My poor mom was always bombarded with my grouching and complaints whenever she presented me with another writing assignment, but she always believed I possessed the capability to write.

After a series of events which combined with an idea that wouldn't cease pestering me, I got over my anti-writing attitude, asked Mom for help on how to begin, and set about writing a story which I hope to someday publish (the first draft will never, ever see the light of day again. (less)

Review-Kate Landry Has a Plan

I turned to him, and he winked at me. Winked! We needed clear lines in place between us. We would not be flirty friends. We’d be friends, period. The sooner I made that distinction, the better.

This book had a cute premise, but it is not clean. It's touted as a "cozy, kisses-only romance", but it contains so much lust, innuendo, and untoward content that I must disagree with that description. And while this is considered closed door, just b ...more
Autumn at the Cat Cafe by Kathleen Fuller
"DNF at 38%. This book mentions attraction WAY too much. They think about how attractive the other is constantly and it’s annoying! Check each other out constantly. Imagine how things look under the clothes like his chest and her birthmark on her butt" Read more of this review »

Grace by Cat Cahill

A sweet and clean historical romance that is perfect for an afternoon read.
Madisyn Carlin is 8% done with Autumn at the Cat Cafe: 8% into the audiobook and there's not only profanity, but innuendo.

I thought this book was supposed to be clean. :\

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

“Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”
C.S. Lewis

“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.”
C.S. Lewis

“If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.”
