Author Bio:

Kacey Shea is a mom of three, wife, and part-time bookkeeper who resides in sunny Arizona. She enjoys reading and writing romance novels as much as her son loves unicorns, which is a lot.

When she's not writing you will find her playing taxi cab to her children while belting out her favorite tunes, meeting friends or family for food and to share some laughs, or sweating it out in the gym. Kacey finds that picking up heavy weights repeatedly is good for her mental health as much as it is for the physical.

Kacey one day aspires be a woman hand model in a sexy photo shoot. You know, the woman's hand raking across the muscular back or six pack stomach of the male fitness model. Yep, that hand.

Until that day comes she will continue writing sexy, flirty romance novels in hopes to bring others joy!

Review:

The writing style and just the writing in general in Home Is Where You Are draws the reader in. The author can be talking about something ordinary that you do everyday and yet it’s still interesting. It was also realistic. Not in the way that there wasn’t any paranormal elements(although that as well) but the fact that the characters aren’t perfect and do have their flaws. Their reactions are also realistic. And it’s not hard to imagine hearing about this somewhere. It wasn’t hard to get into the book because of this.

Anna’s chapters seemed to almost balance out Dean’s chapters, but that didn’t mean that Anna’s chapters were always happy happy, everything’s great. What I mean by that is that while we get Dean’s perspective on his homelessness, we also get to experience what we have but through someone else’s eyes. This gives us a chance to get both perspectives and not just base Anna’s reactions on our own.

The dialogue between the two was light and fun sometimes which balanced out the more difficult topics. This made things easy to read as there was no down in the pits of despair. But at the same time it wasn’t so happy that you didn’t believe it could actually happen.

Then there were moments that just had your heart pounding. There weren’t many but there were enough that you honestly felt like these were more your best friends than just characters in a book.

I loved Home is Where You Are. It’s a well written book that will have readers glued to their books or e-readers. It was just released today and you should give it a chance!

Less Than Nothing by R.E. Blake

(Image found on Goodreads)

"I’ve been living by my wits for the last four months, and I’ve learned that you never back down when you’re protecting what’s yours, or the world will take everything from you." -R.E. Blake, Less Than Nothing

Sage has been living on the streets for a little while now and she's learned a lot of lessons, but most importantly protect her spot, or else her street musician gig may be up. But then Derek invades her territory and she's frustrated. But when he offers her a deal that will make more money for her how can she refuse? And then when he asks her to go to New York, what else can she do? But secrets are hidden and they'll come into the light one way or another. Can Sage and Derek ride them out or will all their dreams be for nothing? Find the official description on Goodreads.

I found that the style of writing really drew readers in, grabbed their attention and held it. It was really easy to make connections with Sage at least, if only because of one personality trait or another. The narration was lively but it wasn't super peppy and it was amusing to boot. Sage's internal monologue could keep readers amused for days on end.

Then there were the difficult truths. Especially about different attitudes towards homelessness. Admittedly we don't really have any homeless(or none that I know of) in my small town. But I never really thought about how homelessness was perceived or how they were treated. So seeing through Sage's eyes and the different situations that both Sage and Derek find themselves in was wonderful, and attitude changing.

Then there's the fact that Sage could be wallowing in self-pity or working in other ways to help herself survive. But she doesn't. Or at least not often(for the self-pitying I mean). This made her a really good character to read because I don't know about you but people who go why me? And poor me all the time can be a bit annoying.

Now that I've chatted on about Sage, let's get on to Derek. I definitely was a fan of him in the beginning but started wavering towards the middle and now I'm not sure what to think. I'm definitely looking forward to the next book if only to see what happens and how Derek changes or doesn't.

I was very much shocked several times in this book, mostly towards the ends. There were a few twists that I did not see coming and I almost gasped when they were revealed.

Less than Nothing was a great read, one that I would be happy to read again.
