Back To Bataan Review

Back to Bataan Summary New York City, 1943. War is raging in Europe and the Pacific, while Jack Dalton is stuck attending Dutch Masters Day School. What Jack really wants is to enlist in the army, to fight... Everything changes when Coco, Jack's "fiancee," throws him over for one of his classmates. Jack sees red and does something drastic. Then he runs away. Hiding out in a nearby park, Jack joins ranks with a group of vagrants and is soon under the sway of a man called the Leader, an ex-convict who is as articulate and charismatic as he is dangerous. The Leader turns Jack's world upside down. To put things right, Jack must prove himself a braver soldier than he ever imagined. ** So, Back To Bataan. Not gonna lie, the summary and front cover had me thinking this book was going to be YA. However, the main character, Jack

Time Out

Hey guys, Just stopping by to let you know I am taking some time out this week. I'm closing down my Google Reader so I don't get tempted, BUT you have to promise to let me know if anything major happens this week because I don't wanna miss anything important! :p To my new followers - welcome, and sorry to run away so soon. Those who have been around longer will tell you that I don't go on blog vacation very often, but I have got some big things coming up in the next few months, so now is one of the few chances I'll get to take things easy! That said, you will probably see me around on Twitter and Facebook, and some of you will get emails about upcoming events but for the most part, I am going to be snuggled up, fighting off my impending cold and recharging! I do have a book review scheduled for later in the week - but that's all! :D Have a wonderful week! <3 br="br">

Genre Favourites Blogfest

Good morning! Yes, it's Monday again, but to shake away that horrible first day of the week feeling, we have Alex J. Cavanaugh's Genre Favourites Blogfest ! So, let me tell you about some of my favourites! Movies: It's all about the Rom Coms for me! I love those movies that make you laugh out loud, and have you rooting for the couple to get together. Some of my favourites include 27 Dresses, Love Actually, The Holiday ... okay, I could go on all day! Music: This is tougher for me because I like most music. I suppose if I had to, I would choose pop and classic rock because both of them always put a smile on my face! :D Books: Chicklit!! Pretty much the book version of Rom Com movies - and I love them for the same reasons. :D Guilty Pleasure:: The Rocky Horror Show! Hands down, this is possibly my favourite thing ever! I love the movie in all its cheesiness, I love the songs, and catching a stage version of the show is one of the best things Ive ever done! Th

Wednesday Musings - Cover Reveal Question and Game On Book 2 Release Date!

I wrote the title, than had to actually check I got the day right! It's one of those weeks where all the days seem to blur together! I've been kind of quiet lately in regards to what I've been working on - so I figured I'd catch you all up and then pose a question. Those of you who have been following me for a while will know that I plan to have the next book in the Game On series published in November. The official release date will be November 19th - and I think there will be another blog tour around that time too! I intend to plan it WAY in advance because with Christmas approaching - people usually get busy! Ideas are already forming - so I will keep you posted on that.

Six Sentence Sunday - A Look At My New Novella!

Hey guys! It's time for Six Sentence Sunday , and I thought I'd use it to give you a peek into my new novella - loosely titled "If I Let You Go." I don't know for sure when it will be released because it hasn't gone out to my CPs yet but if all goes well, it shouldn't be too long! Synopsis: Madison Connor is about to lose it. Her job, that is. For three years, she’s taken care of Dominic Hartley’s five year old daughter, Tilly, but her world is flipped on its head when Dominic tells her his latest promotion is taking him to New York. With Tilly having a meltdown over the move, Madison and Dominic get into a fight that changes the entire nature of their relationship, causing Madison to ask herself a big question. Can she let him go?  (Possibly not the official synopsis, but it will do for now!) Erica had asked me a million times. Madison, are you sure you’re just the child minder? He pays you a lot of money for doing hardly anything. Pushi
