"Accidentally Yours" by Susan Mallery

It's a novel about the lengths mothers will go to too be able to save their children at all costs.

Kerri is the widowed mother of Cody (nine yrs old and has Gilliar's Disease), and she has lived her life for him and plans to do anything to save him. Even if that means stalking Nathan King and getting him to put fifteen million dollars towards a cure for this disease. The only problem is that she's been having a hard time getting an audience with Mr. King and when she finally does he acts like he could care less. However, Nathan's problem is more then him not caring about her, it's that his own son has already died from the same disease Cody has and after his son died he promised to not care about anyone or anything other then himself. So how in the world did Kerri suddenly get under Nathan's skin? Furthermore, how will Kerri keep her miracles coming when things suddenly stop going her way?

3.5 out of 5 stars! It's a funny, touching, sweet, and romantic book that I couldn't put down! Definitely one of my favorites by Susan!

Avalon High—The Movie!

OMG .... I just saw this in Meg Cabot's latest newsletter:

Avalon High—The Movie!

A Disney Channel Original. Scheduled for a late fall 2010 premiere!

Ellie, after transferring to Avalon High, is shocked to discover that her new classmates are reincarnations of King Arthur and his Court. Her school is a contemporary Camelot, and it’s up to her to solve the mystery before the notorious traitor Mordred wins again!

If your not familiar with Meg's novel that this movie is based on called "Avalon High" then I definitely recommend reading it! 5 out of 5 stars!! You gotta love creative new twists on classic stories!

I can't wait to see this movie!

Check your local bookstores since you may or may not be able to get Elizabeth Scott's new book right now.

I say this because ..... I have pre-ordered Elizabeth Scott's latest book called "The Unwritten Rule" last week (since Elizabeth along with everyone else said it would be released on March 16th) ... so I went into my local bookstore today to pick it up (along with another book that just came out) and they told me that the release date isn't until April 6th or at least they aren't able to sell it to me until then. =0/ So, if you have yet to pick up your copy then I recommend you calling your local bookstore to see when they'll be getting it in.

I mean, at least I'm getting the book at some point so I'm not upset about the situation at all but it kinda stinks all the same. =0P

Anyway ... if you have it already ... you lucky dog you. *hehee*

4 out of 5 stars! This is the first book I've read from this series and I am a little addicted already to how the author shaped the tale. I hope the others are just as good. I loved Dayan & Corinne as a couple! They were soo cute! Great plot! I liked how the writing flowed from one persons thoughts to the next like you were watching a movie - very clever!
