Re: The Hunt (8:35pm October 12, 2009):

Congrats on your book, sounds like a winner!

Re: The Promise (9:15am October 11, 2009):

I would read them! In fact, I won a wonderful book from an author and have printed their book list and hunted down all of them,read them all, just because I liked the author so much. Some were 20 years old, but it didn't matter. My tastes have really changed over the years, but I'll still read whatever I can get my hands on! My TBR pile gets bigger and bigger every day, but I just keep reading! I'd hate to think that the TBR pile would disappear one day and I would run out of books to read! How scary is that????

Re: A Hollywood Ending (8:58am October 11, 2009):

I read a lot of different authors, but I love Beverly Barton, Catherine Coulter, Robyn Carr, Stephanie Bond, and cannot get enough of Janet Evanovich. With each book they get better and better. I've dicovered new authors through Fresh Fiction and some I really like and have started looking for their books too.Katie Collins, Julia Harper, J.L. Wilson to name a few. Just hope they never quit writing!and I will never quit reading!!

Re: Red Hot Lies (9:23am August 31, 2009):

Doesn't matter to me as long as the story/plot is good!

Re: Haunting Beauty (7:30pm August 28, 2009):

I don't think I'd change anything. I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Although I've regretted some things, I've learned from them, soooo guess you should just leave fate alone!

Re: The Treasures Of Venice (9:52am August 27, 2009):

Congratulations! September seems to be a great month for you! Best Wishes!

Re: The Fixer Upper (3:54pm August 23, 2009):

I read whatever I feel like reading! Whether it's a classic or just a romance novel, I love them all. At least I'm reading which is more than i can say of some of my friends!! LOL

Re: Smash Cut (9:17am August 16, 2009):

So far I haven't re-read any books as my TBR pile is pretty full right now. If I have won a book I try to read it first, so that I can let the author know how much I liked it! I keep my autographed books, but I give the other books I've read to friends and family to read.

Re: Red Seas Under Red Skies (3:36pm August 15, 2009):

I've never been to one, but would love to. I think they would be very interesting and you get to meet your favorite authors. How great would that be???

Re: The Perfect Couple (6:12pm August 9, 2009):

WOW! I'd really hate for my favorite's to no longer be there! How they decide whose worthy to keep I don't have a clue...but I'd really be upset if I wasn't able to find some of my author's in print anymore!

Re: Spackled And Spooked (9:33am August 6, 2009):

What an interesting storyline. Will have to check this one out!

Re: Hot Pursuit (9:20pm August 2, 2009):

Could never give up my books! My Library is too far away from me, but I buy online alot and at used book stores!. May not be new but I usually find the ones I want.

Re: Red, White & Dead (3:50pm July 30, 2009):

I love reading series...and back to back to back. These sound interesting and will have to check them out! Best Wishes!

Re: Seduce Me (2:19pm July 29, 2009):

Great discussion. As long as the love scenes go along with the charaters and storyline then it's great. It's when it's just thrown in there that it makes it unrealistic. Thanks for the info (12 Steps-very interesting).

Re: Face Time (10:15am July 28, 2009):

Loved the interview! When I was younger my mom and I didn't see eye to eye, but as I grew older(wiser..LOL) we got along great until she passed. Wouldn't have traded our time together for anything!

Re: Seeing Red (6:40pm July 27, 2009):

My husband is from a small town and the first time I visited it I was amazed! All the people were so friendly and helpful and knew everyone! His mother knew we were in town before we checked into the small hotel. Before we got a chance to call her to let her know we arrived...just from our license plate! Was great!!! I just love visiting there...reminds me of "Mayberry RFD" show.

Re: Mackenzie's Legacy (12:07pm July 26, 2009):

I too love the charaters in Robyn Carr's Virgin River Series! I, along with others I'm sure cried when Doc passed, but that only made the storyline even better. I wonder what happens to all the other characters in the book. I love the way Ms. Carr follow-ups on the secondary characters in the next book. Can't wait for 2010 when the new books come out!

Re: The Plight Of The Darcy Brothers (9:36am July 24, 2009):

This sounds like a wonderful read! I'm an avid reader and just wouldn't know what to do if I couldn't. Best Wishes on your new book!

Re: Waking Nightmare (10:38am July 22, 2009):

i'd like to have a little bookstore, with a section with tables and chairs, serving coffe or tea and pastries!

Re: Divorced, Desperate and Deceived (12:25pm July 21, 2009):

Loved the interview. WILL BE ADDING YOUR BOOKS TO MY LIST!!!

Re: Bending The Rules (8:42am July 20, 2009):

Most of the time! But there are times I lose it! I'm a softy though, cry at commercials on TV for goodness sake! Oh well, it 'tis what it 'tis! LOL

Re: Bluegrass Blessings (5:49pm July 16, 2009):

Both! I share the feelings of the charaters in the book. So if they laugh or cry, I wind up doing the same, I prefer a good laugh, but also cry when something sad happens to the characters. that's when I know it's a great book!

Re: Earth Guys Are Easy (2:19pm July 15, 2009):

Congrats on the weight loss. Anything motown for me for music. AND bell bottoms for sure!

Re: In The Garden Of Sin (9:05am July 14, 2009):

Re: By Hook Or By Crook (9:01am July 14, 2009):

Re: Mr. Perfect (1:08pm July 12, 2009):

I have loved the Virgin River Series from Robyn Carr and The Body Movers Series from Stephanie Bond. I look forward to each book as it comes out!! Now I have to wait unti 2010 to get the next set that goes with each one.

Re: Love At First Flight (4:29pm July 3, 2009):

What a great interview! The book sounds great!

Re: A Stroke of Magic (2:38pm July 1, 2009):

I love characters to have little quirks! makes the storyline a little more interesting!!If they are funny quirks, that's even better!!

Re: Happiness Key (5:09pm June 30, 2009):

Sweet looking hunks!

Re: A Thread Of Truth (12:48pm June 21, 2009):

Typos don't bother me unless there are so many you can't follow the storyline. As long as the book holds my interest, that's all that matters to me!

Great interview! Thank yoy

Re: Jump (4:26pm June 18, 2009):

This sounds like just the kind of book I love to read. I love thrillers/mysteries. If the characters don't have good chemistry then the story just falls flat. Best Wishes!

Re: Last Resort: Marriage (1:07pm June 17, 2009):

Mine are Robyn Carr's Virgin River series. I love the characters, the area where it takes place. They are heart warming, funny, frightening books. Make me keep coming back looking for more.

Re: From Friend To Father (3:02pm June 15, 2009):

Who wouldn't want a happy ever after???? I like to see how the relationship grows, from begining to end. The real world is tough enough, nothing wrong with getting out of it for a few hours, where everything works out for a change!

Re: Deep Down (12:18pm June 10, 2009):

Sounds like a great read! i take ginseng everyday!

Re: Final Approach (2:33pm June 8, 2009):

Guilty as charged on all counts...I start a book and nothing else matters until I'm finished. Family are on their own! LOL Then I'm disappointed when I finish reading the book because it's done and I want more!!!

Re: How To Seduce A Texan (12:22pm June 4, 2009):

You sound like you have a wonderful family and life! I love your attitude! (Made me laugh)Best wishes on your new book and the series coming out next year!

Re: A Bride For His Convenience (1:22pm June 3, 2009):

My deepest condolences to her family and the literary world. A great loss!

Re: Lucky Streak (11:23am June 3, 2009):

Can't wait to read your Lucky Books! Yes I believe in luck, just have to be in the right palce at the right time!!!

Re: Believe (11:33am May 31, 2009):

I like to read anything! Antholigies are great either way, linked together or a series of short stories, as long as they hold my attention and are good. Reading short stories makes me go out and buy the authors novels!!!

Re: Master Of Craving (8:04pm May 27, 2009):

Congrats on the new release! Thanks for the opportunity to win a book. Best wishes!

Re: The Warrior (1:50pm May 24, 2009):

Re: Moonburn (12:40pm May 19, 2009):

I think it's on the border between the two. Sounds like a great read!

Re: Kissing The Man Next Door (10:13am May 19, 2009):

Next door is too close for me! But I can see how it might happen, anyway thank you for the opportunity to win.

Re: Pretty in Plaid (7:27pm May 17, 2009):

I'm always early. Sometimes you can get into and out of your appointment faster. But I always carry a book so I have something to read while waiting (because sometimes even when you have an appointment you have to wait awhile).

Re: Mistress (1:35pm May 16, 2009):

If I can't pronouce a name, I just say it the way that's easiest for me. As long as the storyline has my interest it doesn't matter how to pronouce a name. I also use book marks for my place in a book I'm reading!

Re: The Infamous Rogue (1:55pm May 14, 2009):

I think that it's really cool to see your old flames and maybe pick up where you left off (if you're both free that is). Sometimes it better the second time around.

Re: 6 Killer Bodies (4:03pm May 13, 2009):

What a great year you have had...so far! I love your Body Movers series, have read them all so far just waiting for number 6 to be released. I love ,love, love these characters! Thanks so much for a great read.

Re: Relentless (9:56am May 4, 2009):

Re: Killer Keepsakes (6:54pm April 21, 2009):

When I'm cleaning or driving! That's when I solve problems. LOL

Re: Mastering The Marquess (2:27pm April 16, 2009):

Re: A World I Never Made (7:17pm April 2, 2009):

I'm a big fan of suspense, thrillers and mysteries!
This one sounds great!

Re: The Inn at Eagle Point (8:18am April 1, 2009):

Re: Whisper of Warning (4:38pm March 30, 2009):

Catherine Coulter's FBI thrillers. Wow! Talk about getting your attention!. Love them and I just finished reading "The Murder Game" by Beverly Barton, and couldn't put it down until I was done. Books that keep me guessing and wondering what's going to happen next are the ones I look for.

Re: Kiss Of Darkness (2:49pm March 27, 2009):

Sounds great to me! Gorgeous hunks, loin cloths, what's not to like! Thanks for the chance to win books!

Re: Too Rich and Too Dead (9:58am March 25, 2009):

My family used to do the same thing! Spring Breaks, Holiday Breaks all meant ROAD TRIPS!

Re: Evil Without A Face (5:32pm January 29, 2009):

I've always been careful about what my girls were doing on the internet. Now that they are adults they are still carefull about giving out their email etc to people they don't know.

Re: Wicked Burn (7:48pm January 26, 2009):

I'm just a reader, but enjoy the blogs from different authors. This way I feel like I get to know them better and enjoy reading their books. I've read alot of books that without the blogs and excerpts
