Family Day

Sunday in the Sawyer house is for family. It's the day I usually sit down go over what did and didn't get accomplished during the past week, and make my plans for the next week. My family tells each other their plans. Sunday night is TV night for me and my daughter.

This Sunday was a little different. Why? It's my Mommy's birthday. I won't say how old she is, just that she doesn't look her age. The kids and I have been tossing out ideas about what to get her all week with nobody agreeing on anything. Hubby and I went out this morning to find something, but had no luck. It's not that we couldn't find anything she would like. I was just hoping something would just jump out say "I'm the perfect gift". No such luck. Anyway we're having a big family cookout at my sister's house tomorrow and we ran around today getting last minute stuff togther for that.

It's after mid-night and I finally just sat down and went over the weeks to do list. It looooong, and it basically needs to get done in 3 days. Why? Because my daughter and I will be leaving Thursday for our trip to the Lori Foster Reader Get Together Ohio. So I have list of things to get done along with packing. I'm a lister and usually have everything done with days to spare. I'm feeling way behind right now. But at the same time I'm really excited to see some familiar faces and meet some fabulous authors.

My New Release

The Millionaire's Fake Fiancée

 available from

Pink Petal Books

           Harley Taizer wasn’t used to dealing with her greedy parents. They’d never wanted her and had made it perfectly clear by giving her to her grandfather the day she'd been born. It’s funny how things change when money is involved. Discovering her trust fund, her parents show up demanding she give them the money. Afraid of just how far his son and daughter in-law will go, her grandfather brings in a security specialist to help.

          Kasper Drake hasn’t met a trust fund baby he liked, though he is one himself. Upon meeting his uncle’s newest client he’s willing to throw all his preconceived notions out the window. He’s trying to get Harley to admit to their fierce attraction when her father shows up demanding to know Kasper's identity. She tells him that he’s her fiancée. Kasper latches onto her lie hoping to make her see how good it could be.

Fast Five Rave

My sons took me to seet Fast Five today. Okay I'm so not going to give any spoilers, but I have to tell everyone how good this movie was. Hot guys. Sexy women. Tons of action. What more could you ask for?



This was an action movie that gave you more. Like a good plot. There was romance, laughter, tension, explosions. We all agreed this movie is a must see. And more than once. It made me want to watch them all.

Buy Books E and Print.

I recently had a discussion with my sister and son about our favorite places to buy books.

There's a sad reason behind this conversation. The closest Borders to where I live is/was in Shrewsbury MA is closing by May. When we in lived in MA beofre moving to Maine for four and a half years we visisted this store a lot. Sometimes weekly. Since we've moved back it's become my guilty pleasure again. Now it's being taken away. I have to say there's a Barnes and Noble about the same distance away here in Worcester MA. The thing is Borders and B&N have a different feel. Do you know what I mean? i'm going to check out some smaller bookstores around here and see if I find one with a vibe and selections I like.

That's the point where we jumped to buying ebooks. All of my books are available at B&N online, but not in-store and my sister couldn't wrap her head around why. So I explained it once again. This is where the discussion hit on ordering from Amazon. My other sister has ordered some ebooks to read on her phone while at work. She hasn't been happy with her choises thus far, but I don't lay the blame with Amazon. Since my ebooks are released in e-format I explained I will always try to buy from publishers websites, beause the author gets I higher royalty rate. After that I'll hit BookStrand and ARe.

Okay so here's a quick list of places to stop by and find some great ebooks:

My Publishers:
       Pink Petal Books
       Siren Publishing

Ebook Venues:
       BookStrand
       ARe
       OmniLit
       B&N
       Amazon


What are your favorites? Is there any place you just wouldn't buy from?

It's New Release Time.
