Finlay Donovan Rolls The Dice (Finlay Donovan, #4)  by Elle Cosimano opens with Finlay Donovan and her nanny, Vero, planning a trip to Atlantic City to pay off some debts, find Javi, and retrieve a stolen car.  But first, they come up with a cover story that backfires miserably.  Finlay and Vero have to be clever and sneaky to accomplish what they set out to do, but will they have to come clean? Thank you, NetGalley, for the Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of Finlay Donovan Rolls The Dice (Finlay Donovan, #4) by Elle Cosimano.  This is one of the books I was most excited about being able to read before it was in stores.  I received the eBook for free in exchange for my honest review. The fourth installment picks up where the last book ended and ties up the loose ends from Finlay Donovan Knocks Them Dead (Finlay Donovan, #3)  . . . so much so that I thought that this was going to be the last book in the series.  However, Finlay Donovan Rolls The Dice ends up having a couple of cliffhangers,

Product Review: Schick Intuition Lemon Berry Breeze Razor

Product Review Schick Intuition Lemon Berry Breeze Razor - Influenster 2
I received the Schick Intuition Lemon Berry Breeze Razor from Influenster.com and Schick Intuition for free in exchange for my honest opinion. When I learned I was receiving this product, I was excited to test it out and couldn't wait for it to come.

The product arrived at my house on Saturday afternoon, but I had just shaved the night before, so I had to wait a couple days before I could test out the Schick Intuition Lemon Berry Breeze Razor. When I finally was able to test it out, I didn't read the instructions, so I lathered up my right leg with soap and water and began shaving. 
 
At first, I was a little apprehensive because I tend to nick myself while trying out new razors, but surprisingly, I didn't nick myself. When I realized I didn't need to lather up with soap or shaving cream, I tried the razor out on my left leg and was surprised to see all the lather coming from the razor. It was a pleasant surprise. The only complaint I have about this razor when it comes to shaving my legs is that it didn't provide a close enough shave and left my legs feeling a little stubbly.
Product Review Schick Intuition Lemon Berry Breeze Razor - Influenster 4

Next, I used it to shave my underarms. I did make sure to wash off my deodorant before using the Schick Intuition Lemon Berry Breeze Razor, and it did extremely well. Normally, I'm left with razor burn or bumps in my underarms but that wasn't the case with this Schick Intuition Razor. My armpits were as smooth as a baby's bottom. Unlike my legs, my underarms got a close shave and were not stubbly.

The final area I used the Schick Intuition Lemon Berry Breeze Razor was my bikini area. My skin in this area is very sensitive, and I'm usually left with razor burn and/or unsightly bumps. With this Schick Intuition Razor, my skin was left smooth with no bumps. I was completely surprised by this in a very good way. 

Pros: No need for shaving cream or soap. No bumps in my bikini area. No nicks on my legs, underarms, or bikini area.

Cons: The razor is a bit cumbersome. Left my legs feeling a little stubbly.

Final Thoughts: Perfect for the more sensitive areas like my underarms and bikini areas but doesn't provide a close enough shave for my legs. With that being said, I'd definitely buy the Schick Intuition Lemon Berry Breeze Razor to shave my bikini area and underarms. Four out of five stars.

Product Review: Mr. Clean: Clean Freak Deep Cleaning Mist - Gain Scent

-
Image
One particular weekend night, I was watching television, and a commercial came on advertising Mr. Clean: Clean Freak Deep Cleaning Mist. In the ad, it mentioned that it would take off grime and dirt after spraying it on the surface and wiping it off with a simple swipe. It went on to mention that it could be used in the bathroom, and I thought, "I really need to try this product on my bathtub." Excited, I couldn't wait to buy it and looked for it at the grocery store the next day while I was getting my weekly groceries. I wasn't expecting to actually find it in stores yet because it usually takes the stores in my area a few weeks to get products in stock after I see it advertised on television. Much to my surprise and delight, my local Kroger Grocery Store actually had the Mr. Clean: Clean Freak Deep Cleaning Mist in stock and in no less than two scents. I grabbed the Gain Scent bottle and stuck it in my grocery cart. Eventually, I decided to use it to cle

Product Review: Naturelle Biotera, Anti-Frizz Intense Smoothing Shampoo & Conditioner

As a woman with wavy hair that frizzes horribly whenever the humidity is high, and let's be honest, the humidity is high in the Southeast, I thought I'd try out Naturelle Biotera Anti-Frizz Intense Smoothing Shampoo  and Naturelle Biotera Anti-Frizz Intense Smoothing Conditioner . I purchased my product at a local Sally's Beauty Supply, and they said that if I didn't like the product that I could return it, which is a win win situation for the customer. What I didn't realize until I was using the product is that for the best results, Biotera recommends using not only the shampoo and conditioner but the leave in conditioner as well. Since I didn't buy the leave in conditioner, my review is solely on the shampoo and conditioner. For those of you who don't like a strong scent, then you'll be pleased with the light scent of this product. The aroma has hints of cinnamon apple. Where I love the scent of cinnamon and apple, I personally don't care for the t

Hidden Beneath (Maine Clambake Mystery, #11) by Barbara Ross is the story about Julia and her mother Jacqueline attending a memorial service on Chipmunk Island for Ginny, who was an old friend of Jacqueline.  When something seems off at the memorial, Julia decides to delve into the cold case of Ginny, and in the process of the investigation, a murder takes place on the island. Thank you, NetGalley and Kensington Books, for the Advanced Readers Copy of Hidden Beneath (Maine Clambake Mystery, #11) by Barbara Ross in exchange for my honest review.  I first became familiar with this series and author while reading a collection of short stories that included one from the Maine Clambake Mystery series.  I was excited when I was approved to read this newest book and was not disappointed. This newest edition can be read as a stand alone as the author does a fantastic job of recapping the backstories of the characters from previous books in the series.  I found all the main characters to be
