"I watched the colored lights and sparkles coming off of Sebastian in the dark water, as the ocean began the process of rebuilding his tail. I longed to join him in the water, to wrap my arms around him and let him carry me under the sea; but I wasn’t ready. For him, the ocean was a home; for me it was death. Without being able to transform, the ocean depths would suffocate me, the pressure collapse my bones and flesh."

After her parent's accident, Clara is shipped off to live with a grandfather she never knew, in a town she can't pronounce. In Ireland, she soon discovers that her mother's secret past is filled with tragedy. Trying to track down the truth, she begins going through changes of her own, until she's not sure just who - or what - she is anymore.

Then she meets the mysterious Sebastian, who won't leave her alone, and Ethan, who apparently can't stand to be near her. Both of them seem to have supernatural powers, and she's not quite sure whether they want to kill her or kiss her. Just when things are getting interesting, someone attacks her, and she gets a revelation that destroys everything she thought she knew about the world, humanity, and herself.

>>>Explore the magical coast of Northern Ireland, and an new interpretation of the Tuatha de Danann, the Fomorians, and mermaid mythology.

>>>An innovative paranormal romance with a brand new magical system, and a version of mermaid biology that actually makes sense.

This is PART ONE of the first book (Shearwater), of the Ocean Depths Series.

Ausdom M05 Bluetooth Over-ear Headphones

AUSDOM M05 BLUETOOTH HEADPHONES

#AusdoM0BluetootOveeaHeadphones

***My Personal Review***

I am not one to use bluetooth and haven't ever been, even though my phone is capable of it.  These however made me think twice because I am one of those people who prefer headphones over any kind of earbuds.  If given the choice I will choose headphones over earbuds 100% of the time.  So I thought these would be perfect to try out.  They look just like a regular pair of headphones and work great - the sound that comes through them is clear and I did not have a problem with cutting out or interference. 

The best part I found about these is that they are hands-free headphones, everything you need is right on the ear parts ... volume, on/off, even a jack for a cord.  They are padded on every side including the top band that sits on your head and the part that sits over your ears are both pillow-padded.  I found these to be extremely comfortable and not bulky as it would seem - but that is just me.  The sides are adjustable so this would fit almost anyone except maybe children.  I also love that the ear parts will twist and lay flat.  I highly recommend that anyone who loves bluetooth or even those who have never tried it check these out on Amazon!

Santamedical Mini Penguin Massager with two modes

MINI PENGUIN MASSAGER

#massager

***My Personal Review***

This is a great little massager for using around the house or for travel purposes.  It's actually very small, only weighs about 1/2 pound and it has 2 vibrating speeds.  It does not have a harsh feeling - I have a lot of stress in my back because I work at a desk and sit a lot, so I have been using it on my lower back area, I like to wedge it in between my back and the chair and let it go to work, it actually feels SO good and it doesn't hurt.  The 2 speeds are nice because some people are unable to take a lot of vibration so the first speed is perfect for them.  The second speed is very high and it definitely gets the job done!  I have to give this little massager 5 stars because it is portable, highly effective and inexpensive compared to full body massages :)

Purifyou Glass Water Bottle with Silicone Sleeve

PURIFYOU GLASS WATER BOTTLE

#purifyou

***My Personal Review***

When I got this item in the mail the first thing I did was drop it a few times just to see - call me crazy but I wanted to see how sturdy it was.  Now it was COLD outside, below zero weather and the package was freezing already and I dropped it on my desk, on the counter and the floor and nothing happened!  The silicone sleeve really does it's job well by encasing the bottle and the best part I found about this is that the glass bottle keeps your drinks very cold.  I chose the purple color and I love it, I have been keeping it full of water in my fridge and grab it whenever I leave, it's great.  My daughter even loves it!  The only downside I have with it is that the lid is twist off instead of coming with a sipper but the nice part about that is that it doesn't spill.  They have many colors, so go grab one now.

Bryce (Scandalous Boys #1) by Natalie Decker Cover Reveal :)

 

Welcome to the cover reveal for

Bryce (Scandalous Boys #1) by Natalie Decker

presented by Swoon Romance!

Be on the look out for this YA/NA crossover good girl/bad boy romance!

 

 

Bryce Matthews doesn’t do the whole nice boyfriend thing. Chocolates and flowers—girls can forget all that. And he certainly doesn’t care about the gossip and rumors that follow him at school and around town. If anything, the talk amuses him. Bryce isn't lacking in confidence. He knows himself and he knows his limits.

One of those hard limits is Madison Issac. Bryce can never have her, and he's perfectly fine with that. Sometimes the fantasy is better than the reality anyway.

Madison Issac thought she was a pretty good judge of character. But she's surprised at how gentle and comforting resident bad-boy and next-door neighbor Bryce Matthews is when we finds her crying in the park.

Maybe there's more to Bryce than people think? So Madison begins to wonder.

Can a guy like Bryce ever change his ways?

Can a girl like Madison really be into a guy like Bryce?

With hearts and reputations on the line, this kind of love can be scandalous.

Thin Botanicals Body Wrap

THIN BOTANICALS BODY WRAPS

***My Personal Review***

These are body wraps that you wear on your abdomen area.  You basically just take them out of the package and peel off the backing and stick them on.  They are not uncomfortable, I have tried wearing them with my sample package and I have noticed a couple of things like my sugar going down slightly as well as feeling a little better.  These are made with all natural ingredients from herbs and plant extracts so they naturally detox your body and they are supposed to get rid of cellulite and help you lose weight and feel much better.  I did not notice a weight loss during the time I wore them, but I have a very hard time losing weight.  Give them a shot and see how they work for you :)

MOSCOW MULE MUG VIDEO REVIEW

#coppermug

***My Personal Review***

This is a beautiful 100% copper mug with no linings or coatings - it is very rustic and for me takes me back to the time of the old west where this was what they used.  I collect these mugs now, and I just think the different styles are gorgeous and I love to just sit and look at them shine.  When you look inside the mug it's almost like a mirror and the outside has a rustic design that kind of reminds me of small hammer marks - the dents make it look that much more antique.

I really love these and I highly recommend them as they are great for mixed drinks - they were originally created for the Moscow Mule drink but they are so great at keeping any drink nice and cold.  These would make a great addition to any gift set for people to keep and use :)
