Master of the Mountain by Cherise Sinclair- Book Review

Master of the Mountain by Cherise Sinclair is by far one of the best books I have read ever. I Love that there is a writer out there who knows how to write a BDSM book. This book is about Rebecca and Logan. Rebecca goes away with her boyfriend for the weekend to a resort owned by Logan. Her boyfriend tells her before they leave that this is a swingers event. Rebecca is pretty much told come with me see how it is. If she didn't go then he would of dumped her right on the spot. Rebecca goes because she feels this is the only way to save her relationship. When Rebecca and her boyfriend arrive he is welcomed with open arms and she is pretty much pushed into the back ground. Logan sees that Rebecca is pretty much off by herself. He stands back and watches her from a far. One thing I love about this book is that Rebecca is not a twig! She is a BBW! I love that Cherise Sinclair, has written a book that a huge majority of women can relate to with the female lead. A woman who is not always comfortable in her skin. Logan talks to her a bit. Logan and Rebecca get to know each other after Rebecca gets thrown out of her cabin by her boyfriend. Logan takes her back to his place that is on the top floor of the lodge. Let's just say the book gets very hot from there. I don't want to give anything away. Logan has issues that he needs to deal with. He is a Vet and is dealing with PTSD. Logan's brother pretty much tells him he needs to get some help but Logan isn't sure if he wants too. Watch as Rebecca and Logan learn about trust, love and starting over! I recommend this book to anyone who wants to read a great BDSM romance novel. I give this book 5 stars!!!

Accesories for my new phone.

I must really be behind the times. I used to just have my phone be a phone. You know what I mean. Pick it up at the store then bring it home and use it. Now all of a sudden you look around and people have Bling on their cases. Designs, sparkles and favorite tv characters. That makes me think. Maybe I can find a Sponge Bob case. So yes, I did end up going to the dark side this morning. I bought a few cases for my new phone. I have a feeling that Jeff will say something. Then again, I need a case for when we go to Vegas and dress up. So I got a black and silver blinged out case. Then I got a cute light blue and white polka dotted case. My third case is pink and white with flowers on it. I know I really only needed one. The prices were to good to pass up! I got three cases for less then twenty dollars! They were practically giving away the cases. The only thing I had to pay for was the shipping. I am sure I will find a few more online. My phone will be ready for any occasion! I have a feeling my phone will look cuter then I do!

Soap how I can't get enough of your soapy goodness!! What companies and soaps I recommend!

Lately, I would have to say over the past four or so months, I have been in love with different types of soaps. Different companies and smells. I would say a huge majority of these places are independent people trying their hands at a new fun way to make money. I try to support independent people as supposed to huge companies. I would love to share with you some of the great companies I have found on Facebook. Also some of the scent I have liked from these companies.

I have found a company called Peace Love and Bath Products. They are located in Seattle Washington. She has some great sugar scrub soaps that I love. I love the Georgia peach, Mango Paradise or Milk and Honey. This is a small company. I try to support smaller companies as supposed to places you can find anywhere. You can find them on Facebook.com or Twitter.

I also enjoy a company called Bath Bombs or www.Bath-a-Licious.com I love the smell and feel of the Strawberry 'N' Cream soap!They sell bars of soap, but they also have bath bombs. I have not tried the bath bombs yet. I have a ton of them, but we don't have a tub. So I have to wait until we go on vacation to use them.

I found a place on a bidding site, Their name is VTwiccan. They sell all natural soaps. They are located in Rutland, VT - sorry I don't have a website for you or Facebook page.

A store on Etsy.Com that I like is called Smellicious Soaps. They have bars of soap that don't have any fragrance. One with fragrance that I love is called Spring Dream Cucumber Melon. It looks like there are real cucumbers in the bar. I am not sure if they are real but it sure looks like it. It smells amazing!!

A great little shop you should visit if you ever get to Las Vegas is called Sweet Bubble Bath Confections. Luscious Handmade Soap. They are off the strip. Not to far off the strip only a few miles. Google them or find them on Facebook.com. It is well worth the trip! I tried Coos Bay and their Lavender scented soaps. They smell amazing! They also have one very cute thing, I have not seen anywhere else. They have soaps that look like desserts. They would look very cute in a guest bathroom.

Another place in Las Vegas is Basin White in the Venetian shops connected to the Palazzo Hotel. It is a must stop for any soap lover!! I have tried the pink Sugar bar soap. OMG is it amazing. It smells so great! Also if you love vanilla as much as I do try the South Pacific Vanilla! They also have scrubs.

One store I think I found on Facebook but I am not totally sure is called Taryn's Treasures (www.tarynsbathtreasures.com). She has a great Oatmeal Soap, which both Jeff and I love. She is also a company that sells shave soaps. Jeff has tried hers and says he would use it again.

I hope this group of wonderful soap shops will have you wanting to stop buying run of the mill dial and zest. Trust me they are not much more money then stuff you buy at the grocery store. Plus they will have you smelling so good you will get compliments from people around you!

Giveaway Ideas to help get the word out about my new blog.

Does anyone think I should do a Giveaway to try to get more readers??? How about if I do a Giveaway for a knitted beanie or a free E- book from an author that would be kind enough to supply a free e-book. I would maybe do this once I get 100 readers. What do you guys think???

When a man is to lazy to fix a fitted sheet.

This morning I look at the bed and say to Jeff, the fitted sheet is off the bed. Jeff decides to inform me that I can fix the sheet. As if he is to busy to do this activity. It would cut into him getting dressed for work. I go and fix the sheet. Being told in the process that if I had put it on correctly yesterday, this would of not happened. Then instructed how to put on a fitted sheet. Once the fitted sheet is back on the bed, Jeff makes sure to tuck a corner under the mattress. Which in my book defeats what I just did. Hence he should of just fixed it in the first place. Uggh Men! Can't live with them, can't ask them to fix a fitted sheet.

Salvaged by Chelsea Camaron- Book Review

Salvaged by Chelsea Camaron is an amazing book. It is a bitter sweet love story between Brayden and Maggie. Maggie is a sweet young woman who is in love with Brayden. Brayden is dealing with his troubled past. Maggie does not know that Brayden pretty much has put her whole world into a tail spin. Thank Goodness for her best friend Dina and Dina's boyfriend Ryder. I wanted to kick Brayden's butt. This guy Brayden seems to think that by not answering his phone everything he caused would just go away. Maggie is a warm kind soul who does not give up on Brayden but gives him time to prove to her that he has worked on his issues. I loved how Maggie and Brayden had true friends in Dina and Ryder. That not everyone walks away when you are in true need. The way that Maggie's family treats Dina like another daughter as supposed to just being Maggie's best friend is truly touching. I am glad that Chelsea Camaron addressed some real hard issues in this book. Grief, loss, love, trust and the power of friendship and family. I also enjoyed the love scenes. I will be reading her other books. I recommend this book and this writer 100%. I give this book five stars! I have to say I think I will be reading this book again! I can be a picky reader, This book made me want to root for Maggie and Brayden!! I am one happy reader!! This book can be purchased on Amazon.com
