Gotcha!

Happy 2018!!! I hope you have had a fabulous 2018 so far. My year is turning out exactly like last year. I still work. I still clean. I still eat too much. However, I am 42 days sugar free. I didn't want to wait for the new year to begin my resolution. I tend to fail miserably if I set my cap too high. But, amazingly, I made it through the holiday season without one cookie, one slice of pie . . . who am I kidding? One slice? If the pie was sitting in front of me I'd (normally) confiscate the whole thing. Not this year. This year I ate my veggies. Am I craving Oreos right now? Heck yes. But, I think I can thwart those pesky sugar reflexes until I reach my 60 day sugar-free (and substitute sugar free) goal. Here's to 2018. Anything is possible.

Meanwhile, I have been reading and reading and reading. I read the entire Tall, Hot & Texan series by Christie Craig. It all begins with Gotcha! Now, I will say, I'm not entirely sure who edited and formatted the ebook version. It looks like she might have bought back her rights, typed it all over again and republished. That's my theory. Because there were several, reoccurring blunders.  But the story was strong enough to keep me going. And I kept going to the next two novels in the series (which did not have those blunders.)

Macy Tucker was five years old when her beloved grandfather dropped dead in his spaghetti. At twelve, her father left his family in the dust. At twenty-five, her husband gave his secretary a pre-Christmas bonus in bed, and Macy gave him the boot. To put things lightly, men have been undependable.

That's why dating's off the menu. Macy is focused on putting herself through law school—which means being the delivery girl for Papa's Pizza. But cheesier than her job is her pie-eyed brother, who just recently escaped from prison to protect his new girlfriend. And hotter than Texas toast is the investigating detective. Proud, sexy . . . inflexible, he's a man who would kiss her just to shut her up. But Jake Baldwin's a protector as much as a dish. And when he gets his man—or his woman—Macy knows it's for life.


See you next time,
