Review: The Ball Games Bundle

The Ball Games Bundle The Ball Games Bundle by Andie M. Long
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

*I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book*

This is the first that I have read anything by this author and I absolutely loved it. I laughed a lot during these stories as there were many humorous lines and scenes. I loved how they were linked together but could be read separately. I will be looking for more by this author in the future.

Review: Life's Gateway to Happiness

Life's Gateway to Happiness Life's Gateway to Happiness by Anne Stone
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

*I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book*

I absolutely loved this book. Sometimes we take the rocky road to love or like the title says "Life's Gateway to Happiness". Kelly is dealing with some serious issues that unfortunately affect many women in this world. Despite this, Kelly is able to overcome this obstacles and find a true and abiding love.

I love the characters and I can't believe I missed book one in a series with a jewel like this story. I will be buying a copy of book 1 and I can't wait to read it.

Melanie Moreland

New York Times/USA Today bestselling author Melanie Moreland, lives a happy and content life in a quiet area of Ontario with her beloved husband of twenty-seven-plus years and their rescue cat, Amber. Nothing means more to her than her friends and family, and she cherishes every moment spent with them.

While seriously addicted to coffee, and highly challenged with all things computer-related and technical, she relishes baking, cooking, and trying new recipes for people to sample. She loves to throw dinner parties, and also enjoys travelling, here and abroad, but finds coming home is always the best part of any trip.

Melanie delights in a good romance story with some bumps along the way, but is a true believer in happily ever after. When her head isn’t buried in a book, it is bent over a keyboard, furiously typing away as her characters dictate their creative storylines to her, often with a large glass of wine keeping her company.

Jacquelyn Ayres

I am a domestic engineer (born and raised in New Jersey) whose sole responsibility is guiding three young, impressionable kids into becoming phenomenal adults. This challenging yet rewarding work requires a lot of love (coffee), patience (wine), and determination (periodic exorcisms). I work all of this magic from the beautiful state of New Hampshire.

Before becoming a domestic goddess (not really), I spent over a decade working in the medical field, where I wore more hats than the queen.

I have loved the written word and the great escape it provides since I was a little girl. When I wasn't reading about people and the places they lived, I created my own characters and adventures. Finally, I started putting a pen to paper and allowing my characters to come to life. When I don't have a pen in hand, you can often find me laughing at the conversations my characters are having in my head.

Eva LeNoir grew up travelling with her parents to various countries in the world. Reading was her constant companion during her travels and her ability to adapt to different cultures fed her mind with endless possibilities. The characters swimming in her head are always from various horizons with a multitude of dreams and aspirations however they always have one thing in common: The women are strong and independent. A true believer in the female cause, Eva's wish is to portray the women in her books as the leaders. She sees them walking hand in hand with their partners and not be the sheepish followers of the male gender. But most of all, Eva LeNoir wants to offer her readers a moment of pleasure as they dive into the world of her mind's creation.
