Re: Shenandoah Dreams (11:53pm July 5, 2014):

Definitely explore!

Re: Wakeworld (5:19pm May 15, 2014):

I definitely would be a McCaffery. Flying, lethal to enemies, love my human.
Kind of reminds me of the second Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe series.
Blanking on the name right now! Lol

Re: Frisky Business (5:16pm May 15, 2014):

Bad dates? The divorced guy who said, on our first date, when I was 19 or
so, that he thought he could fall in love with me. He just met me, and we
only spent maybe an hour together at the time he said that. You thought
guys could make skid marks running? Oh yeah! I ran and didn't look back!
Lol

Re: Her Perfect Mate (5:14pm May 15, 2014):

Love books with military men/Gmen! Hubby was Army, and while he was
only in for a few years, certain things stuck with him.

Re: Deep in My Heart (5:13pm May 15, 2014):

Pretty Woman is one of my all time favorites! I also love Ghost, 10 Things I
Hate About You, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Dates. I drop everything when
those are on. Love some Booth and Bones too, but Big Bang's Penny and
Leonard always reminded me of me and hubs a little. Kind of. Except I had
a small baby when we got together, and didn't have a courtship of a few
years! Lol

Re: Wicked Little Secrets (5:09pm May 15, 2014):

It's been awhile since I had the time to read an historical romance. I know
about the dressing, not showing ankles, not being alone with a man not
your bethrothed/husband. Since I'm not up to historical facts, I'd probably
skip over some booboo! Lol

Re: Always Emily (5:06pm May 15, 2014):

A friend just married a man with kids. We all went to school together, with
her a year behind us, and they actually never met until just a few years
back. I always thought they'd be good together. Now she gets to help
coparent his 2 children.

Re: Rise And Shine (7:16pm May 11, 2014):

We had a Basset! Loved her! Sounds like a great book!

Re: Cottonmouth and the River (7:15pm May 11, 2014):

My kids love to read! We have an extensive library due to homeschooling,
and have a hard time finding books they haven't read!

Re: A Sweet Life Boxed Set (7:14pm May 11, 2014):

Awesome idea to raise funds! Our family has been touched by diabetes,
like so many others. Good luck with your auction!

Re: Playboy's Lesson (1:14am May 8, 2014):

Sounds like a great read! Trying to get my summer reading pile going here

Re: The Language Of Silence (1:13am May 8, 2014):

Love the south. Moved to TX two years ago from PA. Can't wait to read
this!

Re: The Warrior (4:33pm May 6, 2014):

Can't wait to read this!

Re: The Memory Garden (4:30pm May 6, 2014):

I had an awesome garden. Tons of veggies, strawberries, etc. Front of the
house had the flowers. Hoping to buy a place soon! We do have a plot at
the community garden this year. Tomatoes, peppers, beans, cukes and
more planted.

Re: What The Groom Wants (4:26pm May 5, 2014):

Sorry, Captain Tightpants. Headache is doing me in today:(

Re: What The Groom Wants (4:25pm May 5, 2014):

Who cares if Mr Tightpants is n it? Lol

Re: Secrets and Sins: Raphael (9:41pm May 4, 2014):

I'm a curser as well, but try to use macaroni and cheese and fugues or
some such in front of my kids.

Re: Needing Her (7:15pm December 25, 2013):

Not really. Jokes, yes, pranks...not so much.

Re: Welcome Back To Apple Grove (3:13pm December 20, 2013):

Chocolate chip without nuts, horseshoe, or nut tossies. The last 2 are the
ones my gram used to make every year.

found a rental, not to settle in before we start any of that fun stuff!

Re: Fighting Love (2:31pm December 16, 2013):

Hubby has been my best friend for 22 years now.

Re: Unclaimed (3:08pm December 12, 2013):

I love the stress free time with my kids, although we're missing our oldest
son back in PA.

Re: Prince Of Shadows (3:07pm December 12, 2013):

Sounds great! Thanks for the chance to win!

Re: Last Chance Proposal (2:26pm December 10, 2013):

Dreaming of going down under one day. Maybe, if I hit the lottery!

Re: Tangling with the CEO (2:25pm December 10, 2013):

Depends on my mood. Just like some days I want kids, then no kids,
cowboys, etc.

Re: Hustlin' Texas (2:15pm December 4, 2013):

Love cowboys reads! Recently moved to south TX and hubby wants to start
a hobby farm- guess he wants to be a cowboy too!

NCIS and Big Bang:) I don't have full cable, after a year of no cable, but I
like the forensic shows. I tell hubby to be careful! Lol

The Familiar ones from Silhouette or Harlequin (been a bit since I read
one! Lol)

Re: Home for Christmas (2:18pm November 25, 2013):

Love Christmas romances!

My dream is to write my own books. I have started, but no time or space to
continue at this time.

Re: Aloha Rose (2:14pm November 25, 2013):

I would love to go to Hawaii to see it in person, but for now books will have
to do!

Re: The Bitches of Brooklyn (2:23pm November 19, 2013):

All of my stuff is in storage since we moved to TX last year. Living in a 22
foot motor home with no closets.

My kids first. I also have a passion for reading and creating. Whether it's
writing, crafting or baking.

Re: Daughter Of The God-King (2:39pm November 8, 2013):

That's why it's fiction! You're allowed artistic liberties when writing,
otherwise it would be real life.

Re: How To Handle A Highlander (2:37pm November 8, 2013):

I fell in love with Highlander the series thanks to my husband. Even my
oldest daughter loves that series. Adrian Paul May have something to do
with it! I usually use him as the hero when reading a highlander book:)

Re: A Cadence Creek Christmas (2:57pm November 7, 2013):

I get caught up in Pinterest too. Lol Can't seem to help myself. Planning a
wedding and having Pinterest? Beyond distracting! Surprised you managed
to hit your deadline! I wouldn't have!

Re: Upon a Winter's Night (2:16pm November 6, 2013):

Seeing my kids faces

Re: Scion of the Sun (3:22pm November 4, 2013):

I'm looking for ya for my young reader. She reads as much as I do and
would love to find some appropriate authors for her to read.

Re: A Cowboy for Christmas (3:21pm November 4, 2013):

We have the kids open one present an hour until a certain time to give
them a chance to see what they got. At around 5 or so we let them open
the rest. I also do code names. Scooby doo cast, elf names, reindeer
names, etc.

Re: The Wishing Thread (4:34pm October 28, 2013):

My grandmother made me a cross stitch quilt and bibs for my first child. I
was able to use them for my other children as well as her eyesight wasn't
up for more small stitching.

Re: Identity Crisis (1:57am March 27, 2013):

Re: Lord of the Keep (10:30pm March 23, 2013):

cover may catch my eye, but it has to hold my interest

Re: Nickeled-And-Dimed To Death (10:28pm March 23, 2013):

second chances can be a way to learn from what happened the first time, but we usually just make the same mistake

Re: A Risk Worth Taking (9:59pm March 10, 2013):

Re: Scorned Justice (10:24pm February 23, 2013):

Snapped! Haven't seen it in a bit (no cable here), but it's about scorned lovers exacting the ultimate revenge

None yet, but we have 6 kids, so we love big families!!

Re: Deck the Halls With Love (5:01pm January 30, 2013):

I've read so many books! I'd say the best friend, single mom, the woman who works at home to avoid people after a bad relationship (neighbor of someone??)

Re: The Officer Breaks The Rules (12:54pm January 24, 2013):

my hubby and I were friends first:) It helps for a long term relationship if there's friendship for those hard times!

Re: A Seal At Heart (3:24pm December 14, 2012):

Re: Fortune's Hero (10:00pm December 13, 2012):

a self cleaning house, laundry area that folds clothes, moving sidewalks, cars that can hover...
