New Book Alert: Something About You

Something About You by Julie James is due out March 2, 2010.

FATE HAS THROWN TWO SWORN ENEMIES. . .

Of all the hotel rooms rented by all the adulterous politicians in Chicago, female Assistant U.S. Attorney Cameron Lynde had to choose the one next to 1308, where some hot-and-heavy lovemaking ends in bloodshed. And of all the FBI agents in Illinois, it had to be Special Agent Jack Pallas who gets assigned to this high-profile homicide. The same Jack Pallas who still blames Cameron for a botched crackdown three years ago—and nearly ruining his career…

. . .INTO EACH OTHER’S ARMS

Work with Cameron Lynde? Are they kidding? Maybe, Jack thinks, this is some kind of welcome-back prank after his stint away from Chicago. But it’s no joke: the pair is going to have to put their rocky past behind them and focus on the case at hand. That is, if they can cut back on the razor-sharp jibes—and smother the flame of their sizzling-hot sexual tension…


My Thoughts: I think this one sounds pretty good actually. It seems like a fun romance with great humor. I love when the protagonists bicker a lot.

Why I Need a New Mattress

Why do I need a new mattress? Well, I have a hard time sleeping at night sometimes and I'm always moving back and forth, so it would be nice to have a new mattress that would hopefully help fix this. If not me, then my parents because I'm pretty sure theirs is YEARS old and they don't have the ability to really get a new one at the moment so this would be awesome. Mattresses are good. Must-needed items for sleeping. :)
