FORID small trash bags - Yellow, 35 ct, 4 gallon, 2pk

These small trash bags are the perfect size for my bathroom garbage can. They are the 4 gallon size. I have the bright yellow bags. There are 35 bags on each roll and these come in a  2 pack so you get 70 trash bags. These bags are the 15.7 inches by 19.7 inches. These are 0.95 mil. they are kind of thin and do tear easily if you pull or push on them to hard, but still great for the trash in my bathroom. I don't have a lot of sharp or heavy garbage in my bathroom. These also work great int he trash can by my bed, and the small can in my living room. Each roll comes in it's own cardboard box to keep them nice and neat until you open them. There is also a sticky tab at the end of each roll so when you take them out of the box and use one you can replace the sticker to keep the bags nicely rolled up. This is great if you do not store them in the box. There is also a perforation in the side of the box that can be punched out for easy feeding of the trash bags. Both boxes of bags also came with a small sachet envelope mine are both strawberry scented. These can be left in the box or used in a drawer or closet.

4 Evergreen Engagement Ring Tips That Will Help You Stay Within Budget

The excitement of getting married can lead people to do crazy impractical things. One of the most common pre-wedding mistakes is spending too much on an engagement ring. While there is no harm in buying an expensive ring, the problem lies when you end up spending more than you can afford.

This does not apply to you if you have put away a portion of your income and buying the ring from personal savings. That’s the sensible way to go and a practice that’s becoming increasingly rarer.

Most people just swipe their credit cards to buy an engagement ring with a price tag that’s way more they can pay. That’s barring the fact that they now would need to pay a whopping interest rate on an already expensive ring.

Thankfully there is an easy way out. You can simply buy a ring that you can afford to pay. There are more than a few online shops that sell affordable engagement rings in the UK. These rings are crafted from less expensive (no less special) metals and come fitted with beautiful gems.

To make sure you do not start your married life with a debt, following 4 all-weather tips to save money when buying engagement rings.

Buy the Engagement Ring Online: Going to a jewelry store to buy engagement rings is overrated and it’s an easy way to lose track of your budget. Store executives often have a commission percentage, which means they are going to use every trick in the book to get you to spend more. If you are someone who struggles to say no, visiting a jewelry shop can lead you to spend double your initial budget. When buying online, you are much more likely to make a practical purchase decision. You also get the added advantage of quickly comparing prices.

Explore Alternative Metal Options: No matter where you buy it from platinum is expensive. However, who says you need to buy platinum in the first place. There are plenty of amazing metal options to explore. If you want a white metal that resembles the look of platinum then try titanium, palladium, and cobalt. If you want a golden metal that comes without the hefty cost of gold, then buy yellow gold or a gold-plated ring. Rose gold engagement rings are also a great option as they have a unique reddish hue, unlike any other metal types.

Explore Non-Diamond Gem Options: Right from lab-made sapphires to natural stones such as peridot, aquamarine, and cubic zirconia, there are plenty of non-diamond gem options. Some lab-grown gems have amazing clarity and they look better than their natural variants. If you are looking for an affordable gem that looks like a diamond then check out moissanite and cubic zirconia.

Buy a Bridal Ring Set: If you are planning on buying an engagement ring and wedding rings then it makes sense to buy an affordable bridal ring set. These are usually more affordable when compared to buy the three rings (one engagement ring and two wedding rings) separately. Buying a set also ensures you get matching designs.

Lucia—known as Amina—manages the Orchid Club, a secret society where fantasies become reality. But for Lucia, it’s strictly business, profitable enough to finance her dream: a home for the lost girls of the streets. Surrounded by lovers, she only observes, unwilling risk her future for any man. No member has ever intrigued her…until him, the masked stranger whose heated looks sear her skin. After months of suppressed longing, they dare to give in to temptation…  

But the late duke’s legacy comes with a shocking secret, and the scandal threatens to destroy everything Tom loves… his family, the Orchid Club, and even Lucia.

Excerpt:


She sensed someone’s gaze on her like a velvet glove stroking down the back of her neck.

Lucia looked around to find the source of the sensation. Her breath stuttered and her pulse came in a

quick flutter when she saw its origin.

A rangy, dark-haired man in a blue mask strode purposefully toward her. He moved with fluid, masculine

grace, his body muscular and strapping. The direct way he approached captivated her—as though nothing could keep him from being near her.

Lucia’s pulse leapt again. She shook her head, trying to dismiss her reaction to the guest’s approach. Clients often turned their interests toward her. Yet there was a palpable sensuality to the way he walked and the interest in his gaze. It held frank erotic intent, and the confidence that he could give her extraordinary pleasure.

Even at a distance, his eyes said, I. Want. You.

The Seas of Distant Stars by Francesca G. Varela

Literary Science-Fiction

Date Published:  August 7th, 2018

Publisher: Owl House Books

Agapanthus was kidnapped when she was only two years old, but she doesn’t remember it. In fact, she doesn’t remember her home planet at all. All she knows is Deeyae, the land of two suns; the land of great, red waters. Her foster-family cares for her, and at first that’s enough. But, as she grows older, Agapanthus is bothered by the differences between them. As an Exchanger, she’s frail and tall, not short and strong. And, even though she was raised Deeyan, she certainly isn’t treated like one. One day, an Exchanger boy completes the Deeyan rite-of-passage, and Agapanthus is inspired to try the same. But, when she teams up with him, her quest to become Deeyan transforms into her quest to find the truth―of who she is, and of which star she belongs to.

About the Author

Francesca G. Varela was raised in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. In 2015 she graduated from the University of Oregon with degrees in Environmental Studies and Creative Writing, and she then went on to receive her master’s degree in Environmental Humanities from the University of Utah.

Francesca’s dream of becoming an author began in third grade, and her writing career had an early start; she wrote her award-winning first novel, Call of the Sun Child, when she was only 18 years old, and she wrote her second novel, Listen, when she was only 20.

When not writing or reading, Francesca enjoys playing piano, figure skating, hiking, identifying wild birds, plants, and constellations, and travelling to warm, sunny places whenever she can.

Melissa's
Menagerie by Lori
Hoopengardner

After the death of her parents, Melissa was
on her own to carry on her family's secret. She was lonely, scared
and busy. That is until she found some people she could trust.
Friendships and more just seemed to happen.

The
Rainbow Truck by Jeremy
Simons

On the backroads of Louisiana, the unthinkable
happened to Melissa. A truck tried to run her off the road. She could
have let it go, but she was too proud for that. Besides, its color
intrigued her. Oh yeah, and the blood on the tailgate.

She
and Scott followed it to a secluded camp where their fortunes were
forever sealed. She had to fight. She had to stand on her own two
feet. She had to...survive.

But could it be that easy? Find out in
The Rainbow Truck.

Unbound
Wonder by Niki
Livingston

Melissa’s past doesn’t define her and she
refuses to allow her teenage trauma to hold her down. Believing in
herself when no one else did, she became an instant fame in the music
industry. And with the public eye on her, it wasn’t a surprise when
she attracted a male admirer who didn’t have her best interest at
heart. Another man who only craved to control and own her.

Now she
must face her fears, both known and unknown, in order to gain the
strength to battle the seemingly never-ending storm threatening her
very existence. Rising to face her foes is only the beginning to
taking back her power.

Lovelight
by B. Tolentino

Blind
but never felt unwanted, Melissa Chaplin lives peacefully in New
Hampshire with her mother. Wanting to make progress in her life, she
decides to take a step forward by applying for a part-time job only
to be rejected as soon as she receives the phone call she was so
excited about. Suddenly, the bruising pain of frustration of being
visually impaired envelopes her, causing her to take a huge leap of
faith by agreeing to be a patient to a doctor from Germany she meets
for the first time.

Running
from Ghosts by Cam Johns

Not
telling the whole truth is the same as lying. It turns out,
withholding secrets is more dangerous than being honest with the one
you love. At least that’s what Melissa has come to realize. Now
being forced to face her deceptions head on as the ghosts of her past
come back to haunt her - threatening the life she has finally built -
Melissa has to find a way to confront her dishonesty without losing
the love of her life.

Onus
by Sonya Jesus

Oliver: In onus memoria. I had it engraved on his
tombstone so that when I went to visit, I could remember Ben died
because I failed to protect him. In my onus, I let guilt corrode
through any attempt at happiness. I let the blame overwhelm me
because I deserved to be punished... He died because I wasn't
watching.

Melissa
by Davina Purnell

Oliver's
been coming to group sessions for a year and half now. I wish I could
say he's slowly getting better, but he's shown no progress and it
worries me. I don't know how to break through to him or if he even
wants me to, but I care about him too much not to try.

Till
Death by Bella Emy

Happily
Ever After.

That's what Mel thought she had found the day she met
Brad.

Now, married for years with their two children, Austin and
Brayden, Mel fears for their life. The man she once knew who had been
so loving, supporting and caring has turned into a drunk, alcoholic,
abusive husband and father, stopping at nothing to get his point
across.

Will Mel be able to overcome her dread of living huddled
up in a corner, fearing for her life and that of her sons, or will
Brad place his hands on her one last and final time?

Witch’s
Heart by Melanie
Rodriguez

Melissa is a sophomore at the prestigious Circe
Academy, a school that grooms only the finest of witches and
warlocks. She finds herself an outcast to most of her peers and
professors due to her half-human side. Wanting nothing more than to
be a fully-fledged witch, she enlists the help of the wily and
sarcastic spirit fox, Vic, who too has his own agenda. In order to
retrieve the lost half of magic that she needs to accomplish her
goal, Melissa must locate the human the old ritual demands she needs
and must steal their “heart.” When she realizes who that human
is, Melissa finds herself in a bind: does she complete her goal and
fulfill her pact with Vic or does she let the special human go and
continue to live her outcast life without the respect she deserves?

Choices
Made by Justina Luther

At
the age of 26 I, Melissa Leighton, thought I had my priorities right.
I worked hard, kept my eye on my goals, and loved my mom and twin
sister with all my heart. I broke my back to make us all proud and be
the first in my family to become a doctor. The funny thing about life
is, every choice we make changes something and the choices I made
threatened to change everything.

My
Shadow by Sheri Chapman

Melissa

Melissa is being watched. The innovative woman must determine if her
life in endanger before it’s too late…

From
the Ashes by Sarah Stein

How
far would you go to survive?

Blurb Blitz Final Notice by Van Fleisher

Final Notice

by Van Fleisher

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

This post is part of a virtual book tour organized by Goddess Fish Promotions. Van Fleisher will be awarding a $50 Amazon/BN GC to a randomly drawn winner via rafflecopter during the tour. Click on the tour banner to see the other stops on the tour.

GENRE: Thriller/Political Satire

The year is the very near future. A brilliant young doctor and mathematician, Vijay Patel, has invented a new health/sport watch that monitors blood chemistry so accurately, it can actually predict when someone will die – within 10, 20, or 30 days. The intention of this “Final Notice,” as it is called, is to allow people to get their affairs in order and reach out to loved ones before it’s too late. But when those notified have easy access to a gun, the result is sometimes lethal for more than just the watch-owner.



These are the stories of several people who receive their Final Notice and their very different reactions ... including a desire to get revenge with impunity. They range from an 89-year-old resident in a retirement home to a U.S. Senator...from a benevolent widow to a crass tycoon to a noted climate change scientist.



But in this fresh, fast-paced page-turner, their stories are all set against the all-too-recognizable backdrop of a guns-gone-wild America, and the relentless push by the NRA and their surrogate politicians to make guns even easier to acquire.



There is plenty of dark humor and political satire in FINAL NOTICE, as well as touching scenes and outright suspense. So expect to laugh out loud, dry some tears, and bite your nails (not necessarily in that order).

Read an Excerpt:




And sure enough, in 1.24 seconds, Trudi had 1,620,000 results. “Here it is. California law protects us if we shoot a burglar in our home. Still, it wouldn’t help if we didn’t hear them until they burst into the room. I can’t see either one of us having the presence of mind to reach for the gun, roll out of bed and blast away. What are you smiling at?”



“At the image of you doing just that!”



“Hey. I’ve been watching Angelina Jolie and I think I can manage the moves.”


About the Author:

“After 21 years with an airline, and 30 years in management consulting, I retired and found that my phone didn’t ring and the only emails I got were asking for money. So, since I was at my computer, I decided to write a novel.”



This is only half the story. (Van is notoriously modest.) The author was Director of International Marketing with TWA, and an International Management Consultant – taking him behind the closed doors of boardrooms and executive offices around the world. He knows how business works, which gives the slightly “sci-fi” premise of Final Notice a realistic feel. Moreover, his two careers led him to live abroad for much of his life. After growing up in New Jersey and Florida, where he never thought much further than the length of a football field, and going to college in New Mexico, he wound up living in England, Scotland and France, travelling frequently to the Middle East and Asia. He even spent a year living in India. And his first-hand experience with – and respect for – other cultures is apparent in this book.



“Final Notice is meant to highlight, my concerns with America’s handling of three important issues: gun control (not anti-gun), ageism and the importance of immigration. The book won’t fix these issues, but there are a number of great organizations with even greater people working on our behalf to right these wrongs. Proceeds from sales of Final Notice will help support those efforts.”
