Goodreads Synopsis:

Sometimes days happen to you,  and sometimes you happen to days

With this thought in his heart, Edward T. Cozzlebottom sat in his cottage and composed a love letter to his neighbor, Ezmerelda Wimbish. The creation of this simple letter set into motion events that will lead both Mr. Cozzlebottom and Mizz Wimbish on perilous and wondrous journeys outside their idyllic village in the Vale.

Their simultaneous adventures carry them down opposite paths, where they encounter the Wicked Tinker, the Walrus King, the Trench Systers, and ultimately, the enigmatic leader of the Black Lodge, Abraham Jefferies. It is the mysterious Abraham Jefferies who understands the full power and meaning of the letter, and it is his will to destroy it that places Mr. Cozzlebottom, Mizz Wimbish, and all they have ever known on the verge of abyss.

Poetic, philosophical, and entertaining, Deep Into the Heart of a Rose takes you on a journey to a place both strange and familiar. A journey that leads you both away from - and back to - yourself.

I had a hard time finishing this book because it doesn't make any sense to me and I apologize for being so harsh but I'm being truthful. It was hard for me to get into and even harder for me to follow.I'm sorry to be so negative. I do however love the poems in the book!

The story line was a little confusing to me and I never felt like I got anything cleared up for me to fully understand the story.I do however love the poems in the book!

Desperate Housedogs Review

Desperate Housedogs

Published: October 17, 2011

Goodreads Synopsis:

When Caro Lamont, former psychologist turned pet therapist makes a house call to help Kevin Blackstone with his two misbehaving German Shepherd dogs, she expects frantic dogs, she expects a frantic dog owner, she even expects frantic neighbors. What she doesn’t expect is that two hours later the police will find Kevin dead, his dogs impounded; and that as the last person to see Kevin alive (well, except for the killer) she is suddenly a person of interest, at least according to Homicide Detective Judd Malone. 

Sparkle Abbey is the pseudonym of two mystery authors (Mary Lee Woods and Anita Carter). They are friends and neighbors as well as co-writers of the Pampered Pets Mystery Series. The pen name was created by combining the names of their rescue pets - Sparkle (Mary Lee’s cat) and Abbey (Anita’s dog). They reside in central Iowa, but if they could write anywhere, you would find them on the beach with their laptops and depending on the time of day either an iced tea or a margarita.)

My Thoughts:

   

This book was good, I like that the main character wasn't a detective just couldn't resist knowing the truth. I like that there were two hot males mentioned in the book. I love that the lead character Caro was a pet psychiatrist, and I understand that the talk about the animals was necessary for making the character who she is but I think that there was just a tad too much about the animals and not quite enough about the plot of the story as far as the mystery goes but I still enjoyed it and would read any other books written by this author.
