Hello, darlings! When RockstarPR contacted Traveling With T a couple of weeks about THE VILLA, I was instantly drawn to the cover (to me, it looks like those watercolor pictures you see at vacation spots- so soothing. So pretty. So wonderful!) Intrigued by the cover, I took a quick look at my TBR pile and knew the odds of fitting this book in was like nil. Non-existent. Not going to happen. And yet… the cover kept calling to me. Well, because the folks at RockstarPR are well… rockstars- they had the option for a book spotlight- and I was all “Boom! Signed up!” Continue reading →

The Blonde

Everyone knows the iconic images of Marilyn Monroe. The one of her singing a breathy and sexy “Happy Birthday, Mr. President”. The white halter dress standing on a subway grate with the white dress billowing around her. The beautiful blond hair. We know Marilyn Monroe as the sexpot. The beautiful. The gorgeous red lips. The breathy voice. Oozing sex appeal from every pore. These are the images that are called to mind when many people think of Marilyn Monroe.
