Mystery that keeps you guessing
Format: Kindle
This book kept me up reading too many nights because I just couldn't stop reading!! The majority of my reading list consists of murder mysteries. I love trying to figure "who done it?" right along with the main character. My track record for "solving" the case is pretty good but this one had me stumped. I loved that! The author does a great job of giving detail without being overwhelming. The story is of a ex-socialite (Sarah-Booth) who is willing to do anything to save her beloved home. (Think Scarlet O'Hara) In the process of trying to come up with funds, she uncovers a two-decade mystery. She will risk everything, not only to save her home but solve the mystery.

Amazing 'quick' tan
My all time favorite tanning lotion. Won't use anything else. Yes your hands turn brown as you put it on due to the coffee extract but so do you after laying in the sun for less than an hour!!! Ready for tan lines & summer sunshine!

Great product
I love this product. You just have to remember that it will discolor your towel, but it does come out in the wash.
