Mingao Little Girls Denim Floral Print Sleeveless Skirt Dresses

I chose this dress for my Grand Daughter. She is a real girly girl. Se loves dresses and loves to twirl with skirt. This dress is perfect for her. When she twirls the skirt of this dress will twirl with her. The dress itself is beautiful with the denim look bodice and the floral skirt. I love the denim look knot at the waist it really sets this dress off. The material is thin so is great for our hot Florida weather. We have washed and dried this dress a couple of times with no problems at all. We did not notice any shrinking, color fade, or color bleeding. The dress fits her perfectly and it is at the moment one of her favorite things to wear.

Goodia 30LED Solar Powered Waterproof Gold Moroccan Orb LED Globe String Light

I personally cannot wait for Christmas. I have the perfect spot for this awesome set of lights. I have a large screened in front porch that I always decorate and the set will be going on the back end behind one of my Christmas trees. My husband has fixed the screen to accommodate the solar box from a set I used last year. The box goes through the screen wire in the top corner and hands on a rail and the screen wire velcros shut around the wire.

This set of lights has 30 LED Gold Moroccan balls. The strand is about 10 1/2 feet long. There are 2 modes of lighting, solid and flashing. On a full charge these lights will burn about 6 to 8 hours. I love solar lights because I can hang them and then the work is done for me. I don't have to get electricity to them, no ugly cords hanging. I don't have to remember to turn them off and on. They come on as the sun goes down and turn off either when the sun comes up or they run out of charge. These light are quite bright.

Blurb Blitz: Sins That Haunt by Lucy Farago

Sins That Haunt

by Lucy Farago

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE: Romantic Suspense

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

The glitz and glamour of Las Vegas hide a multitude of sins. And in Lucy Farago’s show-stopping series, a lawyer and an FBI agent take a walk on the seedy side, where greed breeds a deadly desperation...

Civil attorney Shannon Joyce walks the line of law and order, but she learned from day one how to put up a good front—thanks to her con man father. Thirteen years ago, she left the east coast and her life of crime behind. Her high school sweetheart, Noah, was collateral damage, but some things can’t be helped. But now there’s no escape when her past comes roaring down the Strip—in the oh-so-tempting form of the man she left behind...

Special Agent Noah Monroe has Shannon exactly where he wants her—in the back of his car in handcuffs. Her grifter father has been murdered, and the FBI needs Shannon to keep one of his scams in play to bag the big bad guy who was financing him. Once again a pawn in someone’s else game, Shannon will have to trust her instincts to survive both the peril threatening her—and the passion Noah reignites…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Excerpt Three:

“What the hell, Noah.” Controlling her temper in court was one thing, but here, in this stupid car, parked at the airport, it sounded a lot like the FBI was blackmailing her. What, did everyone want a piece of her? First some lunatic holds her hostage so he could kill her best friend. Then another piece of garbage holds her hostage by threatening to expose what she’d done as a kid. And now the feds wanted in on that action?

“Hear me out.” He held up his hands. “Everyone agrees—”

“Everyone?”

“Hanover PD and my team.”

“Oh. Wow, there are a whole slew of you? Don’t I feel loved?”

“We want your help. In exchange we’ll see about getting you off their suspect list. No one will know you were ever on it.”

She shook her head in disgust. “You’re blackmailing me.”

“Think of it as you do the agency a favor and we do you one.”

“I can’t possibly imagine what it is you all think I can do for you.” She was a lawyer. None of her skills would help them unless they were planning to sue someone.

“What is it? You want the file. Fine, I’ll give it you.” At this point, anything to avoid this mess.

“My team would like to see it, but no, that’s not it.”

“Then what, for heaven’s sake? Spit it out,” she said, ready to pull her hair out—or his.

“We need you to continue in his place.”

The Deepest Dark

by Joan Hall Hovey

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE: Suspense Thriller

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

THE DEEPEST DARK

Following the deaths of her husband, Corey, and ten year old daughter Ellie in a traffic accident, author Abby Miller sinks ever deeper into depression. She contemplates suicide as a way to be with them, and to end her unrelenting pain.

In a last desperate effort to find peace, she drives to Loon Lake where they last vacationed together, wanting to believe they will be waiting for her there. At least in spirit. Barring that, the pills Doctor Gregory gave her to help her sleep, are in her purse.

The cabin at Loon Lake was her and Corey’s secret hideaway, and not even Abby’s sister, Karen, to whom she is close, knows where it is.

But someone else does. He is one of three men who have escaped from Pennington prison. They are dangerous predators who will stop at nothing to get what they want - and to keep from going back to prison. Having already committed atrocious crimes, they have nothing to lose.

Unknowingly, Abby is on a collision course with evil itself. And the decision of whether or live or die will soon be wrenched from her hands.

~~

"...Joan Hall Hovey knows suspense. She keeps it simmering in every scene she writes and knows just the right moments to turn up the heat and bring it all to a boil. THE DEEPEST DARK is a terrific suspense novel." James Hankins, author of BROTHERS AND BONES and SHADY CROSS

"...readers will be chilled as they root for Abby to take back her life and escape the Loon Lake cabin alive and breathing. Once the first page is read in this one, nothing will be able to draw your attention away..."

EXCERPT:

The three dark figures moved quietly among the shadowy, rain-dripping birches, pines and alders toward the old farmhouse where amber lights glowed in the two lower windows. They crept with the stealth of foxes intent upon the chickens in the hen house, hungry and deadly, already tasting blood. And the Nichols’ actually did keep a few chickens of their own, mainly for the fresh eggs, but not altogether for that reason. They liked seeing them clucking and pecking about the yard; they were good company and cost only a bit of seed. Once, they had operated their own farm, and a fair sized one it was, too. These days they kept a small vegetable garden and Ethel Nichols tended the flowers that grew along the walkway and in her window boxes, mainly morning glories in heavenly blue and pansies in shades of lavender and sun-yellow.

In their early eighties now, and in relatively good health, they were enjoying the fruits of their labor in these latter years, including the big screen TV on which they were presently watching an old rerun of All in the Family, one of life’s pleasures that Hartley and Ethel shared. …

When the commercial came on, Ethel rose from the big stuffed chair across from her husband’s Lazy Boy. She was white-haired, ample of figure, and quick to smile. “Cup of tea, Hartley?”

He looked in her direction and grinned mischievously. Though his own hair had long gone and he walked with a limp, to Ethel he was as handsome as the first time she saw him walking into Mr. Biggar’s class in grade nine. She could still see him as he was then, tall and lean, with a thatch of fair hair fallen over his brow.

“Wouldn’t mind having just a tiny slice of that apple pie you baked to go with my tea.” An affectionate coaxing twinkled in blue eyes that had faded only a little over the years.

Looking at him, she mentally shook her head. He knew he had trouble getting to sleep if he ate after he’d had his supper. “Sure,” she said. And it will be tiny, Mister Nichols, you can bet on that. She had started for the kitchen when she stopped in the doorway between the living room and kitchen, thinking she’d heard a noise outside. She listened. Heard it again. A squeaking of the porch swing chain?

“Did you hear that?” she called into the living room.

“Hear what? Didn’t hear nothin’, Ethel.”

“I’m not sure. Sounded like... oh, I’m sure it’s nothing. The wind.”

Blog Tour: Here Comes the Witch by Ani Gonzalez

This is my stop during the blog tour for Here Comes the Witch by Ani Gonzalez. This blog tour is organized by Lola's Blog Tours. The blog tour runs from 7 till 20 September. You can see the tour schedule here.



Here Comes The Witch (Main Street Witches #1)

by Ani Gonzalez

Genre: Paranormal Cozy Mystery

Age category: Adult

Release Date: 7 September, 2016

Blurb:

Jewelry designer Kat Ramos has come to Banshee Creek to break the famous Hagen House curse and, in order to do that, she must marry Liam Hagen. A vengeful ghost with a deadly history isn’t part of the deal, and neither is love. Will Kat be able to handle both? Or will the mystery of the cursed Hagen House remain unsolved?

Excerpt #1:

They crossed into the foyer, and she peered at the black and white marble floor.

No sign of bloodstains.

No sign of anything except furniture polish and potpourri, in fact. The room, with its sparkling floors and polished wood staircase, looked pristine. The crystal chandelier was indeed massive, the crystals sparkling in the afternoon glow. It was, she had to admit, a spectacular entry.

Liam, however, did not seem impressed. He was staring at the wooden entry door, a concerned look on his face.

"Did the ghost knock?" she asked, trying to figure out what was wrong.

He looked up. "Oh, no. It's just, um, we may have skipped a step."

"We skipped lots of them. We still have to see the living room and the upstairs."

He shook his head. "No, not that kind of step. One of the wedding rituals."

What? She didn't realize there was a checklist for this marriage. They'd gotten the licenses and gone before the judge. Wasn't that enough? They'd had a wedding reception, for Pete's sake. She'd thrown a bouquet, eaten a wedding cupcake, and had her picture taken.

What else did the house want?

Liam opened the front door and stepped outside. He motioned for her to follow.

Oh, crap. "You've got to be kidding."

"Nope," he said, laughing. "I have to carry you over the threshold. Yolanda said we had to fulfill all the wedding rituals."

"But … I don't know if you've noticed, but I'm not exactly skinny." She wasn't obese by any means, but she was, well, healthy. Okay, she was curvy.

He frowned. "What are you talking about? You're perfect. Now, come on out so we can get this done."

She gave in, following him outside. "Fine, but if you get a hernia, don't blame the curse. It's your own darn fault.

He laughed and closed the door behind her. "I think that's highly unlikely. Ready?"

She took a deep breath. The afternoon sun washed over the house, making the white paint gleam. A rogue sunbeam hit the brass doorknob, giving her the strange feeling that the house, amused by the spectacle, was winking at her.

Great, that was just what she needed, a cursed house with a sense of humor.

"I'm ready," she said. After all, she couldn't let a building intimidate her, could she?

But Liam didn't move, his eyes were fixed on her. She glanced down surreptitiously, checking to make sure she didn't have duck sauce on her cream shirt. Nope, for once she hadn't smeared food on her clothes.

Then what the heck was he staring at?

The answer dawned on her slowly. He was staring at her. This was the kind of look a man gave to a woman he found attractive.

Scratch that. This was more than attraction. The heat in his gaze was unmistakable, and she felt herself blush in response. She hadn't expected this kind of attention.

"Liam?" she asked, her voice a bit shaky.

He blinked, coming out of his stupor. "Oh, sorry." He opened the front door then stepped toward her. "Ready?"

She tensed as he wrapped an arm around her shoulders, then bent down. In a split second he'd hauled her up, making it look easy. She held her breath as he walked toward the house, holding her in his arms.  She didn't dare breathe until he reached the foyer.

He set her down gently. "There we go."

A sudden feeling of … joy swept through her. She took a shaky breath, feeling woozy. He steadied her, arms wrapped around her body. She could feel the rough fabric of his sports coat under her hands. He smelled like aftershave and soap, a clean, masculine smell. Was she trembling? Yep, she was. Her left hand, the one that now wore the filigree diamond ring, was shaking. A beam of sunlight hit the chandelier, blinding her.

"All done now," he said. Was it her imagination or was his voice a bit shaky too?

He straightened, his grip loosening around her, but she held on, compelled by a force she could not name. She felt curiously giddy, almost bubbly.

"No." The word seemed to come from far away, and it was a long moment before she realized she'd been the one who said it. "We still have one thing to do," the alien voice inside her continued, this time in a whisper.

She leaned forward, her hands still on his shoulders as if her body—with a will of its own—could not bear to break the contact. He bent down, looking confused.

The chandelier rained tiny beams of light, a magical mist of electric snowflakes that swirled around them as she kissed him, finally tasting the forbidden fruit she'd longed for all day long.  The magical embrace seemed to go on forever.

Finally, Liam broke the kiss. He stared at her in confusion, then turned toward the still-open door.

"Did you hear that?" he asked. "It sounded like a car."

"What?" The kiss had left a warm afterglow that made it difficult to focus.

A familiar noise reached her ears, an odd choking sound like a car motor dying a slow painful death. The metallic groan woke her up. The glutinously warm, happy feeling faded away, and she pulled away from Liam and ran toward the door.

A small yellowish-gray car was speeding down the road at an impressive speed. It was old, it was fast, and it was her car.

The stupid house had carjacked her baby? How?

"I'm calling the police," Liam said, grabbing his phone.

Kat ran out of the house, racing after her vehicle and cursing under her breath. Not her car. Why did it have to be her car?

She watched in disbelief as the yellow hatchback braked and made a left turn onto Main Street, ignoring the frantic honking of the vehicles around it.

What the …?

She slowed down, unable to keep up her jog in the heels she was wearing. She turned and saw Liam's truck backing out of the driveway of the Hagen House. He was driving to pick her up.

The sun was setting and the oak trees cast a shadow over the building's facade. The house, which had seemed so welcoming a few minutes ago, now seemed dark and uninviting. Liam had left the lights on and the house seemed to glare balefully at her.

Kat glared back.

The stupid house had messed with her car. This wasn't a business arrangement anymore.

This was personal.

My Review:

Kat is a fledgling jewelry designer with dreams of opening her own SOHO shop. Liam is a guy who likes remodeling old houses and selling them. 

Liam's family home is cursed.  He tracks down Kat who happens to be related to the Lady who put the curse on the house. Liam offers Kat a deal she can't refuse. So she agrees to move to Banshee Creek Virginia, marry Liam and live together for up to a year, and the curse should be broken. When the curse has been lifted and the house sells Liam will give Kat a quiet divorce and half of the profits and she can buy the shop of her dreams and go on with her life.  

Sounds easy right? Unmentioned was a vengeful ghost and the deadly history of the house. Kat also was not bargaining for how fast she falls for Liam and he in return. Or how much she would fall for the town as well.

I really enjoyed this story very much. I would like to make my reservations for my next vacation in Banshee Creek. The town is so intriguing. It is a totally haunted town. All of the people in the town are so nice and open to everything paranormal.  I wish this were a real town. From the book it sounds like a real town and I am dying to go visit. I cannot wait to get my hands on the next book in this series. 

I received this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

About the Author:

I write paranormal romantic comedy and cozy mystery (whew, that's a mouthful!) set in Banshee Creek, Virginia, The Most Haunted Town in the USA. My books feature feisty funny heroines dealing with a host of paranormal critters (ghosts, cryptids, pagan gods...the sky's the limit) and mysteries. They find magic, love and laughter and readers get to follow them every step of the way.



I love quirky towns with spooky stories, and, thanks to my books, I get to "live" in one year-around. In real life I live in a Minneapolis suburb (which is sadly lacking in ghosts) with my husband and three children and I'm still trying to adjust to the cold.

HiGoing Bluetooth Headphones With Mic Sweatproof

I am loving my new headphone. I really love the hook style ear pieces. My ears are very sensitive to having earbuds jammed into them plus I need to be able to hear things that are going on around me to an extent. This set hands on my ear and all though it does have the buds that go into my ear I can have them on without actually having them pushed into canal. The sound quality of these ear phones is great. They are very loud and the sound is clear. The Bluetooth paired very easily and quickly the first time and now when I turn them on they connect almost instantly with my phone or computer. I like the length of the cord as well, It drapes around my neck nicely. I think the hooks keep these in my ears better then regular headphones that just jam into the ear. These are comfortable to wear over my ears, they are very lightweight and do not pull on my ears. These are sport earphones so are sweat resistant. I wear these on my evening walks with my husband but I also wear them at work. These come with a very nice zippered case that keeps my earphones nice and neat while in my purse or pocket at work when I cannot have them draped around my neck. It also comes with a charge cord. These can be charged by a wall charger, car charger, or any USB port.
