The guinea pigs have finally arrived! Wow… they are so small and mostly head. They are only about four or five weeks old, two boys, not brothers, and their names are Coco and Henry. I have been trying to take clear pictures of them, but they will not sit still and their very dark fur makes it next to impossible to take a picture that doesn’t look like a black blob. My baby bassets are in love. I knew they piggies needed a break from all the traveling, but trying to tell two kids they can’t hold the baby guinea pigs they have been waiting so long for is impossible. Right now I can hear them squeaking happily in their cage, and by the all the poop I see in their cage, they had quite a time exploring. I will post pictures as soon as I can get a clear one.

A skittish former federal agent… An eccentric, playboy CEO… A conspiracy with deadly ramifications…
Leaving the Office of International Operations seemed like a great way to avoid bureaucratic hassles, red-tape, and murderous psychopaths. Unfortunately, things don’t always work out the way they should.

Enter eccentric, playboy, CEO James Martin. Martin Technologies is a multi-million dollar corporation that James Martin has nurtured from the ground up with his workaholic tendencies. But now that Mr. Martin’s life is being threatened, what’s a guy to do besides hire an attractive, feisty, former federal agent to be his new security consultant and personal bodyguard.

A mysterious group called the Givers is on the hunt for the killer, and they have their sights set on Arden.
On the run from the Givers, Arden discovers something dark lurking in the shadows of the school. Finding the real killer is the only way to save her life.
