Head strong, Cassie McPherson has a problem. She needs a date for a Christmas party and she needs one quick. So what’s a girl to do? Call up an escort service of course. Why not? Cassie has before and the experience wasn’t so bad. In fact, it was a perfect way to fool her family, especially her brothers, who keep a close eye on their sister and the men in her life. But when Cassie runs into her striking date, she is stunned by her reaction to the gorgeous hunk. Always one to control every situation, Cassie finds herself on the short end of the stick as her charming companion takes the lead, sweeping her off of her feet. As she falls deeper into James’s spell, she has no idea that he’s hiding a secret, a secret that can destroy their blossoming relationship.

HUNK FOR THE HOLIDAYS by author Katie Lane is a fun, sexy read. Cassie and James will go head to head as they stand on opposite corners of business rivalries. And then theirs Cassie’s stubborn father and brother’s breathing down her neck. But the pair can’t stay away from each other and the fireworks are only getting started. Can they overcome their obstacles and find a way to be together?
HUNK FOR THE HOLIDAYS is a good read by a talented writer – A perfect treat for a cold winter’s night, especially around the holidays. You might never view your shower head the same again.

CHILD C - A Chilling Tale of Survival



Child C: Surviving a Foster Mother's Reign of Terror





BOOK REVIEW: CHILD C

My Rating *****

From the very first page, I was hooked on Christopher Spry's story of survival. The physical scars are bad enough, but the emotional scars are worse. It's amazing this young man even survived to adulthood. In so many aspects Christopher should be dead - ingesting toxic cleaning fluids, starved, being dragged by a car and then just the many blows to his head. His foster mother was pure evil as she hid behind her religious views. As hard as a book like this is to read - sometimes it's necessary so that maybe somewhere else another child in the same situation might be saved. Perhaps social workers will do their jobs more efficiently and people will pay closer heed to the warning signs that are often overlooked. As hard as it seemed for Christopher to share his story, I can only hope that his future will be brighter as he makes peace with his demons. A highly recommend read. Reviewed by: Tamera Lawrence
