Thank you to Sally Kilpatrick and Kensington Press for a copy of Oh My Stars .   I was given this copy in exchange for an honest review. We are back in the town of Ellery Tennessee for one of their traditional festivities their live nativity located in the Dollar General’s parking lot.   It is not your typical nativity.   Mary is a chain smoker.   Joseph is a reluctant doctor.   Oh and did I mention that Joseph also does farm work with one of the wise men.   Facebook         Twitter     Instagram “Like most things in Ellery, Tennessee, this year’s Drive Thru Nativity is a little unconventional. The Dollar General parking lot doubles as a Bethlehem stable, and widowed writer Ivy Long, who’s been roped into playing Mary, sure as heck isn’t a virgin. But then comes an unexpected development: a genuine, real-life baby left in the manger, with only a brief note. And somehow, in the kerfuffle that follows, Ivy find...

Please welcome Laura Heffernan to Writer’s Corner!   Today she is sharing with us  her next novel Reality Wedding .   The third novel in the Reality Star series .   How  many of you have watched the Bachelor, Bachelorette, or Survivor?

Sure, she and Justin met, had their first kiss, and got engaged with tape rolling, but  manufactured drama and ruthless producers have shaken them up more  times than she can count. With Jen's reality-themed bakery just getting  started and her brand-new lawyer fiancé in a pile of debt, they're a long way  from glitz and glamour, and that's fine by Jen. Until the Network calls and tells ...

Thank you to Mary Carter for sending me London From My Windows .   This is her latest novel.   It is truly a treat and a must read! It was not given to me for a review, but I am happy to share. Synopsis:   Ava has Agoraphobia which means that she can only be inside.   To go outside would mean taking Xanax and being blindfolded.   This condition resulted from the trauma of her father’s death.   What will happen when she has to deal with her Aunt Beverly’s death?   Why hasn’t she seen her Aunt Beverly since her father’s death?   So when she inherits her aunt’s apartment with some conditions and from the cute Barrister Jasper.   What could possibly be better?   Oh did I mention the drag queen who has to share the apartment with Ava! My Thoughts:   This is my second Mary Carter novel.   I have to say that I enjoyed London Through My Windows better than 3 Months in Florence .   I liked the flow and style of...
