Betrayal - Danielle Steel review

-
I'm not a critic and I'm not acting like one but I want to share my own views as an average reader.
My over all rating would be 3/5. 
It has a good plot, but the story's pace is too slow. It wasted a lot of lines to describe the same character over again. I actually get the point why the author did it, it is to emphasize 'who' the character is but for me, I guess it wasn't really effective. I have thought of giving up reading this book but because of my good impression on Steel's Family Ties I decided to continue doing so. Again, as I said the plot was good and it has impressive twists. 

Would I recommend this to a friend? Yes.

"At thirty-nine, Tallie Jones is a Hollywood legend. Her work as a film director is her passion and the center of her life; one after another, her award-winning productions achieve the rare combination of critical and commercial success. With no interest in the perks of her profession or the glitz and glamour of Los Angeles, Tallie maintains close and loving relationships with her college-age daughter and her aging father, and has a happy collaboration with Hunter Lloyd, her respected producing partner, confidant, and live-in lover. Rounding out the circle and making it all work is Brigitte Parker, Tallie's devoted personal assistant. Friends since film school, they are a study in contrasts, with Brigitte's polished glamour balancing Tallie's artless natural beauty, and her hard-driving, highly organized style a protective shield for Tallie's casual, down-to-earth approach.

As Tallie is in the midst of directing the most ambitious film she has yet undertaken, small disturbances begin to ripple through her well-ordered world. An outside audit reveals troubling discrepancies in the financial records maintained by Victor Carson, Tallie's longtime, trusted accountant. Mysterious receipts hint at activities of which she has no knowledge. Soon it becomes clear that someone close to Tallie has been steadily funneling away enormous amounts of her money. In the wake of an escalating series of shattering revelations, Tallie will find herself playing the most dangerous game of all--to trap a predator stalking her in plain sight."

Code of Ethics of the Medical Technologist (New Version)

-
Only a few people post this on the internet and well, I decided to share this instead of waiting for some other people to do so. I am a victim of “Memorize the code of ethics (med tech) and we’ll have a quiz next meeting” and I am not aware that there’s a new and an old version. I searched on the internet and got my hands a copy of the code of ethics and, unfortunately, it’s an old version and I never knew it until the day of the exam. So future RMT’s who still haven’t got their hands on the new version, here it goes: Board of Medical Technology Code of Ethics (New Version) As I enter into the practice of Medical Technology, I shall accept the responsibilities inherent to being a professional; I shall uphold the law and shall not engage in illegal work nor cooperate with anyone so engaged; I shall avoid associating or being identified with any enterprise of questionable character; I shall work and act in a strict spirit of fairness to employer, clients, contractors, employees

Shantahl Rejuvenating Set // It's a MIRACLE SET for me

This is my first time writing a "beauty blog", because I never really had the confidence to share how my skin look like without makeup. Somehow, I have been learning to build my confidence because I started having clearer skin (just recently). My mother spent, thousands of money just to repair my skin, especially when I was a teenager. We've been to dermatologists from popular hospitals you can remember and even went to clinics specializing skin care, but after all those thousands of money spent, my skin never improved. I gave up trying. Now, that we are on a lock down, I took the initiative to try out something new and thought "Why not let my face peel off a bit?". That's when I got my hands on Shantahl Rejuvenating set. I was hesitant at first but, it really worked like a miracle for me. Shantahl Rejuvenating Set has: 1 - Night Cream 1 - Sunblock with SPF 30 1 - Rejuvenating Toner 1 - Kojic Soap I got my set for only  485.00 at 1'PRIMO

 Hi! If you have read my review of Shantahl Rejuvenating Set  you probably saw how B-A-D my skin used to be and how I had no confidence to show my skin without make up. The good thing is now, I have gained confidence ever since showing that skin of mine hoping to help others find good ways to have much better skin. I have also linked where I bought my Rejuvenating Set which is here: Shantahl Rejuvenating Set Original  they give special discounts specially when you are a repeat buyer. Anyway let's start reviewing Lionesse Gem Skin Care White Pearl Facial Peeling What is in the box? 1 - Lionesse Gem Skin Care White Pearl Facial Peeling - 60 ml And here is how it looks like -> Sleek and nice right? Worth its price. However, in my own opinion one thing lacking on this container is a small spatula for hygienic purposes. Especially for users who dislike dipping their fingers on it. And there goes the small orange pearls.  They aren't really white but maybe it was called so becaus
