"Diamond Duplicity" is another WINNER by Erica Lucke Dean!!!

This novella by Erica Lucke Dean and Elise Delacroix is such fun. It is a short hot, sexy and passionate work of erotic romance. The characters are brilliantly written and likable. 

It combines a bit of mystery, romance, action and sex in a wonderful combination that is, I think, a winning formula.

I really can't wait for the next one to be released.

Throwback Thursday

Since its Throwback Thursday and everyone is posting old high school photos and baby pics of themselves, I thought I would post what I know best: old skool music. 

Here is a song I couldn't get out of my head when I was young.......
"Ghetto huh, sucker!" Lol. No clue what the song is about but I still loved it. Enjoy!

A Little Jax for Your Hump Day

I don't even wanna think about Season 7 being the last season of Sons of Anarchy. So instead I'm just gonna think about this:

Happy Hump Day xoxo

Fanfic Rec Wednesday – Help Wanted

Today's  rec comes to you via my friend Jodi (@joderss). She is another one of those lightning-fast speed readers so, although she started reading fic around the same time as me, she has read so much more.

Title: Help Wanted

By: jaxon22 (@sophiejax)

Why is it good?:

Do you remember the first fic you ever read?  I will never forget.  It was not that long ago that I discovered the wonderful world of fan fiction.  Imagine my delight in finding that my favorite characters could live on and on in any conceivable situation? 

My first journey into fic started with what I consider a fan fic classic, Help Wanted. 

Help Wanted is an all-human fic with an Edward who is damaged and arrogant, but in the redeems himself.  A Bella who is a little bit silly but is strong enough to be with Edward.  A hilarious Jasper, one of my favorite characters of the story.  An Emmett, who isn’t perfect, but he’s family, and the rest of the crew coming and going as the story progresses. 

This fic is a long one, coming in at 64 chapters not including outtakes.  I didn’t mind that because I enjoyed the time I spent with the characters and the story moved along with the proper amount of humor, drama, angst and lemons.  When I say lemons, I do mean lemons.  Jaxon22 knows how to write them and they were all over this fic.  In some fics the lemons take you out of the story, but I didn’t feel that way in this one. 

I can say that I love that this was my first ever fan fiction.  It set the bar high for the stories to come and opened my eyes to what fan fictions could be.  I have read other fics by Jaxon22 and have enjoyed every one of them.  Don’t let the length of this deter you, spend some time with these characters, you won’t be sorry.

Thanks for the rec, Jodi! This is another one that I started but am not done with yet. So again, take her word for it and check out Help Wanted. 

Happy Birthday, PurpleBrina!!

You may or may not know that today, April 9^th, is Fandemonium Network's resident Music Monday blogger, PurpleBrina's birthday. 

There are a few guys who wanted to say something to mark the occaison...

Have a SUPER birthday, Brina!!

While it’s fun to imagine hot super hero men fighting over you, here are a few messages from people who love you in real life:

Brina~ it should go without saying how much your existence has brightened my life. You are one of the greatest friends I’ve ever had and I would be more than just lost without you. Happy Birthday. I hope you are able to truly absorb everything we all have to say. You are loved so much. Enjoy your day.

Imagine if we would have gotten another time slot to line up for Fan Camp...............
If you wouldn't have been so friendly, funny and warm, practically inviting us to talk to you......
If we wouldn't have bonded over our mutual joy and misery, we were all so pitiful.......
Well, I can't....
I won't.....
My days are filled with your purple......
Happy Birthday, my dear......
Love you lots!!
Jodi

B... When I first made the decision to go to LA, I knew it was going to be an amazing week. I also knew I would leave there having gotten to know some great people who shared the love of the Twilight series just as I did. What I didn't expect was to meet a select few who would become some of the best friends I would ever have. We spent an awesome week together and I am so happy to say that the friendship we formed has never died.
Brina, I am so honored to call you my friend, one of my best friends, and I am so thankful that we can look forward to many, many years together building what we started in LA. Love you, baby. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!

B, It’s been great getting to know you on group me and I can't wait to meet you in June!  Here's wishing you a great day and a wonderful year.

"There's a light that never goes out" I can't think of anything more fitting to describe Brina.  She radiates love inside and out and surrounds everyone in her presence with warmth and comfort.  Our meeting was pure happenstance and I've been thanking the heavens ever since.
Warmest birthday wishes to a special lady in my life and a bit more of the song as it reminds me of laughing and dancing with her.
'Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive'
Happy Birthday Supa B!  Flove you...

To my beautiful B, Happy Birthday. You are such an amazing, strong, beautiful person and I am so incredibly happy to be able to call you a friend. Now picture me singing, 'THEY SAY IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! All while wearing a rotation of masks that resemble all the hot smexy men you love. #TEAMBRINA

Brina -
We found each other on twitter and became fast friends. Twilight brought us together, but friendship keeps us together. Love of hot men, fan fic and great music solidify us as friends. Fancamp wouldn't have been the same without you, I am grateful for that time we got to hang.  You are the bravest and strongest gal I know. I love you to bits and I hope you get all you wish for and dream for today and every day!

Happy Birthday girl! #TeamBrina

Love ya -

Jenn
