I'll wait.) https://youtu.be/kHLHSlExFis Back with me, yeah? Whatcha think?! Gritty, sexy, imaginative, rife with religious symbolism, for sure. I actually love it, though I [...]

Unholy Warrior (Unholy Inc #3) by Misty Dietz
First review for Unholy Warrior 🙂
I heart this series so much! This one is especially close to my little classical history/mythology loving little heart!!!
Alexios may be the by blow of the king but he has been acknowledged by his father. That just sets him up to be a target for the spite of the Queen. She has her heart set on her daughters taking the throne, not the son of a slave.
Sophia is the daughter of the other ruling house of Sparta. The lines have never mingled before but Sophia has her heart set on Alexios and she also wants to revolutionise the way that Sparta is run and abolish the abandoning of children to the elements, amongst other things.
Sophia is no elegant maiden, she is clumsy and a klutz but so open hearted, everything a Spartan Princess should not be!
Alexios does his damnedest to avoid Sophia but he can’t help…

Well done Burger King! #stopbullying
We've all been exposed to people who rant online. Usually it's because they believe in something passionately...which of course isn't bad, in and of itself. But a blustery delivery of that belief can be downright polarizing, right? I tend to tune out those who scream their beliefs or social justice concerns at me, and I [...]

Scars
When I first heard Alessia Cara's "Scars To Your Beautiful," I was starting to envision Book 4 in the new paranormal romance series I'm working on (release to begin this summer! Yay!). While all good stories feature characters with internal scars, Jinx and Nicholai's book will really delve into the impact of our scars—how they shape our choices and how we [...]

Gimme a piece of your mind! Misty’s Romance Reader Survey
Hey gang, with summer winding down and the start of school just around the corner (God bless all you teachers out there!), I'm in the early phase of plotting Book Two in my Northern Outlaws series, and it got me thinking...What do romance readers want right now? Big question, huh? But I'll never know if I don't ask, [...]
you are not a label.
So lately, I feel like I've entered a new phase of my life. I don't know what to call this other than to say I'm more attuned to people's energy - the vibe they put out - than ever before. I pick up on this element far sooner than my other senses gather information about someone. [...]
Travel: the best education
Our family recently returned from a week-long vacation to Miami and the Florida Keys. Our school district did away with spring break this year, so I was hesitant to pull the kids from school (all that dang homework!!), but a little voice kept telling me it would be worth it. I'm so glad I listened! Travel is [...]

Seven Things I’m Grateful for this Week
When life hurls one challenge after another at us, it's hard for even the most upbeat among us to stay positive. It's kinda been like that in my household lately. But last Saturday, when I woke up, the sun was shining and I was tired of feeling tired and beat down. I decided that instead of focusing on the [...]
New Excerpt from the Guardian Series
Because I'm doing the absurd and waiting until every book is finished before I release the Elemental Guardian series, I figured I should at least scatter a few breadcrumbs from time to time. Here's a scene toward the beginning of TERRA (Book 1) where Jessie, a celebrated mixologist, finds out what Nate (her supernatural boss) has [...]
Seeing Yourself. Loving Yourself.
I'd been meaning to write a post about the unrealistic burdens of modern beauty conceptions for weeks, but today when I came across another video about how critical women are of themselves, I was like, Damn. Are you hard on yourself? Do you have a little voice in your head that tells you you're not [...]
