Amazon Blurb:  Love doesn’t live here, but no lie, Sunny wishes it did. In her eyes, love is the beautiful rise of each day and the seduction of the night. Unfortunately, Sunny has had her heart broken one too many times to believe she’ll find her life-changing, soul-shaking romance. Outgoing, with a sweet disposition, don’t get her misunderstood. She’s got a backbone and enough self-awareness to know finding herself takes precedence over who finds her. When she meets Wisdom, however, love is back on the brain and gunning for her heart. Wisdom doesn’t believe in love. Luckily, he had never fallen. A boss in the streets, he’s known as the Plug, and his only loyalty is to the Crip set he claims. As a man of few words, Wisdom is no-nonsense and never afraid to take action. Still, a drunken night ends with him giving a ray of sunshine a ride home and sparking a connection that has him reconsidering his stance on love and deciding to do anything to keep Sunny’s heart intact. When lines are

Book Review: Something Special by Tiffany Patterson

Amazon Blurb:   Gabriella I can’t stand him. Jamal Holmes. My best friend’s cousin. So what he may be able to help me finally make the move to get my business off the ground. He’s a pompous jerk and judgmental to boot. At least, those are the very excuses I tell myself to avoid his help at all costs. Now, if I could just get my silly body to stop reacting every time he’s near. If I could manage to control my erotic thoughts whenever he opens his mouth or tosses one of those goofy grins my way, everything would be just fine. Only if he didn’t look so damn good in everything he puts on… Jamal I can’t stand her. Gabriella, Gabby for short. She’s brash, snarky and seems to have it out for me. A damn she-devil. I don’t give a damn how great her legs look in the tight jeans and leggings she wears. Or, how appealing her mid-section appears in the halter tops she frequently dons. Nor do I care that her smooth, brown skin always looks good enough to taste. She’s a pain in the ass. At least, I t

Book Review: Stolen by a Billionaire by Miss J

Image
I recently read  Stolen By The Billionaire  by Miss J, and let me tell you, girl, it gave everything it was supposed to be given. I was engaged from the beginning. I found this book while scrolling thru TikTok and avoiding doing something productive like usual. I wanted to either smack the husband Oscar style or shoot him in the face from the beginning. Either would have worked for me at this point. Most times in a book, you want to find some kind of redeeming qualities about someone there were none, and I mean none. Even his friends were the only ones who didn't like him. I'm only on book one. I can't wait to see how he dies and trust me, y'all, this man needs to die. I have already woken my husband up out of a dead sleep, telling him how this man is trash and needs to die! Yall need to read this book, so we can talk about it!  Feel Free to comment and share with your friends! Feel Free to follow me @ Eliceivywrites.wordpress.com. Also, please follow me on Twitter http

Wine and Chat

One day while I was wanting a drink I started thinking about how I could get people to send me wine in the mail like it's my birthday. Then I got on the phone with my BFF and we decided we needed to drag other people into out drinking and gifting all under the gise of expanding our palates. So far it had definitely been an experience. The worst wine so far had been Mary J's. Now we all live us some Mary J Blige but my husband said it best when he said that wine tasted like bitterness and divorce!  Next month I will do better and give you a run down of everyone's favorite and I will pick great cheesy names to protect the guilty!  Feel Free to comment and share with your friends!

National Dress Up Your Pet Day gives you the opportunity to .... you guessed it......dress up your pet! Some pets like to get dressed up. Others, want nothing to do with it. This day is an opportunity to really dress up your pet(s). Make something for them to wear.  Or, go to a pet store and buy an outfit. It's winter, so something warm is best. Sorry, we don't have any ideas on how to dress up goldfish. Origin of National Dress Up Your Pet Day: This special day was created by pet style expert and animal advocate Colleen Paige. We found no reference to this day as a "National" day, which requires a presidential proclamation or an act of congress.
