author.

I received this ARC from Netgalley for my unbiased review.

Thanks Frank for your review

Synopsis:  Welcome to the charming, fatefully named village of Loves Bridge, where a woman destined for spinsterhood can live a life of her own choosing—or fall unexpectedly, madly in love…

Miss Isabelle Catherine Hutting would rather be lounging in the library than circling the ballroom in search of a husband any day. So when Cat hears that the town’s infamous Spinster House is open for a new resident, she jumps at the chance to put all this marriage business behind her. But first she must make arrangements with her prospective landlord, Marcus, the Duke of Hart—the most handsome man she’s ever seen, and the only man who’s ever impressed her in the least…

With her wit, independent spirit, and not least of all her beauty, Marcus can’t help but be stirred by Cat. It’s terribly unfortunate he’s not looking to marry, given the centuries-old curse that left his family with the Spinster House to begin with. No duke shall live to see his heir’s birth. But is there a chance the curse could be broken—in true fairy-tale fashion—by an act of true love? The race to Happily Ever After is about to begin....

Paperback, 352 pages
Expected publication: August 25th 2015 by Zebra
Sally MacKenzie
Author Information:   Sally MacKenzie decided to become a writer in grade school when she read one of her stories to the class. Her classmates laughed and she was hooked. She sat down immediately to pen her first novel.

Well, not exactly.

The hooked part is right--cursed might be a better description--but the sitting down and writing part came later. Much later. 

Sally eventually went on to college, majoring in English, and, upon graduation, did what many English majors do--she went to law school. But she still couldn’t shake her dream of writing fiction. Midway through law school, she faced the fact that she really did not want to be a lawyer. She took a permanent leave of absence, came home to the Washington, D.C. area, and sat down to type her first novel.

Well, not exactly.

She did come home and write, but mostly she wrote regulations for the United States government’s school nutrition programs. (Ketchup as a vegetable, anyone?) When her law school sweetheart graduated, he moved to D.C. and they got married. A couple years later, the first of their four sons was born, and Sally “retired” to manage their family. She wrote a story or two and some picture book texts, all now stored away in a filing cabinet, but she spent most of her energies on baby tending which rapidly evolved into carpool driving. She became an extremely skilled scheduler, getting all four boys to soccer, basketball, baseball, track, swimming, piano, scouts, and birthday parties without ever losing one. (Okay, she did lose the youngest for a few minutes, but she found him before he’d toddled into the parking lot.) And she did more writing--school newsletters, auction programs, class plays, swim league guidance, and the acclaimed annual MacKenzie family newsletter--but no fiction.

Finally, the boys started driving (Eek!) and leaving for college. The nest was emptying and she wasn't getting any younger. The time had come to chase the dream or let it go for good, so she sat down at the computer and wrote. And rewrote. And rewrote again until she had a polished manuscript. She joined the Romance Writers of America, and when the plea went out for Regency manuscripts for the 2004 Golden Heart contest, she sent in The Naked Duke. The stars aligned. She made the final round, and one of the judging editors liked the manuscript and offered to buy it.

Yee haw!!

When not writing or obsessing over the various mysteries of book promotion, Sally can be found at the gym working hard to age gracefully, at the pool on the SLOW side of the Masters swim practice, or at one meeting or another volunteering at the helm of the summer swim league. 


Here's Sally with her family--she's 5 ft. 8 in. tall, but she's short in this crowd.

Book Review - Noggin - John Corey Whaley -

18049084
Title:  Noggin

Author:  John Corey Whaley

Review:  We listened to this book on CD in the van as we drove out west for our family road trip this year - we ended up at a Dude Ranch for a family reunion - about a 20 hour drive so we listened to books along the way and this is the 1st one we listened too - 

Loved the idea of this book - the concept is great and it really does relate to my son at this point in his life - Travis, in the book, is frozen for 5 years and when he wakes up with a different body he feels like it is been no time at all - like he went to sleep and just woke up - well the rest of his world has been going on for the last 5 years and things have changed for them but not for Travis and he has a difficult time moving past that discrepancy in what he thinks and what they think.

My son spent 2 years in South America while all his friends from HS went to college and are now graduating and getting jobs - my son is 2 years behind them - of course he speaks Spanish like a native and had amazing experiences living on the economy and getting to know the people, but he still has 2 plus years of college to go before graduation and getting a "real" job and it has been a difficult transition for him.  He loved his time in Chile, but he also is not happy with being what he considers behind his peers in life - but is he really?  

Well in this book Travis lives in the past for quite awhile - he is still only 16 and everyone else has aged 5 years more - it is a hard thing for him to put together and especially with his girlfriend who is engaged - my sons HS love is also getting married and that is a tough one for him - but every choice has consequences even good choices and we can choose our choices but we cannot choose our consequences - bummer - Travis is learning this the hard way - 

The book was interesting but too long in places and I hated the ending - the family decided the book was a 3 star read and that a few changes could have made it more 5 star worthy.

Synopsis:  Listen — Travis Coates was alive once and then he wasn’t.

Now he’s alive again.

Simple as that.

The in between part is still a little fuzzy, but he can tell you that, at some point or another, his head got chopped off and shoved into a freezer in Denver, Colorado. Five years later, it was reattached to some other guy’s body, and well, here he is. Despite all logic, he’s still 16 and everything and everyone around him has changed. That includes his bedroom, his parents, his best friend, and his girlfriend. Or maybe she’s not his girlfriend anymore? That’s a bit fuzzy too.

Looks like if the new Travis and the old Travis are ever going to find a way to exist together, then there are going to be a few more scars.

Oh well, you only live twice.

Book Review - The Secrets of Sir Richard Kenworthy - Julia Quinn

22046656
Title:  The Secrets of Sir Richard Kenworthy 

Author:  Julia Quinn

Review:  I enjoy this authors writing and I enjoyed this book also - it seemed a bit slower to get going then some of her books I have read in the past - but the story got moving and the romance bloomed - I like the build up of Victorian Age romances since what was proper was so different then it is now -that a simple peck on the cheek was huge and a kiss would ruin a women - well this romance is slow to build as it should be - no Slam Bam Thank You Mam here - 

I did guess the secret which when told was almost laughable in today's society but a serious issue back then - I also  love the ways she writes about the big homes and the secret passages and gardens - it is like almost seeing them for myself -  the large 4 post beds and the fireplaces alight with flame-heat- and passion steaming up the windows - 

Iris is a sweet girl and Richard is a nice gentleman which leads to misunderstandings and hurt feelings since no one can ever say what they really are thinking or want in these books - but it all works itself out in the end.

I picked this book of the new releases at my local library.

Synopsis:  Sir Richard Kenworthy has less than a month to find a bride. He knows he can't be too picky, but when he sees Iris Smythe-Smith hiding behind her cello at her family's infamous musicale, he thinks he might have struck gold. She's the type of girl you don't notice until the second—or third—look, but there's something about her, something simmering under the surface, and he knows she's the one.

Iris Smythe–Smith is used to being underestimated. With her pale hair and quiet, sly wit she tends to blend into the background, and she likes it that way. So when Richard Kenworthy demands an introduction, she is suspicious. He flirts, he charms, he gives every impression of a man falling in love, but she can't quite believe it's all true. When his proposal of marriage turns into a compromising position that forces the issue, she can't help thinking that he's hiding something . . . even as her heart tells her to say yes.

Author Information:  #1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn loves to dispel the myth that smart women don't read (or write) romance, and in 2001 she did so in grand style, competing on the the game show The Weakest Link and walking away with the $79,000 jackpot. She displayed a decided lack of knowledge about baseball, country music, and plush toys, but she is proud to say that she aced all things British and literary, answered all of her history and geography questions correctly, and knew that there was a Da Vinci long before there was a code.

In 2010, Ms Quinn won her third RITA Award in four years and was the thirteenth author to be inducted into the Romance Writers of America Hall of Fame. Her books have been translated into twenty-eight languages, and she has been profiled in USA Today and TIME Magazine. Her twenty-third novel, The Sum of All Kisses, was released in late 2013.

from Armful Of Love

Review:  This car set cover is made of bamboo and is not lined like others I have seen and had - but this is also stretchy at the top to fit over the hood tightly and keep the wind off of your babies face - I hate when my babies get wind in their faces a gasp and then end up with ear infections -  Some will say that is not why they get ear infections, but that is the way it works with my babies - so better to be careful then sorry -

Also the bottom of the cover has double sided tape to stick to secure the cover the the base so it does not blow up when it is windy - this also covers the baby so that looky lous are not peering at your infant when you are shopping - or at the park or library - keep that baby covered to protect them from the sun and wind -

I included a photo so you can see that this is not a lined cover for colder climates but for warmer climates or summer - I received this item for an honest review -

Book Review - Speaking in Bones - Kathy Reichs

24338293
Title:  Speaking in Bones 


Rating:  4 stars out of 5 

Review:  Well I have read every book in this series and some of them I have enjoyed more then others - this one actually was quite good - I liked that Tempe was less supergirl like in this book then in the last few - also a large amount of dialogue was used to point out why she is such a supergirl at times in her books - I enjoyed that because I completely agreed with her and feel the same way - as a person we need to believe we can take care of ourselves and we do not want to think someone needs to come in and save us from ourselves and from others - 

Ryan was in this book and I love their relationship and the way they interact with each other - it is a real relationship that is not based on fake anything - it is a long time in coming and everyone - including you - have issues and need to realize that when you set out and start a relationship with another person who you would like to be perfect - but is not quite perfect enough you need to be OK with that since you are not perfect at all - 

Tempe's mother is in this book and you hear a bit from her sister - Katy is back in the service and out of county - we do not hear from Pete in this book and that is good I thing - we all need a break from Pete - A good mystery with loads of death and body pieces - new characters that you will like and life decisions that will change things in the future - 

A good read that took me 2 days of free time to get through - I didn't want to put it down and kept picking it up as I had time.

This series is recommended for mystery loves - 


Synopsis:  The latest blockbuster suspense novel in the pulse-pounding Temperance Brennan series, from #1 New York Times bestselling author and forensic anthropologist Kathy Reichs.

For every case Temperence Brennance has solved, there remain innumerable unidentified bodies in her lab. Information on some of these is available online, where amateur sleuths sometimes take a stab at solving cases. One day, Tempe gets a call from Hazel “Lucky” Strike, a web sleuth who believes she’s successfully connected a body in Tempe’s lab to a missing persons report on an eighteen-year-old named Cora Teague. Since the bones in her lab do seem to match Cora’s medical records, Tempe looks into the case, returning to the spot where the bones were originally found. What seems at first to be an isolated tragedy takes on a more sinister cast as Tempe uncovers two more sets of bones nearby. When she then learns that the area is known as a viewing point for a famous unexplained light phenomenon with significance for a local cult, Tempe’s suspicious turn to murder by ritual sacrifice—a theory thrown into question when Hazel herself turns up dead. Still reeling from her mother’s diagnosis and the shock of Andrew Ryan’s potentially life-change proposal, Tempe races to solve the murders before the body count climbs further.

Book Review - The Utopia Experiment - Robert Ludlum creator - and Kyle Mills author

18857471
Title:  Robert Ludlum's The Utopia Experiment

Author:  Kyle Mills

Review:
This was a great book, I am sure it has been reviewed many times but I would like to share my thoughts on it.

Robert Ludlum died a number of years ago so a group of authors have published under his name with their own names in smaller letters.  They all write the same type of book that Ludlum wrote, the same exciting unbelievable adventures as the Bourne series.

This particular series is called the Covert One novels.  The main character is Colonel Jon Smith MD who works for the military? as an immunologist, which is only a cover for his under cover work as an operative for an agency only the President knows about.  This agency was formed to have deep cover agents in all countries including our own to uncover espionage of every sort.

This particular book, "The Utopia Experiment" starts in Russia before the fall of the Soviet Union as a background story and goes then to the modern day.  The story is right out of the headlines of tomorrow, instead of using our phones, steel posts are put into the users skull that allows the user to see icons in front of his face and with a quick movement of his head can access any media he wants.  For those of us not able to accept having holes drilled into our heads there are also headsets that will do the same thing.  The software allows the user to see what the main frame knows about any given person (privacy rights are only briefly discussed) if they are a good person, in the softwares research the halo around the person will glow bright green if they are not it will go to a lighter green to a red for the really "bad" guy.

Driesner, the head of the company has offered exclusive rights to the United States Armed forces to warfare software, giving soldiers the ability to see combatants lit up even though they would normally not be able to see them, behind trees, in buildings.  Dr Jon Smith is sent to examine this technology and see if it is worth the billion dollar price tag.

The technology is just what the creator said it would be and Dr Jon Smith loves everything it can do. The only problem is "when something looks to good to be true" maybe it needs to be checked out a little further, enter Randi--with no trust of technology what so ever.....

Great story, exciting clear to the end!  I give this book four out of five stars only because near the end you have to wonder how the two heroes could possibly survive another "deadly attack" and live to tell the tale.

Thanks Eileen for this review.

Synopsis:  With U.S. intelligence agencies wracked by internal power struggles and paralyzed by bureaucracy, the president has been forced to establish his own clandestine group--Covert-One. It's activated only as a last resort, when the threat is on a global scale and time is running out.
THE UTOPIA EXPERIMENT

When Dresner Industries unveils the Merge, a device that is destined to revolutionize the world and make the personal computer and smartphone obsolete, Covert-One operative Colonel Jon Smith is assigned to assess its military potential. He discovers that enhanced vision, real-time battlefield displays, unbreakable security, and near-perfect marksmanship are only the beginning of a technology that will change the face of warfare forever--and one that must be kept out of the hands of America's enemies at all costs.

Meanwhile, in the mountains of Afghanistan, CIA operative Randi Russell encounters an entire village of murdered Afghans--all equipped with enhanced Merge technology that even the Agency didn't know existed. As Smith and Russell delve into the circumstances surrounding the Afghans' deaths, they're quickly blocked by someone who seems to have access to the highest levels of the military--a person that even the president knows nothing about.

Is the Merge really as secure as its creator claims? And what secrets about its development is the Pentagon so desperate to hide? Smith and Russell are determined to learn the truth. But they may pay for it with their lives . . .

Product Review - KUUK Popsicle



Product:

Review:  We love these - my kids love push pops and I hate buying them but we got these in the mail yesterday and took a Dannon yogurt drink and poured it into these 2 of them - and waited and book push pops - out of what we knew was a good item - also then my son used the other 2 and poured in a pink lemonade drink and a few hours later enjoyed a pink lemonade popsicle -

So easy to use and fun at the same time - my kids are thrilled that they can make their own frozen treats out of whatever they feel like at the time - these are soft silicone and have covers so they do not spills when placed in the freezer - these are the new favorite and they are now being fought over so I may need to buy another set so that we have more frozen treats at the sametime and less fighting over them -

Such a great idea and product - I would recommend these to anyone who enjoys frozen treats and you can control what you put in and freeze so healthy or now - it is up to you. I received these for an honest review - you get 4 I only took a photo of 2 since the other 2 where in the freezer already almost as soon as they opened the package - the whole family is in love with these little wonders -

Description:  Don't waste your money on pricy store-bought popsicles. These silicone ice pop molds are the perfect, easy way to stay cool this summer. Just add your favourite juice, yogurt, or fruit ingredients and pop them in the freezer. In just a little while, you'll have cool, delicious homemade ice pops!

No questionable ingredients
With these ice pop makers, you're in charge. That means you and your family won't get the artificial food dyes, flavours, and questionable ingredients you find in store-bought popsicles. Just add your favourite real fruit juice, fresh fruit, or whip up a delicious smoothie to freeze for later. You can also add your choice of healthy yogurt for a quick and tasty frozen yogurt treat. The only limit is your imagination, and since you control the ingredients, you can feel good about giving treats to your family every day of the week.

No drips, drops, or mess
Each mold has a tight fitting lid, so you don't have to worry about drips in the freezer. You can even lie them on their sides and no liquid will escape. This also makes them great for leftovers. Just pop the lid back on and put your ice pops back in the freezer. No drips, spills, or sticky mess.

Durable silicone materials
Made from durable 100% silicone, these ice pop makers are designed with safety in mind. There's no BPA and other chemicals found in plastic, and you'll note no aftertaste in the finished product. Silicone is also washable, dishwasher safe, and lasts for ages without breaking down.

Product Review - Rodent Repellent Mouse Control Deodorizer


by J.I's Mouse Deodorizer

Review:  Like the smell this gives the space you leave this little packet in and I like that it is not poison - we just came from an old farm house where there was mouse poison everywhere and I am glad the company made it taste bad because my 2 year old son thought it was nerds on the floor and tasted one and then spit it out bringing it to me and telling me Yuck!! --thank heaven it was Yuck!!! -

So this is safe compared to the poison and then with the poison you end up with dead rodents all over the place - when we moved into our house the basement had 20 or more dead mouse in the cupboards and small spaces - Yuck!!! for sure -

Natural alternative to poison - I received this item at a discount for an honest review -

Description:   RUN THE RODENT SMELL RIGHT OUT OF TOWN with this non-toxic, non poisonous, all natural, fresh scent mouse deodorizer. J.I's Mouse Deodorizer pouches not only deters mice smell, it also drives away any existing mice smells. Replace your bait station, blocks and trap kits with these smart paper pouches that pack a punch. They're easy to use, require no maintenance and work instantly. It's a safe and worry-free solution to your pest control smell problems at home and in large buildings...

ABSORBS BAD SMELLS AND LEAVES A FRESH SCENT - J.I's smells like a strong bar of Irish Spring soap. It's strong enough suck up mouse odor, but not pungent or overwhelming. It's pleasant. Plus, your nasty mouse nest fecal smell gets absorbed by it immediately. J.I's is the sweet smelling soap, and its granules absorb multiple odors, including urine, feces, dead animal smell, other odors organic to mice, and much much more...

LONG LASTING AND GUARANTEED! Mr. J.I. himself swears he's never had a customer complaint about his unique, decade's old blend of mouse de-odorizer, and we stand by him. If J.I's doesn't provide COMPLETE REMOVAL of your mouse smell problem in covered and enclosed areas, let us know and you'll receive a full and complete refund. As old farmers, it's our virtual handshake that you can trust with a North American-made product sold in the USA.

HUMANE AND HEALTHY PEST SMELL CONTROL, BETTER THAN POISON AND TRAPS, this unique blend of secret soap pellets and natural mineral concentrate means mice do not eat it. Remember, a lethal poison repellent leaves mice to die in nests in walls, insulation, inside cabinets and in dark corners. They rot and stink and it's the haunting smell you'll notice for the life of the building. J.I's makes these mice odors run out of the yard rather than leaving them to die... Poisons and rodenticide sprays are also deadly to your pet, guard dog or child. J.I's is a HUMAIN AND SAFE deterrent of smells. Mice don't eat it! And it's safe to touch and handle since it's made from non toxic earth products. You also don't have to spread it all over like granuals or deterrant gels that make a mess. The product never leaves its paper bag. It doesn't kill mice, so their carcasses aren't left rotting in hidden spaces... or out in plain site like sticky pads. (No animal suffering!)... Don't spend your days laying out, checking and "disposing" from snap and catch traps and glue boards. J.I's smell repeller is ZERO MAINTENANCE smell extermination during the life of the product. It's also more effective at mice smell control than finnicky electric and battery ultrasonic devices. AND, it absorbs lingering odours from leftover mouse nests, deodorizing them and leaving a crisp, clean smell...
ECONOMICAL AND EFFICIENT USE - Each individual pouch covers approximately 500 square feet of space. Poke holes in your packs, place them along your walls and walk away. That's it! Where other brands last only 1 month, J.I's smell eliminator continue to release over 182 days - that's 6 months of reusable value so you save more and don't waste time replacing bags and checking multiple traps that aren't effective at removing mice smell. Better than moth balls - multi packs work excellent in large and small warehouses, hotels, shops, machinery and garden sheds, garages, for a fresh tractor cab, trucks, RV campers and trailers, boats, cars, cottages and cabins, basements, storage bins and lockers, mobile homes and houses, and near seed plants, bags and indoor or outdoor use. No see, no view, no touch, no mess, like magic! Great for home defense against mice smells, even better for industrial and commercial application. Trusted across the continent, you too can be the victor over intruders smells - anywhere you want protection from mice smell is THEE spot for J.I's...
