AMAZON US   |   AMAZON CA   |   AMAZON UK REVIEW: Great cinematography! The hubby and I watched this together. I had seen him play the game a few times, but my knowledge of the game is slim-to-none. I didn't know the story or the characters, other than the role he played as the assassin. This is where the hubby could fill me in, knowing the game inside and out. The first thing he noticed was how much story they added to an already existing story, though that was minimal to begin with. There were a couple of moments th

#Win A Baby For The Deputy by Cathy McDavid (US)

C ATHY MCDAVID  made it her goal to read every Walter Farley book ever written when she was in the third grade. Who knew such an illustrious ambition would eventually lead to a lifelong love of all things Western and a career writing contemporary romances for Harlequin? With more than 1 million books sold, the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author is a member of the prestigious Romance Writers of America’s Honor Roll. An “almost” Arizona native and mom to "fairly" grownup twins, she lives with her own real-life sweetheart and spends her days penning stories about good-looking cowboys riding the range, busting a bronc, and sweeping gals off their feet. It a tough job, but she’s willing to make the sacrifice.  1)       How did you come up with the relationship between Aaron Travers and Melody Hartman ? There seems to be a trend these days for young couples to “hang out together” rather than date --- at least, that’s what I hear and what my daught

Wildcat by Sara Paretsky (7)

Kindle:  842 KB Print Length:  48 pages Publisher:  Witness Impulse (March 7, 2017) ASIN:  B01N5EKGTQ V.I. Warshawski developed her strength and sense of justice at a very early age.  It’s 1966 and on the south side of Chicago racial tensions are at an all-time high. Dr. Martin Luther King is leading marches at Marquette Park and many in the neighborhood are very angry. With nothing but a bicycle, eighty-two cents in her pocket, and her Brownie camera hanging from her wrist, Victoria sneaks off to Marquette Park alone to protect her father Tony, a police officer who is patrolling the crowds. What begins as a small adventure and a quest to find her father and make sure he is safe turns into something far more dangerous.  As the day goes on and the conflict at the park reaches a fever pitch Victoria realizes she must use her courage and ingenuity if she wants to keep herself and her family members out of harm’s way.
