Playing With Trouble by Joya Ryan

About this book:

Recently divorced, Laura Baughman is taking her life back. After a decade away, she’s returning to Yachats, Oregon—the small town she couldn’t wait to leave after graduation—to take over her late mother’s beloved flower shop. Yet once she arrives, Laura discovers the store has been neglected and her father has partnered in construction with Jake Lock. The once-scrawny high school band geek is now successful—and irresistibly sexy—and set to inherit her family’s business. That is, unless Laura can prove in the next thirty days that she has what it takes to run the company.

Despite the heat between Jake and Laura, romance is out of the question. After her last disastrous relationship, Laura has sworn off men—especially one bent on crushing her dreams. That’s just fine with Jake, who thinks the gorgeous blonde is a pain in the neck…though admittedly one he’d like to put his lips all over.

Jake has a proposal to mix business with pleasure. But when a deal goes south, Laura is ready to pack up and skip town all over again. Does he have what it takes to convince her to stay?

For this book 3 out of 5 stars.

I want to thank NetGalley for providing me with and ARC of this book for my honest review!

Now I will explain why I’m only giving 3 stars. Although I liked this book, I do have very conflicting feelings about it too. For me personally it wasn’t ‘full’. I wanted to know more about the MC and this book was so fast paced it was a bit too much, if you know what I mean. In some parts I just felt like some trying to tell me a long story but only having a limited time to do it. So I feel like the full potential of this story wasn’t explored enough. But you know, maybe that’s just me.

Knowing all that, I have still enjoyed this book very much. It’d hooked me from the start and I just couldn’t put it down. Well since my schedule is very hectic at the moment I was actually kept picking it up to be exact. Because I really, really, really wanted to finish it!

I would recommend this book as a free-time-don’t-think-too-much-about-it read. It probably won’t teach you much about life in general, but it is a fun and a steamy read and just great for a relaxing evening with a book.

Although after reading this I have started thinking more about my priorities in life, family, university and work. I might have learned something from it after all! J

REVIEW: FEVERSONG (Fever #9) by Karen Marie Moning

About this book: 

#1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Marie Moning returns with the epic conclusion to her pulse-pounding Fever series, where a world thrown into chaos grows more treacherous at every turn. As Mac, Barrons, Ryodan, and Jada struggle to restore control, enemies become allies, right and wrong cease to exist, and the lines between life and death, lust and love, disappear completely.

Black holes loom menacingly over Dublin, threatening to destroy the Earth. Yet the greatest danger is the one MacKayla Lane has unleashed from within: the Sinsar Dubh—a sentient book of unthinkable evil—has possessed her body and will stop at nothing in its insatiable quest for power.

The fate of Man and Fae rests on destroying the book and recovering the long-lost Song of Making, the sole magic that can repair the fragile fabric of the Earth. But to achieve these aims, sidhe-seers, the Nine, Seelie, and Unseelie must form unlikely alliances and make heart-wrenching choices. For Barrons and Jada, this means finding the Seelie Queen who alone can wield the mysterious song, negotiating with a lethal Unseelie prince hell-bent on ruling the Fae courts, and figuring out how to destroy the Sinsar Dubh while keeping Mac alive.

This time, there’s no gain without sacrifice, no pursuit without risk, no victory without irrevocable loss. In the battle for Mac’s soul, every decision exacts a tremendous price.

This book...

This Book.

THIS BOOK!!!

    The feels I have right now cannot be named.. So many feels it is ridiculous if you ask me. 

*blows nose*

    I remember the first time I've started this series. I remember how I was hooked from the start and how after I read all of the existing books I was mad and sad at the dear author for not producing them faster! 

    But now, I am not mad or sad because of that.. I'm mad and sad because the journey is over.. and what a journey it was! And although there will be at least one more, Dani's novel, maybe even more than just that one, and maybe with the same characters, I feel like this book wrapped it all up. Mainly I'm just sad now.. because it ended..

    But don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed this book and all of the books before this one tremendously! So much so that that is why I am so sad at the moment. I feel like there's been a huge dot placed at the end of this book.

    Now I know I wasn't always happy with the authors decisions, but I am happy I had the pleasure to read these books. They made me think and feel so much! 

    I am not gonna spoil you the opportunity to read this for yourself. Was there a HEA? Well you'll just have to read it to know. I might add that before reading this book one must have to be prepared to cry at times or at least feel sad. Because there can be no good if there's no bad... right?

    All in all I loved this book.. I am amazed once again with the authors ability to truly touch my heart. 

And I'm indescribably happy to have had the opportunity to know my beloved characters, to see them grow, to feel happy and sad and hurt with them, to cry with them and laugh with them. So again thank you Karen Marie Moning, you gave me so much I cannot describe. I've re-read this series so many times I can't count, and I know I will be re-reading it in the future as well.

“Things never stop going wrong. Life isn’t about waiting for peace to arrive, it’s about learning to thrive in the midst of war.” 

    So if you want my opinion on whether or not to read this book, you should know the answer by now. It is always Yes! Yes, because you read all of the books before this one, and if you haven't, what the hell are you waiting for??? And YES, because it is great and we all need few hundred pages of great once in awhile in our lives!

Peace, 

A.

Consequences by Aleatha Romig

Consequences by Aleatha Romig
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This time I took my time re-reading this book, even before finishing it I had a chance to see Behind Tony's Eyes, it made everything much more 'real'. I loved it, love the series and the characters.
The only flaw I could find with this book is that it took too long to get to the ending, it was all so confusing, but it was so worth it!!!
Have I said that I loved it already? I did :) I'll say that again - LOVED IT!!!!


More about the book :

Book #1 of the Bestselling Consequences Series:

Anthony Rawlings had a plan—to teach Claire Nichols to behave.

Claire Nichols had a plan—to survive!

In an unfamiliar bedroom within a luxurious mansion, Claire Nichols wakes to memories of a brutal abduction. All of her recollections have one common denominator, the man she just met—Anthony Rawlings. Unbeknownst to Claire, Anthony has had her in his sights for a long time. Every action has consequences—and his actions resulted in their chance meeting. 

Facing incomprehensible circumstances, Claire must learn to survive as she comes to terms with her new reality—every aspect of her livelihood is now dependent upon the tall, dark-haired, dark-eyed tycoon. Anthony may appear to the world as a prosperous, benevolent, kind businessman, but in reality Claire learns he is also a menacing, controlling captor with very strict rules: do as your told, public failure is not an option, and don’t divulge private information. Failure to follow these rules and more, are met with serious consequences.

In an effort to earn her freedom, Claire learns her lessons well and before long, she unknowingly captivates her captor. Anthony/ Tony reluctantly becomes enthralled with Claire’s beauty, resilience and determination. Their interaction instigates strong emotions, including—fear, anger, love, and lust—as their journey flows into uncharted waters of intrigue and passion. 

From the opening criminal abduction, through the twists and turns, to the unlikely romantic thrills, the suspense climaxes as Aleatha Romig utilizes vivid detail, allowing this novel to unfold like a movie. 

Can you put the pieces of the puzzle together? Claire Nichols abduction wasn’t a random act—did she learn her lessons well enough? Will these unlikely lovers remain true--or will she learn the truth before it’s too late?

It is not a standalone book and should not be read as such.

This companion was written to explore the thoughts and motivations of Anthony Rawlings, the man behind the consequences. It was not intended as a total rewrite of Consequences, but meant to enhance the reader’s understanding.

—Aleatha Romig CONVICTED

It was a long and painful acquisition—especially from Behind His Eyes!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Read from January 14 to 15, 2014

Oh wow!
Though my first thought when I saw words 'The End' was NOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I need more!!! Tony's POV? There can never be enough of that!!!

I Hate to Love him and I Love to Hate him! <- that describes my emotions towards him the best at the moment..

Wow, I can't seem to stop repeating that! I didn't know what to expect.. cause seriously, how can you expect something from him? Actually you can expect everything and nothing at the same time! That's Anthony Rawlings, polished on the outside - totally unpredictable inside!

And since the inside of my head feel suspiciously like scrambled eggs at the moment I don't think I can write a worthy review for this wonderful book!

I'd just start babbling ( like right now ) and fangirling, I may even start crying and that's never a good idea.

So let's all pray for the next reading companion to come along fast ( pretty please Aleatha!!!), so I'd be able to compose myself a little and live my life again. Or not. Actually keep them coming, more books, more POV's! I'd even like to read it from Catherine's POV.. I'm just kidding, I'd stab the bitch!

Anyway, me done.
Peace,
A.

P.S. In case I forgot to mention, this Book is AWESOME! If you haven't yet, you should check The Consequences series by Aleatha Romig .  This is the 4th book. LOVE YOU ALEATHA!

P.P.S. yup, like I said.. I started fangirling.. here goes the waterworks!

Review: Dreamfever (Fever #4) by Karen Marie Moning

Dreamfever (Fever #4)

blurb:
He has stolen her past, but MacKayla will never allow her sister’s murderer to take her future. Yet even the uniquely gifted sidhe-seer is no match for the Lord Master, who has unleashed an insatiable sexual craving that consumes Mac’s every thought—and thrusts her into the seductive realm of two very dangerous men, both of whom she desires but dares not trust. 

As the enigmatic Jericho Barrons and the sensual Fae prince V’lane vie for her body and soul, as cryptic entries from her sister’s diary mysteriously appear and the power of the Dark Book weaves its annihilating path through the city, Mac’s greatest enemy delivers a final challenge.…

It’s an invitation Mac cannot refuse, one that sends her racing home to Georgia, where an even darker threat awaits. With her parents missing and the lives of her loved ones under siege, Mac is about to come face-to-face with a soul-shattering truth—about herself and her sister, about Jericho Barrons…and about the world she thought she knew.

“I have a black sense of humor. You try living my life, see what color yours turns.” 

Well, we can't live your life, but we can definitely read about it and I'm pretty sure everyone understands what you mean.

This book was emotional roller-coaster.. 

From low to high, from high to medium and from there everything went to hell.

I knew what was coming, It's not my first time reading this and still.. I wasn't ready for the ending..

I wasn't ready for a lot of things.

I was so proud of Mac, she went trough soo much! And still life doesn't make it easy for her..

“There’s only one question that matters, Ms. Lane, and it’s the one you never get around to asking. People are capable of varying degrees of truth. The majority spend their entire lives fabricating an elaborate skein of lies, immersing themselves in the faith of bad faith, doing whatever it takes to feel safe. The person who truly lives has precious few moments of safety, learns to thrive in any kind of storm. It’s the truth you can stare down stone-cold that makes you what you are. Weak or strong. Live or die. Prove yourself. How much truth can you take, Ms. Lane?”

And the truths, all kinds of truths keeps coming out in this book. I remember reading this the first time.. huh, It was too much for me. Too much information. But the ride is worth it. It is soo worth it! 

“Good and evil are merely opposite sides of a coin. Get tossed in the air enough, it's easy to come down on the wrong side.” 

So lets see how Mac will land. The ending of this book leave us hanging. With no air for our lungs. With almost no hope and with thousands of unanswered questions.

But they will be answered, I promise. Well.. at least some of it will :))

At the ending I kept remembering Barrons' words... over and over in my head...

“See me when you look at me.” 

And so she did...

Peace,

A.

Faefever (Fever #3) by Karen Marie Moning

Blurb:

'He calls me his Queen of the Night. I’d die for him. I’d kill for him, too'.When MacKayla Lane receives a torn page from her dead sister’s journal, she is stunned by Alina’s desperate words. And now MacKayla knows that her sister’s killer is close. But evil is closer. And suddenly the sidhe-seer is on the hunt: For answers. For revenge. And for an ancient book of dark magic so evil, it corrupts anyone who touches it.

Mac’s quest for the Sinsar Dubh takes her into the mean, shape-shifting streets of Dublin, with a suspicious cop on her tail. Forced into a dangerous triangle of alliance with V’lane, an insatiable Fae prince of lethally erotic tastes, and Jericho Barrons, a man of primal desires and untold secrets, Mac is soon locked in a battle for her body, mind, and soul. 

As All Hallows’ Eve approaches and the city descends into chaos, as a shocking truth about the Dark Book is uncovered, not even Mac can prevent a deadly race of immortals from shattering the walls between worlds—with devastating consequences.…

~*~*~*~*~*~

I always have this funny feeling in my stomach when I read this book.

I even had it when I read it the first time. It was my 4th now.
Still - same hollow, sinking feeling.
Those who read this book will understand why.

From the start I hated Mac. Maybe hate is to strong a word for it, but I disliked her greatly.
She was spoiled and lazy.. But now I see her in a totally different light.

When you read paranormal, fantasy or any similar kind of book,you want a heroine to be strong. You want her to kick ass and take no shit from other. You want her independent. You don't want her to be weak.
However, I find myself liking Mac more and more every time I read this series. Actually if you think about it, this way, Mac's way is better.
She was just a small town southern belle. Spoiled to no end, loved by her family and her life was great. Until suddenly it wasn't anymore.

What would you expect from her? To become strong overnight because she has to? To just know martial arts without training, because there are bad guys and she has to be a kick-ass? Sounds great, but very unreal-world like.
This time re-reading KMM Fever series I was looking for those subtle changes in her, and I found it.
She went from 'meh' to 'oh wow' in few months. Few very hard months for her. Oh, and how have she changed!

Well the how's and why's I'll leave for you to figure out yourself. :)

And this 3rd book. Ha, she became a player herself. She used to be a victim.

Nope! Not anymore!

Yeah, yeah.. I know what you think.. "but what about the ending of this book?"

What about it?

It was a great ending, a beautiful cliffhanger. I'd be suicidal if not for knowing I have the next book of this series safely in my Kindle :)

Anyway.. The Mac says it, and the author repeats it. That this is a story about light. And I actually starting to see it.

Rereading a book is great, every time it's different. A lot depends on your mood while reading, so you're able to see it from different perspective every time!

Yup, that's it for now

Peace,
Queen A.

Review: Onyx (Lux Novel) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Blurb:

Being connected to Daemon Black sucks…
Thanks to his alien mojo, Daemon’s determined to prove what he feels for me is more than a product of our bizarro connection. So I’ve sworn him off, even though he’s running more hot than cold these days. But we’ve got bigger problems.
Something worse than the Arum has come to town….
The Department of Defense are here. If they ever find out what Daemon can do and that we're linked, I’m a goner. So is he. And there's this new boy in school who’s got a secret of his own. He knows what’s happened to me and he can help, but to do so, I have to lie to Daemon and stay away from him. Like that's possible. Against all common sense, I'm falling for Daemon. Hard.
But then everything changes…
I’ve seen someone who shouldn’t be alive. And I have to tell Daemon, even though I know he’s never going to stop searching until he gets the truth. What happened to his brother? Who betrayed him? And what does the DOD want from them—from me?
No one is who they seem. And not everyone will survive the lies….

~*~*~*~*~*~

\*/ --- MAJOR SPOILERS --- \*/

****** Beware! ******






What the hell??????

It's like she knocked her head too hard too many times, in a row!!!!!

I was never, NEVER so mad at the heroine.

All that babbling about having feelings for Daemon are there just because of the bond, being spineless, clueless, soo stupid and soo naive all the time!
Finishing this book was a real challenge! 
I wanted to scream and scream my frustration out while reading this.. 
I'm actually surprised there's such a good rating..
It's well written, and there's all kinds of people here, with different tastes and blah blah.. but my GOD!!!!!!!

Because of her everything went to shit practically from the start. 
Why couldn't they just get together and then face the enemy? 
Why did they have to battle with each other AND with the enemy and then get together at the MOST INAPPROPRIATE moment in the book?? When because of her Adam got killed.
But suddenly everyone understands and they're not mad at her. Of course, how can you be mad at a COMPLETE IDIOT!!!!!!???????

From the start I smelled something fishy about Bobby, or is it Boris? Oh right it's Flake, I mean Blake.... I loved you Daemon so much for being an asshole with him!
How can she not get suspicious about him? To be so stupid and trust a person you don't really know, and NOT trust a person you already got to know, and no matter what kind of asshat he could be, he saved your life numerous times and obviously cares for you!!!!
But nooo... not you.... you just close your eyes Katy .. 
If not for you, this book could have been so awesome!!!! This whole series could have been one of my favorites!
But I just CAN'T forgive your idiocy. You were selfish, and because of you, because you haven't asked for help or advise when you could have, people and not just people got killed or imprisoned...

I wish, I wish I could slap you out of it. But I heard that book 3 is even worse.

Now people who read my reviews probably noticed that I try, really try to say something good about the book, even if I haven't loved it.
I wish I could say more nice things about this one too, the problem is, everything paled in a bright light of Katy


Peace, A.

Obsession by Jennifer L. Armentrout

blurb:

This is a stand alone novel that is an adult spin-off of the Lux Series You do not need to read a Lux book to read Obsession and vice versa.

He’s arrogant, domineering, and... To. Die. For.

Hunter is a ruthless killer. And the Department of Defense has him firmly in their grasp, which usually doesn’t chafe too badly because he gets to kill bad guys. Most of the time he enjoys his job. That is, until he’s saddled with something he’s never had to do before: protect a human from his mortal enemy.

Serena Cross didn’t believe her best friend when she claimed to have seen the son of a powerful senator turn into something... unnatural. Who would? But then she witnesses her friend’s murder at the hands of what can only be an alien, thrusting her into a world that will kill to protect their secret.

Hunter stirs Serena’s temper and her lust despite their differences. Soon he’s doing the unthinkable—breaking the rules he’s lived by, going against the government to keep Serena safe. But are the aliens and the government the biggest threats to Serena’s life… or is it Hunter?

~*~*~*~*~*~

Easy going, Light but sensually Dark read that I recommend to everybody! 

I give 4 solid stars to this book.

And not just because in my opinion it was better in a way, then Lux series.

Although it's not fair to compare these books, mainly because it's incomparable.

Yes the tone and the style is there. Author writes it with light humor and I love that.

So although it wasn't world shattering and completely mind blowing and powerful like some books on my favorites list, this is definitely A MUST READ material.

After all the frustration I went through during my introduction into this word full of aliens, thanks to Lux series.Not.

I found this to be refreshing and very pleasing.

Of course there are flaws ... That insta-love is getting old and I wish authors would just stop with it.

But the chemistry between those two... HOLY HOTNESS!!!!! WOW! It was worth every bitchy feeling and comment I had and thought of when reading "Onyx"...

Peace, A.

Review: Iron Kissed by Patricia Briggs

( Mercy Thompson #3 )

blurb:

'I could smell her fear, and it satisfied something deep inside me that had been writhing under her cool, superior gaze. I curled my upper lip so she could get a good look at my sharp teeth. I might only weigh thirty or so pounds in my coyote shape, but I was a predator...'

Mechanic Mercy Thompson can shift her shape - but not her loyalty. When her former boss and mentor is arrested for murder and left to rot behind bars by his own kind, it's up to Mercy to clear his name, whether he wants her to or not.

Mercy's loyalty is under pressure from other directions, too. Werewolves are not known for their patience, and if Mercy can't decide between the two she cares for, Sam and Adam may make the choice for her...

~*~*~*~*~*~

There might be some spoilers so consider if you really wanna read this.

I think this one really is the best out of 3.
However.. I'm getting tired of the event pattern.. For most of the book there's nothing happening, then nearing the end there's this big great event that explains everything and usually there are some big revelations and of course somebody gets hurt. Usually Mercy. Then there's a lull again, and by the ending of the book there's one more big event. 


What I hate, is how cold Mercy looks.
Sure she has feelings and blah blah. But I don't feel it. If she gets hurts, it's like nothing. Physically or emotionally, I just don't believe her. 
It's like someone retelling her story to me, without emotions and the like. I'd like to be able to feel what she's feeling, to truly believe that she's 'real'. 
It's almost like reading a history book. Cold facts.
'She went there because we needed to find that thing. That thing wasn't there, we went home.'
Maybe I'm not making any sense, but I'm just sharing my thoughts about this, so no hate mail please.
I understand it's hard to build a world with so many supernaturals in it, so much action and still keep the emotions in it. But it's possible, Kate Daniels is the best example. 
There are too many things I must assume, which I rather read about. Feel more connected to characters.

So yeah.. not super excited about this, but I need to read the next book. I 'heard' it get's better.

We'll see I guess :)

Peace,
A.

Review: Fallen Too Far by Abbi Glines

( Too Far #1 )

blurb:

To want what you’re not supposed to have…

She is only nineteen.

She is his new stepfather’s daughter. 

She is still naïve and innocent due to spending the last three years taking care of her sick mother. 

But for twenty-four year old Rush Finlay, she is the only thing that has ever been off limits. His famous father’s guilt money, his mother’s desperation to win his love, and his charm are the three reasons he has never been told no.

Blaire Wynn left her small farmhouse in Alabama, after her mother passed away, to move in with her father and his new wife in their sprawling beach house along the Florida gulf coast. She isn’t prepared for the lifestyle change and she knows she’ll never fit into this world. Then there is her sexy stepbrother who her father leaves her with for the summer while he runs off to Paris with his wife. Rush is as spoiled as he is gorgeous. He is also getting under her skin. She knows he is anything but good for her and that he’ll never be faithful to anyone. He is jaded and has secrets Blaire knows she may never uncover but even knowing all of that…

Blaire just may have fallen too far.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Read from June 29 to 30, 2013

First of all let me just gush about the cover first!!! I really haven't know that it would show them off so perfectly! It's just like I imagine them to be!!
Great work on this!!! Whoever did it, I salute them with this victory!

So lets get to this book.

I don't think I've read anything by dear Abbi Glines until now, not that I didn't want to. But lets be real, do you see how many books I have in my TBR list? And I want to read All of them. And then there's those that I haven't found yet, but will be in the same pile soon.
So I ask my forgiveness, I hope the author will grant me one. Cause I freakin' LOVED THIS BOOK!!!!! 



From the first pages I couldn't stop laughing! I think the innocence of the heroine and the stubbornness stole me away! Maybe she's quiet but she's not weak!
And that is why I was so drawn to this book.
The hero is another douchebag. At least author let us believe that for awhile. And he is.
'Cause I was soo mad at him for how he treated Blaire from the start!! I thought I'd pull my own gun on him! ( I don't have one, but that's not the case lol)
Anyway, as the story continued I became really protective of our heroine. Some people may call her spineless or stupid.
But she's not. Yes she's naive and very sweet, but in her, it's a huge plus! I really never thought someone could pull that off ( talking about the author). Usually, when I read about someone like that I feel mad. I hate how weak woman can be when a man is in the picture.
But this time it was different. That girl went through so much, and life haven't decided yet to leave her be. But she kept it together, she kept standing and she kept living!
I have so much respect for this character I'm really in awe!

I don't wanna spoil you with revealing too much, cause you need to experience this for yourself.
This is a sweet and breathtakingly beautiful story about a young man an a woman who want so many things.. and only time show what will happen next.

I recommend this book to all NA and romance lovers. This book is amazing and I wanna share it with everyone!

I'm off to reading a second book!

Peace
A.

Review: The Mistress by Tiffany Reisz

( The Original Sinners #4 )

blurb:

The final book in The Original Sinners Series - The Red Years.

There's punishment-and then there's vengeance.

Nora Sutherlin is being held, bound and naked. Under different circumstances, she would enjoy the situation immensely, but her captor isn't interested in play. Or pity.

As the reality of her impending peril unfolds, Nora becomes Scheherazade, buying each hour of her life with stories-sensual tales of Søren, Kingsley and Wesley, each of whom has tempted and tested and tortured her in his own way. This, Nora realizes, is her life: nothing so simple, so vanilla, as a mere love triangle for her. It's a knot in a silken cord, a tangled mass of longings of the body and the heart and the mind. And it may unravel at any moment.

But in Nora's world, no one is ever truly powerless-a cadre of her friends, protectors and lovers stands ready to do anything to save her, even when the only certainty seems to be sacrifice and heartbreak....

~*~*~*~*~*~

Have you ever loved someone so much, that you could die for him, her?

And have you ever loved someone so badly that you could live for them? 
Fight for that love?

I can proudly say that I did, and still do! We fight everyday.

That's why this book felt so close to my heart, I was bawling my eyes out every 15 pages or so.

This was beautiful! The love in this book is BEAUTIFUL! And it's more then that - it's amazing, bewildering both breathtaking and thrilling! 
I'd like to believe that love like this exist not only in novels, I'd like to believe that I have it, too.

'The Mistress' left me feeling... 
I just keep feeling! Something.. EVERYTHING!

I went through so much with this read. I was furious and angry, I was sad and happy, I was crying and I was laughing! But the joy I felt in the end overpowered everything else!

This was a story of people who have lost and found one another, who've left an imprint deep inside of me. 
I always cherish the most those books, that made me feel the strongest emotions and deepest feelings. 'Cause I know that I'll always find friends in them, whenever I need it.

Nora Sutherlin will tell you a story, and You will listen. And if you do, you'll find the biggest joy in life, in the world!
Do you know what's that?

It's Love...


Peace, 
Mistress A.
