Review: heart of the matter by Emily Giffin

Going to be a BIG hit in 2010! This book will have you going between 2 women, Tessa and Valerie. Tessa is a married mother of 2, not sure where she fits in this world. Motherhood is demanding, and being a wife of a surgeon who works long hours has left Tessa wondering if this is what it is supposed to be like. Then comes Valerie, a single mother, who has worked hard to be everything to her son. However their lives mix when an accident at a slumber party leaves Charlie scarred physically and his savior Dr. Russo enters.

However, Nick Russo and Valerie start spending too much time together and one thing leads to another.

It gets so good in this book, you can't possibly put it down the last hundred pages so you can find out if Nick chooses his family or Valerie and her son and what happens when you make such decisions.

Love, loss, anger, all these emotions are present. Find out what Tessa will do when Nick tells her the truth and find out how they all come to terms with the truth!

This read will be everywhere this year. Sure to bit a hit this summer! You shouldn't miss out!!!

Review: The Scent of Rain and Lightning by Nancy Pickard

The Scent of Rain and Lightning:

Memorable.. this book is so refreshing and makes you remember why you read books. Nothing like a good book to escape to. We go back and forth in time, just a bit but it flows so nice, you won't even notice, you will become so deep in Jody's life and the whole Linder family.

You will want to find out if Billy really did murder Hugh-Jay and Laurie, or perhaps it was one of the brothers on accident? Maybe Laurie did it, was a thought of mine.

Jody is a really believable, likable character and you will find yourself right alongside her.

Enjoy this one, it goes by quickly! I will be checking out Ms. Pickard's other books, she is a wonderful writer!

Make sure you get your hands on this book! You WON'T want to miss out. Nancy Pickard is a master storyteller and will have you guessing the entire time!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tons of good books!

Good March morning! Spring is here. Things have been trying to come up for awhile here now, and now they are showing some color!! It sure does smell like spring too!

Today, I am going to talk about one of my favorite all time authors. Adriana Trigiani. Her latest, Brava, Valentine hit the shelves last month. This book is the second in a series about a wonderful character you will fall in love with, Valentine. Valentine is single, and her grandmother is remarrying and moving to Italy to leave Valentine in charge of the family business of shoe making. However, a surprise that Alfred, Valentine's older know it all brother will be her partner.

Can she make it work and make the business grow at the same time? What happens with Valentine's love life? All these questions will be answered as Valentine uncovers a family secret.

Trigiani's writing leaves you begging for more and you will be waiting anxiously like me for the next part!!!!!!!!!!
