MY REVIEW
If you need a
starting point to get your financial health on the right track, then this book
is for you. I like the way the author has laid it out step by step on what to
do. He starts with laying a good foundation. This makes perfect sense to me.
Without a stable foundation, everything else is destined to fail. More
significantly, he makes you look inside yourself to find what is important to
you specifically. Once you figure that out, you will have more clarity of your
end goals.
I agree with
the author that you must figure out where you are, before you can know where
you are going. Once you know that, you will be in a better position to reach
your end game. I also agree that you should always have goals. Otherwise there
is nothing to push you in order to reach your financial destination. I like
that there were communication hints. They will help to keep everything on a
positive flow when discussing finances with anyone who also makes relevant
decisions in your finances. That is a huge help. Although I didn’t get a lot
out of the activities, others might. And I know I’ll be using some of the
websites listed at the end of the book.

Read, Write, Love at Seaside Tour and Giveaway
NEW RELEASE........
Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers features a group of fun, flirty, and emotional friends who gather each summer at their Cape Cod cottages. They're sassy, flawed, and so easy to relate to, you'll be begging to enter their circle of friends! All books can be read as stand-alone novels.
Read, Write, Love at Seaside by Addison Cole is the sweet edition of New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster's steamy romance novel Read, Write, Love. The stories and characters remain the same, and convey all of the passion you expect between two people in love, without any explicit scenes or harsh language.
In Read, Write, Love at Seaside...
Bestselling author Kurt Remington lives to write. He spends twelve hours a day in front of his computer, rarely leaving the seclusion of his beach-front property, where he’s come to finish his latest thriller — that is, until free-spirited Leanna Bray nearly drowns in the ocean trying to save her dog. Kurt’s best-laid plans are shot to hell when he comes to their rescue. Kurt’s as irritated as he is intrigued by the sexy, hot mess of a woman who lives life on a whim, forgets everything, and doesn’t even know the definition of the word organized.
Leanna’s come to the Cape hoping to find a fulfilling career in the jam-making business, and until she figures out her own life, a man is not on the menu. But Leanna can’t get the six-two, deliciously muscled and tragically neat Kurt out of her mind. She tells herself she’s just stopping by to say thank you, but the heart-warming afternoon sparks an emotional and unexpectedly sweet ride as Kurt and Leanna test the powers of Chemistry 101: Opposites Attract.

Dreaming at Seaside (Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers Book 2)
Bella Abbascia has returned to Seaside Cottages in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, as she does every summer. Only this year, Bella has more on her mind than sunbathing and skinny-dipping with her girlfriends. She’s quit her job, put her house on the market, and sworn off relationships while she builds a new life in her favorite place on earth. That is, until good-time Bella’s prank takes a bad turn and a handsome police officer appears on the scene.
Single father and police officer Caden Grant left Boston with his fourteen-year-old son, Evan, after his partner was killed in the line of duty. He hopes to find a safer life in the small resort town of Wellfleet, and when he meets Bella during a night patrol shift, he realizes he’s found the one thing he’d never allowed himself to hope for—or even realized he was missing.
After fourteen years of focusing solely on his son, Caden cannot resist the intense attraction he feels toward beautiful Bella, and Bella’s powerless to fight the heat of their budding romance. But starting over proves more difficult than either of them imagined, and when Evan gets mixed up with the wrong kids, Caden’s loyalty is put to the test. Will he give up everything to protect his son—even Bella?

Hearts at Seaside (Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers Book 3)
Jenna Ward is vivacious, spontaneous, and confident—except when she’s around the man who stole her heart years earlier, strikingly handsome, quiet, and reliable Pete Lacroux. After years of trying to get his attention and overwhelmed from dealing with her mother’s new cougar lifestyle, Jenna’s giving up on Peter—and is ready to explore other men.
As the eldest of five siblings, with an alcoholic father to care for, boat craftsman Pete Lacroux always does the right thing and has no time for a real relationship. He’s looking forward to seeing his friend Jenna, a welcome distraction who’s so sexy and painfully shy that she equally entertains and confuses him.
When Jenna picks up a hard-bodied construction worker, jealousy ignites Pete’s true feelings, and he’s unable to ignore the desires for Jenna he never realized he had. But Pete’s not the quiet guy he appears to be, and his life is anything but conducive to a relationship. Can Jenna handle the real Pete Lacroux—the most alpha male she’s ever seen—or will she crack under pressure? And can Pete reclaim the life he once had without tearing apart his family?

Sunsets at Seaside (Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers Book 4)
Jessica Ayers has lived a sheltered life with little more than cello lessons and practices taking up her day. Now a member of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, she escapes the prim and proper symphony to vacation in the Seaside community in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, to determine if she is living life to the fullest or missing it altogether.
For the first time since developing the second largest search engine in the world, billionaire Jamie Reed is taking the summer off. He plans to work from the Cape and spend time with his elderly grandmother—and falling in love is not in his plans.
From the moment Jamie and Jessica meet, the attraction is white-hot. Once-overly-focused Jamie can think of little else than sweet, smart, and alluring Jessica, and Jessica discovers a side of herself she never knew existed. But when Jamie’s business encounters trouble and his attorney and best friend intervenes, he proves that the brown-haired beauty is too distracting for Jamie. To make matters worse, it appears that Jessica might not be who she says she is, turning Jamie’s life—and his heart—upside down. In a world where personal information is always one click away, Jamie must decide if he should trust his heart or watch the woman he loves walk away.

MY REVIEW
Kurt Remington
has a goal to be the best thriller writer there is. Leanna Bray is a free
spirit with no boundaries. When Kurt saves Leanna and her rebel pooch Pepper
from drowning in the ocean, it is perfect order meets chaos. Kurt was basically
a recluse who did nothing but write novels. Leanna was still trying to find her
niche, with her latest endeavor being jelly and jam making. How could Kurt let
this untamed free spirit into his life? And can Leanna’s chaotic persona be
tamed?
People like
Leanna are always fun to be around, and draw you in with that type of
personality. I loved these two characters together. It was so fun watching them
acclimate to each other’s surroundings. The Seaside girls themselves were
perfect mimics of Leanna too. No wonder they were all best of friends. That’s a
community I would love to have grown up in.

The Blue Unicorn's Journey To Osm Review
The Blue Unicorn's Journey To Osm Illustrated Book: Full Color Illustrations
By Sybrina Durant
![The Blue Unicorn's Journey To Osm Illustrated Book: Full Color Illustrations - JPGs Only by [Durant, Sybrina]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61aqRQ8GTxL.jpg)
Everybody loves unicorns! OK maybe they don't but for those who do, they will love this story about a little unicorn who was born into a tribe of magical, metal horned unicorns. The little guy has no magic and he has no metal but somehow he must save the tribe from an evil sorcerer. Read the book to find out if he can do it.
“The metal horned unicorns are doomed!” That’s what Lauda Lead Horn wailed when she first saw the tribe’s new savior. OK, so his horn was not metal. . .and he did not have a magic power. . .and he was really a puny little runt. But doomed? Were things really that bad?
Well, things were pretty bad in the land of MarBryn. Magh, an evil sorcerer utilized unicorn horns and hooves to create his magical potions and spells. Those he used, to increase his power and to conquer everyone in his path. All of the unicorns from the Tribe of the Metal Horn were now gone . . . except for twelve survivors.
Before the blue unicorn was born, Numen told Alumna, the aluminum-horned oracle, that he had a plan to bring the tribe back home to Unimaise. His prophecy was, “Only the blue unicorn can join with the Moon-Star. Until then, no new unicorns will be born.” Blue was the last unicorn born. Twenty years later, his horn was still covered with a plain blue colored hide. There was not a glint of metal to be seen on it or his hooves. And he still didn’t have any magic. But he was no longer scrawny and he had his wits. Though no one else in the tribe thought he had a chance, Blue felt ready to make Magh pay for his evil deeds. And he went off to do it alone. That was Blue’s first mistake. If the entire tribe was not standing horn-tip to horn-tip at the proper time and the exact place to help usher the Moon-Star Spirit into Blue’s horn, he would die. Then, the rest of the tribe would really be doomed.
Readers will follow along two journey paths in this book. Blue is joined in his travels by his mentor Gaiso, the Stag and his friend, Girasol the Firebird as they try to find their way across a danger-filled MarBryn to Muzika Woods. The rest of Blue’s tribe is forced to follow another route due to Nix Nickle Horn’s unfortunate incident with a Manticore. Nix, the great unicorn defender must safely lead the way for Ghel, the Golden-Horned unicorn; Silubhra Silver Horn; Cornum the Brass-Horned unicorn; Steel Horned Style; Cuprum the Copper-Horned unicorn; Tin-Horned Tinam; Dr. Zinko; Iown the Iron-Horned unicorn and the others in an action packed adventure to their destination in Muzika Woods. Both journey paths converge there in the Nebulium Circle.

MY REVIEW
When Blue was
born, he was supposed to be the savior. The oracle had prophesied it
beforehand. All of the unicorns in the land of MarBryn had horns of some type
of metal and each one had their own magic. But when Blue was born, his horn was
only a plain blue hide. With no one to fulfill the prophesy, no more unicorns
would be born. Twenty years later, the Numen relayed to the oracle the path
that Blue must take, to save the tribe and bring them back to their homeland of
Unimaise. But first he must confront the evil sorcerer Magh.
The plot was
interesting and easy to follow. I liked the human qualities of the unicorns. It
made their journey unique in that they were all family to each other. The
characters that Blue meets on his adventure were also unique and loveable. I
enjoyed all of the illustrations throughout the story. They were beautifully
done. They also helped to visualize each creature after reading their
descriptions. My favorite part of the book has to be when Blue was going
through the rainbow land. The descriptions truly described a rainbow. I don’t
think you have to be a child to enjoy this story.

Manroot Book Review
Manroot
By Anne Steinberg
![Manroot by [Steinberg, Anne J.]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51-Ib6FgvKL.jpg)
In the spring of 1939, Katherine Sheahan and her father, the taciturn Irishman Jesse, are looking for work in the isolated tourist town of Castlewood, Missouri, which offers bathing, gambling and adultery. Jesse gets a job as handyman and Katherine as maid at a small hotel. Jesse drinks and neglects his work and eventually disappears, abandoning his daughter. Katherine discovers the ginseng, the manroot, and other secrets of the foothills; she discovers herself as a natural healer who has inherited this gift from her Navajo Indian mother. She also has a special but unwelcome gift. She can communicate with spirits.
Among the hotel's regular clientele is Judge William Reardon, a local hero who metes out justice by day, then drinks the foul taste away at night. Escaping his sterile marriage, he becomes captivated by Katherine. He is like a man reborn. Theirs is a union of like-minded souls, but a dangerous dark magic is released. Can their love survive?
A powerful, haunting novel that explores the powerful themes of identity and destiny, love everlasting and its brutal twin, violence.

MY REVIEW
Katherine was
born under a bad star. She lost her mother to madness when she was a small
child, so she was raised by her father, Jesse. Her grandmother, who was a
full-blooded Navajo, instilled in her how to be one with nature. Katherine and
her father moved around a lot, mainly because of his drinking and not being
able to keep a job. When they happen upon work at a hotel in Castlewood,
Katherine was more than happy to put up with the gruff cook and learn
everything she could from her. Katherine loved working there and hoped to never
leave. But how long will it last before Jesse’s drinking is discovered?
This book had a
good plot with well-rounded characters. It started a little slow but picked up
pretty quick. I liked how the natural ways of the Navajo were woven throughout.
It was easy to feel Katherine’s loneliness and her feelings of betrayal. Even
though she never felt sorry for herself, I couldn’t help but feel it for her. I
could feel her misery as well. This was an interesting story, and I loved the
spooky elements scattered throughout. I believe that there are things beyond
our understanding, and this book was quick to emphasize that.
