Love You Through It by Fabiola Francisco
Excerpt
Boom.
Clash.
Argh!
My fingers weave in my hair and tug hard. A loud yell escapes my lips, and my eyes land on the reason for the ruckus. An excruciating cry bubbles in my chest, slowly building as if adding to my pain. With another scream, the tornado within me explodes. It escapes angrily, as my body swooshes around my house, knocking things down as I come in contact with them. Glass shatters. Metal clacks against the tile. Cushions swoosh as they’re thrown through the air.
Uncontrollable and destructible fury burns within me until I melt into a pile of ashes on the cool tile. The water from my eyes extinguishes the burning heat as I sink further onto the floor. I curl into myself, fists hitting the hard surface.
I don’t know how long I stay like this for, but eventually I start to drift away, my mind numb and my heart slowing down. Before I completely fall asleep, I sit up. My head is pounding and my body is stiff from tension. I close my eyes for a few beats, and reassess the destruction around me when I reopen them.
I was okay a few days ago when Olivia came by. As okay as I could be in my situation. Today, I lost it. Something inside me triggered and I lost control. I tiptoe around the broken glass with my bare feet and grab the broken frame I launched across the living room.
I hug it to me, careless of shards of glass that could cut me. “I’m so sorry,” I whisper into the frame. “I’m such an asshole. Sorry.” I fight the urge to cry again. I pull the frame from my chest and stare at the picture of Josh and I. The glass scratched a bit of the gloss, but it’s still a beautiful picture of us. I shake off the excess glass, not even wincing when I get a small cut on my finger. The pain is welcomed.
After cleaning the mess, I sit cross-legged on the couch with a fresh glass of wine. Nothing will get rid of this headache, so I might as well fuel it with alcohol. Besides, I could use the disconnection alcohol offers. Another night of forgetting for a little while about the loss I’m grieving. Another night I sleep through most of it.

New Release! Save My Heart by DC Renee




IT'S LIVE!!



Life and death.  Exact opposites.  One brings great joy.  One brings great sorrow.  But without one, there is no other.

I gave my daughter life when I was just eighteen.  And now, at sixteen, she faces death.

From the minute I heard her little heart beating, she was my everything.  It didn’t matter that her father had left me, his empty promises a whisper in the wind.  It didn’t matter that I had needed to figure out how to get an education while being a young, single mother.  It didn’t matter that I had acted as both mother and father while trying to give her everything I could.  It didn’t even matter that she was born with a big heart that had us in and out of the hospital for all her life.  None of that mattered because just one look at her, one smile from her, and one, “I love you, Mom,” was enough to make any day better.  No love greater existed than that of a mother.

But now I was about to lose her.  My everything.

It would be up to Kieran to hold me up if my world came crashing down.  Dr. Kieran Bell.  He came into my life—our lives—and knocked down every wall I had ever put up.  He wasn’t just my daughter’s doctor; he was my friend.  He was more than my friend.  And now, I knew I’d need him more than ever.  I just hoped against hope that this time, life wouldn’t result in death.




PLEASE DELETE IF NOT REVIEWING










DC Renee has been writing all her life, from cheesy poems in elementary school (i'll share an example just so you know how cheesy: Flowers are my favorite thing; they usually bloom during spring. Pink, blue, yellow and green, so many colors that I have seen...etc.) to short stories and monologues, and eventually fan fictions for Days of Our Lives.

It was thanks to that superbly encouraging fan fiction community that DC found the courage to publish her first book - Let Me Go. It held fast in the top 100 Best Selling Contemporary Romance Fiction Novels on Amazon for over a month, going as low as the top 20's. Naturally, she loves to read, but she also likes watching hockey, dancing for fun, and loves her family.

Review for Saved By Grace by TJ Rudolph


Saved by Grace
TJ Rudolph


Seventeen year old Grace Delaney has been building up the courage to tell her best friend Aaron Wheeler that she is in love with him, but before she has a chance to, he is killed.


She swears to never love again, until Chase Ryder walks into her life-a notorious bad boy from her home town.
Everyone knows that Chase has spent time in juvi, but no-one knows why.
Grace is determined to stay away from him, but Aaron's ghost keeps appearing and keeps telling her to move on.
When Grace finds out that Chase, like her, had a damaged childhood, she finally understands why he pushes people away. She decides to try to break down those walls he has built around himself and show him that he is worthy of love.


Grace is hiding a secret of her own about a life she lived before she met Chase. She tries to hide her past from him, but that secret is exposed.
They learn to trust each other and fall in love--but then Grace finds out the truth about what really happened the night Chase’s father died.
If Grace can't learn to accept all of Chase, including his past, she risks losing her second love, too! 


Review:
I would be lying if I said this book wasn't utterly heartbreaking and that I didn't shed a few tears. We have all lost people we love, but Grace and Chase are two of the most broken people I have ever seen. And the sad thing is that their families played such a big part in that. Your family are supposed to be people you can trust. Instead, they gave these two some major issues. Neither of them really knew how to have a normal relationship so when they fell in love, they weren't sure what to do. And the big secret that Chase keeps hidden away? Even I didn't see that one coming. But it will threaten to break them apart for good. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was how both over reacted so much. It seemed a bit extreme at times. Otherwise, I had to finish this book in one evening. So, yeah I liked it! 
4 out of 5 stars!

Review for Fat Jimmy and the Blind Ballerina by Eddie Owens


Fat Jimmy and the Blind Ballerina
Eddie Owens

Blurb:

This is the story of one young man’s desire for comedy fame: a tale of ambition and humiliation on the way to the top.

Fat Jimmy is a cynical, young comedian and writer, who desperately wants to make it to the big time. He wants it all and he wants it now.

Fat Jimmy loves women; he loves booze and he loves comedy. He is sweary and controversial, but always funny and always memorable. 


Review:
This book was quite different than my usual PNR or romance read. It's about a comedian named Jimmy Punchinello and how he goes from quite the small time guy doing live stand up to a man in the television business. The first part of the book was a bit hard to get into. It was a little slow. Then you start learning more about Fat Jimmy's past and his family. They're quite an interesting bunch and all of them are go-getters. He is the only one without a "real job", hence he feels more like the screw up of the family. But this story isn't just about him constantly chasing women and fame and fortune. It's about a man who finally decides to do something worth while with his life while learning to understand his father more. I personally liked his psych evaluation. It was quite telling and spot on. Overall, the book was a unique read but definitely not for your younger audiences. 
4 out of 5 stars!

99 cent sale for Tales of a Mommy's Sippy-CUp by Mary E Haddock


For one week only, get Tales of a Mommy’s Sippy-Cup for only 0.99.
This refreshingly, fun book lets you into the mind of a mom and wife who just rather keep it real!


Synopsis:
Have you ever wondered what’s in a mommy’s sippy cup? Maybe a refreshing jug of water infused with lemon, a protein shake packed with extra kale, or, just maybe, it’s the unassuming adult cocktail. Let’s face it, being a mom and wife isn’t always the fairytale we think its cracked up to be; instead of princess dresses and a waiting knight in shining armor, most mothers are judged as if its still 1950’s suburbia. 

Being a woman is challenging, and women have not only become afraid to be honest with others, but with themselves. 

Tales of a Mommy’s Sippy-Cup started as a blog that impressively offended residents of the author’s small town. The controversy wrapped snug around the honest matter-of-fact tenacity facing the functions of motherhood often ignored. Mary Haddock not only embraces the actuality of her motherly role, but the social pariah she had become amongst the superficial parents in her community. She went against the grain and wrote down her personal narrative for all to enjoy. 

Equipped with a sippy-cup tip at the end of each tale, Haddock makes clear that fellow mama warriors are not alone in this insane universe called motherhood. 

So grab your special sippy-cup with your choice of adult beverage, and let’s sit back and laugh at how moms try to keep it real. Cheers!
