Frantic Friday

Not much is going on execept seeing my sisters this weekend for a baby blessing and spending time with family.

Reading and Reviewing books -- The mail man was very good to me this week. I already got May books thanks to Little, Brown and I got this other book called Brains-- zombie book, and some giveaways coming up..

Yeah I'm finally up to 100 followers...Maybe I should do another Contest ???

Don't forget I still have the Swanky Paper contest still going til March 8th..I only have 4 entries ...so go enter my friends.

I've finally did more than 10 books over @Blog with a Bite -- Thanks to them I've made some great online friends and been introduced to some new authors..I've even had an author Chloe Neill ( Firespell) leave a comment to me about her book because I found the lack of parents to be a distrubing trend in Young Adult Novels.

I had to add more Gerard Butler ....His next movie is coming out soon :)

Heart of Stone-- Book Review


Laura Foster , Free from the bondage of an unspeakable childhood, has struggled to make a new life for herself. Now the owner of an elegant boardinghouse in Glory, Texas, she is known as a wealthy , respectable  widow. But laura never forgets that she is always just one step ahead of her past.

When Reverend Brand McCormick comes calling , Laura does all that she can to discourage him as a suitor. She knows that if her past were discovered, Brand's reputation would be ruined. But it's not only Laura's past that threatens to bring Brand down--its his own. ( Back of the book)

This is my first time reading this author and this book comes out in March 2010.


Laura- used to live in New Orleans ,used to be a  lady of the night in 1853
Brand- preacher


Laura now owns a B & B in Texas. She is searching for her sisters and not looking for a romance at all. She is doesn't like talking about her past at all. Brand has lost a wife and has 2 kids.

This book talks about Love, Redemption, forgiveness, prayer, choices , and anger.

This book is good enough to pass along to friends . I do think the 2nd novel with about Laura other sisters and what has happened to them and their stories since this is a Irish Angel Series. I think that this is a good series for christian readers of stories of hope. I do want to see what has happened with the sisters.
