Re: The Casanova Code (8:37am June 19, 2012):

Got to be intelligent - Got to be kind-hearted! (grin) Thanks for stopping by,
Mary. Hope you give Casanova Code a try.
Re: The Casanova Code (8:31am June 19, 2012):
D Kenny
Likes cuddling -Yum! Great ad. Excellent choice of including values family
- that's so important. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you give Casanova
Code a try!
Re: The Casanova Code (8:27am June 19, 2012):
Hi Janie -
Good ad! Love the sense of humor. Thanks for stopping by! Hope you
give Casanova Code a try
Re: The Casanova Code (10:05pm June 18, 2012):
Hey all - My internet has been out all day (grrr...) so I'm sitting at a
McDonalds using their broadband - but it's 10:00 here so I'm heading back
to my internet-less home. Keep on leaving comments. Fresh Fiction will
keep tallying them all. I'll see if I can drop back in tomorrow night (I'm at a
CPA seminar all day tomorrow) to answer your comments.
Hope you all have a pleasant night - sweet dreams!
Re: The Casanova Code (10:02pm June 18, 2012):
Diane - sounds like you're looking for a fun sort of guy. Love the sense of
adventiure. No complatency for your guy!
Hope you give Casanova Code a try. Thanks so much for stopping by.
Re: The Casanova Code (10:00pm June 18, 2012):
Gladys -- I'm amazed too, but I have a number of friends who have
experienced success using Match.com or something similar. I know the
personal ads gained in popularity when the Industrial Revolution brought
more and more people into the cities looking for work - and away from their
rural based families. Still, I hope you give Casanova Code a try. Sounds
like you can appreciate my heroines suspicions about the Casanova hero
advertising for a mate.
Re: The Casanova Code (9:57pm June 18, 2012):
LOL Deb. I'm so with you about the "must have a job." That's so important
on so many levels.
Thanks for stopping by - hope you give Casanova Code a try!
Re: The Casanova Code (9:55pm June 18, 2012):
Peggy - Love your ad! It's so very romantic, I can almost hear the crashing
surf.
Hope you give Casanova Code a try. It really is a fun and sexy read.
Re: The Casanova Code (9:28pm June 18, 2012):
Jennifer - You're a lucky woman to have it all. And if you're in that position,
I certainly wouldn't blame you for insisting on nothing less than the same.
You go, girl!
But I hope you take a moment to give a read to Casanova Code along the
way (grin). Thanks for stopping by.
Re: The Casanova Code (9:26pm June 18, 2012):
LOL ALyson - At first I thought you meant the "advertised for " man must be
crafty - as in handy around the house to fix things. Have to say, that's a
talent I sure could appreciate (grin). Thanks for the nod to the premise. I
love this book and hope you give it a try. Fingers crossed that you love it
too.
Re: The Casanova Code (9:23pm June 18, 2012):
Michelle - If he likes movies, he must be a contemporary chap. My story is
before the invention of the motion picture. I do so love sitting in the dark
with my dh, munching away on popcorn - I don't even care if the movie is
great (which is good as sometimes they aren't). Yeah - my guy would
have to love movies as well.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you give Casanova Code a read.
Re: The Casanova Code (9:20pm June 18, 2012):
Hi Rita - Yes - he most certainly should be kind. Sad to say, it seems like a
genuinely kind man is a rare treasure - at least among the available ones..
Must be the times that drive the kindness instinct out of them.
Hope you give Casanova Code a read. I think you'll fall in love with my
hero.
Re: The Casanova Code (9:15pm June 18, 2012):
Beth - The gentleman that answers that ad is sure to spend a warm winter.
Are there people who are allergic to wool? I suppose it's possible. He
better have a sense of humor. Never disappoint a women with two pointy
needles in her hand!
Hope you give Casanova Code a try. It's a different fun way to occupy
those nimble hands of yours.
Re: The Casanova Code (7:39pm June 18, 2012):
Kim -
I think a wealthy bluestocking will get lots of responses to her ad. LOL.
Thanks for stopping by and playing the game. Hope you give Casanova
Code a try.
Re: The Casanova Code (7:37pm June 18, 2012):
Linda - LOL - That's great! I hadn't appreciated how many manly
adjectives began with the letter H! I bet that one would get lots of
responses. Thanks for stopping by - and should you give Casanova Code
a try, I hope you love it.
Re: The Casanova Code (7:35pm June 18, 2012):
Maureen -
Charming is nice. A man with manners is a rare treasure these days. A
sense of humor is a must-have deal breaker. Nice ad! Thanks for giving it
a try - and thanks for reading about the Casanova Code.
Re: The Casanova Code (7:32pm June 18, 2012):
Kathleen - I love my kids. I truly do. But I feel that I have paid my dues as
far as motherhood goes and it's time to move on to the next phase of life.
Sounds like you are in a similar place. Very nice ad! Hope you give
CASANOVA CODE a read while you wait for Mr. Right.
Re: The Casanova Code (7:30pm June 18, 2012):
Lexi -
I didn't realize the Victorians had personal ads either - until a friend sent me
an article from the NY TImes about honest - to - goodness Victorian
personal ads (with examples). Then I stumbled upon a reference to the
personals in a Sherlock Holmes novel placed in the same time period as
my story. I was hooked (grin).
Lovely personal ad, BTW. You should request a carte-de-visite, which is
basically a photograph, to verify that he is pleasant to look upon. Well
done!
Re: The Casanova Code (7:25pm June 18, 2012):
Hi Connie -
Well, you see sometimes the ads in the personal columns were written in
code. The two people exchanging communications don't wish anyone to
eavesdrop on thei conversation they probably shouldn't be having. So my
heroine, who can read code, reads the personal ads looking for these
coded messages.
I hope you give Casanova Code a try. It really is a fun novel - and a sexy
one as well.
Re: The Casanova Code (7:22pm June 18, 2012):
Colleen -
Enjoys Amusement Parks - now that's a new one for today. Are you a
person that loves roller coasters and travels around the country to ride
them all? I'm not certain my stomach could handle roller coasters any
more, but I do love carousels and have a large collection of carousel
horses. I think it's the inner child in me. Love the ad. Thanks for stopping
by!
Re: The Casanova Code (7:19pm June 18, 2012):
Hi Mary !
Yes - Those men that love kids and family are true heroes, aren't they?
That's true sex appeal - seeing a dad enjoy the company of his kids. Good
Ad!
Re: The Casanova Code (7:17pm June 18, 2012):
Wow Lenna - I like your ad! That love to travel is important, isn't it? I'm
planning a trip to Scotland to do research for another Rake Patrol book and
am so glad my husband is planning to go along. That's a heck of a trip to
be by one's self. I think I like a man who enjoys exploring new things.
Keeps us young.
Re: The Casanova Code (7:14pm June 18, 2012):
Sue - Amongst my husband and our friends, I'm beginning to wonder if
there's a man out there that DOESN"T like to golf? LOL - I'm with you on
the animal lover. And as long as the guy doesn't expect me to golf with
him, I'm with you there too (grin). It gives me time to do my own thing.
Thanks for stopping by!
Re: The Casanova Code (7:12pm June 18, 2012):
Cathy - Another person insisting upon humor - love it! I think intelligence
and a good sense of humor go hand in hand, don't you? At least, I make
sure my heroes have both (grin). Hope you give Casanova Code a try!
Re: The Casanova Code (3:58pm June 18, 2012):
Shella - LOL - so does your ad!
Love the independently wealthy guy. Hope he's willing to share those
cards, otherwise it'll be a short relationship.
Thanks - I love this book. Great fun with memorable characters and sexy
to boot. What more could you want? (uh-independent wealth...credit
cards...) Hope you give it a try.
Re: The Casanova Code (3:27pm June 18, 2012):
Leanna - I think you captured all the major ingredients for a great match! (
I would probably have added a line to ensure a love of my kitty and dogs in
general - but that's me). Hope you give Casanova Code a try!
Re: The Casanova Code (3:22pm June 18, 2012):
Leanna - If you add "must love dogs and cats" I would try to steal the
respondents from you LOL. I think you hit all the key ingredients to a great
match. Thanks for stopping by!
Re: The Casanova Code (3:20pm June 18, 2012):
Denise - how exiting!
I know more people that have met their spouses through an internet match
site. It's so hard these days to rely on an introduction to lead you to the
right one.
Yes - please check out The Casanova Code. I think you will enjoy it. And
may you be married for another 14 years (and more).
Re: The Casanova Code (3:17pm June 18, 2012):
Lynn -
I remember Opus. Loved that cartoon.
Good addition with the "love to travel." Interesting addition with the love of
classical music - do you play? I think with this ad you'll have much better
results than with the sweatshirt. Thanks for stopping by!
Re: The Casanova Code (3:10pm June 18, 2012):
Chelsea -
Love the "who enjoys reading" line. That way, they can read while we read
and still feel included! Thanks for stopping by!
Re: The Casanova Code (3:09pm June 18, 2012):
Renee -
Definitely like a guy with a sense of humor. My husband has big brown
eyes. I can understand the attraction. Thanks for coming by!
Re: The Casanova Code (3:05pm June 18, 2012):
Kathleen - yes, this one is a little different - but in a good way. LOL. You
know my last book, REDEEMING THE ROGUE, was nominated for a "Most
Innovative Fiction" award from Romantic Times. I'm thinking if they thought
that was innovative - wait till they read about secret codes and Japanese
erotica (grin).
Sounds like you have shaved head issues. Is a rapidly thinning head,
okay? (That would be my poor husband) Love the brawn and brains.
Need both!

Re: The Casanova Code (2:14pm June 18, 2012):
Not afraid to work is a biggie. Good idea to include that in the ad. There's
always so much work that has to be done, isn't there? Which is why a
wonderful sense of humor is also important. Good ad - Marjorie
Re: The Casanova Code (2:12pm June 18, 2012):
G S - How did we manage to do that, so many years ago? Pick out
someone intelligent and honest and good for the long haul. I always think I
must have been incrediably lucky as I'm not sure anyone is smart at 19. Of
course, he managed to be pretty lucky himself to have caught me - LOL.
Either way, we've been married for almost 40 years. Intelligence, honesty
and a whole lot of love. Thanks for stopping by GS!
Re: The Casanova Code (1:32pm June 18, 2012):
Elaine - You're a brave woman albeit an honest one. However, honesty is
critical to a longterm relationship. How else can one trust? Thanks for
stopping by. I hope you give Casanova Code a try.
Re: The Casanova Code (1:30pm June 18, 2012):
Hi Samantha - I certainly agree with the employed part - but someone in
college would most likely be too young for me (grin). I do like an educated
man, though - and one with a sense of humor. Thanks so much for
stopping by.
Re: The Casanova Code (1:27pm June 18, 2012):
Hi Cate!
Yes, a sense of humor is mandatory - at least in my world. Employment
would be critical as well. i love a competent man. Thanks for stopping by!
Re: The Casanova Code (1:25pm June 18, 2012):
Ann - a little money never hurts (grin). I think my husband is a quiet
conversationalist - I'm not sure because I tend to be the one always talking.
LOL. He gets to kick back and just smile a lot. Thanks for stopping by!
Re: The Casanova Code (1:23pm June 18, 2012):
Nancy -
I had a great time writing this book! I learned so much about secret codes
and Japanese erotica in the process. Who says romance isn't educational?
Hope you give Casanova Code a try. Thanks for stopping by.
Re: The Casanova Code (1:21pm June 18, 2012):
Gail - LOL - and be able to cook something beyond hamburgers and hot
dogs! Due to my lack of internet, I 'm camped out at the library. I dashed
home to make lunch as my husband comes home for lunch. He beat me
home....what did we have for lunch? The hot dogs he'd already started
cooking. Thanks for stopping by!
Re: The Casanova Code (1:18pm June 18, 2012):
Beth - That is so true on so many levels! Fortunately I got the complete
package when I wished for my hunky husband (grin). I think Edwina gets
more than she wishes for in Casanova Code. Hope you'll give it a try.
Thanks for stopping by.
Re: The Casanova Code (1:15pm June 18, 2012):
Roxana - Must make time fly - yeah, I can appreciate that. You certainly
wouldn't want one that makes ten minutes seem like a year! I hope you'll
give Casanova Code a try as that's what I try to do - make your reading
time fly by with fast pacing and interesting reading. Thanks for stopping by.
Re: The Casanova Code (1:13pm June 18, 2012):
Lori - LOL! A woman of some experience, I take it. Have you seen the
movie The Exotic Marigold Hotel? I might not have the name exactly right.
It has a scene where's there's this guy who must be in his 80s on one of
those speed date nights for people in their 30s-40s. He makes a statement
about how everyone lies in these things. Yes, a regular normal guy will no
ex-issues. That would be a keeper.
Re: The Casanova Code (1:08pm June 18, 2012):
Oregon - Smart man! I'm an animal person as well, but more of a citified
animal person (grin). We have a kitten named CoCo. My son just moved
back home with the sweetest American Bulldog named Rogue. The two
pets are still getting used to each other - but I've always had cats and dogs
growing up. I know the two will acclimate. My husband gave me a puppy
for my birthday years ago. A horse works as well. Thanks for stopping by.
Re: The Casanova Code (11:05am June 18, 2012):
Just wanted to say thanks to Fresh Fiction for hosting me today. Mwah!
Sorry for the late arrival. I'm having internet difficulties at home so I had to
hightail it to the library to connect. Of course that meant I had to shower
and dress to do so. Not sure they'd appreciate me appearing in my pjs
(grin).
Re: The Casanova Code (11:03am June 18, 2012):
Sharon - I love that you want to reach past that brooding bad boy shell and
make lighten up the hero beneath. You are a woman of compassion that
enjoys a challenge - that's what the ad says about you (grin).
Re: The Casanova Code (11:01am June 18, 2012):
Hi May - Yeah, that's the trick, isn't it. Sometimes the not so smart see
themselves as possessing those qualities, and the ones that truly possess
the qualities skipped reading the paper that day. LOL! Thanks for stopping
by, May
Re: The Casanova Code (10:58am June 18, 2012):
Bonnie - I agree totally with a good sense of humor. I think that and
intelligence go hand in hand, don't you? To be with me, one MUST have a
good sense of humor. Thanks for stopping by
Re: The Casanova Code (10:56am June 18, 2012):
Tracie - Love that "weak-willed need not apply" I wonder if the guy would
recognize himself in that request (grin). I do love a man of conviction and
the strength to carry through on them. Thanks for stopping by.
Re: The Casanova Code (10:49am June 18, 2012):
Lori - I agree completely with your ad. A good sense of humor is a must
have in my book, and tall, dark and sexy ain't too shabby either (grin).
Re: The Casanova Code (10:45am June 18, 2012):
Vickie -
Love the good under pressure part. Truly an admirable quality that would
go nicely with my own "screaming crazy lunatic" under pressure
tendencies.
Re: The Casanova Code (10:42am June 18, 2012):
Clare - I want that sweatshirt!!! Very cool -especially as it led to your
husband. Sounds like a romance novel (grin)

Re: Redeeming The Rogue (12:04pm September 2, 2011):
Joanne - I hope you have that reaction to my book. Look forward to
hearing from you!
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:52am September 1, 2011):
Dolores - I've heard others say they do this as well. I tend to switch to
nonfiction for research for awhile. Thanks for adding Redeeming the
Rogue to your TBR pile
Donna
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:37am September 1, 2011):
Marcelle - I keep the books I love as well, but I don't tend to reread them.
I just like keeping them close.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (5:13pm August 31, 2011):
Lisa - I sure hope you regard the Chambers as good friends -I know I do.
And if yo do feel that way...I hope you look at The Rake Patrol (first book
in June 2012) to help you with the mourning. (grin)
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (1:29pm August 31, 2011):
Carla - ii certainly hope you dream about my characters (grin). Let me
know--
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (11:46am August 31, 2011):
Sandra - I think you're right. I've seen this happen as well. It's like the
author is bored with the series, but not with the new contract (grin). Well
have to see how this works out.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (11:42am August 31, 2011):
D Kenny - LOL! Good idea! Not sure he'll be patient though. He knows
I'll make trouble for him either way. It would be a boring book otherwise.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (11:39am August 31, 2011):
Thank you Theresa! Hope you enjoy the Rogue.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (11:38am August 31, 2011):
Linda - The name comes to me as I write. I think Rafferty was the third
name I'd given the character, but once I found it - it clicked. I dose it from
a period Irish census. Glad I hung in there till the "R's".
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (11:32am August 31, 2011):
Kathleen - not sure he has more to say, he was just a fun character to
write (grin). Hope you give Redeeming the Rogue a try to see what I
mean.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (1:08am August 31, 2011):
Lisa - believe me it's hard as an author sometimes to let the characters
go. Sort of like letting sending your children off to college, it's hard to see
them leave after having them around constantly. I think Phineas though
will come back in a book. I'm just not sure when and where.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (1:03am August 31, 2011):
Hi Kenna - that's for stopping by. I had a great time at Tartan Ink. I don't
have any control over selecting the winner, but if you win - I'll be happy to
substitute books. Thanks for mentioning The Trouble with Moonlight. It's
one of my favorites.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (11:55pm August 30, 2011):
Debra- So far it's been hot, hot, hot here in Los Cabos. Even at night the
temps are in the 90s. Hope you give Redeeming the Rogue a try.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:29pm August 30, 2011):
Kara, thanks so much. I hope you add Redeeming the Rogue to your
TBR file.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:27pm August 30, 2011):
Hey Jennifer! The iPad has been a wonderful tool to use for this blog. I
am writing from Mexico today. After reading Redeeming th Rogue let me
know if you think Phineas should get his own book! I hope you enjoy it!
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:23pm August 30, 2011):
Hi Deb! William comes back in Redeeming the Rogue from past books.
Thanks for the cover love. I hope you enjoy Redeeming the Rogue.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:20pm August 30, 2011):
Bless you Molly! Thank so very much! Hope you find Redeeming the
Rogue an excellent addition.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:17pm August 30, 2011):
Hi Mary! I hope you consider this series brilliant. Let me know what you
think.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:14pm August 30, 2011):
Hi CM! Some of these characters were in earlier books. Hopefully
Phineas will get his own book in the future. Hope you enjoy the Rogue.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:09pm August 30, 2011):
Tracie - what series/characters would you have liked to see continued?
Sometimes it's out of an author's control whether or not they can continue
a series at least with that publisher. I know that has happened to me in
the past. Hope you give Redeeming the Rogue a try.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (10:06pm August 30, 2011):
Trace - what series/characters would you have liked to see continued?
Sometimes it's out of an author's control whether or not they can continue

Re: Redeeming The Rogue (8:20pm August 30, 2011):
Darchelle - of course, you could be on the leading edge of loving a new
series before it officially comes out. The first book comes out in June
2012. LOL. Yeah, I'll have to do Phineas's book. I'm just going to learn
how to write faster.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (5:29pm August 30, 2011):
Cathy there seems to be a lot of us that loved that tv series. Makes you
wonder why they pulled it off the air. I know they said the series was too
violent- but certainly not by today's standards. Just makes you wonder.
Hope you like Redeeming the Rogue.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (5:24pm August 30, 2011):
Crazy iPad post again. Shirley - while the sexual tension should keep you
warm in the winter months. I just wanted to say the book takes place
during the spring/summer months. President Garfield was shot in early
July 1881. I had to live within that timeframe.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (5:18pm August 30, 2011):
Shirley -
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (5:16pm August 30, 2011):
Cheryl Lynne - I hope you enjoy the ROGUE. Be sure to let me know
what you think.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (5:13pm August 30, 2011):
Margay - like the idea of writing the characters into another story. If you do
that for Redeeming the Rogue, you'll have to tell me what you do with
them .... Sounds like another contest LOL
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (4:56pm August 30, 2011):
Wilma - I hope you give the Rogue a try. Be sure to drp by my website to
let me know.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (4:54pm August 30, 2011):
Oh Jeanne - I hope so. It's not a western but the interaction between the
characters is the same - I hope! ( grin)
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (4:51pm August 30, 2011):
Alyson - in this series it's been tough to hold the related characters back
LOL. But it does make it easier for the author to have access to characters
with complete backstory. Hope you give the series a try.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (4:46pm August 30, 2011):
Thank you Cindy. Berkley has been good to me.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (4:44pm August 30, 2011):
Peggy - hope you like the Rogue. Loved the "tasteful steam.". I curious
now about the name of the book that impacted you so. Can you share?
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (4:39pm August 30, 2011):
Cece - you are in. Good luck! Hope you give the Rogue a try
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (4:37pm August 30, 2011):
Marjorie- I really liked the tv series. Not so much the movie version.
Artemis was one of my favorites. I guess it's no surprise that he should
pop up in this book.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (3:38pm August 30, 2011):
Bless you Sue. I think I'll keep one foot in this world and give Phineas a
happily ever after...of course I could have him put a personal ad in the
Mayfair Messenger and pull him into the next series as well...have to think
about that
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (3:33pm August 30, 2011):
Chele - you'll have to give Redeeming the Rogue a try. It's got a sigh-
worthy ending. Why is it, do you suppose, that we like rakes so much. I
admit I'm partial as well. Loved my Irish rogue in this book. He's a
challenge, but tender at all the right moments
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (2:50pm August 30, 2011):
Oops that's fun BOOK not fun post. Thank heavens may books are
proofread by three professionals. I obviously need a proofreader here
LOL
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (2:48pm August 30, 2011):
Thank you G. I hope you give Redeeming the Rogue a try. It's really a
fun post
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (2:28pm August 30, 2011):
Jayne - This is good to know. I've requested the hero to be with the
heroine on Casanova Code but as you probably know we authors haven't
a lot to do with the cover. Berkley has been wonderful in this regard,
though. They've given me some great covers. So we'll see what happens.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (2:22pm August 30, 2011):
Elizabeth - As I have no part in choosing the winner I can send you good
luck thoughts LOL. Hope you give Redeeming the Rogue a try.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (2:20pm August 30, 2011):
Colleen- It was my plan to do Phineas's book - especially as this character
won't leave me alone. Then I came up with an idea for a new series that I
love. The first chapter of that book, The Casanova Code, is in the back of
Redeeming the Rogue. (Does Kindle & Nook carry those first
Teaser chapters?). So now I'm trapped between writing the series that I
love, and writing Phineas's book who I adore. sigh...

Summer- Hope you give the Rogue a try.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (1:00pm August 30, 2011):
Sandy - I agree. I love it. Back in my "professional" CPA days I never
read romance. Professionals didn't read "those" kind of books. Can I just
say what idiots we were. I love all romance, but historicals are the best.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (12:07pm August 30, 2011):
Robin - great idea!! I'm more likely to post a free story on my website,
though. I'm not sure how to create an ebook. Oh dear. Looks like I'm
going to learn how to do something new!
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (12:02pm August 30, 2011):
Maureen -now that's thinking. You know, I don't think I've ever reread
books - too many on my TBR pile. Hope this one ends up on your keeper
shelf.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (11:58am August 30, 2011):
Dawn - hey send me those daydreams!! They might turn into a book.
That's really where it all starts...daydreams... Thanks. Hope you love the
Rogue.

Goofy iPad posted before I finished. Grrr... I used to have a gold pen with
retractable inks that broke and looked just like that pen from UNCLE. I'll
have to consider using those characters. Thanks!

Beverly -I Spy. That sounds great. I remember loving Man from.UNCLE. I

Pam - that's an excellent idea! I hadn't considered a short for the
website. (I'm not really good at promotion. Writing is one thing, but I'm
always at a loss when it comes to ideas on promoting the book. How
great to put the two things together). I hope you give Rogue a try.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (9:29am August 30, 2011):
Thanks Patti - sometimes it's hard not to have the characters keep
popping up. They become such good friends in my memory with their own
distinct voices (grin). I hope you give the books a try, then pop over to
my website and let me know what you think.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (3:44am August 30, 2011):
Thanks Rachel - this one worked out really well. It's amazing the fictional
turns possible utilizing factual history...and a little imagination. Hope you
like the Rogue.
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (3:41am August 30, 2011):
Constance - I always liked that show. It was fun recreating them with an
Irish twist. Hope you enjoy the Rogue. Hmm..is there another old tv show
that you like? Maybe I can explore using those characters (grin)
Re: Redeeming The Rogue (3:35am August 30, 2011):
Thanks Christine- This is the first time I've had a hero on the cover.
Before it was just the heroine. Do you have a preference? Do you prefer
to see the hero...or do you like to leave him to your imagination?
