Summer Reads Scavenger Hunt!

My top 5 summer reads and a ridiculously good give-away!

Oh, summer, beautiful, beautiful summer. When, for 8 fabulous weeks, I don't have to wake up early, be in traffic for an hour (one way, mind you), and deal with work. Instead, I get to sleep until the glorious hour of 7:45am, entertain a 3 year old, and attempt to get my house clean enough to counteract the insanity of the last 10 months.

But I digress!

Summer is also the time for reading, lots ofs reading, lots and lots of reading. The best is when it's a gorgeous day outside and I can sit on my deck, happily half-lost in a book while my kiddo plays with her water table or splashes in her kiddie pool (although if the pool is out, I usually end up in with her, it's hot out here!)

What's on my list for this summer you say? Here we go!


1) Hopeless in Hotlanta - Dawn Pendleton and Magan Vernon

2) 21 Days - Bethany Lopez (okay, so I've already read this one, but I want to read it again
when I can actually read for more than 10 minutes at a time)

3) Dancing with Deception - Andrea Heltsley (LOVED Dancing with Death)

4) The Dream Slayer - Jill Cooper

5) Break You - Jennifer Snyder

Devour Blitz!

Welcome to the blitz of Jill Cooper's new book, Devour! 

Life in Gloucester Massachusetts will never be the same.

Raging storms, fierce winds, shadows shifting in the breeze. Storms are nothing new for the fishing hamlet.

But darkness has come to claim the hearts and minds of those that stand in it too long. When that happens, love will be ripped from man leaving only violence, despair, and gnashing teeth.

Except for two. 

Roberta is a single mom, a waitress struggling to get through life after a rocky start tainted by murder and loss. Her heart yearns for Gabriel; a deputy living in the shadow of the chief. He's a battle weary soldier ready to settle down.

When the storm comes, when the murders start, it will be up to them to stop it before darkness isn't just an empty void.

Devour excerpt

The door chimed and I glanced over, fluffing my red curls slightly. He was right on time.

With Brooding wide shoulders, Deputy Gabriel Manning could fill out a uniform in all the right places. His hair was sandy brown, and soft like an ocean’s wave. My heart skipped a beat in the way it had when I knew Gabriel growing up, but what girl hadn’t had a crush on him?

“Deputy.” I said with a smile as I poured a cup of coffee into a Styrofoam cup and attached a lid. “Danish?”

“Not today. I have to watch the calories.” Gabriel smiled and patted his perfectly flat stomach. Perfectly perfect was more like it. On more than one occasion I had imagined him without his shirt. Always made me feel guilty, I wasn’t ready to move on, and he just wasn’t my friend.

He was Rick’s friend too.

That just made it a whole host of complicated and while I knew Gabriel should have been off-limits, nobody told my heart that.

He took the coffee and his fingers swept across mine gently, but I knew he did it on purpose. It made me blush, but my heart sprouted wings. He had been working up to something for a while, but I never said anything. Always pretended I didn’t notice. My heart shouted at me through a bullhorn to say or do anything, but the guilt stopped me.

Guilt like I was betraying my dead soon-to-be-husband with his closest friend. Meanwhile Rick was somewhere at the bottom of Gloucester Harbor, still never found.
