I haven't seen this movie in almost 30 years not since it first came out till tonight it was good then and still is this is you're kinda If you're into conspiracy theories and this one is the biggest of all time who really shot jfk in dallas texas. You've got great cast big names great script plus direction from Oliver Stone. So if u believe that jfk was assassinated over Vietnam by the cia or not the movie still is criping 30 years later

Condemned and Admired (The Earl’s Cunning Wife) is the first book I’ve read by Bree Wolf. It is an historical story involving both England and France. It is quite a long book if you are a slow reader, just as a reference. 4 stars from this reader.

Our heroine starts as Violet Winters, daughter of Viscount Silox on a night when her mother makes the ultimate sacrifice to save both her and her daughter from a life of hell.
Fast forward the story to Violette Duret and the mission she is on to save her family.

Oliver Cornell is the Earl of Cullingwood and he is tired of the rules and regulations he must follow to keep the titles in his family. He is young and just wants to have fun and enjoy himself, much to the chagrin of his father. When he wakes up on a ship headed to see he thinks he has found his ticket to freedom.

When Violette and her family pull their ship over to commandeer the vessel they don’t realize the precious commodity they now have on board. When the Earl reveals his identity she realizes he could help with her plan.

Violette and Oliver set off on an adventure that brings her right back into the family life her mother fought to remove her from. Will she make it out a second time?

A well written historical story with plenty of description of times in 1800’s England. I enjoyed the storyline of Violette and Oliver and look forward to reading her mother’s story in Trapped and Liberated. I received a copy without expectation for review, any and all opinions expressed are my own. I have a couple other books by Ms. Wolf on my TBR, can’t wait to dive in.

Oliver Twisted (Ivy Meadows #3)

Ivy and her PI uncle Bob are working on a case together as they go undercover on the Get Lit! ship the S.S. David Copperfield. They are trying to track down the people behind a rash of petty theft that have been plaguing the literature themed cruise company. As part of her cover, Ivy is working in Oliver! At Sea!, the ships current play. However, the ship has barely left when Ivy finds her roommate stuffed into their closet. Have the thieves escalated to murder?

This is another delightful romp with Ivy. There are some fun distractions and twists before she begins to put the pieces of the case together, and the way everything comes together at the end is masterful. Ivy’s cast mates are also the suspects, and we get to know them very well, yet the regular characters we’ve met in Phoenix still get to pop in, mostly via a sub-plot Ivy is trying to help with over phone calls. Throw in some delightful humor and you have another winner.
