Birthday Cake Anyone?

Today is my older sisters birthday. I won't say how old she is, because then it would give people and idea of how old I am. My son and I are heading to store to get cake mix and frosting so he can whip her up a cake. Isn't he sweet?

We've spent the morning debating what kind of cake to make. Niece said to go with Red Velvet. Son was thinking German chocolate. Guess we'll make up his mind once we get to the store.

Just in case she sees this

Happy Birthday Jen!!!!!!!!

GOOD COP, BAD GIRL

Gotta love a guy who comes with his own handcuffs!

When a hunky cop shows up at Julie Hanson’s apartment to tell her the police received a complaint about the noise from her birthday party, she assumes he’s a male stripper her girlfriends hired. Upon discovering the gorgeous Kirk Chandler really is a police officer, she’s completely mortified, especially since she teased him about giving her a birthday spanking.

Kirk appears at her door for a second time later that night, bearing gifts and asking if she got her birthday spanking. Julie not only gets her bottom nicely warmed, but is treated to a night of pleasure that qualifies as the best birthday present any girl could ask for.

Those Pesky Commas

I'll admit one of my biggest grammer issues is commas. They really don't like me and the feeling is totally mutual.

I'm working on conquering this, so I've been doing some reading and listening. I think I have found the basic problem. Ready? Here goes.

Commas are used to seperate things, also inserted where a person would take a breath. The first I'm good with. The second is the issue.

I come from a big family of 7 kids and 2 parents. I'm the second oldest. In my childhood, and even now as an adult with all the nieces and nephews running around, if you wanted to be heard you talked loud and fast.

Now the loud feature I've gotten under control unless I'm angry. The speed talking however I still tend to do. So to those (many) who have said try reading it out loud and if you need to take a breath add a comma all I can say is:

'I don't need them and if I do there in the wrong place.'

Guess it's easy to say this pesky little punctuation mark and I aren't going to see eye to eye for a while.

A Shifter, A Vampire and A Demon walk into a bar…

Shifting Reality, Book 1

Thomas Lyons is your average cat shifter. Cool, seductive…and bored out of his mind. With the new popularity of all things paranormal, he doesn’t see why he should hide anymore. When his half-demon technophile roommate hooks him up with a computer, Thomas starts a blog announcing to the world who and what he is. Oddly enough, the more he shares, the less he’s believed. In fact, people begin thinking it’s a new online series with fantastic effects.

Margo Sheffield doesn’t dance on tables anymore, not since her reckless naïveté cost her so much. These days, her only guilty pleasures are dark chocolate, shoes—and a certain website with a man whose purring voice sends shivers down her spine. When the show, Shifting Reality, offers a week in a haunted Scottish castle with the stars, it seems a far-off dream. But when that dream becomes reality, her boss’s insistence that she mix business with pleasure—or else—is more like a nightmare.

Thomas’s focus on the show is blown by the luscious, camera-shy handful. And Margo can barely think about contracts when she’s surrounded by newlywed ghost hunters, a matchmaking demon and a man whose addictive touch makes her head spin. A showmance is the last thing she needs, but with a sexy cat like Thomas on the prowl…she just can’t resist.

Warning: Tons of explicit sex. A cat shifter with an oral fixation, voyeurism, anal sex, sex in pantries, with ghosts…you get the idea.

5 Delightful Divas and a Recommend Read

Just when I thought the Brazen Sisters series couldn’t get any better, Ms. Sawyer knocks my socks off. To Unleash a Brazen Desire is freaking fantastic. The family dynamics between the sisters is absolutely wonderful. I enjoyed the bantering not only between them, but also between Trent and Sam, as well as Jake and Bobbie and Trent and Victor. You can’t help but fall in love with these characters because they literally come to life on the page. ...

....In To Unleash a Brazen Desire, the words flow across the page; thereby, making it an easy read. The story line will captivate you and have you sitting on edge of your seat.

Check Out This New Release

Convicted of murder, Adam Butler spent two hellish years, being slaved out
to settlers for a few shillings a day, until he could buy his way to
freedom. After months at sea he’s finally on dry land – unknown and a pauper
– but free. When he saves an older, finely dressed Spanish gentleman he’s
offered employment as a handyman in repayment.

The daughter of a wealthy land owner, Evangelina La Reina Herrara Ortega has
been groomed from an early age to wed a man of her class and further her
father’s business dealings. Betrothed to Don Luis Santiago’s eldest son, she
journeys from her home in the small, wealthy city of Caceres to the Santiago
estate near Madrid to marry only to find a bone melting attraction to a man
forbidden to her.

The frosty Spanish beauty, sheltered all her life, is thrown together with
the tough Aussie ex-con by fate. Will these two be able to survive in the
wilds and build on the attraction they share?
