Norcho Anti Slip Safety Bath Mat for Bathtub Bathroom with Suction Grip 34" x 23" L x W White
I have tried several bathmats for my shower and have not been happy with the way they work. For one I have to cut a whole out of the center to allow access tot he drain in the middle of the shower floor. That is just not good. This one though has exceeded my expectations and I have finally found a shower mat that I did not have to alter to get the results I wanted. Also while standing on this mat the bottom of my feet get a mini message. There are little rubbery like tips and some bubbles all over the beautiful design of the mat, that message your feet as you move around on the mat. There was no plastic or chemical small when I first opened the package. Some of the bath mats I have had in the past I have had to leave a window open for days to get the smell out. This did not come in a plastic throw away bag. It came in a very nice cloth drawstring bag. The bag can be used for storing other things. Gotta love that. This mat is a very large 34 x 23 inches, perfect size for just about any shower or bathtub. One of my favorite things about this mat is there are 93 suction cups on the bottom of this. This sucker isn't going anywhere until I manually grab it and pull it off the floor. I cannot say that about most of the bath mats I have used in the past. Honestly there is nothing about this bath mat I don't love. It can even be tossed in the wash machine. This can also be used as a floor mat outside of the bathtub.

Book Description:
Finding one’s psi-mate is something every Sandarian hopes for, but when Ian Cavacent accidentally starts the bonding process with the Earthling, Dani, he has to fight his desire with every ounce of his being. If the process is completed, it would be both political and financial suicide for Ian and his family.
A natural klutz, Dani somehow always manages to land on her feet and win those mixed martial arts matches she’s so fond of. At home on Cat Island her balance is thrown when bazillionaire Ian takes notice.
Unfortunately some butt-ugly Torog aliens also take notice sending her life spiraling out of control and into Ian’s arms. But Dani isn’t the type of woman to let some alien voodoo decide her future or her mate…no matter how gorgeous the man is or how much pleasure he gives her.
For centuries the Cavacents have mined Earth for a precious element, carnium, while protecting the planet from other alien species.
Thanks to the Torogs, Dani and Ian must flee to Sandaria. As Dani learns to use her newfound psi powers, the empire crumbles around them.
Will their love be strong enough to keep them alive and get them back to Earth?

Excerpt
Alien Attachments:
“Earth Protector?
You’re kidding right?”
“No. Pretty much
what it sounds like. Cliche as it may be, we are not alone in the universe.”
Dani held Jared’s
gaze. She’d heard what he said, but couldn’t process the words. They sat on her
brain like little beings, patiently waiting to be let in. Knock, knock. Dani
let out a nervous laugh. Maybe if I ignore them, they’ll go away. Jared didn’t
blink. Or maybe not.
“So you’re not an
EP?”
“Nah, I’m human,
just like you. I’m what they call a Support Agent, or SA for short. I do what I
can for Ian and the other EPs, but I’m based with Ian.”
“So
you’re a spy.”
“Support agent, not
secret agent,” Jared said. “Although, we are a secret.”
“You’re a spy for
aliens.”
“Stop it. It’s not
like that.”

Book Description:
Ria Montori is no stranger to kicking ass. Though petite in size, she packs a punch as a former Sandarian military officer who currently serves the Cavacent clan on a strange planet called Earth. She has no interest in seeking her one psi-mate who could bring her unparalleled pleasure through a sensual, otherworldly bond. She has no time for a lover of any kind. So why is she lured in by the beguiling Curzan native who just killed a government official?
Ty Sordina hates Ria’s kind. The Sandarians murdered his parents while he watched and enslaved his people. Driven by revenge, he vows that nothing and no one will stand in his way. Especially not a feisty redhead who challenges his every instinct and calls to his psi like no other.
But war is coming. And the two must succumb to temptation for only the power of their completed bond can defeat and destroy the enemy. But only if they surrender…

Excerpt Rebellion
“I had to get away
from you. From us.”
In that instant,
he knew he could never let that happen. He shook his head. Her right arm was
bleeding. There was a puncture wound that went all the way through her forearm
and a jagged tear, or maybe bite marks, below that. “You’re a mess, Red.” A
beautiful fracking mess.
She stood
perfectly still as he placed his fingers on either side of the hole, her blood
slick under his touch. The psi connection necessary to heal flowed through them
both. He had to place his other hand against the bark of the tree she leaned
against to steady himself. Once the bleeding stopped, he placed his fingers
over the tear. Another deep connection to stop the bleeding, and they both
moaned.
The pleasure
caused by their psi connection was overwhelming. This was no mere chemistry.
She was his psi-mate. There was no question now. Once the bleeding stopped, he
let go of her arm.
Her eyes bore into
him, and he was lost. He took her hand and led her deeper into the forest until
he found the trail he was looking for. They followed it in silence. She never
once asked where he was taking her. Their psi danced, and the tension between
them increased with every step. Finally, they came to the small one-room
hunting shack he’d been coming to in order to get some distance from her.
Ironic.
As they neared the
porch, the moonlight caught her hair, and it blazed red. He reached out and
pulled a leaf from her tresses before leading her inside.
He knew she
wouldn’t protest. She couldn’t stop this anymore than he could. Their psi were
deeply meshed together now and simply awaited their bodies to join.

Cover Artist: Nathalie Gray of Kanaxa Designs
Book Description:
Following the signal of foreign psi to an old abandoned building on Florin 5, Balastar Alder literally stumbles across the pugnacious raven-haired beauty, Kit Athorika.
He’s not the only one who’s looking for the mysterious portal making devices in her possession. When Torogs attack, she ports them to safety. Without the help of a single Portal Master.
Balastar offers to repay the favor by getting her off-planet and back to her own ship. Their escape is complicated when the Torog’s pursue. Forced to go silent and lay-low in an asteroid field, they have little to do. Fortunately, the chemistry between them ignites and they find endless ways to occupy their time.
Balastar convinces her to come and meet his boss, Lord Cavacent. Recently relocated to Earth, the Sandarian clan included a handful of rogue Portal Masters. Kit has her own reasons for hating and fearing the Portal Masters, but she needs all the help she can get to save her planet. She reluctantly agrees to seek out Lord Cavacent’s help, and his connections to the Galactic Trade Organization and its powerful military.
The Portal Masters’ Guild on Sandaria has controlled intergalactic portals throughout the galaxy for centuries, and jealously guard their secrets. One of those secrets has kept Kit’s home world under quarantine for nearly thirty years. But portals across the galaxy are failing and the guild is getting desperate.
Finding themselves bonded wasn’t expected, but having a psi-mate had its advantages. Can they free an entire planet and take down a guild as old as the Masters without losing their lives?

Excerpt Liberation:
"Frack,
look." Kit said, pointing to the screen.
Torog ships
blasted up the lines of each vector, including theirs. They were coming too
fast. Before Balastar could get the required thrust needed, the Torogs scanned
his ship as they passed. They slowed immediately and turned around.
Balastar watched
his controls. "Three, two, one. Hold on." As soon as his engine hit
the green line, he pulled out of position in the queue and shot straight up.
The Gravity Modulator was engaged but the ship had to make a series of course
corrections in order to avoid satellites and other low orbit objects. The seats
automatically formed a cocoon around their bodies and heads, preventing
whiplash. He gripped the arms of his chair and waited. Two and a half minutes
later, they were clear and headed to the closest interstellar portal.
"We've got
three following. Make that four," Kit said. "What do you think?
Balastar pulled up
the specs for the Torogs' ships. "We'll outgun them before we'll outrun
'em."
"Can you take
on four?"
"Do we have a
choice?"
"Maybe."
Kit flipped through nav charts with manic speed. She stopped and backed up.
"How big is it?"
Her psi pulsed,
and he grinned. "Pretty big."
She looked him up
and down. "I meant the ship. How long is it?"
"Two hundred
and twelve feet."
"That is
long."
Another pulse of
pleasure. If they kept this up they were going to go down fucking. Not a bad
way to go, but he'd rather stick around long enough for a repeat performance.
Kit swiveled her
chair to face him and leaned in closer.
Balastar met her
halfway, their faces inches apart.
The brown of her
eyes held specks of gold. She brushed her lips against his ear. His trousers
were now far too restrictive. "And exactly how wide is it, Balastar?"
He turned his head
and took a bite at the hollow of her shoulder sweeping his tongue in circles on
her skin. He wanted to taste her. Everywhere. He sucked hard, leaving a mark.
She groaned. "How wide?"
"Fifty-five
feet." His adrenaline was cranking.
"Yes!"
With quick rapid breaths, she swung back to the console. "We'll just make
it."
As much as he
wanted to continue their banter, staying alive was probably the better choice.
"You have a plan?"
"Depends."
She gave him a serious look. "How good are you?"
Another pulse left
him desperate to lose the pants or change the subject. "I can take her
anywhere."
"How long can
she run silent?"
"A week,
maybe more."
Kit hesitated a
moment before sending the data to his com. "We'll make the portal. Take us
to these coordinates, and I'll guide you from there."

xl burgundy bathrobe by TheComfortZone
I love this bathrobe it is like wrapping a stuffed animal around you, or cuddling in a nice soft warm blanket. It is super soft and very warm. It has 2 pockets large enough to really warm your hands. It also has a removable waist belt. This comes about mid calf on me and I am 5'6. I got the extra large one and it is kind of big, like I was hoping. I do wear a large and by the size of this one the large would of fit perfectly but when I want to cuddle down in my bathrobe I like them big and non restrictive, this one fits perfectly for the way I wanted it. I am very happy with this bathrobe and would also be more then happy to give one of these bathrobes as a gift. I really liked that there was no smell to it when I opened the package. Sometimes when you buy clothing on line they have weird smells, this did not. It was shipped to me in a plastic bag. This bathrobe is also completely washer and dryer safe. Very easy to care for and I love easy. The stitching is also done very well and should not fall apart quickly.

44 Piece Mini Breakfast Stove Kitchen Appliance Play Food Toy Set for Kids
The kids are thrilled with this set and so am I. Everything you need to fix a pretend meal for 2 is included. This is a 44 piece set. I won't name them all but like I said it is a placement for 2. I love the tomato, it is a 2 piece tomato that is velcroed in the cent so you can set it on the cutting board and cut it in half with the knife. Everything comes in a back pack so you can take it on the go. This is the first set I have seen that includes the stove, most of them have food or dishes or cookware, but hardly ever do you get all that in the same set and the stove. Everything in the set is made of plastic. There are a couple of small parts like the lid to the teapot. There are knobs n the stove but they seem to be on very well. But I would still keep an eye on small children.
My Grand Son is 1 1/2 years old, I just know he is going to be a famous chef someday, his favorite toys are kitchen sets. He loves playing with this set. He sets it on the coffee table and plays for hours.

YVGS Women's Hard Case Clutch Bag
I love this clutch bag. It is very pretty, but yet not embellished so it doesn't outshine you or your outfit. It is a tan color. It has a removable hidden gold tone chain shoulder strap that is about 21 1/2 inches long. the chain strap is easily hidden inside the bag, the hooks are also inside the bag where they cannot be seen if using this as a clutch. It is made of a hard plastic it has what I would say a tightly woven lattice work look, but they call it a snake skin look to it. It is 10 inches long, 1.8 inches wide, and 3.7 inches tall. It will hold more then it looks like it can. Plenty of room for keys, extra lipsticks, money and small cell phones. I have a Samsung S6 phone and without the case it fits perfectly in the bag. There is a golden bar clasp on top, it is about 3 inches long. It just pulls apart, it does not flip upwards. This does come in a very nice gift box and the clutch is wrapped in tissue paper inside to help protect it. Inside of the clutch is lined with black cloth.

Pixel Premium ABC Magnets for Kids Gift Set
The kids and I both love this magnetic alphabet set. The There are lots of colorful letter 104 to be exact. 1 full set of capital letters and 3 sets of lower case letters. Each set of letters are in a different color, red, green, yellow, and blue. There is also a magnetic white board included. The magnets stick well to the very thin and flexible magnetic board. It comes with a link to download a free ebook set at 19.95 value. The books are amazing with everything you need to help teach your kids build vocabulary, improve spelling skills and make learning more fun and easy.
The set also comes in a nice sturdy box to keep everything together when not in use. The magnetic letters are soft foam. the letter will stick to any metal surface as well as the enclosed board. This is a great set for anyone with kids, home schoolers and would even be great for teachers. I wish I had of had a set of these when my daughter was in school. She was in ESE and had a hard time with reading and spelling. I think something like this would of really helped, We did have sets of the old school plastic magnets, but with this having the magnetic board it would of been great for taking on the go.

Splaks 2.4Ghz Wireless Mobile Optical Mouse
Great mouse. Works very well with my Lenovo laptop. It has a small receiver that plugs into any USB port. The receiver can be found on the bottom of the mouse. It is plug and play. It hooked up very easily with my laptop and I have had no problems at all with it. It runs on 1 AA battery which is not included. It scrolls smoothly and very quietly. The top buttons are silent. It has 2 buttons on the side where your thumb goes to go back and forth between pages. It has 3 Adjustable Response Levels, so should work great with any program or game. It has a Ergonomic Shape and fits well in my hand, I have kind of small hands so to me that is great. A lot are too big and sometimes uncomfortable to hang on to for periods of time. It really is a great mouse.

he 3 Window Valentine's Triple Bow Hurricane Light with Heart Charms by Whole House Worlds
I have been looking for a focal point for my coffee table, the one I have has been there a while and I and the table needed a change. The second I saw this beautiful 3 window Valentine's Hurricane light, I knew this was my new focal point. I instantly fell in love with it. It will be setting on my table year round not just at Valentine's day.
There are 3 slots in the wooden container. Each one holds a glass candle holder, the holder can fit either tea lights or votives. The candles are not included but that is ok, I have a candle making shop in my back yard and can make my own. Each section also has a beautiful chrome finished heart charm that dangles on the front of the candle holder, each one also features a dainty little blue bow. If blue is not your color peel it off and glue another color to it. There are 2 handles one at each end which feature 2 small wooden beads. The wood of the candle holder is a distressed wood. There is nothing I don't love about this hurricane light. It is just beautiful. In person it is even more beautiful then in the pictures.
This does not come in a box, it is well wrapped in a bubble wrap type bag. Each votive holder is also individually wrapped in bubble wrap as well.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Excerpt One:
"Are you all right?" There was a keen glint in his
Fae friend's eyes as he gauged the amount of remaining whiskey in Jaden's
bottle.
"I'm fine." He leaned back into his chair feeling
as if he were sitting on a bed of fire ants.
"You sure? That's a nasty bruise on your chin--"
"I said--I'm fine." He was ready to smack the
smirk off Sori's face if he didn't stop pointing out how much he was out of his
comfort zone. An experience he wasn't used to having. Calculated control was
his norm. This? This edginess was extremely out of his usual suave self.
"What do we need to talk about?"
His friend's smile widened before fading into peaked brows
of obvious confusion. "I assume you'd like to know why Shomar asked for
your help."
"I see her."
"Okay, then maybe you'd like to know what she needs
help with."
"Isn't that the purpose for why we're sitting
here?"
"It is." Sori chuckled. "Seeing you once
worked for the Underworld government as a research and file clerk, Shomar felt
you'd be the perfect man to help Kindise find her lover."
Lover! She has a lover? In all his surveillance, he'd never
seen her display any form of public affection to anyone. His heart stopped for
a nanosecond as disappointment rested heavy at the center of his chest. Maybe
it was his Dirt Dweller upbringing, but he always fantasized about being her
first. He shook off his regret as his dream vanished.

Grapefruit Essential Oil - 100% Pure Therapeutic Grade - 10ml - By: Natural Acres
I love essential oils. I love the citrus scent of grapefruit essential oil. I also love the healing qualities of not just the grapefruit oil but all essential oils. I have diffusers all over my house and love the scent from essential oils. This Grapefruit oil from Natural acres throws a great scent. It is 100% pure oil, I wouldn't use anything less. This oil comes in a nice amber glass bottle which helps protect the oil from harsh lighting. Essential oils should be kept in cool dark places.
Grapefruit oil is great for more then the aroma. It is great for reducing stress, mental and physical fatigue by adding a few drops to a diffuser. Rub a few drop mixed with a carrier oil like coconut oil on your tummy to help ease menstrual cramps, just to name a few. Grapefruit oil is also wonderful mixed with other oils like basil, frankincense, ylang ylang and others.

eightyFive Multipurpose Decorative Collapsible Storage Boxes Orange and Blue 3pc
I am love with these storage containers. They are great. I love that they come in a matching set of 3. I really love that they have a hinged lid on them that velcro's shut. I have several storage containers that do not have lids and really don't help a whole lot since they cannot be easily stacked. This set can be stacked very nicely. I love the different sizes about as much I love the lids. I have several small items that just did not work well in the large lidless storage cubes. My favorite and most used container out of this set is the medium one. It is 30x25x10cm. The other 2 sizes are the large one: 34x30x19cm and the small one: 25x20x14cm. These are so versatile and can be used for so many different things, anywhere in the house or even in the garage.

Silver Heart Classic Ear Studs with Cubic Zirconia by Glitzs
These are small but very beautiful earrings. I have a set of real sapphire earrings and these almost match in color. I love the heart cut of the stone. I can only wear sterling sterling, everything else tends to break my ears out. I was able to wear these with no problem. These would be great for little girls as well as women. They do catch the light while wearing them. They are not to small to be seen. I just love how pretty they look in my ears. These earring come in a very nice drawstring pouch. The earring are inside in a small zip top bag.
