Welcome to the Life's a Beach Hop, hosted by The Mommy Island and The Kids Did It . The beach is one of my favorite locations! As a former college swimmer, I like to swim 30 minutes in one direction then turn around and head back to my starting point. Sometimes a fear of sharks gets lodged in my mind, but overall it's more fun than swimming in a pool. In addition to a gift card, I'm giving away an ebook of my college swimming romance STREAMLINE, set at the beaches of Pensacola, Florida. Enter on the Rafflecopter. a Rafflecopter giveaway Hop over to these beachy blogs to win more stuff!

Thanks to Kathy from I Am A Reader for hosting... Ah, books. Most of us love 'em so much we dream about them. A disturbing dream inspired my current novel, Twin Sacrifice . How much do you enjoy books with a dreamlike quality? Not so much dreamy in a romantic way, but more like you can't tell if the plot is a dream or reality. I don't like to feel confused when I read. So I'm hesitant to read Never, Never even though I lurve Colleen Hoover. It would be a dream for you to win a $10 gift card! I'm also giving away an ebook of my college volleyball romance Blocked .

Thank you to Stuck in Books for hosting this wonderful hop! Have you ever felt confused by a book that knocked you over with its awesomeness but generated only minimal reviews? This hop is all about highlighting wonderful reads that deserve more attention. I've got two books that need your attention! First is a hot angel story by Nicki Elson. See my five star review HERE . Maggie Brock has everything under control. Even her divorce, though painful at the time, registers only as a minor blip in her carefully constructed universe. Her life in Prairie Oaks has once again returned to a smooth, predictable pace…until an angel shows up in her bedroom. The angel is just as bewildered as Maggie about why he’s been sent to her, but their unsuccessful efforts to gain understanding of the mystery fade to the background as their relationship grows. Soon, Maggie’s biggest problem becomes the angel himself, as her feelings for him develop into something less than saintly. While Ma...

Thanks to Mary and Kathy for hosting this hop! I love America. One thing that makes America great is FREEDOM. Not only freedom to read, but freedom to voice dissenting views on politics and religion. Americans' fierce political divide inspired my fifth novel Blocked . It's a college volleyball romance between two individuals with polar opposite philosophies about the way the world should work: College freshman Lucia Ramirez has a secret crush on Dane Monroe. He’s a tall drink of water — blond, brash, and one hell of a volleyball player. Hijole . Lucia hopes her volleyball scholarship to his school will make him notice her. Too bad what’s noticeable is Dane’s obvious hatred for Lucia. Her family’s politics contradict everything he stands for. And politics are front and center in both their families. Dane’s mother is about to face Lucia’s father in the race for US President. When Secret Service throws them together, Dane can’t deny his frustrating attraction to Lucia’...

Now that we're older and wiser, it's time for this reflective, fun blog hop! Thanks to the blog hop hosts with the most: The Armchair Squid Nicki Elson Suze Nan Mock As the Squidster said on his blog, here's a prompt for the hop: The greatest films stand the test of time, speaking to us in different ways at various life stages. Is there a movie that was a part of your life when you were younger that you see differently now? Like fine wine, has it improved with age or did it die in the bottle? Has maturity brought you new insights you missed in your youth? We want to know all about it! The movie I choose is the happy coming of age story  Ferris Bueller's Day Off . I adored this movie when it launched in 1986, my freshman year of high school. It was one of the funniest movies I'd ever seen. What a classic take on American high school. I was a goody-two-shoes in school. I studied like a big ole nerd, and I didn't have t...

Alex Cavanaugh ,  Stephen Tremp, L. Diane Wolfe,  and  Michael Di Gesu   have teamed up for the Get Healthy Blog Hop! Bummed about being fatigued all the time? Not feeling as fit as you'd like to be? Here is a Blog Hop that can help us make 2013 a year that we can  get healthier. The Objective: Share with everyone something you have done that affected your health in a positive way.  I just attended my 20 year college reunion over the weekend, and I was amazed by how fit my peers looked. What am I doing wrong? I've always been a tall, athletic woman, and I know being thin isn't in the cards for me, but I'm displeased by some recent weight gain. Change is HARD, and one change I need to make is to incorporate more mindful eating into my regimen. According to Lauren Todd, mindful eating is eating based on physiological cues instead of environmental or emotional cues. After a long day of work I often plop down in front of th...
