There is nothing better than a gorgeous book cover. Oh, how I love receiving a pretty cover for my work! Oh, how I love admiring someone elses’ pretty/sexy/moody/awesome cover! Cover envy is rampant amongst us authors. But that is another blog post for another time.
Ahem. Now for the task at hand. A particular trend has caught my eye regarding historical romance covers. I first noticed this one:
Sigh. Beautiful. And available May 25th. I love Anna Campbell. I love this cover.
Next came this particular cover:
Yellow. Frothy. Sexy. I think this is Sherry Thomas’ hottest cover yet! Also available May 25th *Hurry up May 25th!*
Here’s another that snagged my attention:
Lovely. Debut author Tiffany Clare’s book is available September 28th. Can’t wait.
I know I’ve missed other yellow dress covers but these are the three that stood out in my mind. Aren’t they beautiful? Oh, yes…

The Real Housewives of Orange County’s season finale is tonight and I’m sad. I’ve really enjoyed this season. Oh, hell, I enjoy every season with them but this one really kept me hooked. Excuse me while I go on a “Why I Love Them” list.
I used to not like Gretchen but now I think she’s one of the sanest of the bunch. Minus her rant on Lynne. And minus the fact that Slade is her boyfriend. Lauri on a past season’s episode said it best: “Slade wants to be one of the housewives.” TOTALLY.
I actually like Lynne and she drove me crazy last season. I don’t think she’s a very strong parent. In fact, she let’s those girls run right over her. But I like how ditzy she is. There’s something about that ditziness I find…endearing.
The new housewife, Alexis. Oh my. Her husband is a piece of work. If my husband talked to me the way hers does, I’d tell him to shove it. But she seems to like it. And he keeps her in designer clothes and expensive diamond jewelry so it works for them.
I could go on and on but don’t want to bore you. Later tonight after the kids are in bed I’m watching it. Whoo hoo! Until next season ladies!

How I love her! I’m referring to Tabatha’s Salon Takeover and I love love love that show. She’s awesome! And I always brushed it off because I thought she looked so scary.
She gives really good bitch face. She’s harsh but it’s just what these people seem to need. Well, most of them. A recent episode featured one craaa-zaaay salon owner who clearly didn’t want her help. So why did she call her? I don’t get it.
I just went on a DVR blitz with this show so I could catch up. And of course, it’s probably really close to being over. Oh well. And I’ve been enjoying my Real Housewives of Orange County too. I’ve been a die hard fan of that particular group since season one!
Don’t judge me!

I am behind the times. I finally got to see Star Trek this weekend after purchasing the DVD Wednesday at Target. I stood there in the aisle, contemplating the purchase and eventually I told myself just do it and threw it in the cart.
I definitely don’t regret buying it.
What a GREAT movie. OMG. Action packed and funny and sexy and violent and emotional, I loved it ALL. After it was done my husband asked, “What did you think?” because he already saw it because he sucks and went and watched it with his friends while me and the kids were out of town at grandma’s house and yes I still have issues over that okay because I could just tell that movie would be awesome on the big screen and…
Whew. Let me catch my breath.
Anyway, so yeah I loved every freaking minute of it, is what I told him when he asked. I’m ready for the second one. Have they started filming? No? Drat. Guess I’ll just wear out my DVD player and watch it again and again and again.
I can’t remember the last time I felt this satisfied after watching a movie. No joke. It was wonderful. Chris Pine is fine (I just like saying that), Zachary Quinto was a most awesome Spock and I even loved that little alien friend of Scotty’s.
I’m raving like a lunatic. I’ll shut up now. Did you like Star Trek? And don’t tell me if you didn’t, I don’t want you to burst my bubble.

Have you watched it? White Collar is a new drama on USA. I played catch up on the DVR yesterday and watched the pilot. And I really enjoyed it!
Matt Bomer is kind of delicious as the convicted thief/new FBI consultant. The more I think about him, the more I think he is extra delicious. And the chemistry between him and his FBI partner is perfect. I’m hooked!
I’ve been intrigued with thieves lately. It started with this jewelry heist. It’s fascinating – these thieves are smart. Crafty. Of course, most get caught which means they aren’t crafty enough but come on. To even think of this stuff…wow.
Makes me want to write about a thief. Talk about conflict! What do you think?
