Uncover a New Way to Shop with MyEveryNeed.com #myeveryneed

Uncover a New Way to Shop with MyEveryNeed.com #myeveryneed

This is a sponsored post written by on behalf of MyEveryNeed.com. While I am being compensated for the post, the opinions and words are all my own!

I know it may sound a bit sterotypical, but I love to shop. It’s something I’ve always enjoyed since going out shopping at big department stores with my grandma when I was younger. There’s nothing quite like finding the perfect outfit or accessory that you’re looking for. It feels like it was just made for you! I love that feeling. Shopping is a stress-reliever for me, even when I’m just ‘window shopping’.

As much as I love shopping, I don’t get to do it as often as I …

The Dark Gifts: Birthright by Willow Cross

The Dark Gifts: Birthright by Willow Cross

Author Willow Cross has stopped by today with a teaser from her book The Dark Gifts: Birthright!

Another growl rumbled through her chest as she took a step forward and to the side.

The man’s hands went up in front of him. “Now just calm down.” Still eyeing the door, he made a running break for it.

She slammed it shut before he could make it out. Cat-like, she pounced. She saw nothing other than the red haze covering her vision. Hot, slightly bitter fluid poured down her gullet, squelching the burn. Dizzy with the nearly orgasmic feel of it, her jaw tightened and she felt her teeth sink deeper into his flesh. His shrieks could not block out …
