Re: Touch If You Dare (2:45pm July 22, 2011):

So, true, Rowena!!! If only!

Thanks Chris R. You just made my day!

Ooohh... Jeanne... I will have to go investigate Giles. I need me an enticing hero!

Re: Touch If You Dare (9:47am July 22, 2011):

Thanks, Jennifer B!

Carla S, that is a great recommendation. I have to admit that I'm one of the only people left on the planet that hasn't read Outlander, but you have just put it on the top of my list!

LOL, Robin!

You're so funny, Heather P! Don't you want his sword to be big and fancy???

Re: Touch If You Dare (9:46am July 22, 2011):

Oh, Lisa, Vinter sounds great! Thanks for the rec!

MaryAnne, sometimes I think not seeing the hero's face makes him more sexy and mysterious.

Thanks, Diane S!

Carla C., that's a great point. It's all in the story and who that particular hero is. There are a lot ways for a hero to melt your heart.

Re: Touch If You Dare (9:51pm July 21, 2011):

Thanks, Tonya! Good luck in the contest.

I agree, Janet! There's something about a big strong guy with needles and yarn that just it just a little bit heart-melty…

LOL, Sharon! Good to see you! Big smooches!

I'm so glad, Karen. Thanks for joining us!

Re: Touch If You Dare (9:51pm July 21, 2011):

I'm with you, Nicole. When I'm writing a book, it's always that hero who melts my heart the most.

Cynthia, it sounds to me like you need Jarvis Swain pronto. Your hair is beckoning to him…

Thanks for the recommendation, Johanna. I will go chase that book down!

That is so sweet, Diana, how your husband ruffles your hair. Isn't it the most amazing feeling to have a man's hands in your hair? Big sigh…

Re: Touch If You Dare (5:48pm July 21, 2011):

Thanks, Lynn!

You're hilarious, Marcelle! Yes, I agree, a sword and leather are HOT.

That's great, Maude. Thanks!

Good luck in the contest, Moscato!

Re: Touch If You Dare (5:48pm July 21, 2011):

Thanks, Desiree

I agree, Sanda! But trust me, Jarvis is totally a match for it!

He's so worth it, Cathy P.!

Malachi sounds wonderful, Cathy M. I will go check him out. I do love a sexy vampire.

I agree, Maureen! Sourcebooks did a fantastic job with him.

Thank you, Sherry!

Oh…Ian MacNeill sounds great. I love Highland warriors. Thanks for the rec, Deb.

Re: Touch If You Dare (5:47pm July 21, 2011):

I agree, Saskia! A soft side in a man is sooo appealing!

Ooh… Peggy. Thanks for sharing. I've never read Janet's books, but I have heard about Ranger. You just made him tempting enough that I might have to go track myself down a copy!

LOL, Alyson! That cover is amazing, isn't it? Totally deliciousness.

Thanks for stopping by Cecilia, and good luck in the contest!

Oh, Candy, he sounds like a keeper! The question is: did he master the French braiding?

LOL, I want to get my hands on him too! Good luck in the contest!

Thanks, Colleen!!!

I don't think the A/C is going to help Deborah… 

Re: Touch If You Dare (11:12am July 21, 2011):

Hi Patti, LOL on the hair cut. It might be time to grow it out!

Mary, I think you would be the perfect complement to Jarvis. He's yours. 

Tracie, isn't the cover marvelous? I love it! And yes, a fabulous tattoo for sure!

I agree, Constance!

LOL, Dayle! Or maybe we could hope for a bad hair day so Jarvis could fit is…

Michele, 6, 7, & 8 are amazing, I agree. They are the core of who he is.

HI Na, thanks for sharing. I loved Zsadist as well. He was awesome. I haven't read the KMM book, but I will check that out.

June Ann, #2 is a very good reason! I think that kind of loyalty from a man is something that all women yearn for.

You know, Kathleen, I think faithful and honest are very sexy. The window dressing only matters if he is wonderful underneath.

Thanks, Marjorie!

Oh, Connie, I would have love to sneak into that men's knitting group! Total heart-melting!

Thanks, Pam!

Thanks, Leanna!

Me too, Barbara!

Hi Dawn, what book was Dare Macintosh in? I'd love to read it!

Oh…great recommendation, Deidre! I will check them out.

Me too, Julie!

LOL, Vickie. He is ripped, isn't he? Yummy!

Thanks, Wilma & Sandy! Good luck in the contest!

You might be surprised, Vicki. The hate doesn't make him hate. He's like the vessel that contains it so it doesn't contaminate the world. He's the ultimate guardian to be able to guard it but not let it taint him.

Oh, he's so drool-worthy, Theresa!

LOL, Cory. What book is Jackson Savor in? I want to go read about him!

Re: Kiss At Your Own Risk (8:53am January 13, 2011):

You all have inspired me so much with all your stories, and with all the support pouring out for each other. It's funny how, when you're going through tough stuff, sometimes you feel so alone, but reading all these comments makes me remember how many wonderful, amazing women there are out there, ready to support and encourage each other.

Pam, I agree!

Teresa, good for you!

Vickie, I agree! It's amazing the number of powerful and strong women out there, ready to share their stories as inspiration and hope to others.
