ABOUT BISHOP'S QUEEN (Releasing October 25th)

“I can't shake the feeling that somebody's watching me.” One second Ella Leighton’s life was normal—the next, not so much. A social media maven who made her living saving sea turtles, the decision to join a reality TV show was a good one for the cause. But for her… the adjustment wasn’t easy. Her publicist used phrases like online personality. An overnight celebrity. Everyone explained that was why she couldn’t shake the feeling. But none of their excuses could explain the letters. The pictures. And then her stalker crossed the line, triggering the demand for security. Bishop O'Kane didn't expect to come face-to-face with his ex-girlfriend when Titan sent him on bodyguard duty. The woman he once loved, the same one he walked away from years ago, was now his responsibility. Opposites in every way, they couldn’t be more different, but maybe they had never needed each other more. With the FBI falling short in their investigation, the Titan team must rally around the woman with millions of followers, protecting her from her own as Bishop and Ella forge a path of second chances and forgiveness, unburying the past in order to survive.

Poldark Season 2 Episode 1

Loved seeing the scenes from last season. I forgot a lot!

The scene before the magistrate is hilarious. Poldark's saying "Screw you", and the guy knows it.

Poor couple. First their daughter dies, and now a possible prison sentence. Damn George!

Thanks for that visual, Aunt Agatha.

Well, Francis, George would help because he's in love with your wife.

No use crying over spilt milk (or your possible hanging) when there's work to be done!

Take that, George. Seems Ross has loyal servants, even when they've been turned out.

Who else needs a shower after every scene with George?

Rossie, you might be worth more dead. Sheesh!

Who is this pretty woman?

Yeah, Ross, family is family, in the end.

Who else wants to move to Cornwall?

Demelza's not just a "doxie", George.

Such a cute couple. And so hot! Juxtaposed nicely with Elizabeth and Francis, who can't even have a conversation.

Aww, Francis loves his cousin. He understands why Ross can't stand to be around him, knowing Julia died because his wife got ill trying to save Francis's family.

This isn't good-bye, Ross.

"On the road again..."

Knew you were lyin', Demelza. Hi, Verity!

I like this lawyer already.

You've come down in the world, Dwight.

Whatever works, Ross. Fight fire with fire.

Hello! Francis got his backbone.

Boom! Caroline's not just a pretty face. Like every female on this show, she's got brains and beauty.

Demelza's father's face is classic. She doesn't need your help, ya drunk.

Francis, what are you up to?

He's talking about love, George, in case you were wondering.

What just happened?

To Wait or Not to Wait

I'm re-watching "Recipe for Love", a Hallmark Channel movie about a celebrity chef who falls in love with the ghostwriter for his cookbook. Ironically, I'm reading an ARC by the same name.

So you can see why I'm in the mood to talk about restaurants (and I'm hungry). In the movie, the chef says he got "slammed" the night before. And it got me thinking. We New Yorkers are always in a rush. So we want our food to come out of the kitchen fast. But how fast is too fast? You don't want cold food, or undercooked meat, right? So the longer the chef takes to make your meal, the better chance I think you have of it being good. But you don't want to sit there for 45 minutes, either. Especially since, in this carb-obsessed society, a lot of restaurants aren't giving out breadbaskets anymore. No bread is a travesty!

No wonder they say a lot of restaurants don't make it past their first year! The industry is practically built to make the chef fail. Unless you pre-make some dishes, how can you hope to keep up?

Review: One Step Behind

One Step Behind by Brianna Labuskes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ha! He's so shocked that she's calm.

He's totally already in love.

Madame LeCroix is probably Mrs. Cross.

Haha! Take some dancing lessons, Peterson!

Yeah, the couple who commits crime together, stays together.

Good for her. I love how she stands up for herself.

That's what happens when you go all over Town asking questions, Beatrice.

I hate Rathburn.

That was a fun wedding ceremony.

She's definitely not the scared-little-woman type.

Oh, nicely played, Ms. Labuskes. I had forgotten about that guy.

I received an ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Hire the Disabled!

What is it in Hollywood? What is the point of casting?

I haven't seen "Me Before You", but it's been the subject of a lot of controversy. Spoiler Alert: He kills himself. Because he's paralyzed. I find that notion highly offensive. So because he's paralyzed, his life is over? Huh. I guess I shouldn't have bothered getting that Master's or making an effort to meet all those celebrities. Broadway shows and restaurants? Nah. Apparently I should just be sitting in my house, feeling sorry for myself.

More than the whole "paralysis is worse than death" thing, why are the disabled actors not getting the parts of the disabled characters? The kid in the wheelchair in Glee? Yeah, he can walk. So can Sam Claflin. While he's very good-looking, he's not paralyzed! Even Hollywood is saying disabled people aren't good enough for the workforce, even to play themselves!

There is a new show coming out, called Speechless. It's about a boy with cerebral palsy, and his family. And guess what? The actor actually has CP!! Hallelujah! I can't wait!

I Joined a Gym-Kinda

A new gym opened up near me, in Garden City. Lifetime Fitness. Wow! Fancy!

I wanted to join as a member, so I did the tour. Turns out they have a therapy office inside. Yay! Medicare pays 80%, same as any other place. And instead of wasting time while you wait for your session to start, you can use the machines of the gym. They have a pool, but they were concerned about me swimming alone. I did see a couple of young men in electric wheelchairs. They have helpers, so they use the pool.

If you're in a wheelchair, getting fit is a problem. Every therapist has the same exercises for you to do. Bo-ring! I've been looking for something to do to increase cardio. The rope pull was recommended, but it doesn't exactly get my heart pumping. Boxing helps, but I can't really get close enough to the heavy bags to get an effective punch in. The big problem is half the machines are built for people standing who are tall and able to hook their legs into straps.

Anyone else have these problems? What do you recommend to get your heart pumping? (No pun intended.)

Review: Lady Lost

Lady Lost by Jane Goodger
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Great opening!

The duke is seriously creepy. I'm getting pedophile vibes.

Good riddance!

I guess it really sucked if you were sick in this part of York.

Those witches!! Both his wife and this abusive nincompoop.

I get attached to things, too.

She'll be happy later in life, when she looks younger than she is.

I hate his father.

Her sister sounds so changed.

Well that was a depressing proposal.

He was married, but he's practically a virgin himself.

Women had to wear so many layers back then.

Oh no! What caused Pamela to die at such a young age?

Theresa, a pillow? How long do you think you can keep that up?

Holy crap! Smart of you, Mr. M!

Oh good. A doctor with a sense of humor...

Go, Lord Chesterfield!
