Book Blurb:
When Elijah Elliot leaves a cushy job at a prestigious Atlanta advertising firm to strike out on his own, he recruits co-worker Beatrix London as his business partner. She’s smart, capable and, turns out, mouth-wateringly tempting. Now Eli has to keep his hands to himself, despite the very vivid daydreams he has involving his deliciously attentive associate. Daydreams that involve less administrative duties and more “yes, sirs” – less clothing and much more personal “activity reports”.
Bea’s attention to detail has only part to do with her work ethic. From the moment she first laid eyes on Elijah, Bea has had …

This week, I thought it would be nice to travel to the North West of the United States. I’ve picked up a few books over the last six months that prominently feature this area. In Clive Cussler’s The Wrecker, there’s a madman attempting to tear down the Cascade Canyon Bridge. In The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting, the main character, Violet, lives in small town Washington but has the Cascade Range as a constant backdrop in her tale. And, of course, in The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer, we start off in Seattle but ultimately end up in Forks, Washington, chasing after Bella swan et al. (I think, technically, Forks is within the Olympic Mountain Range, but these areas are so close together that I’ve included them both here.)
I’ve always been fascinated …

Growing up, writing was a chance to get all the words in my head out on paper, because no voice could keep up with my runaway brain. I liked the puzzle that writing presented, fitting the different words together in a way that sounded pleasing, but still got my point across. And it turned out that while my humor was probably inappropriate in say, a Sunday School setting, it was pretty darn funny on paper. The …
