Re: Home for Christmas (3:40pm November 25, 2013):

Christmas is my favorite holiday. It takes us weeks to decorate the whole house. Each room has a different theme. Gingerbread for the kitchen, Angels for the bathroom, santas for the living room candy canes for the office, bells for the dining room, holly and ivy for a bedroom, and snowmen for the other bedroom.

Re: Fallen Angel (7:49pm December 29, 2012):

I'm greatful for every minute I get to spend with out little ones. (5 and 7 years old.) They're growing up so fast. I blink and they've grown two inches.

Re: The Billionaire's Christmas Baby (10:21pm December 27, 2012):

Looks Amazing! Merry Christmas.

Re: Secret Santa Baby (10:19pm December 27, 2012):

Looks amazing! Seasons Greatings!

Re: Holiday in Crimson (7:20am November 24, 2012):

Watching our girls (5 & 7 years old) on Christmas morning. They try to be so good and on their best behaviors and wear their "Itchy" clothes so grammy can take pictures. And then finally we let them tear into the gifts. We've taught them it's better to give than recieve, so they're so excited when other people open the gifts that they specifically picked out for them. Then after all the excitement and the big dinner, I love rocking them to sleep (they still let us) by the light of the Christmas tree.

Re: Seducing Cinderella (7:55pm August 12, 2012):

OMG, that looks amazing! I want, I want!

Re: A Lady's Revenge (10:31am April 29, 2012):

Not really turned off persay by a vengeful heroine. It really depends on the story itself. If there's a legit reason why, then I'm all for it.

Re: Untouched (10:28am April 29, 2012):

My song is gonna seem silly compared to everyone elses. It's Oats, peas, beans, and barley grows. Because my father who never ever sings, sang it to me as a child and now he sings it to my little girls. It takes me back to much simpler times when a simple snuggle and a kiss would make everything better.

Re: Under His Protection (10:20am April 29, 2012):

I'm one of those there's a time and a place for everything. Including Alhpa heros. I like them sometimes, but not all.

Re: The Vampire Shrink (11:48pm April 27, 2012):

I haven't personally had any encounters, but my co worker Jill's house is haunted. It used to be a foster home and you can hear babies crying, kids running in the hallways, and little girls giggling in the stair wells. Jill is single and there isn't any children living there! And, whats even freaker is that they respond to her. She says "That's enough, it's time for bed." and everything stops...

Re: Chosen By Sin (11:05pm January 31, 2012):

Looks Amazing!

Re: Bride By Mistake (5:17am January 10, 2012):

Looks Amazing! I enjoy reading "Marriage of Convenience" books because I like how the characters slowly discover how much they love each other. In other words, I'm a sucker love stories! Though, I'm not sure who'd I personally would like to have an arranged marriage with. I could pick an actor or a sports figure I guess...

Re: Too Hot To Touch (3:57pm August 3, 2011):

My first crush was on the goalie of my favorite hockey team. He's since married someone else and has 3 young kids. But, it was fun while it lasted.

Re: Dying For Justice (5:50am June 29, 2011):

Ok, it's going to sound stupid... but my biggest fear is of seagulls. It's horrible because they're everywhere too. I have severe OCD and consider them dirty birds. (Irrational fear I know, but they freak me out.) People laugh at me because I flinch everytime I see one.

Re: Angel Sister (7:43pm March 18, 2011):

Looks amazing! Thanks for sharing with us!

Re: Haunted Honeymoon (12:04pm December 28, 2010):

I'll read just about anything, but lately I'm reading alot of fluff books. I need something to let my mind relax after all the day to day stresses and anything with love and a happy ending is a good thing.

Re: The Heir (9:25pm December 16, 2010):

I still have a night light. The Heir looks awesome. Can't wait to read it.

Re: Holiday Sparks (8:29am November 25, 2010):

Happy Thanksgiving!

Re: An Accidental Seduction (10:05pm October 28, 2010):

My heros would be my parents. They've raised myself and my siblings all to be decent human beings who work hard and appreciate lifes blessings. All while working 2 full time jobs each and being foster parents to children in need.

Re: The Bride's Necklace (7:49pm September 27, 2010):

Sometimes covers make a difference, others it doesn't. I tend to prefer covers with characters portrayed on the cover. Simply because it gives me a mental picture to imagine when I read the story. I could do without the bodice ripper covers though. Most of my "reading time" is spent on my lunch hour at work. Its awkward if the cover of the book is too "fluffy."

Re: Atlantis Betrayed (4:48pm August 31, 2010):

Looks awesome! Best of Luck with your move.

Re: The Wild Irish Sea (6:25pm July 8, 2010):

Looks great! perfect for summer reading.

Re: Crush On You (6:19pm July 8, 2010):

Re: Money, Honey (6:17pm July 8, 2010):

Looks awesome! I have to have it! I like a love triangle twist.

Re: Smooth Talking Stranger (12:59pm June 20, 2010):

I am blessed to be able to enjoy Father's day with my dad. He's not big on gifts, so all he asks is that we spend time with him. And I'm happy to do that for him.

Re: Hidden Wives (10:45pm June 13, 2010):

Looks like fun!

Re: Crush On You (9:11pm June 10, 2010):

I haven't met Mr. Right yet, but I'll let you know what I'm wearing when I do. It could be a while, but you'll be the first to know.

Re: I Love This Bar (6:37pm June 3, 2010):

OMG! That's awesome!

Re: Beautiful People (4:57pm April 21, 2010):

The book looks awesome. Can't wait to read it. Thanks for the laughes today. It was a hard day as the spouse of a friend passed away unexpectently this morning.

Re: Island Of The Swans (8:28pm February 8, 2010):

Thanks for the advice, it was very helpful. I'm attempting to write for the first time and any help I can get is greatly appreciated.

Re: Catch Of A Lifetime (4:53pm February 2, 2010):

Thanks for the good laugh! I can't wait to read Catch of a Lifetime.

Re: Dancing On The Head Of A Pin (12:29pm December 7, 2009):

Dancing On The Head Of A Pin looks very interesting. I'd love to "gift" them to myself to read.

Re: Over My Dead Body (1:05pm November 28, 2009):

I'd like to nominate my mother. She works for the local community foundation, is an active member of the Rotary Club and Women's Initiave, takes care of both sets of granparents, and baby sits my 2 and 4 year old nieces 16+ days out of each month. She's also had 2 major surgeries this year and took care of my father after he had a retinal detachment surgery this summer.
