Re: Runestone (4:12am July 10, 2011):

Sexy to me is MANY different things. First of all it depends on the situation; is it a black tie affair of the calibre of the Oscars? Is it taking the kids to the park/pool for a day of playing around, laughing and loving? Is it a quiet moment when you see a man (or woman) in the car/train/bus/plane next to you look over and just smile at you? So, as you can see, sexy is as sexy does, for me at least. As far as physical attributes I look for strong hands/handshakes (can't stand a fishy handshake from a man or woman, totaly turn-off!), then their eyes, add a smile and a few laugh lines around said eyes and I may melt!

It's good!!! The saying, "too much of a good thing is bad" is true, so when you shake things up a bit it makes for much more interesting reading! Good luck with the book and congrats on being the first book published by the new publisher!

Re: Wickedly Charming (1:17am May 16, 2011):

OK now THIS is what I call a real twist to the fairy tale books we all read as children!! Can't wait to read this!

Re: Follow My Lead (3:57am May 9, 2011):

Mine would be enemies to lovers probably, although... ALL the SHERBROOK BRIDE series is a favorite of mine and I have all of them. I kind of like the one where the 2 people kinda accidently fall together. My favorite example if this is A KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR by Jude Deverauex, which I've read about a hundred times. LOL
Actually that's kinda how my hubby and I hooked up, we just sort of accidently got thrown together and that was that. We are still on our "first date" after 27 years of marriage. :)

Re: Hidden Embers (1:47am April 23, 2011):

Summer is my favorite season and after this year's particulary cold winter, I can't wait! I love the sun, hate the a/c and argue with everyone else in the house all summer long about whether or not it's cool enough to shut the ac off.
You're going to Salem? One of my favorite places! I can't wait til I can go back!

Re: Tangled Threads (11:49pm April 18, 2011):

OK I watch way too much tv too. Not as much as I used too though. Some of my favorite guys, if I were writing a romance novel, either rouges or the hopeless romantic;

Steve Burton aka Jason Morgan of General Hospital
Josh Hollaway aka Sawyer from LOST (sorry I know he's one of Teresa M's favs too. But sharing is the nice thing to do.)
Maxim from DANCING WITH THE STARS, talk about a BAD BOY! I need oxygen!
The guy who starred as King Henry VIII in the TUDORS, brain dead and can't think of his name.
ALL of the guys, past, present and future from BROTHERS and SISTERS. Rob Lowe anyone? LOL ANd all for different reasons.

Re: Demons Are A Girl's Best Friend (8:25pm April 15, 2011):

I LOVE witch books. I love the history or mis-history of witches and witchcraft. I've had a fasination with witched since I was a young girl and first found out about/read about the Salem Witch Trials. I've even been to Salem (which is beautiful btw) and can't wait to return. Witches are the best!

Re: The Devil in Disguise (4:57am April 12, 2011):

What I like most about an author's newsletter is the back-story, or the hows and whys of the recent/newest book. I think back to my college days and comp 101 and the first thing the professor said was, "Write what you know." And I find for myself, that works. But I'm also interested in how other writers come up with ideas for stories.

Re: Vowed In Shadows (4:39am April 12, 2011):

Claire Frasier from the OUTLANDER series. Look, this woman traveled through time, not just once, but several times to be with the man she loved. Not only did she travel through time, but she went back in time, giving up all of todays luxuries. Now if that ain't love, I don't know what is!

Re: Snowball in Hell (1:22am April 8, 2011):

Hostorical fiction is the BEST fiction around. One of the things which makes it so good is when a new twist o side to a story comes out, which seems to be the case in this book. I'm all for it!

Re: Rock Hard (4:22pm April 4, 2011):

WOW! Sounds like this is an awesome read!
