Vlog: Murder on the Bride's Side by Tracy Kiely

In Murder on the Bride's Side, Roni Matthews was disliked, hated even, by those closest to her. Now, Detective Grant must sort through a list of suspects in order to uncover her actual killer. No easy feat with so many people who are more relieved than grief-stricken about Roni's death. 

Here, Detective Grant is interrogating Roni's daughter, Megan, who is quick to point fingers in the other direction. 



Wow. The list of suspects keeps growing. It looks like Detective Grant and Elizabeth Parker have their work cut out for them.  To discover Roni's killer, grab a copy of Murder on the Bride's Side.

Vlog: Darcy Goes to War by Mary Simonsen + Giveaway!!

May I have this dance?

In my review I stated that Simonsen’s portrayal of Mr. Darcy is enough to make any girl forget her upbringing and manners. With the war taking place, Darcy seems to be determined to make the most of his time with Elizabeth. Here is just one example of his persistence.

It is probably a good thing Lizzy is driving the lorry. This might help her to maintain her resolve and not get involved with a man during the war. But can Darcy be ignored, especially when he is such a smooth talker, and irresistibly good looking?

Vlog: Echoes of Pemberley by Cynthia Ingram Hensley

Echoes of Pemberley and the Taming of Catie Darcy

After coming home for the summer, Catie Darcy desires to enjoy the perfect, full-mooned summer night on her estate, however, she  is startled by an intruder.

Let’s discover who this person is and what happens.

Well, it appears horses will not be the only thoroughbred Mister Kelly tames this summer. And the way things are looking, I don’t think Miss Catie is going to make it easy for him.

Sound interesting? What are your thoughts?

I thought this was a great coming-of-age story. What are some other coming-of-age stories you have read and enjoyed? 

A Summer in Europe Vlog

In A Summer in Europe, Gwendolyn Reese is gifted a five-week tour of Europe with her aunt’s Sudoku & Mahjongg club. This sixty and older group reminds me of the golden-agers in Betty White's new television show, Off Their Rockers. Aunt Bea and friends really know how to have a good time and how to get the most out of life.

Here’s just a glimpse of what Gwen is in store for this summer, and of the liveliness of the S&M Club:

As you can see, Aunt Bea and her S&M club are a hoot! I found myself cracking up at their antics. They truly added to the enjoyment of A Summer in Europe.

Are you planning any trips this summer? If so, are you going to be in the company of your own Aunt Bea and company?

How do you want to be perceived or behave when you reach your golden years?

We do not do much during the summer as this is the demanding time for my husband’s job. However, we are going to try to get to the beach with our cousins for a few days, and the kids and I will be heading to Huntsville, AL to visit my husband’s aunt. Other than that, it will be a low key summer: pool, park, zoo, fountains, and any other free event!

I truly hope that as I age, I continue to enjoy life and make the most of it, just like Aunt Bea and her friends.
