Mr Big Shot by S E Lund

Ever purchased a book based on great reviews just to find out it wasn’t that good? Well that was what happened to me when I downloaded The Big Shot from Amazon Kindle last week. I was really looking forward to a great storyline, strong characters and a HEA… unfortunately what I got was the complete opposite.

The story started off with Lexi, a young women in the middle of finals at Columbia…

Top Gun 2: What About Charlie?

Ever since Tom Cruise announced on Australia’s morning show Sunrise back in May that Top Gun’s sequel “is definitely happening” the world has gone into one hell of a spin. Everyone has been trying to get the latest scoop. When will it be filmed? What will the sequel be called? What will it be about? When will it be released? There are so many articles online it is almost ridiculous. But out of…

Reese Witherspoon’s New Romantic Comedy

Reese has a new movie coming out next month and it looks fabulous! So fabulous that I have spit on the monitor of my MacBook! I couldn’t help it – it was Reese’s fault!!! 🙂 The noise that came out of her wind pipe catapulted me back in time, like 16 years, to her hit romantic comedy Legally Blonde. Remember the scene when Elle’s boyfriend Warner breaks up with her in the middle of the restaurant…

Until It Fades by K A Tucker

Now this is a story that I felt could honestly happen in real life. That might sound like an exaggeration but trust me, it’s not. As far as stories go, this was so realistic, so honest and endearing that it felt incredibly believable. Author K A Tucker wrote such a lovely story, that every interaction was so strong and heartwarming it felt so real. You could honestly imagine everything that…

The Bombed Out Bachelor

Earlier today, my eldest daughter asked me if I still watch The Bachelor. I actually went mind black – I couldn’t think of what she was referring to. The what?!?!? She burst out laughing and reminded me of the days when I forbid anyone using the television downstairs, so I could sit front and centre and watch the drama unfold to my heart’s content. Aggh – that show! I could do no other than…

Nickelbacks New Heartfelt Song Is On Fire

Nickelback has released a new song and I love it! In fact the song, which is aptly called Song on Fire is playing on my Mac right now. It’s a good thing you can’t hear me singing, trust me… my neighbours dog is making the strangest of noises. I think he is protesting my vocal abilities 🙂 I am listening to the lyrics and they are so sad yet so sweet at the same time. I wonder what his ex thinks of…

The Art of Verbal Seduction

I don’t know of any woman, or man, who does not like to be seduced! True… and before you think it’s silly, or that you know all there is to it, I want you to picture this. You’re sitting on the couch, watching same trashy show on tv. You’re bored, have had a crappy day at work and you just want to be left alone. You’re contemplating making a cup of coffee when your wife walks past you towards the…

The Original Feminist Miss Prissy

It’s 11.30am and I still haven’t had a shower and let me tell you, I need to rectify that situation asap! :) And it’s not because I slept in, or because I couldn’t be bothered, it is because of Youtube! Yep – that video sharing website is the reason why I smell so badly! I was actually up early this morning, had breakfast, and was putting on a loud of washing when I heard the most bizarre sound.…

If you can’t remember or have no idea who she is – Michelle released 2 top selling albums in the early 2000’s.

How Could Ellen DeGeneres Get It So Wrong?

Mr Wrong! Imagine my surprise when I discovered this “chick flick” released 20 years ago, starring Ellen Degeneres and Bill Pullman. I would love to say it was a blast from the past but thing is, I had never heard of it. Where has this movie been? You would think with such prominent actors the movie would have been on Netflix, Bigpond Movies or even free to air, but no. It has been hidden in…

Fifty Shades Darker Is Nearly Here

Only a few more weeks until the latest instalment of author E L James Fifty Shades series Fifty Shades Darker hits cinemas, and I am not sure how I feel about that. I am looking forward to the wickedness – I mean come on, those scenes were pretty hot, but as for the controlling, patronising and arrogant Mr Grey… I could just as soon leave it. I recently watched Fifty Shades of Grey just so I…

Who Should Make The First Move?

One of the most interesting things to happen to me this week was listening to a group of 20 somethings discuss dating. I couldn’t help but think “Was I like this at their age?” I had a sudden urge to call my friends and family and apologise for being so young and naive :) I quickly snapped out of that thought because I realised – you’re not supposed to know it all in your early 20’s. Hell, even…

Commander in Chief by Katy Evans

I want to say a great big thank you to one of my regular readers, Cheryl, for recommending this book. I am so glad you introduced me to Matthew and Charlotte :) With all the current drama in the U.S regarding Donald Trump and his Twitter Feeds – the man has no filter – it was refreshing to read a story that was uplifting, refreshing and full of love and hope. I actually read this two part series…

10 of The Most Bizarre Dating Shows

Let’s face it, dating shows can be entertaining. Some of you may tell your friends they are nothing but trash, but I bet you race home after work just so you can find out who each contestant is. I have :) You analyse their hair, their clothes even how they introduce themselves… we can’t help ourselves. There is simply something undeniably amusing about watching people make complete fools of…
