We have all been seeing a lot of awful challenges out there, Tide Pod, cinnamon, or whatever unsafe and pretty ridiculous challenges people can think of to torture themselves with. None have ever looked in the least bit appealing to me. Until now. The Lamppost Challenge. All you have to do is wrap your legs around a lamppost and then sit. The challenge is trying to stand back up. It would seem that this is much more difficult than it would appear, of course… it’s a challenge! How else would you get people to sit on a lap post? Those things are dirty. Maybe after a good rain it wouldn’t be so dirty. Maybe it’s more of a winter sport. Only problem is if it’s too cold your legs would be frozen to the pole and that would be awful. Wait…no, in winter you wear pants. Okay, yes it’s a winter sport. Well that’s sad, I wont be able to convince any of my friends to do the Lamp Post Challenge until winter, and I hate being outside during winter. Anything below 50 degrees is just unacceptable for me.

FREE for a limited time
A hot contemporary romance from the author of the acclaimed I-Team series…
Lexi Jewell left Scarlet Springs twelve years ago, vowing never to return to the small Colorado mountain town where she grew up. Now, here she is — over thirty, out of a job and with little choice but to move back in with her eccentric father. Lexi knows it’s just a matter of time before she runs into Austin Taylor, her first boyfriend and her first heartbreak. She’s determined to show him she’s over him — until he steps out of a pickup truck and back into her life, looking sexy as hell in his mountain ranger uniform.
As far as Austin is concerned, Lexi can turn her snazzy little convertible around and drive back to Chicago. After all, she ripped his teenage heart to pieces and turned her back on the town he loves. But from the moment he sees her again, he can’t get her out of his mind. Even her smile messes with his head.
When an evening of conversation turns into something else, Lexi and Austin agree to be friends — with benefits. But as Lexi starts making plans to return to the big city, Austin realizes he’ll lose her a second time unless he can show her that what she’s searching for has been right here all along.

FREE for a limited time
MISSY’S GOING TO LOSE THOSE LAST TEN POUNDS IF IT KILLS HER –
OR SOMEBODY ELSE…
All that hard work is finally paying off for curvy, voluptuous amateur sleuth Missy DeMeanor! She’s lost pounds and inches to fit into her wedding dress, and gained self-esteem and the appreciative eye of more than one male co-detective. That is, they would be co-detectives if Missy were investigating – which she’s not. Because she promised her fiancé she’d leave investigating to the professionals – him, among others. Yeah, Miss, we’ve heard that one before.
In Brianna Bates’ SIXTH Missy DeMeanor cozy murder mystery, Missy’s been working out at a small gym with a personal trainer who, unbeknownst to Missy, has signed her up for the annual Celtic Games and a training weekend to prepare. When Missy finds one of her fellow athletes murdered, she knows she has just the two days to find the killer. By the end of the weekend she’ll learn two things – there are 50 ways the fitness world can be deadly, and what her trainer always says is right: you can always do more than you think.
This adventure takes Missy away from the tea room, the bookstore, and her dog Cody, into a world of burpees, clean and jerks, and proper running form pointers – a world that’s leaner and maybe a little meaner. But sweet Missy’s always the same. Fans of women sleuths, especially light, delicious cozies you can read fast, with no cliffhangers, on-the-page violence or graphic scenes will eat this series up.If you like Gina LaManna, Jana DeLeon, Mary Daheim, and Leighann Dobbs, give Missy a try!
