Getting Hippie for Zoey

I know this is normally a book blog but today, it's the Zoey Blog. Zoey is my grand daughter and she is two years old. Zoey is full of energy and very playful. She is an explorer, a charmer, some days a UFC champion, and the sunshine of my life. When Zoey was born, Zoey didn't have any complications and we never noticed anything wrong until she started to walk. She had a duck like waddle to her gait but the doctor and the local First Steps both said there was nothing wrong with her. They said she probably had Lordosis of the spine and would grow out of it. When it became apparent that Zoey was not going to be "growing out of it" my daughter, her mother, took her to Riley Hospital for a meeting with a spine specialist. We were relived because finally we'd get some answers as to if she really was going to grow out of it or not. We were not prepared not one bit for what we were told though. Zoey had bi lateral hip dysplasia; a condition of where both femurs do not attach to the hip sockets. What made Zoey's so bad was that not only did hers not connect but both bones had made a false pocket in the upper thigh and buttock muscles which had caused the balls to be shallow and surrounded by cartilage.

Zoey's actual CT Scan July 2015

Zoey had been misdiagnosed for two years and this was something that should have been detected from the day she was born. Zoey will also have to have each femur cut in two places to bring both legs to the hip joint. There is a danger in this because with every precious second that the bone is without blood supply, it can die. There's no saving a dead bone. Zoey will be in a cast that goes from just above her belly button down to her heel. She will be in this cast a total of  6 months. Zoey will have no lower body mobility. Zoey's mom is also a full time student at Ball State University in Muncie, In. Zoey's dad works in juvenile corrections. Zoey does not receive Medicaid, TANF, or any other financial program. Zoey will need extra diapers, a SPICA chair, and after care items that her insurance may or may not cover. Please help our Zoey Rae by purchasing our Get Hippie With Zoey Jamberry Wraps.

Jamberry e-Gift Certificate $25

  The Get Hippie with Zoey wraps shown are not just Hip Dysplasia but also show some of Zoey's favorite things. I love that Jamberry is willing to donate $2 of each sale will go towards this fundraiser for Zoey. We are hoping that we can raise enough to at least get the SPICA Jelly Bean chair for straight casts (usually the casting of choice with kids that are Zoey's age ). I know we can do it with your help! Here's how you can help us reach our goals:

                    1.) SHARE SHARE SHARE SHARE THIS POST! 

                     2.) Click the link and purchase a $24 e-Gift Certificate. If you are not into things for your nails  but still want to help, we will purchase either a sheet of these or a sheet of Junior Jams in your honor for a little girl at Riley Children's Hospital in Indianapolis, In through their Child Life organization that delivers goodies to children in the hospital. 

                     3.) Spread the word to make sure that every mother/mother to be should make sure their children are screened for hip dysplasia. In many European countries as well as Austrailia, families are given tons of help. Right now the US and my own local state of Indiana does NOT have any such association or program to help. Get the awareness out there that all babies and children need screened! My daughter was told SEVERAL times that Zoey would grow out of this. 

                      4.) By making ANY purchase from now until Oct. 14, you will be helping Zoey. Make those purchases! Get Hippie for Zoey Buy Link

Summer Heat Part Deux

As promised, I come bearing the gift of the second night of authors that rocked the Casbah this evening along with all us that were apart of day 1 of the Summer Heat Book Event. The past two days have been filled with great fun, LOTS OF LAUGHS, and new books to add to our reading lists. Be sure to check each of these authors out (I will include their links) and at least give them a nice comment.

1. Denyse Bridger-In Denyse's own words this is what our award winning multi genre author had to say about herself: I am a native of Atlantic Canada, born in the country’s Easternmost province, Newfoundland, and raised in Nova Scotia. A lifelong dreamer, I began writing at an early age and can’t recall a time when I wasn’t creating in some artistic form. An active interest in the American West, and to a lesser extent the American Civil War, has been a lifelong obsession. Cowboys have been a love-affair that began at the tender age of three, and eventually expanded to encompass an equally timeless passion for pirates, Greek Gods, and Ancient Egypt. The other side of the Old West intrigue is an affinity for Victorian England, particularly the 1885-1895 part of the century. The other endless love affair in my life is Italia and all its magic, beauty, and dazzling culture.

For more on Denyse Bridger visit her official web page to get the latest info, newsletter, books, and where you can get her books!

2. Katt A Barrett- Kat Barrett lives in her small Connecticut home with her husband of many years.

She finds writing relaxing and enjoys creating tales of romance, erotica, and science fiction/fantasy. Kat often mixes the genres, adding mystery and intrigue to her books to create an exciting and captivating reading experience.

If you enjoy her work, please keep an eye out for her name because there will be more to come.

Information on her earlier works can also be found on her website Tazariansaga.com.

Katt is full throttle when it comes to being an author. Her genres include Erotic, Menage, and Paranormal. Here is her books that are currently ready for you to buy up and read!

3. Suzy Shearer - Suzy is a wild card but who better to describe Suzy than Suzy. Here's her author bio in her own words.

Single, all alone and fancy free; I live in the western suburbs of Sydney Australia with one very spoilt dog and two equally spoilt cats to keep me company. I am a Buddhist, an author, an artist, a computer nerd and a voracious reader. I have a penchant for crazy coloured hair - pinks, purples even rainbowed .... it changes every month - oh yes, and for tattoos! My books always feature older heroes and heroines; ranging from mid 40s to 60s. Just because we are older doesn't mean we aren't intriguing, desirable, open to challenges and willing to experiment. I want my readers to understand that sexy isn't just for the under 30s ... lol. When I am not writing, I am usually painting - I am a water colour Artist. My subjects range from portraits and animals to nudes and landscapes. I hope you enjoy reading my books as much as I have enjoyed writing them.

4. Serena Akeroyd- There is no real way to describe Serena to you other than to use her own words. Believe me, you will want to pitch that Grey book and step inside her land of Oz. Putting the Raunch in Romance! Writer of contemporary, paranormal and historical romance. Creator of Book Boyfriends since 2013. A hapless romantic, a lover of Happily Ever Afters, Serena decided to craft her own adult fairy tales and writing has become the dream-come-true she never realized existed. The Naughty Nookie series, a contemporary collection of stories revolving around three very modern and unique women, is not all Serena has to offer. Watch out for werewolves, vampires, BDSM and historicals...

It's all in a day's writing!

5. Elle Boon-Elle Boon's tag line is "A dirty mind is a terrible thing to waste." So right off you know that you are in for a hot, steamy, and sexy read and won't be disappointed. Her genre includes Paranormal and Erotic. I'll let you read for yourself about Elle. 

"The first book is Max and his twin Malcolm’s story called Selena’s men. You guessed it, this is a ménage. They’d given up hope of ever finding the woman who was their Fated, until they both started having erotic dreams of a tiny blonde woman. Of course when they finally find peace and love, an enemy they’d thought they had banished to Hell thousands of years ago, Cronus, has found a way to come back. Now Max and Malcolm have to find a way to save the woman they love before Cronus steals her from them. Just when they complete the triad bond, they realize she was actually much more than just a normal human woman. I hope you’ll read my story that comes out with Siren publishing on April 3, 2014 and should be available through Amazon, Barnes and Noble and all other e-book book sellers within a few weeks after that."

6. Andrew Jericho-It's often a rare thing when you have a romance book event that you actually have a male author show up. Andrew Jericho just didn't "show up" he DOMINATED! If you are a fan of M/M romance then look no further than Andrew Jericho. I'll let him speak for himself. "I am a ManLove erotic romance author for Siren-BookStrand Publishing. LGBTQ rights activist, humanitarian, and freelance journalist/photographer. As a long supporter of LGBTQ rights, I am thrilled to be able to reflect this in the publication of my books which explore the lives of gay men in real situations of life and love. My writing proves love and erotic attraction are the same regardless of gender and/or sexual orientation. Often, my characters select themselves, as I provide them with their literary voice. Once a story develops, I am compelled to see it through to completion. My characters make sure of that fact. Love and eroticism are two very important and powerful emotions that drive not only my characters, but my style of writing as well. In their purest forms, I have seen those concepts transform my characters into better individuals. Also be sure to check out my author page at Siren- BookStrand! It contains my author bio, profile, and all books available. Through my activism it is my desire to provide a voice for those fighting to maintain their humanity, civil liberties, civil rights, and human rights. We are all one. I am a gay transgender man, who lives with my partner, John Jericho, and family. John, or Baby Doll, as I refer to him most times, is the inspiration for the Life With Baby Doll series updated frequently on my Website. We have two children. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, photography, eclectic tastes in music and the arts, and also browsing my local library and art galleries." Want to know more about Andrew? Here are his links to his books, his professional website, his art, and his own story about coming out and life.

7. Suzette Cauler- Suzette writes Contemporary and Erotica for the masses. Her books are filled with amazing chemistry, passion, seduction, and "sizzle". Suzette Rose Cauler has loved books (all types really) for as long as she can remember. As a child, she'd get lost in books for hours, using a flashlight to read under the covers long past bedtime. She read her first romance novel as a preteen and was immediately hooked by the swoon-worthy heroes and daring, spunky damsels. Though her reading tastes have definitely matured, Suzette continues to enjoy romance novels, especially those of the erotic, paranormal, fantasy, or historical variety. She writes almost as voraciously as she reads and typically falls head over heels in love with her heroes.Though everyday types of romantic situations do appeal to her, stories that include adventure, intrigue, or danger have always made Suzette's heart go pitter patter. If they incorporate some science fiction too, she is even happier. You'll find elements like these in most of her stories as well as strong heroines who can fight their own battles but sometimes enjoy letting someone else take the lead. Suzette lives on the East Coast with five special people who help keep her spirit young and her imagination fresh. (courtesy of Amazon).

Thank you again for stopping by and don't forget to check out these great authors. 

Keep checking for the next book event and your chance to get in on the fun and some great books and the people who write them.

Summer Heat and A Whole Lot of Great Authors You Should Be Reading

So a month or so ago, I was asked if I wanted to participate in a book event on Facebook. Let me first tell you that if you're an author, these are great to not only participate in but to gain new friends and fans. I did it because I love meeting new authors and new people. Plus, Tina Donahue is awesome and I adore her. So back to Summer Heat. I had such a great time with these ladies and all the guests who showed up  that I felt like I just had to share the fun with all of you out there in Blog Land and Readersville. Everyone started out by posting their books, links, and everything that had to do with their books and them being an author. Then the real fun started. I am talking about contests and games that went as mild as "Guess the Song That Plays at Your Funeral" to pictures of some serious man candy with suggestive captions to "Name that Penis!" Okay maybe it wasn't "Name that Penis" but I am sure Cynthia Knoble and Michelle Roth are totally going to steal that. Some of them had me laughing until I cried and my own son looked at me as if I had sprouted a second head and that was only day 1. Summer Heat finishes up tonight so I hope you guys who read this decide to stop by while you've got some free time.




           So to all my new found author friends and sisters of the pen, I am showcasing everyone that has participated so far. This is quite a list and I am urging EVERYONE to put these ladies and their books on your TBR lists. They are truly PHENOMENAL!



       1. Our lovely hostess with the mostess, Tina Donahue: Tina writes Erotic Contemporary and Erotic Paranormal. She has a the Outlaw Realm Series that is definitely a panty scorcher. Here's her author bio: I’m an award-winning, bestselling novelist in erotic, paranormal, contemporary and historical romance for Kensington, Samhain Publishing, Ellora’s Cave, Siren Publishing, Booktrope, Luminosity, and indie. Yay! Booklist, Publisher’s Weekly, Romantic Times and numerous online sites have praised my work, and trust me, I’m forever grateful for that. I’ve had my books reach finals in the EPIC competition, one title was named Book of the Year at a review site, and others have won awards in RWA-sponsored contests. I’m actually featured in the 2012 Novel & Short Story Writer’s Market. Talk about feeling like a freaking star. Before my writing career, I was the editor of an award–winning Midwestern newspaper and worked in Story Direction for a Hollywood production company. Outside of being an admitted and unrepentant chocoholic, I’ve flown a single-engine plane (scary stuff), rewired an old house using an electricity for dummies book, and have been known to moan like Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally whenever I eat anything Mexican or Italian. Yeah, I like to eat (burp).

2. Cynthia Knoble-Cynthia Knoble is wickedly delicious when it comes to her books and sense of humor. I am going to paste her official author blurb about her: Although I am a newly published author, I have written my entire life. In addition to my two currently available novels, a third novel and a series of erotic shorts will be published very shortly. A lover of all things creepy and scary, paranormal elements abound in my stories. I also love to draw, paint and cook. In fact, I am a trained chef but now I devote my energies to writing full-time. I am  also the mother of two sons and I live with them, a dog and a cat in southern Ontario, Canada.  Cynthia's writing genre is romance but her books range from sweet romance to erotic.

3. Michelle Roth- Now let me tell you about Michelle Roth, she is killing it with her Transfigured Series. However, she hits a home run with her Contemporary romances as well. Michelle Roth is definitely becoming a force to be reckoned with. I personally just read her first paranormal romance and all I can say is "GIMME MORE GIMME MORE!"

 

Here's her titles including her first paranormal romance (welcome to the club Michelle).

4. Mardi Maxwell- Here's a little about Mardi:
I love the quirky and the unique. I believe in UFOs, ghosts, and that we have a moon station on the dark side of the moon. lol I have a wonderful son and DIL who have been kind enough (after much badgering and hinting around) to give me three lovely grandchildren. I'm a very young grandma ;-)
I've loved reading since I was a little girl although just about every book I ever read I rewrote in my mind. After a while I decided to just start writing my own books. My best friend dared me to send one in, so I did and to my surprise it was accepted.
I love books that make you laugh, cry, sit on the edge of your chair in fear that the couple won't work it out, and then finally cheer for them when they do. I'm a true believer in a happy ending and won't read a book or watch a movie that ends any other way.
I write every day but I always find time to spend with my family and friends as well as my hobbies (cooking, gardening, traveling, and ceramics).
My personal motto is "Regret is a wasted emotion." Live well and happy reading.

Mardi's genre is erotic paranormal BDSM style. Forget the Fifty club and join Club Mardi's Dom's Club of Mystique and Zarronian Warriors Series

5. DeCota Jaymes-DeCota Jaymes is published through JK Publishing. She is a new author and she mixes her paranormal with some hawt erotica. In her own words, this is her author bio: I started writing as a hobby. I didn't know that I would actually enjoy it until my friend read some of my work and loved it.... I hope to make this a well deserved creative breakthrough for myself. I never was creative in the crafting area, but words are easier to manipulate. They are your thoughts, feelings, and your life all in one package. Most of my writings have bits from my past. Some are little things that would never really matter to some; others are life changing and I make it to where it has a happy ending. Not everyone gets one of those and not many situations warrant them either. My extreme case of sarcasm and odd humor make it even more interesting.



 

Here is her latest release:

6. Emma Anderson-Emma Anderson is a six title author and she is definitely a fine asset to club Paranormal Romance genre. Here is an excerpt from the first leg of the Summer Heat book event from last night in her own words: These voices belong to our many characters, and when I say constant I mean it. Mine especially like talking to me just as I’m about to go to sleep, which is helpful for someone who was a light sleeper before my boys were born, and now barely gets two hours before waking up again. (Note my boys are now ...7 and 9, so I have no idea what my body/mind is playing at not letting me have a decent night’s sleep).
For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Emma Anderson. I currently have six romances books out on the shelves of Amazon, Bookstrand, Kobo,….. Well you get the idea! And another one due to be released in the next few weeks. So far they are all paranormal. My romantic mind likes to see the creatures of nightmares having their own HEA.

7. Sara Anderson- I am Sara Anderson. I am an author published through Siren Bookstrand. I have 4 published books with one releasing on February 11t through Siren. I have been married for 20 years.
We have three children together: a son and two daughters. We live in rural southern Missouri. It is beautiful here with the gentle rolling hills and green rural acreage. There are cows everywhere since this area has two of the top beef producing counties in the state. Cowboys are easy to find here, and country music is the default music of every grocery store and gas station. Sara Anderson mixes her writing  paranormal romance with spellbinding characters. Her utterly sinful series, Warriors of Dareen  is a must read!

Sensuous Book Tours Proudly Presents The Alisa Anderson Book Tour for Fallen Angel Part 1

Fallen Angel: A Mafia Romance

 (Roman Crime Family)

Alisa Anderson & Cameron Skye

"Fallen Angel is a dark, tasty appetizer with echoes of "The Sopranos." It's like picking up a Lindt truffle on your way out of the store. There's just enough to wake up your taste buds, or in this case, other parts due South." - Margo's Red Light District

"Gritty,sexy and with a strong but vulnerable female lead. Fallen Angel is a surprisingly good read." - Ingrid Hall

"Is Jess going to get sucked into a world with Nick that will destroy her or will she bring Nick to the other side and they find happy ever after? I will be grabbing the next book soon. I need to know more about this story and what the future holds." - TBird, Crystals Many Reviews

"Fallen Angel is a quick and sexy read. I hope to get the chance to read the next installment. I want to know more about Nick and the dangerous games he's playing. - Angela, Crystals Many Reviews."

Based on events from author, Cameron Skye’s life. Where does fiction meet reality? You decide.

Fallen Angel is a mafia romance serial novel released every 4 to 6 weeks, at approximately 8000 to 11000 words each. Due to sexual content, implied and actual scenes of abuse, violence, organized crime, language and frequent illegal drug use, we recommend this to mature audiences, ages 18 and over, who are comfortable with this subject matter.

Available at Amazon

PG 13 Excerpt from Fallen Angel Part 4: 

Nick filled his glass with scotch, watching the ice swirl before slamming it back in one gulp. Jess was appalled at how he was just sitting there, acting as if nothing happened. She was stunned she was keeping any sense of composure.

She was scared. So very scared.

Scared of what she just witnessed.

Scared of Nick.

Scared of what she was feeling.

Most woman would have ran the hell out

of there the minute their boyfriend pulled a gun on someone, killing them in

cold blood.

But not her.

Terrified? Hell, yeah. Petrified?

Obviously. But if she was honest, she’d have to admit a horrifying truth to

herself. It was also…

Intoxicating. Scandalous. Tantalizing.

An adrenaline rush like nothing she’d ever experienced in her entire life.

A dangerous drug, one that excited her, turning her on in ways she never imagined….

Welcome to the dark side, kid.

Authors Bios: 

Alisa Anderson:

well...alisa did stuff and is still doing stuff. only now she has two boys crazy enuff to want her as their mommy. hey, at least she tried to warn them, so her job is done. she doesn’t like to capitalize, partially because she likes how lower case letters look visually, but mostly out of laziness. please don't judge. it could be you. and she would say, hey. you're alright, buddy. you're ok in my book. now c'mere for a hug. the hug might be pushing it. air kiss? you are strangers, after all, with only a mutual love of poor grammar.

​she lives for a world full of controllable anatomically correct, android men programmed to meet her specific feminine needs (wink, wink, nudge, nudge with a big waggle of the eyebrows). who look like the rock. and ian somerhalder. and idris elba. and that's it she promises. variety. gotta have variety, right?

​but alas...apparently that exists only in johanna lindsey's genius mind. so until then, she enjoys her incredibly warped sense of humor. she reads tons of erotica and romantic, drippy goo that makes her heart go pitter patter. then she thought, hey. what, she said to herself. (softly, of course, so no one finds out she is indeed, 2 nuts short of a fruitcake) maybe you should write this stuff too. maybe someone will like it and maybe buy it. so she said, huh, you think? then she said, well...yeah, i wouldn't have suggested it...(inserts sarcastic tone) and then she was like lose the attitude, ok? then she was all, would you just shut up and write, already? sheesh! and she did. :)

Cameron Skye:

When Cameron is not in the lab working toward a Ph.D., in Neuropsychopharmacology, which in laymen's terms is basically finding the effects drugs have on mood and behavior, she is writing stories, crating vivid, intense characters you will never forget.

She believes while life can take you down every path but the right one, eventually everyone will find their happily ever after.

Celebrate Earth Day

HAPPY EARTH DAY! 

 Today is a great day to reflect on Mother Earth and what YOU can do to reduce the size of your carbon foot print. Let's face it-we only get one Earth. Already we have global warming and the effects from that have been huge not to mention the pollution of our oceans and seas that is slowly causing sea water to decrease. 

In celebration of Earth Day, I have some great tips and even a great discount from All Romance Books on this special day when we celebrate Mother Earth. 

 

 Reducing our impact on our environment is the first and most important step in living Green and making our world better. 

What is living Green mean? Living Green means that we recycle, use toxin free chemicals, we stop dumping in and depleting natural resources, we conserve our natural resources as well as habitats, and cutting down on how much power we use. 

Living Green is attainable. Already many are catching on to harnessing solar, wind, and Geo-thermal energy sources and using re purposed building compounds for their homes and businesses. When a tornado leveled a town in Kansas in 2007, leaders sought to rebuild but they wanted to innovate Green technology into the works. Celebrity, Leonardo Di Caprio and his team helped to bring in every Green expert there was to help the citizens of Greensburg, Kansas to rebuild using smart Green technology. 

Today, Greensburg, Kansas along with many cities in Colorado are among the leaders in Green energy technology and building. They are leaders in how we can embrace ways to cut down on our use of fossil fuels, chemicals, agriculture,and energy use. Being off the grid is the new wave of the future. 

 SO HOW CAN YOU LIVE GREEN? 

Most people believe that to live Green means that it isn't affordable. Here are the top ten easiest and cheapest ways to live Green. 

  Top 10

1. Use only natural cleaning products-Natural cleaning products are just as good as the ones that are filled with chemicals only they won't take minutes off your life, expose you to carcinogens, damage your lung tissue, and even cause brain cell death. They also will not harm the environment.  
2. Buy generic organic produce-BUY FROM YOUR FARMERS AND LOCAL PRODUCE STANDS and look for the organic. Organic means that the fruits and vegetables have not been exposed to harmful pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Name brand or big chain store produce will cost more money and sometimes it can be shipped or placed near the produce that is NOT organic.
3. Grow your own Produce. Nothing is more beneficial to you, your family, and to Mother Earth. Using organic compost and organic pesticides can ensure that you're creating a food source that will have many benefits as well as enrichment to the Earth. 
4.  DON'T WASTE FOOD! Whether you are dining in or out-don't waste food. If you need to bring left overs home from the restaurant, request that the content be placed in a biodegradable container or use your own.
5. Burn Less Fuel-If you're looking to purchase a car-choose a vehicle that takes Flex Fuel or Alternative fuels. Now, some of us can't do that so limit your trips-try to group destinations together so that you're doing more yet driving less. Carpool when you can also saves on fossil fuel emissions into our air.
6. Reduce Energy costs and usage by unplugging your appliances, televisions, and electronics when not in use. "Vampire" or "Phantom Energy Use" are terms that define the amount of energy still being used even if something is "turned off" yet is still plugged in. The less you leave plugged in-the less energy you're getting billed for and wasting. 
7. Think about installing or leasing Solar Panels or a Wind Turbine. Many of us cannot afford solar panels or wind turbine systems to our homes but there is a new trend where people are leasing them. However,  adding solar panels or even home turbines can really make a difference and will pay off in the long run. So think of making an investment into buying your own at some point. 
8. Having a well insulated home means you are saving heating and cooling costs which cuts down on the loss of energy and impact on the environment. Always make sure you use insulation that is made from earth friendly components and is installed or placed correctly. 
9. Ditch those old mercury thermostats and upgrade to a digital thermostat. The benefits of a digital thermostat is that it will electronically set the temperature for accuracy which means savings both in your pocket and with your energy. 
10. INSTALL LED LIGHTBULBS! They are an investment but they will save you money within the first month. These light bulbs are even more efficient than the compact florescent bulbs because they use less energy yet still perform just  as well if not better.

Cursed Awakening 

An ancient evil has returned and betrayal is everywhere. In the midst of all hell breaking loose, two hearts-one wild and the other one still wounded will stand before hell itself to fight for what's right and for a love forged from a Cursed Awakening.
Ivy Morgan has re-invented herself and is looking forward to the future for the first time, in a very long time. Since fleeing for her life from an overzealous religious cult, she is able to be a modern woman that is gaining her independence; so taking up with a sexy stranger named Nyx is the last thing she needs. Or, is it?

Nyx Wahpeton can't stop thinking about the young woman he’s met. It couldn't have come at a worse possible time; with the clans meeting and his family wrapped up in a centuries old war that’s nothing short of what horror movies are made from. He’s been a protector of his people and those that reside at the Reservation. There’s betrayal and evil at his front door; but, in his heart he knows Ivy is the one for him. She’s surrounded by secrets that he’s vowed to unlock, as well as her heart. However, can he keep her safe from his own secrets?
