Warrior Rising (Goddess Summoning #6) By: P.C Cast (Book Review)

Image
 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: The Goddesses have had it with the Trojan War. So much devastation all because of some silly male egos. The worst of the bunch is that cocky, handsome brute Achilles. But the only way to stop a man like Achilles is to distract him with something far more pleasurable than combat? Enter Kat, a modern girl from Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Goddesses transform her into a Trojan princess, having no doubt that she'll capture Achilles's attention. But can her independent spirit match the unquenchable fire of his epic rage? Goddess only knows? Who doesn't love a story starring sexy Achilles? Better yet? Falling in love with him! I am absolutely in love with Greek mythology and have always been partial to Achilles and his great accomplishments but it's such a tragedy that he died so young.  I have really enjoyed this series thus far but this book kinda left me feeling unfinished. The whole premise of the book was to distract Achilles wit...

Attending Church For The First Time In Years

If you read my previous blog post then you know I have been on a journey of self-healing and discovery. I have to say that God works in mysterious ways but if you keep faith then you will slowly understand his plan and appreciate his influence in your life.  I was baptized in a Catholic Church as an infant and did attend church when I was a child but neither of my parents did and I eventually stopped going. I've endured a lot in just twenty-nine years of life. My relationship with God has been shaky for many years but since changing Provinces and moving to Ontario I've started listening to him more and praying for guidance. He has shown me the way and protected me in many ways and situations. Many of which include people that I should stop surrounding myself with and guiding me on my divine path.  We're not even halfway through January and already I feel like I've grown a lot more in just a couple weeks. I have been consistently praying everyday and night for guidance a...

Goodbye 2025 and Hello 2026!

This year has been an eye opener to say the least. I entered 2025 in a relationship with the man I thought I would spend the rest of my life with. I thought I found my person. My future husband and the father of my future children. And I am ending the year single but grateful to God for removing the veil and showing me the truth of what my future with that person held. All I saw was sadness and lost opportunities. I saw a future for myself that I vowed I would never have. There were a lot of red flags that I just ignored because I always try to see the best in people even if their bad parts hurt me. But there were so many reasons for me to leave and I just kept giving him chance after chance. Love shouldn't be that difficult. And love isn't if it's with the right person. I spent two plus years with someone who had a lot more to gain out of our relationship than I did. The right man for me won't just keep taking from me without pouring back into me. I was the cruise dire...
