The Masters Of Time-Books

I am a  book worm and love to read. When I was a child reading was very difficult for me and I didn't truly start to really read until the sixth grade! I became addict to the black Stallion series and soon after that I always had to be reading or surrounded by books. I love so many different kinds that I really do not have a favorite category. I learn from a young age that books were one of my best friends and for a time I could escape the world and my own personal problems. Reading is like air to me, if I go with out reading I feel with drawn and empty.

I took the time to read a newly released book by Brenda Joyce called "Dark Lover" in The Masters Of Times series®.

If you haven't read the first few books in this installment your really missing out! A mix of fantasy, action and romance into a tidy plot to save the human race from evil, it is addicting!

I first became addict to this series when "Dark Seduction" first came out and raced to find the first book. I also started to read her De Warenne series which was also a weakness. I have found that once I get hooked on a series that I have to collect it all.

In her TMOT series you enter into modern times and soon swept back to medieval Scotland, wondering where the next book would lead. Plus still seeing the people from the past books, come and play a role in the current book.

But warning to those that don't like a strong romance written, then this series isn't for you. Passion is here and there in this books and a few laughs along with it. It sweeps you up with in the first few pages and you won't be able to place it down. I bought Dark Lover yesterday afternoon and just finished it a little over 30 minutes ago.

This series is addictive and you MUST read the first book to start understanding the roles, plots and the entire time line of it. It is worth the read, it is worth becoming addicted to it and if your lucky check out a few used book stores that may have gently used copies to buy.

Welcome to my world...sort of

I live on 5 acres in Northern California, in the Sierra Nevada Foothills. I am married with 2 kids and live right next door to my immediate family. Nothing is ever peaceful around here with 2 kids, a handful of critters and the mellow drama of family.

To say we are normal would be an understatement; abnormal is the way we are.  I lived in this area for 20 years and have grown so tired of the California life style and way. I long to leave this state of chaos and find a place that is peaceful and gives me contentment.

Here at home is at times crazy, funny, insane and at some points enough to make you swear a blue streak from one side of the 5 acres to the next. My two girls are 12 and 6 and to say they are the best buddies would be a lie. It has to be that sibling thing where all you do is fight tooth and nail <laughs>

But to be honest I wouldn't change anything about them at all, I remember as a kid, that my brother and I couldn't get along to save ourselves. In the last few years we have gotten to have a close friendship before that we have a strong dislike for each other. I believe that the things that affect us as children and teens shape us to become who we are. I get tired of people who use the excuse "But when I was a Kid" I feel like slapping them because we as people know the good and bad and I find those that cling to the bad really don't want to change or improve themselves. It their crutch to behave like a fool and sometimes a thief, I have never been able to understand those that refuse to improve their life and spirit.

I have 3 blogs now and plan to use this one about myself, my family and the other critters that call this place home. I have Stillwater Horse that is about my mare and I have Wiseass Corner that is about my donkey boys.  I found that with my writings I at times I can't stay on subject, so I thought why not have this blog for daily rants and laughs/tears on my life and updates about the other critters?

I am 30 (at the time of this writing) I am a Libra and a lot of people think I am a pretty strange person. I don't do well with people, it pretty hard for me to actually make friends. I love animals and it was my life dream to be a vet but sadly I come from a blue collar family and the facts of the matter is that myself or my family couldn't afford sending me to a good vet school. Do I resent it? No, because things that are to be happens and for me becoming a vet wasn't in my life goals. Instead I have become a Natural Hoof care trimmer.  I am pretty quiet and reserved I rarely talk a lot around a crowd of people and have learn that people assume even though I smile and laugh that I am a stuck up person (far from the truth)

I have just learn that my life and my beliefs not too many can or will deal with it. It easier for people to pick on those that are different and I refuse to be treated like a child, so I just keep silent.

Has my life been chocolate and roses? No, it’s been an interesting life with a few large black holes in it but again it helped me be who I am today. I know a lot of people must be thinking, "How can you have a colorful life by 30?"  Not all of us have had the fairy tale life that is of roses, songs and laughter. To say my life been that isn't true but it been a good life and my childhood has been good. My parents taught me right and wrong, being honest and to never give up. All good values that some people in today's world lack and I think the biggest thing they instilled to me is respect but also not be allowed to be walk on and to earn things with our 2 hands not take advantage or use.

Welcome to my life...sort of!
