As I Am By Mel Teshco A Book Finally That is Written about so Many of Us in this World

I received an advanced review copy or ARC of As I Am to read  and as soon as I begin to read this book I knew that I had finally found a book that I could truly relate to. One that had a character that  was like me. So many books if they are romances, cozy mystery or even romcoms none have ever been written about folks like me. People who have disabilities yet continue to go on day to have a wonderful life with romance and family. Please take a moment and read my review below. I would also recommend Mel Teshco's books... She has a way with words. And As I Am proves it. I own this book in my library... yes I had a review copy but as a way to support this author, I purchased it as well.


As I AmAs I Am by Mel Teshco
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As I started reading this book, I quickly realized this was one of those books that I would A. Need a full box of Kleenex to get through it and B. It was going to be a hard but good read. See I am someone who has spent over half my life in constant pain. Not as long as our main character Molly , but long enough and deep pain as she feels that I can relate to her. This character moved me. This is the first time I have truly been about to see myself in a book and if felt AMAZING.
Brock : He is her saviour. He saves her and he definitely comes on very strong. There are reasons for this you will find out when you read the story. Funny except for the money part reminds me of my hubs. Again it brought out the Kleenex while reading.

This book has so many good parts and so many parts that reminded me to go and hug my husband. Yes, if you live in pain WOW or know someone who does (or a silent disease) this will truly strike you to the core. Even if you do not this book for me is a different kind of romance but one that is SO NEEDED in our day when our bodies are not perfect. Thank you to Author Mel Teshco for this book.

Beauty and the BeefCake by Pippa Grant one of my Favorite ROMCOM Authors

Beauty and the Beefcake: A Hockey/Roommate/Opposites Attract Romantic ComedyBeauty and the Beefcake: A Hockey/Roommate/Opposites Attract Romantic Comedy by Pippa Grant
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I found my book boyfriend, no girlfriend, no pet...no this is my favorite book of all times. This is a book that I will read and re-read. I think this book and the book before in this series Royally Pucked are two books that have stolen a place in my heart forever. Ares, Felicity and Loki (yes a monkey) are now my la familia. Author Pippa Grant has found a way to take a huge gentle giant of a hockey player, who rarely speaks out loud; but speaks thru his actions on and off the ice. She molds him into a person that I and almost everyone I have spoken to has fallen in love with. Felicity, oh my stars is a quite a character or two or three. You will understand when you read this book. I have to think she if this were a paranormal book she would be Ares life mate. As a person she had me rollin on the floor in tears. Our author is amazing in her descriptions to the point at times I felt like I was right there in the room with them. I could see her and her friends at the comedy club. Yep that real indeed. Then we have Loki the monkey. He is not Ares's pet but his friend who but he has adopted Ares. Loki has a life all his own and he knows how to communicate with all around him including those who have passed beyond...Grammy. This book has it all... from dickcookies to talking on a cell phone in gifs, a ghost that knows how to knit from the beyond and a monkey who opens doors that really should be left closed. If you have not had the privilege of meeting this author through her books. I invite you to pick one up... now I would highly suggest starting at Mr McHottie the book that started it all and move on from there. And if you have kindle unlimited yep she has them in the KU library... It won't hurt to read them out of order but if you decide to read just a few then read Ares's twin too. Zeus has his own book which came out first. Can't have one without the other. So if The Pilot & The Puck Up (Zeus's book) and Beauty and the Beefcake (Areas ) and don't worry I heard thru the Pipsquad there are more books coming soon for us to read too. For a RomCom this book is one of the best out there. For the record in MY BOOK this BOOK is one of theod. best books Period.

Oh I have a New Town to Stalk Folks Bliss, Kansas.. You can start for FREE Right Now TOO

What a wonderful and must I say delish town I discovered between the pages of my kindle. It all started when a set of billionaire triplets discovered that their dad's will was not so clear cut as that expected it to be upon his passing.  I invite you to discover Bliss, Kansas like did and fall in love.
The Billionaires in Blue Jeans Series
Diamonds and Dirt Roads which happens to be FREE on Kindle at the time of my blog post is the first book in the series.

Wonderful Blissful Beginning to a New Series.

What a wonderful start to a new series by author Erin Nicholas. The sisters, triplets learn that they have to all sort of disappear to a small town in Kansas for a year to make ...pies. What a well written and at times extremely soul touching but yet funny book. I love how Erin Nicholas has the ability to reach into my past and touch a little bit... Adding it to her stories. It is like she know me personally, which she does not, and finds she needs to showcase my flaws and fix me. These sisters, like so many of us ( whether by blood or not) have issues as well as their strengths. Some were expected and others were happy surprises. I invite you to sit back, grab some crispy bacon, a jar of Nutella and just enjoy some Bliss.

In the second book of this series High Heels and Haystacks  we get to know more about triplets and the town but really this is sister Ava's story and for me it is the funniest story. Because I can see how she was in New York and how she becomes in Bliss.

Book so good it will have you baking pies and chasing chickens

I want to move to Bliss !!! This is the second book in a triplet book series...yes you read that correctly TRIPLETS. And girls at that. All look they same but let me tell you we learned from the first book in this series, these sisters are definitely not the same in personality. In High Heels in Haystacks we get to know Ava the sister who runs the empire and Parker who runs the diner. Holy Mo!y it is so much fun that these 2 were attached to each other. Erin Nicholas has given us get another wonder well written and yes even got at times book. Made me pull out my baking dishes and try my hand at an Apple pie or two...well three. Yes they went in the trash just like Ava's okay. I am so excited about the third book coming out next month.

Cashmere and Camo is the newest book that just came out. It completes the series based in Bliss...Sadly for this reader. I am hoping that our Author will return to Bliss at some time in the future and take us there with her, because I for one found a new fictional town  that I follow.

This is the final book in a three part series from Author, Erin Nicholas. Each book can be read as a standalone , but hey it's about hot triplet girls so why would you want to do that? I loved each book but Noah and Brynn are my favorite of the three couples. I mean here is a shy , geeky, lab gal today who blossoms before our eyes. Then we have Noah big tough muscle ex Marines who fights falling in love. This book had it all humor...come on Noah fixes Brynn up on dates and tags along? Heat...yep lots of heat. Our author is so good for that. She catches us up on all the friends and family in Bliss before the book ends too. Although I would like to throw it output there as a Bliss fan, I am already imagining other books based in this town should our Author SO choose to go back to Kansas.
I own this book in both kindle AND book form. LOVE IT
