A New York Times Notable Book of 2013

A traumatic event unfolds when a girl with hair the color of golden wheat appears in an apple orchard; a woman plays out a fantasy with her husband and finds she cannot go back to her old sex life; an ugly woman marries an ogre and struggles to decide if she should stay with him after he mistakenly eats their children; and two sisters travel deep into Malaysia, where one learns the art of mending tigers who have been ripped to shreds.

In each of The Color Master's fifteen remarkable stories, Aimee Bender holds a funhouse mirror up to reality, proving, once again, that she is one of the most intelligent and imaginative writers of our time.

Can romance win?
Format: Kindle
The title is apt regarding the characters in this novel. Fallon and Savannah meet at a cemetery. Fallon is obnoxious. If I had been in Savannah’s shoes, I would’ve walked away, but then there would be no story, or a very different one. Both women have issues related to their respective families, as do many of the other characters. Everyone is flawed. While this is gritty in places, it’s also full of love – for family and friends, past and present. It turns out that they’ve had similar experiences in their lives, either currently or in the past. Smith deftly brought the two women together in scenes that highlighted their circumstances. This novel drives home the point that we never know what other people are hiding and coping with in silence, nor how similar our lives might be.

A Grumpy - Sunshine Delight
Format: Kindle
Fallon and Savannah's relationship starts off on a contentious note, giving readers a glimpse into both women's distinct personalities. While Savannah attempts to make amends, Fallon’s defenses shoot up, causing her to respond with sharp hostility. Despite this rocky beginning, fate brings them together once again. Savannah, determined not to let anyone take advantage of her, slowly melts Fallon's icy exterior with her kindness and thoughtful gifts. Their shared trauma enables both women to understand each other in ways no one else ever has. While a friends-with-benefits arrangement seems to work for them initially, deeper feelings soon begin to emerge, and that's when the story truly picks up momentum. Savannah’s daughter is a standout, character, offering youthful optimism that helps break down Fallon’s walls even further. Imperfectly Perfect takes readers on an emotional journey through trauma, grief, and loss, ultimately leading to hope, optimism, and joy. It's a story about trust, honesty, and embracing vulnerability to let your soulmate in. Get your copy today!

Aww! Lesbian Hallmark movie in a book
Format: Kindle
Yes, its a lesbian hallmark movie in a book. And, yes, being that it's a "sweet" romance, there's no love-making. Sad. Normally I would forego the sweet romances but when these two authors come together it's always a good book. So I gave it a go. I have to say that I really didn't miss the love-making; it was really that good of a story. I'm surprised to say that. The characters were great but Grinchy Celeste holds a special place in my heart. And the way she and Natalie bicker I got the biggest kick out of. Truly enjoyed the book. Keep 'em coming TB and Miranda!
