Re: The Good Wife (10:25pm September 3, 2013):

Can you love someone too much? Hmm.....not in the sense of its being given and received in its purest, truest form. Love is something really special and a lot of people these days call things love, that just aren't. So no, going by what I believe love is and given its strength and naturalness.....no. Not possible.

Re: Pieces Of The Heart (10:44pm July 11, 2013):

Wow. I find it so incredible how you've pulled so much about this story from your own life, experiences and ancestry. I'm very impressed. =)

Re: The Rogue Steals A Bride (10:38pm July 11, 2013):

I've actually never read too many Regency romance. I think the closest I've gotten to the genre is Pride and Prejudice. It is one of my absolute favorites but I just haven't managed to pick up any other real romance novels. Perhaps I'll get lucky and yours will be the first I read. =)

Re: If The Shoe Fits (10:34pm July 11, 2013):

Winnie Foster and Jesse Tuck in Tuck Everlasting. The book, not the movie (although I greatly enjoy both). In the book, they both have such an innocence to how they see the world and their expectations from life. While an obvious couple in the movie, it isnt as much so in the book, yet there is something striking about what they could've had if Winnie made a different choice.

Re: Finding Home (2:43pm January 13, 2013):

Wow...this is so intriguing!! Love the whole concept. My
favorite memory...there are so many good ones, but maybe
meeting my current best friend. We met a SeaWorld last
summer and we have so much in common. He is absolutely
wonderful and we hope we can be more than friends in the
future. Its a summer I'll never forget ^_^

Re: Prince Of Power (3:59pm January 3, 2013):

Love author/book playlists!!! This romance feels like there have
been lots of challenges, but somehow love will find a way. ^_^

Re: How To Tame A Willful Wife (2:44pm November 16, 2012):

I'm barely getting into the romance genre, but I've liked what I've
read so far. I'm such a hopeless romantic...well hopeful now that
I've met someone. Your book is rather intriguing!

Re: A Wedding In Apple Grove (2:32pm November 16, 2012):

Small towns are so great! I love passing through them. They
have such a sweet, peaceful vibe. ^_^

Re: Lady Louisa's Christmas Knight (11:53pm October 26, 2012):

I love the music....but the thing I love most is seeing all the couples
spending the holidays together. Shopping, walking and holding hands in
winter clothes...its all so beautiful and romantic. I look forward to the
day when I can spend Christmas with my significant other. This year will
be my first Christmas where I am actually seeing someone who I can
spend the rest of my life with. I think this year will be the best winter
season Ive ever had. =) Hearts to my sea lion

Re: Mistletoe Cowboy (11:45pm October 26, 2012):

When I read, the book has to be really good in order for the characters
to "come off the page." If the characters are well written, they definitely
come to life for me. I love seeing old characters make cameos. Its always
been one of my favorite things in books and movies alike. ^_^

Re: Got Game? (7:24pm September 22, 2012):

I have never read a book about golf. This seems incredibly
interesting and I am very curious to discover your writing style.

Re: Treacherous Toys (2:26am September 5, 2012):

I love the perspective you put on writing. As a writer myself,
hoping to become a published author in the future, I am always
looking for 'what ifs' to inspire my writing. Thank you for sharing
this viewpoint, it really hits the core with readers. =)

Re: Allergic To Death (7:22am August 19, 2012):

Your book sounds like the perfect recipe for murder and mystery.
Delectable results in the end, I hope =)

Re: Hearse And Buggy (2:38am August 17, 2012):

I love simplicity. It's the little things that make life great...and
most little things are so simple ^_^

Re: Primal Possession (2:55pm August 16, 2012):

I don't need a heroine to be strong or smart. It is preferable,
but I really enjoy it when a heroine is able to react well. I don't
like heroines who lose their cool at the slightest hint of trouble
or heroines who blow things out of proportion. The heroines I
like are level headed and take things in a calm manner, so
they can get a good handle on the situations they have to
face.

Re: Sweet Deception (9:33am August 13, 2012):

I'm really stubborn about my video and book libraries. They
are organized in certain ways, so only I can grab things off
them or put things onto them. No one else can touch them
because they don't know how it goes. Any but me touches
those shelves, and chaos erupts because then there are
discs, books and cases everywhere they don't belong. =p
Those shelves are mine haha.

Re: The Bull Rider's Brother (9:30am August 13, 2012):

Hmm...fun house? Never found one! Went to a state fair...didn't
have a fun house. Being a Texas girl, I love cowboys and bull
riding. Give me that 8 second ride ;)

Re: Seducing Cinderella (3:16am August 12, 2012):

I love the friends to lovers trope...there always seem to be so
many more feelings than in the other tropes, since the
characters tend to have an already well developed
relationship and the prior relationship really just helps the
romantic relationship build on top of the foundation. I have
found these to be the tropes with incredibly intriguing
characters and the strongest bonds of love.

Re: The Bull Rider's Brother (3:14am August 12, 2012):

Interesting...very helpful, thank you so much for your viewpoint
and thoughts!

Re: Wrong Bed, Right Guy (3:14am August 12, 2012):

Oooh....intriguing...Sammie likey ;)

Re: Hell On Wheels (12:54pm August 10, 2012):

Very exciting! Confession: I have a thing for well-written,
interesting books ^_^

Re: Hearts Of Darkness (3:08pm August 9, 2012):

I really enjoy writing. I have kept everything that I have written,
whether it be a random chapter or a scene sample. I like seeing
where I've been and use it to see where I'll go.

Re: West of Want (11:52am August 8, 2012):

I really love the words you chose to describe him. Excellent choices ^_^
Im enthralled

Re: Wild Texas Rose (10:19am August 6, 2012):

I love Texas. Im a Lonestar teen, born and raised. Yourbook sounds
fabulous and I hope I get the opportunity to read it. ^_^

Re: The Last Victim (10:17am August 6, 2012):

Thank you so much for the advice! I hope to one day write my own
books and this guest post rings brightly in my ears. Thus will be one
author lesson I won't forget anytime soon as I begin my own journey as
a writer. =)

Re: Jesse (12:47pm July 13, 2012):

This seems like a very wonderful story. I love how you addressed
beauty outside and within, as its always been one of my favorite
motifs in a book. I am thrilled to hear about Jesse and will add it to
my list of books I should read in the future. =)

Re: Gwen's Ghost (12:44pm July 13, 2012):

I am extremely impressed with how you were able to manage
distance! Definitely quite a challenge, and you both pulled together
and wrote a book as if it was no big deal at all =) A job well done.

Re: Into The Darkest Corner (3:05am June 24, 2012):

I am not in an official book club, although someday I would like to
be. Me, my sister and my mom have formed our own "book club"
at home, but this is the farthest I have gone as far as group
reading is concerned. I love how we all take different things as
lessons from the same book. If I WAS in an official book club, I
would let an author join, because I really like hearing different
viewpoints.

Re: Sins Of The Angels (3:02am June 24, 2012):

I agree with every one of your reasons and I hope that I'll be able to
be just as good a writer as you someday. Thanks for the contest
opportunity! =)
