Join the fun and crazyness that is Eve's life!

Eve is the single mother of four children-two adult boys, a nine-year-old girl, and a tenacious two-year-old little boy. She loves the life she's made for herself and her children. She even enjoys her job as a probation officer. She has a full and busy life but still can't stop thinking about Joseph, the father of her youngest children. Seeing him each time he came to visit with his two children has her hormones in overdrive.

Dennis had married Eve when she was nineteen years old. Dennis was supposedly a financial wizard, and they lived the good life with everything money could buy. They had two children together. When they lost everything financially Dennis abandoned his wife and children at her father's house and moved to America leaving them without any explanation. Joseph was a college student when he met Eve. He didn't have anything but his dreams of one day having money and being able to afford living the good life. When his dreams finally became a reality, Eve and Joseph started having fights. While they still loved each other very much, Eve wasn't ready to change anything about her life. They had Anna together already when they initially split up, and Robbie came much later after a steamy one-night incident.

Nils is Eve's vet for her cats. He's a nice enough guy, no sparks though. Eve felt she needed to get over Joseph, and Nils was available and interested. Sex with Nils was just that-sex, without all the emotional attachment.

Eve's twenty year old son Tom had gotten his girlfriend, Deepa, pregnant. They had decided to get married, and Tom wanted to invite his father, Dennis to the wedding. Eve understands her son's need to have his biological father there for his wedding. That doesn't mean she needs to be happy about it. The lowlife abandoned her after all, but for the sake of her son's happiness she'd tolerate Dennis's presence. Eve's separation from Joseph was painful. Their nine-year-old daughter, Anna was doing everything in her power to get them back together. She just knew they belonged together. Eve knows she's still in love with Joseph, but he's got a new girlfriend and lives in another city now, so she decides she needs a distraction. She needs somebody to make her forget about Joseph. Nils is emotionally safe. She's not in love with him, and it's just sex between friends. She can't help wondering if there was something better out there than having sex with the vet.

DID THE EARTH MOVE? is a surprisingly entrancing book. I was at first a little overwhelmed with the many very European terms but the more I read, the more involved I felt with the characters. This book is full of wonderful characters, a few that you just love to hate, and some that you just can't help but be amused with. I loved Eve's vibrancy for everything around her. She's just one of those women that lives life to the fullest and refuses to let anything keep her down for long. When her father became ill, she realized that life is short and sometimes you just have to take that one chance at love. Now if she can just get through her son's wedding without bludgeoning the ex-husband, she'll have it made.

Caught in the Dragon Cove, book one of The Dragon Dimension by Ressa Empbra is an incredible journey into a whole new world!  The story starts off with heart wrenching drama and carries you into an exciting future!  Iax Sarvias Eluhyax Conifurr is a strong female lead character that is sassy, snarky and tough, and she's about to discover that she is way more than she ever thought possible! Iax is an agent with the O.W.O. (Outer Worldly Operations) Unit of the C.I.A. .She travels to other Realms and solves problems, but this one may prove more than she can handle!  Gemma, Iax's side kick, and ultimate best friend is fun and extremely funny without even trying. I love the things that come out of her mouth!  She made me laugh on more than one occasion.  Mazar, a Dragon shifter, (YES! Dragon!!! ) has been searching for his Truemate, and not having found her commits an insane act, one that could lead to his death, but he's willing to do anything to stop the pain that courses through his head.
Caught in the Dragon Cove is a wonderful ride from beginning to end and I cannot wait for the second installment of this fabulous story! My rating is 5 out of 5 stars!

I got this book for free on a one day only freebie book give away - which goes to show you that you CAN get something spectacular for free! Graveyard Shift was a wonderful, fun and insightfully hilarious book which I enjoyed very much! Lana Harvey is a super awesome, daring, Archangel-dating protagonist/heroine of a Reaper, who is not immune to getting a case of nerves when the sh*t hits the fan! Angela Roquet has created a totally fresh spin on the afterlife universe: fashioning unique, endearing characters - many names familiar, others not so well known, some borne completely right out of her imagination (and perhaps even a few names have been changed to protect the innocent!) - with a deliciously devilish plot, full of twists, turns and "ah ha!" moments. I LOVED IT -  and I can't wait to read the next book in this series! The next one I'll even pay for to get my hands on!  :)

I really enjoyed reading "Margarita Wednesdays: Making a New Life by the Mexican Sea" by Deborah Rodriguez. It almost reads like you're hearing the story being told by one of your closest friends. The author's writing style is engaging, friendly, and has such good flow (with a comforting, warm breeze) I just sailed through the pages. Deborah really knows how to weather any of the bad things that come her way in life as she knows how to get things to turn around in life. When $h** happens it's time to assess the situation and move on, literally!

Deborah Rodriguez knows how to make life into an adventure. Her willingness to pick up and reinvent her world is so inspiring. This is such an uplifting and, often times, fun read. When there is something not so great about her life it's wonderful to know it's going to get better. If the sun doesn't come up for her tomorrow, she's gonna make darned sure it does the day after!

As an artist, I simply loved reading about another creative person's unconventional happenings that always end up turning into some sort of chaos. Even the everyday occurrence can evolve into some sort of drama that confounds everyone around the person it's happening to. But, it can also make great fodder for a painting, a play, music people can't seem to stop listening to, or the kind of writing. I know I love reading!

I'm looking forward to this author's next book!

This is a funny, heart felt, and oh so true read! Women, and especially moms everywhere will identify with the crazy tales this lovely book contains. Marcia is a truly entertaining writer. A wonderful choice for those times when a glass or wine (or cuppa tea!) and a fun read are in order!
Full Disclosure: I received advance chapters in exchange for a honest review.

We all have seen Bethenny on The Real Housewives but the question I wanted answered was: can she write? If turning tales from your real life into thinly veiled fictional narrative is ok by you, then you'll find this book lots of fun and a quick read. This is absolutely a guilty pleasure. It's chock full hilarious events in the main character's life - a struggling actress slash wannabe businesswoman - as she searches for what many women search for, the right guy, a cool career and to come closer to the perfect body. The book also covers the 2 cities I like reading about best - New York and Los Angeles - and has a slew of hilarious, sexy misadventures. If you know Bethenny then you know there'll be some stuff in here that some people may find inappropriate but that's what I love about it. It's got snarky stuff to spare but also covers some ground that isn't flattering (again, assuming you believe this stuff comes straight from Bethenny's life itself). She doesn't shy away from missteps, embarrassing romantic moments, and outrageous stories of nights on the town. The book often feels like you're hearing these stories from a friend over cocktails - with no punches being pulled. Check it out and you won't be disappointed. I should warn you though - I felt it started a bit slow but definitely picks up in the late second half. But you also get some fun behind the scenes glimpses of her reality television experiences!

As an aside, if you're a reality TV fan like me, and have ever wanted to go on a show or wondered how people like Bethenny get cast on those shows, there's a really fun and informative book I also just checked out -&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Me-On-TV-The-First-Ever-Kick-Ass-Guide-To-Get-You-On-Any-Reality-Show/dp/B008LF8QI4/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Me On TV: The First Ever Kick-Ass Guide To Get You On Any Reality Show</a>. I highly recommend it.

Great murder mystery tale that covers the  hilarious antics of a " would be sleuth" and her zany world as she gets to bottom of who the real killer is!  Those of us with a few years of life experience can relate to the story's lead character, including an ex- who just can't go away - a past life / profession that reemerges from time to time -  the excitement of new loves and lives - and getting things wrong just because " #*!? happens in life.  It's all here in this terrific story.

The always humorous author PJ, has once again taken us on fun filled and surprising journey in this delightful read. I am a city gal from Brooklyn (when a rare lone tree grew there they even made a film about it), yet I now feel midwestern. It is as  if I've been on a joyful and drama filled vacation to the country while meeting colorful characters from beginning to end. Strange though, I now have this urge to score some Medical MJ or at least a brownie.
My advice-Buy this enjoyable book. It's a treat!

Eve: The Awakening has easily become one of my most favorite books. The book is dark, gory, suspenseful, and full of plot twists. Jenna really does have a way with words. I couldn't put it down! You will easily fall in love with her characters! :)

This is a fun book! Elisabeth Levy welcomes us to come along on a happy personal romp in a friendly compassionate manner. She relishes new adventures and manages challenges with aplomb; we readers visit new locales and compare memories of past travels. First Class! BB

LOVED this book!! The character of Eve is beautifully written.  Her evolution through out the book was something to watch!! This book is full of adventure and the characters are strongly voiced and very developed.  Once you read this one you will want to seek the sequal immediately to find out what happens to Eve.  You won't be disappointed.  This book was labeled Young Adult but I am in my 30's and enjoyed it just as much as many of my students who were also reading the same book.  A must read.

I totally loved the chance to peek into the young lives of Avery Aster's fabulous characters, Lex, Taddy, Vive and Blake from Undressed and Unscrupulous. These characters are fun, quirky, sassy, and the most loyal friends you'd ever want to have!

LOVE, LEX was a crazy adventure into what it was like for Lex living with her self-involved, over-sexed mother, Birdie. In one wild day Lex catches her boyfriend screwing her mother, blows up Birdie's apartment, gets herself and her friends thrown in jail, and falls for the hot fantasy-inducing motorcycle cop, Officer Ford Gotti, who arrested them. All the day before she turns eighteen.

Love, Lex was so much fun to read and a real treat for those hooked on Avery's Manhattanites series! I can't wait for Yours Truly, Taddy, book two in The Undergrad Years! 4 stars

I can honestly say that Eve Rabi put her foot in both books and they are definitely 5 and higher star.  I am about to read the rest of her books in my library that I haven't had a chane to read yet.  Eve took birdie some one with a non so normal back ground and family and matched her with someone with money.  If you think you know how this book is going to end up you are truly wrong. I don't want to give too much on either book because I want you to experience both books in full force with all the surprises and what the hell!!  I am sure you will truly enjoy this both.

I can absolutely recommend the Locklear Letters to all readers! Sid Straw is skilled at doing the right thing the wrong way and it is so entertaining to see how the snowball gets rolling and takes over. Mike Kun has done an amazing job of telling this story in a unique format that keeps you engrossed in Sid's letters. The hilarious twists in Sid's life made me literally laugh out loud! I read The Locklear Letters in one day and plan on taking it to the beach to enjoy again. A must read for anyone who enjoys the crazy humor of life!

Just and another quirky, funny, winning series for Eve Langlais!  All the makings of one hell of a ride.  Great characters, sub characters and some quirks and turns that will tickle your funny bone or....... somewhere way more private!  All in all, another great series.

Eve has done it again.  This book is fun and sexy.
