Saved by the Pack: How 50 Dogs Helped Me Find My Purpose by Lee Asher

If you're an animal lover, some books don't just tell a story, they make you want to reach through the pages and hug every furry face you meet. Saved by the Pack: How 50 Dogs Helped Me Find My Purpose by Lee Asher is one of those books. Rather than focusing on a single rescue or a handful of pets, Asher shares the stories of dozens of animals who changed his life and reminds readers why rescue animals leave lasting pawprints on our hearts.

Many readers already know Lee Asher through The Asher House, an organization that provides rescue and rehabilitation for animals in need. He also has a huge presence online through his popular social media videos, but this book goes beyond the photos and short clips his audience has come to love. Through the stories of 50 rescued animals, he shares the personalities, quirks, challenges, and triumphs that make each animal unforgettable. These aren't just dogs in a sanctuary. Each one is an individual with their own story to share, and Asher brings them to life in a way that makes them feel like old friends.

One of the things that makes this book especially appealing for animal lovers is the way the dogs practically leap off the page. Whether it's an energetic pup getting into mischief, a senior dog finally finding a safe place to call home, or a special-needs pet proving his worth, each story highlights the resilience and unconditional love animals are capable of giving. Be warned: you're likely to find yourself wanting to snuggle every single dog featured in the book and if you're especially soft-hearted, you might need to grab a tissue.

The beautiful photography adds another layer to the experience. Filled with adorable photos of the rescue animals, Saved by the Pack is every bit as much a visual treat as it is a memoir. Dog lovers will find themselves lingering over the pictures, studying every floppy ear, goofy grin, and soulful expression. It will look great of a coffee table, ready to be picked up whenever you need a smile.

While the animals are undoubtedly the stars of the show, Asher also shares pieces of his own journey. He writes openly about growing up with ADHD, dealing with bullying, and navigating a career path that ultimately left him searching for something more meaningful. His story serves as a reminder that sometimes the things we're meant to do in life find us when we least expect them. In this case, that purpose arrived on four paws, over and over again.

Warm, uplifting, and packed with heartwarming rescue stories, Saved by the Pack is sure to appeal to dog lovers, pet owners, and anyone who enjoys stories about second chances. Between the inspiring tales, lovable animal personalities, and page after page of adorable photos, it's easy to see why so many readers are connecting with this book. Saved by the Pack is available in hardcover, Kindle, and audiobook editions and currently holds a solid 4.9-star rating on Amazon. If stories about rescue animals make your heart melt, this is one title you'll want to add to your collection. Grab your copy on Amazon today!

Unclaimed Mail from Fun Delivered - Sunglasses & Shapewear

 My mom is back with more tiny packages from our Fun Delivered box of unclaimed mail.

The first package contained a Lake Vibes shirt. Cute, but we're beach people, so we'll be donating it. Next up was a box containing four pairs of kids' sunglasses in different colors. The final package contained a pair of shapewear panties.

With so many packages left in our Fun Delivered box, I'm excited to see what other surprises are still waiting to be opened. Check out the video below to see everything Maryann found, and stay tuned for more unclaimed mail adventures!

Last Michael's Mystery Box

 For my final Michael's Mystery Box from the fall batch, I had a special helper join me at the beginning of the unboxing. My cat Zelda was determined to inspect the box before I could get to it, making sure everything met her approval first!

As for the contents, this box continued the trend from the rest of the batch. It was packed with flowers. There were roses, tulips, lavender, and plenty of other varieties in just about every color imaginable. From soft pastels to bright, vibrant blooms, there was no shortage of floral arrangements and stems to sort through.

While I was secretly hoping for a little more variety, there's no denying the value packed into these boxes. Anyone who enjoys crafting, decorating, wreath-making, or floral arrangements would have a field day with the amount of merchandise included. The flowers were in great condition and would normally cost far more than the $10 price of the mystery box.

Overall, I'd say the Michael's fall mystery boxes were a solid buy. This final box may have been flower-heavy, but it still contained plenty of usable items and offered an incredible value for the price. Plus, Zelda seemed to enjoy helping with the unboxing, even if she was more interested in the box itself than the flowers inside.

Check out the video below to see everything we found, and keep an eye out for future mystery box adventures. I'm still hoping to spot one of those Halloween overstock boxes someday!

Phantom eBook is FREE & Now Available on Audio!

The Phantom was a musical phenomenon that Rebecca had always found enchanting. She had no idea that her life was about to mirror the play that was her obsession. When her high school drama club chooses "Phantom" as their annual production, Rebecca finds herself in the middle of an unlikely love triangle and the target of a sadistic stalker who uses the lines from the play as their calling card. Rebecca lands the lead role of Christine, the opera diva, and like her character, she is torn between her two co-stars-Tom the surfer and basketball star who plays the lovable hero, and Justyn, the strangely appealing Goth who is more than realistic in the role of the tortured artist. Almost immediately after casting, strange things start to happen both on and off the stage. Curtains fall. Mirrors are shattered. People are hurt in true phantom style. They all seem like accidents until Rebecca receives notes and phone calls that hint at something more sinister. Is Justyn bringing to life the twisted character of the phantom? Or in real life are the roles of the hero and the villain reversed? Rebecca doesn't know who to trust, but she knows she's running out of time as she gets closer and closer to opening night. Only when the mask is stripped away, will the twenty-first century phantom finally be revealed.

Get your free copy of Phantom on Amazon. Find the audiobook on Amazon or Audible.

Falling Star eBook is FREE to Celebrate the Release of the Audiobook!

Drew DiPalma feels like he's living a lie.

He's had it with his Hollywood persona, the high-maintenance women, and his sleazy agent. To escape the madness, he flees to a tourist town he'd often visited as a child. He never expected to find love on that little island. Then he stumbles upon Lainey alone on the swing set of a deserted beach.

After a dozen internet dating disasters, Lainey Riccardo has given up on romance--until she meets a West Coast hunk who has no trouble winning her heart. But Lainey only knows him as Drew, not the Oscar-nominated actor who's constantly scandalized in the tabloids.

When she learns the truth, will the small town Jersey girl be able to accept Drew's fast-paced life? Or will the truth drive her away forever?


Narrated by fellow Jersey girl Emily Valdes! Available on Amazon and Audible.

Unclaimed Mail from Fun Delivered - Nail Polish & Ear Buds

 Today's batch of unclaimed mail from my Fun Delivered box was definitely a mixed bag, proving once again that you never know what you're going to get with mystery packages.

The first package contained a few random items, including some type of metal tool or automotive part and a pair of gloves that looked a little worse for wear. 

The second package held a bottle of purple gel nail polish. While the color was pretty, the smell was toxic. Not every package can be a home run, and when you're buying unclaimed mail, you have to expect a few duds along the way.

Thankfully, the last package was much better. Inside was a pair of wireless earbuds. They're not a name-brand model, but they work well enough for everyday use. Considering how often my kids misplace earbuds, I'd much rather hand them an affordable pair than an expensive set anyway.

While this wasn't the strongest batch I've opened, that's part of the fun of unclaimed mail. Some packages are packed with great finds, others are a miss, and every now and then you get a little bit of both. Stay tuned for our next batch of Fun Delivered unclaimed mail and let's see what surprises are waiting inside!
