REVIEW:

Our Song - Casey Peeler

4 sensational stars 

This was a quick, little hot novella. 

Belle is the opening act for Jake Bryant, the IT country music star. When they arrive in Belles hometown for a little break things begin to change for them. Belle is smack dab in the middle of good old rock and hard place. She knows she wants Jake but deep down in her heart Chase has always been the one. Will Chase step up to the plate and make his move or is it already too late? Will Jake show her who he really is and beat Chase to the proverbial punch? 

You'll have to read this one to find out for yourselves.  Casey put a whole lot of story into such a small book! I felt like I was at the swimming hole and honky tonk. I loved the family feel and the honest to life feel of the book! Way to go, Casey, can't wait to read more!!

Excerpt

As Jake finishes his finale, he takes a bow and runs offstage toward me. He lifts me off the ground and spins me around.

“Glad to see me?” I ask.

“You have no idea what it’s like to look out into the crowd and find eyes that you know. Really know, Belle.”

“If I didn’t know better, Mr. Bryant, I’d think somebody had a crush.”

“If I didn’t know better, I’d think you liked it.”

“What can I say? I’m a sucker for a country boy in tight ass jeans that knows how to work a stage.”

Featured Swag Supplier and a Giveaway: LightShine Designs

The LightShine Designs Story:

Jewelry, Photography and Graphic Design

as told by Rebecca Lee Mincey, owner

I started making jewelry in November of 2011. It started with wire wrapping stones that I had which were raw from my trips mining in upstate North Carolina.

Soon after selling a few pendants, I branched on to buy charms, crystals, glass, and other jewelry findings to create jewelry.

I started up my FB Business page in late 2011. And then opened my Etsy shop in February of 2012.

I came up with the LightShine Designs name one night lying in bed. I had been trying to decide the name for a few weeks and randomly the children's song "this little light of mine." Popped into my head, and it was born. Sounded catchy and bright so it stuck !! My business motto is..

 "Not everyday shines, but that doesn't mean you can't shine everyday."

I have been doing photography since I was 21. I am self taught, and mostly deal in natural and fine art prints.

I recently started doing portraiture for people in my local area. I strive to be one of a kind, unique, versatile, and affordable.

I also offer various forms of graphic art using my own prints or files sent to me by clients.

I aim to satisfy every customer/client I have. Custom orders are done to client specifications, and I welcome all input in order to create the pieces they envision. I work with authors to recreate pieces featured in their books or to make pieces which symbolize what their books mean to them. I welcome custom orders of all types from necklaces, charm bracelets, earrings, bookmarks, you name it.

Rebecca has created a site geared towards combining great books with her graphic designs and jewelry making.  This offers additional exposure for authors and amazing giveaways for readers with LightReads.

Our Sunday Swag Supplier: Luminous Beads

If there's anything I love, it's a good giveaway.  As part of the book world, giveaways have become my life.  I love the excitement of the fans, I love making people happy, and I love being creative.  One of the best ways to do that is to offer fans a little something more.  That's why I am always looking for  new and different swag. 

 Today...Luminous Beads!Simple said...they are gorgeous.  I checked out the store and had to tear myself away after looking at five pages of beautiful bling.  The book bling...to die for.  And because I know you love some good story swag, Kimberly of Luminous beads has kindly agreed to donate something super special.  

Our first post ever was the new release of Katie Ashley's Don't Hate the Player...Hate the Game.  It only makes sense that our first Swagtastic Giveaway would feature a Katie Ashley inspired piece.  This one is from the books The Proposition and The Proposal.

Here's everything you need to know about Luminous Beads:

Luminous Beads started in February 2013. My best friend (Carol) is a huge crafter and lives in Ocean City Maryland. We grew up together in Long Island New York. Been friends for over almost 30 years.

She told me about these new beads she found and couldn't find anyone else that was really using them. I asked her to send me a bracelet because I really wanted to see them for myself. I love the colors and the luminosity of them, so I knew she was on to something. We decided to start a business together hence Luminous Beads.

This is my first time making jewelry and I'm obsessed! I love creating new pieces. I have always been creative and have had little ventures since a young girl making macrame plant hangers and my mother would sell them at her Mary Kay meetings back in the day. LOL

I have always been a huge reader, but reading romance was what I would do on vacation. All the books that I read were how-to-books, spiritual books and motivational books.

Then March 2012 a girlfriend of mine told me that I had to read Fifty Shades of Grey. I never read a book like that and it forever changed me. I have been a book whore ever since, looking for the next fix. I've read over 300 books since last year. I always loved to write, and wanted to take a crack at it but fear gets the best of me. People have told me I have a gift but who knows. Just being around these unbelievable authors was so enlightening I just may try.
I heard about this book signing event called "Wicked Girls Weekend" here in Orando. I had no one to go with but decided to go anyway. I had just finished R.k. Lilley's Up in the Air series and was obsessed with Mr. Beautiful. OMG! So I wanted to make a bracelet for Rebecca since she was going to be there.

And so the journey began that I ordered some charms for Rebecca's books and for Fifty Shades of Grey. I made a few bracelets sold them at the event and then gave Katie Ashley and Raine Miller a book charm bracelet. They were so happy and of course I was delighted to meet them.

Katie approached me a few weeks after the event and asked to work with me to create a bracelet for The Proposition & The Proposal.  Rebecca told me that if I send her a bunch of bracelets she will sell at her book signings. I'm more than thrilled. Both of these women are incredible, funny and very down to earth. The author I would like to make swag for would be Raine Miller, her and I have a girl romance and will forever be bonded over something that I'm not sure if I can ever say. But let's just say I gave her an education. LMAO. I know she has her own swag and don't know who she deals with but I'm hoping one day she will ask me. Her swag is beautiful and her packaging is to die for!! Class act lady all the way!

This is the first of our weekly giveaways.  They are only going to get bigger and better.  So, stick around, spread the word, and most importantly...ENTER TO WIN!
