Hollywood Nobody by Lisa Samson


Hollywood NobodyHollywood Nobody by Lisa Samson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I actually liked this book when I gave it a chance. Although it starts off as a blog post which through me off. In the end it was a good read. Scotty is girl who lives in a RV with her mother, she  does not go to school she just goes from movie set to movie set.  Charley is her mother a real gypsy who works as a movie food stylist.


With all of that being said, nobody is really who you think they are not even Scotty and she doesn't  know it at first. She just knows that her mother is hiding something

A Brisket, A Casket by Delia Rosen


A Brisket, a Casket (A Deadly Deli Mystery, #1)A Brisket, a Casket by Delia Rosen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Honestly I found this book to be funny, aside from the murders and the mishaps that keep happening to her and that the prime suspect has a crush on the heroine.

Steppin' Into the Good Life by Tia Mccollors


Steppin' Into the Good LifeSteppin' Into the Good Life by Tia McCollors
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book really made me think about the choices we make in our lives.  Shelia was so sure that she had everything she wanted but she did not know what GOD wanted for her. When she started to walk in her faith so many doors opened up for her. I read every word of this book. I would caution you to read the first book if you want the whole background on Shelia.

The Mummy Case (Jim Knighthorse, #2) by JR RAIN


The Mummy Case (Jim Knighthorse, #2)The Mummy Case by J.R. Rain
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Jim is back and he is back and is he hired to find out what happens to a fresh out of college historian. Along the way he solves a very old crime and digs up more evidence in the murder of his mother from his childhood. He still hasn't made peace with his father or his football career.

Read it you will not be disappointed. However, there is some graphic scenes in his stories so don't say I did not warn you.

This is the first in the Jim Knighthorse Series. Jim is a PI and a ex college football star. One play took him out of the game but is his career in football over? Jim has a past that not many can overcome. He started his own agency even though his father owns one of the biggest PI firms in LA. Jim has women issues, daddy issues and an ego bigger than LA County. But he also has a big heart and a knack for helping the little guy and making bad guys disappear.

Hail Mary (Jim Knighthorse Series #3)Hail Mary by J.R. Rain
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have become a die-hard JR Rain fan. Jim knighthorse is bigger than a horse, arrogant and a darn good detective. He has been hired to find out what really happened to a shark activist. Along the way he must continue tracking the man who killed his mother when he was ten years old. Although Jim often works with the police he does not always walk within the law.

Chief Cook and Bottle Washer by Rita Hestand

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really did enjoy this book. I think the title sucks but I read it anyway and was pleasantly surprised at how well written the story is. I did not find it predictable and what girl does not love a cowboy, who loves his family and his land in that order. When Sammie Jo called him daddy for the first time I could not help but smile. I am considering reading the remaining stories in the Travers Brothers series.

The Heat of Heat by Bettye Griffin


The Heat of HeatThe Heat of Heat by Bettye Griffin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am giving this 4 stars because it was too much going on. It would have been easier if Yolanda and Carlos were their own story because it was just alot.  Chantal and Sinclair do not seem like the kind of women that Hatdh would have raised. Chantal was just too silly for me. She was getting mad at the man for reasons that were out of his control. She was just a tad bit too immature for me. Seriously.


Sinclair I liked although I wish she had more backbone.

I am going to say I liked the book but this was not my favorite by Ms. Griffin so I will wait and see what is next.

Faith (Brides of the West #1) by Lori Copeland


Faith (Brides of the West #1) (HeartQuest)Faith (Brides of the West #1) by Lori Copeland
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. Faith and sisters decide to become mail order brides to secure their futures. Faith arrives in Deliverance, TX and there is drama from the very start. The stage breaks an axle and she arrives to meet her rich husband and the rest of the town dirty and hot.


I am going to read the three other stories in the series because I really enjoyed this book. This is a  historical romance with Christian undertones so there is no steaminess and that is okay because it is not needed.

Exception to the Rules by Stephanie Morris


Exception to the Rules [Interracial Romance]Exception to the Rules [Interracial Romance] by Stephanie Morris
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. I loved the chemistry between the characters.  My only beef with the book is the same I have had with her others. There are typographical errors in the book. for instance that there is a sentenced where it should read "she stared at him" but instead of stared the book has "started" drives me crazy. Otherwise good story
