|
Olivia believes she can have it all. A successful business and a loving husband. But his ex-wife is not ready to walk away, and continues to threaten any chance he and Olivia might have at happiness. And when Olivia discovers she’s being stalked, secrets her mother took to the grave come creeping out.
The baby Nikki and Carlos have been planning for is finally on the way. One problem…the paternity is at question. And Carlos doesn’t know it. To protect her secrets, she’s ready to sever ties to both men that hold the key to her heart. But one half of her heart won’t let go, and the other half is willing to fight until the end. The birth of her child may lead to the death of her marriage. One test has the power to determine the truth. One test will change their lives forever. Deception will bring separation, and destiny will mend two broken hearts. And in the end, everyone must work together to create a beautiful blend. |
BEJEWELED III EXCERPT:
“I don’t think it’s anything to worry about, Ivy. He’s just a harmless homeless man. They do travel around, but maybe it isn’t the same person you saw at the Buckhead location,” Raymond assured Olivia over dinner that night.
“I don’t know, Ray. He not only looked like that man, but he sounded like him, as well. There was something about his eyes. I know I’ve seen him before,” she debated.
Raymond speared a chicken breast chunk with his fork and put it in his mouth. He wore a thoughtful expression, and his mind appeared to be a million miles away.
“What is it, Ray?” she asked, setting her fork down on the side of her plate. She removed her napkin from her lap and walked into the kitchen to grab the pitcher of tea from the refrigerator.
Walking back into the dining room, she noticed that her husband was still far off in thought.
“Hey, what’s on your mind?” she asked again, refilling his glass with tea and then her own.
“I’m heading out of town this weekend,” he murmured, and then took a sip of his tea.
“What?” she asked, looking up from her task, inadvertently spilling a few drops.
“I said, I’m heading out of town this weekend,” he repeated, a little firmer and louder than she thought was necessary.
“To Boston?” she asked quietly, wiping her spill with a paper towel.
His trips back to Boston to visit his ex-wife and kids had become more frequent lately. He had visited two weekends prior. She believed the only reason he hadn’t gone last weekend was because he had to speak at a seminar for fire professionals. Each time he returned home, he came back in a bad mood.
“Yeah.”
“Why do you have to keep going up there, Ray?” Olivia whispered. She suddenly had lost her appetite and removed her plate from the table.
As she entered the kitchen she turned to look back at her husband through the breakfast nook. She thought she saw a glimpse of guilt on his face.
“They’re my kids, Ivy. I thought you understood that. How else am I going to see them?” he asked, frustration overtaking his expressions.
“I do understand that, Ray. But I also understand that you haven’t fought for your rights. Why don’t you take her to court? She cannot keep battling you and refusing to allow you time with them unless you return to Boston,” Olivia argued back.
“I told you once before I don’t want to drag her to court. She might’ve been crap as a wife, but first and foremost she’s the mother of my kids. And I will give her the respect she deserves for that, if for nothing else.” He scooted his chair back and grabbed his plate to bring it into the kitchen where she stood. From the looks of his plate, she wasn’t the only one who had lost their appetite.

Part three of a great read. Ms Olivia has encountered some rough patches in her journey to open her shop in Buckhead. However and unlikely protector helps to save her life and answer some age old questions. Wes Nikiki and Rory find their paths crossing and entwining . Carlos makes a discovery that changes his life forever. Nikki finds out she has a lot to be grateful for and to share with others who may be on the path and road she has been on. Lies have a way of hindering forward progress but God can turn the worst situation around if you let him.
I have loved this series and hope Ms Ramsey will keep us undated on the lives of her characters.

Bejeweled: “A Beautiful Blend” (The House of Bejeweled Book 3), is just as intriguing as books one and two. Wow, is all I can say about the results of Nikki’s pregnancy. I loved the development of the all storylines, and I can’t wait to see what Chelle Ramsey has in store for book four. I had a feeling about Olivia’s stranger in shining armor from his first introduction at the Bejeweled’s Buckhead worksite when he helped to prevent her falling when she slipped. If you haven’t had a chance to check out this incredible series, don’t continue to sleep on it. Great writing once again Mrs. Ramsey…

Bejeweled was a great series and I loved all three books. The author held my attention throughout. I tried to read them slow but lost the fight with each one. Very pleased with the way they ended, wanting you to read more. Ms. O was a wonderful woman and mentor. I was so happy to see her find love. Fell in love with Wesley and little Sunni. I was so proud of Rory for standing her grounds and being there for her man when he needed her...definitely a special woman.
