BOOKS AND BLOGGING PHILOSOPHY

Philosophy is defined as a theory underlying or regarding a sphere of activity or thought. Well, my theory is if I can add at least 10 new books to my Wishlist and move at least 5 older Wishlist selections to my TBR list every month, then life is a ice cream sundae. And if I can find those 10 books from at least 5 new blogs each month then that's the cherry on top.

NEW VISITORS AND OLD- WELCOME!

NEW VISITORS AND OLD- WELCOME!
Well, I've made it almost 5 years now, so for better or worse, I continue on. I tend to blog in spurts as the urge to be creative erupts. As I don't have an artistic bone in my body, you will see very few changes in the layouts. Hey, I'm a reader not an artist like so many of the awesome bloggers I follow. I know you don't always have the time but if you stopped and looked, take a half a minute and say your piece. Recommend a book that you have enjoyed or hated for that matter. Thank you to all who visit.
Oh, and I moved my Google Friend Connect info and share this buttons to the top, as without our friends, who are we?

One night changed everything for bachelor Justin Bertolli. A womanizer at heart, never quite ready to settle down, he meets the woman who would change his life forever. Ambra Taylor is that woman, but is she all that Justin bargained for? Told from a male protagonist point of view, A Mortal Indiscretion delivers wholly unique narratives that don’t succumb to the same old recycled concepts. 
Everything unravels in Justin’s world. Although Ambra is a vampire, she is the vulnerable one of the two characters, providing a refreshing twist on standard tales. She is not waiting for her prince to come save her on his white horse. She simply desires love, to feel human love again and will do anything to protect the love of Justin. 
When Justin discovers the truth about who and what she is, will he still love her? Will he still want her? Find out, as their hearts collide in this epic tale of love.

Excerpt
Chapter 7:


 “Why did you not give her a chance? Then maybe 
you would be…”

“She isn’t you.
No one makes me feel like you do. No one,” I said and she looked over at me.

“You still 
believe that? After all I have put you through? After all I have done?”

“Yes. I believe
it. I know it.”

“But you must 
realize, that I am not what you thought I was. Don’t you?”

“Yes. I know 
that.”

“But, I do not 
understand. Does it not upset you?” she asked.

“Yes. It upsets 
me. But you owe me the truth, and you are going to 
tell me the truth now, 
right? No more lies?”

“Yes Justin. And 
then, maybe you will go running to that girl. 
Maybe you should go after her 
right now. There may still be a chance.”

“No. I don’t run 
away. That is your thing.”

She sighed and
sat on the edge of the bed, naked. She turned her back to me. 
I looked at her 
back, so sexy. Shoulders strong and defined. 
She had her arms across her chest.
She knew I was going to ask the questions. I think she was 
mentally preparing 
herself for the blows.

“Go ahead 
Justin. Ask.”

“First of all…
You’re not gonna tell me that you have to work in the 
morning, are you? Because 
I ain’t falling for that shit anymore,” I said. 
It just slipped out of my 
mouth. Like I didn’t have a filter between my 
brain in my mouth.

“No. I suppose 
you would not.” She turned to look at me.

“And you are 
staying here with me, right? I am going to have the 
pleasure of your company 
during the day? Right?” I pressed, as 
I felt my anger rising.

“Yes, I will 
stay. But I cannot go out with you during the day. 
will have to keep the 
shades drawn. It is just not that simple to explain.” 
She kept her head down as 
she spoke these words.

“Fine. I can 
handle that. Tell me, what exactly would happen if I did 
open the shades 
Ambra?”

“I would burn up 
and die,” she stated, flatly.

“What are you 
Ambra? Are you ready to tell me to my face now?” I was insistent. “Because I 
really need to know.”

“I am…” She 
started and then, she became silent again.

“Say it, dammit! 
I want to hear you say it to me,” I was really getting pissed.

“I am a 
monster,” she whispered.

“What? What kind 
of monster? You tell me God dammit!” I yelled.

“A vampire,” she 
said it so quietly, keeping her back to me.

“You turn around 
and say it to my face. You have kept this from me for 
so long. I want you to 
look me in the eye! I deserve it!” I grabbed her 
shoulders as I yelled at her.
She turned to me, tears flowing down her cheeks.
“Justin, I am a vampire.”
