I’m Liberty Parker. I have been an avid reader for most of my life. When I was younger I used to sit and fill spiral notebooks full of stories for my grandmother. As I got older I took the jobs needed for raising my boys as a single mom until I met my now amazing husband. I started off by promoting authors, then I took up blogging and reviewing for authors. Which has lead me down the path of writing and creating characters and telling their stories. I love getting creative and working behind the scenes with my characters and bringing my imagination to life.

This review of Rock House Grill is from Amazon.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
If you love a multi-layered story that pulls you into its world like I do, choose The Rock House Grill. Rock House Grill (its name derives from the fabulous menu of rock songs played there) is the center of the Shay and Aden’s story.
Aden House is a talented chef who has loses direction when he becomes the hot shot chef of a TV cooking show. As a devotee of those shows and their fast paced competitions, it’s easy to see how Aden could be sucked into that world without realizing how it would change his life—for the worse. Shay McDowell is a divorced part-time EMT and part-time head of the house at another local restaurant. When her cheating ex’s current squeeze makes trouble for Shay at her restaurant job, getting her fired, Shay applies for work at The Rock House Grill which is floundering since Chef Aden, distracted by his TV gig, was involved in a life threatening car accident.
Little do either of them know but when Aden had his near fatal accident, it was Shay who assisted in his jaws of life rescue.
I won’t give away more of the actual story. Ms. Stone has filled this slow burning romance with relatable people and realistic situations. With Shay’s dear friend, Joanna and Aden’s twin sister Olivia, other work friends and the aforementioned villainous ex, rounding out a full menu of characters, Ms. Stone has sprinkled moments of realism, sweetness, suspense, pathos, friendship and most of all, resilience. Aden needs to figure out how to recover use of his legs, save his restaurant, and importantly, preserve his friendships. Shay, a spirited survivor, is more talented than she believes, and in spite of misfortune, never lost her giving nature or gift for friendship. We get a look at some other relationships in this story and a bit of a preview of another story which I hope will be coming soon.

Lyndi Alexander hosted me on her blog
lyndialexander.wordpress.com/2020/10/19/adventures-in-ice-cream-yum/
Talking about Adventures In Ice Cream. Here's a teaser.
Thank you so much for inviting me to your blog. Sometimes it’s the mundane things in life that are an adventure. Stepping out of your lane and trying something new. Starting a business. Trying a new recipe. Facing life head-on. Eating ice cream on a cold day. I know it’s October, but it’s never too cold for a bowl of chilled sweetness. Believe it or not, my favorite is plain ole vanilla, not too adventurous, huh.

These three books are all quite different and that's the way I roll. I enjoy books from across many genres and here are two paranormal and one contemporary. As usual, I'll never post something I don't enjoy. There's no hard and fast rule about who enjoys what. I'll always give you reviews on those I like. The other's well my momma always said if you don't have something nice to say don't say anything at all.
Woke- by Peggy Jaeger 🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉 Contemporary with a nod to Sleeping Beauty
I loved the story. Waking up from a coma, Aurora faces struggles physically and emotionally. She's such a strong character. The world around her has changed so much. She needs to reconcile her girlish and immature past to the more mature woman she's now is. What happened to her friends? Who drugged her and why. There's so much mystery and suspense to keep the reader hooked. Especially when she bumps into the handsome Kincaide Enright. What secrets does he hold? The secondary characters were also well written. I recommend Woke by Peggy Jaeger and think you will enjoy it.

Cursed Prince- by D.N. Crawford 🦉🦉🦉🦉 Paranormal Romance
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2020As a fan of fantasy and especially elves, I downloaded this book. Immediately, I was caught up in the story. To me, it is a unique telling in a dystopian, modern manner. Both main characters are well developed and engaging. There is subtle humor. The world-building is exceptional. There is some minor cursing, and no explicit sex scenes, which I appreciate. I read this book in two days on a camping trip and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Midlife Magic - by Victoria Danann 🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉 Paranormal Romance
I loved this book. I'm a fan of Ms. Danann's Knights of the Black Swan series and she didn't disappoint me with Midlife Magic in this new series. Sometimes poignant, sometimes laugh out loud I enjoyed this book about a woman find herself on her own but then given a second chance at an exciting and adventurous life. A page-turner from cover to cover, I look forward to reading the next book.

Thanks for stopping over. As many know we were on Pete's retirement celebration trip. Two weeks starting in Niagara Falls, then off to Bar Harbor Maine. After a few days there Boston Massachusetts and finally Mystic Connecticut. Tighten your seat belts folks and keep your hands inside the ride. We'd been looking forward to the trip for over a year, but as usual nothing goes as planned. If I were French, I may say c'est la vie.
First, Niagara Falls did not disappoint. Below are some pictures I took during out three day stay. It was awe inspiring. If you get a chance to visit, do. I finally got to see not one but two of the Great Lakes, Erie and Ontario. They were warmer than I expected but still cold. No way was I going in, Hali however dipped her paws in.
Tuesday we headed out again. An overnight was planned in Strafford New Hampshire. We never made it. Just north of Marlborough Mass., cars began honking and waving. Thank you to the unknown people who did. 2Hoots rear wheel blew it's bearings, and where there's smoke there's fire. Our trusty fire extinguisher and Pete put it out, but now here we were at 9 p.m. sitting on the side of the road.
I'm going to give you all a word of advice here. Buyer beware. Not my camper, but the services we'd contracted. AAA you should be ashamed. We paid a lot extra for RV roadside assistance. Hello! America is in your name. One call to the local club and we were informed "we don't have RV in our service." Wait. What? Yeah, to bad for us. The agent who answered told us we could try submitting to our local chapter. Thanks a lot. But never fear! We have Good Sam's Roadside assistance too! Don't get excited. After calling we were again informed our plan didn't cover the trailer only the tow vehicle. Again... Wait! What? You're an RV club. Nope, see ya. Wouldn't want to be ya. Pete and I looked at each other in disbelief. At least Good Sam gave us some numbers to call. Most didn't answer since it was so late.
But that said we found a young man via - and here's a shout out -
TED'S OF FAYVILLE, INC. 300 TURNPIKE ROAD, SOUTHBOROUGH, MA 01772
And especially to Geoff who responded to our distress phone call was patient, understanding and kind throughout the experience. He got us off the road and to the next step for repairs. Also a shout out to Pro Team Suspension and Tires. I couldn't find their website but they worked hard to get us back on the road Wednesday though were unable to locate the parts. The axel needs to be replaced. That said we came home and left my baby in Mass. where we expect a call Tuesday.
At that time we'll head up to get 2Hoots. Bar Harbor and Boston are out, but Mystic is still a possibility. Stay tuned. Anywho, here are some pictures we have and we'll always have Niagara... And stay tuned. We may yet get Mystic. You can't let things get you down. AAA and Good Sam haven't heard the last of us. We'll forge on with our trips and certainly be more cautious about reading the fine print. There's still so much to see of our great country. We've only touched the possibilities.

I took a step outside of my usual genres because I'd heard about and was intrigued by this book. Thank goodness I've been happily married for 26 years. I fear I wouldn't survive today's online dating. That said, I have someone close to me who has been through this. Let me tell you, this story may be fiction, but knowing what I do through this person, it can all be true. Middle Ageish is at times funny, at times poignant, at times heart-wrenching, but at all times interesting and entertaining. I love Sunny. She is smart, funny, strong, yet vulnerable. Even when her sometimes snarky mind is mean (she is a bit judgy with weight), you can't help rooting for her. The men she meets you think can't be for real, but they are. The situations far fetched? Nope. Ms. Goldberg seems to know what she's talking about. I love the world-building and the food descriptions will have your mouth watering. When she finally gives sweet Luke a second chance, you'll be rooting for both of them.

Now time is ticking away so let's get to it...
I never realized we had such a thing for time and clocks in our house until I went looking. These are a few of the favorites. The two old-old ones came out of my husband, Pete's, grandparents. The tall one came back to our home recently. It had been in the family's rec-room then went to an aunt and now is back in its original spot. Several years ago Pete gave me the Banjo clock as a gift. And Goofy is one of my favorite wristwatches. You remember wristwatches, right?

You can’t ask for more from a story.
🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉
I haven’t had a flavor yet I didn’t like from the One Scoop or Two series but Always, Almond Fudge really touched me. There is a scene with the main male character, Anthony, that made me pause, put my hand over my heart and go, “Aww!” You can’t ask for more from a story.
The main female character is Merry and even though young, she is quite admirable with a work ethic, happy disposition, and loyalty to family, and yet doesn’t let go of her dreams.
I also like the style where the present day mother is handing down the oral history of their family to her son and the connection he finds with his relatives.
I loved this short, sweet story of a world I didn’t know, but now miss. Read this book. You won’t be sorry and you’ll dream of a time and world of care, innocence and love. And maybe begin to crave a bowl of Almond Fudge ice cream and someone to share it with.

Talking about It’s all in the delivery.
People love stories. Whether spoken or written for thousands of years, stories have been passed down. Sometimes they’re fun, sometimes educational, but it’s all in the delivery. Below is one of my favorite scenes from Rock House Grill. How much less of an impact would it have if John just walked in and lectured Aden. “Buck up, man. Life is hard. Get it together.” Not so much, right?

I had a Character Interview with Nathan James on Althea Willams Blog at actuallyalethea.blogspot.com/2020/08/rainbow-sprinkles.html
Interviewer “We are in the small New Jersey community of Lake Unami. Recent big city to small-town entrepreneur Nathan James is in the interview hot seat. Welcome, Nathan. You have a beautiful apartment.”
Nathan “Thank you, and thank you for having me.” He squirms in the chair a bit. “I’m not used to being the center of attention.”
Interviewer “Don’t worry. The readers don’t bite. Well, most of them anyway. Tell us who you are.”
