Re: The Lady Meets Her Match (3:34pm April 7, 2015):

Thanks Peggy. I love the cover too. I know what you mean
about a face with the body. :-) It makes the book more
personal. I appreciate your comments about the story. I
had a lot of fun with this one...Claire and Cyrus threw
some surprises my way and I went with them. Happy
Easter/Spring!

Hi Ladies,
thanks for sharing the mix of heroes who've grabbed you and
the unselfish things you've done in life for people you
love. Love also means expressing what you need as well. I
remember when Brian and I were in our second year of
marriage, he took on a job for a commercial cleaning
company. He had to work some long, awful hours and was
sometimes under-staffed. Some nights I volunteered to go
with him and help just because I knew how arduous the work
was and because I wanted to be with him. That, I think, was
the beginning of the twenty-something year old bride
learning what it meant to really love her husband

Hi Lynne, I love a man who can surprise me. I want to know
what's behind the hat pulled low and the collar flipped high.
Thanks for stopping by today and reading the blog.
Have a great day-
Gina

I'll take tall blonde and Viking and/or a scarred, snarky
hero! So many book heroes to choose from and so much romance
to read! Thanks for stopping by the blog ladies! :-D

Hi Peggy and Carol,
How sweet to carry on the cookie tradition from your moms.
My mom's big thing was to put the tree up the Saturday after
Thanksgiving. Sometimes she'd bake, sometimes she didn't.
But, we could always count on a month of Christmas tree
lights and festive decor. Even with all the kids grown, she
still does this. I like the tradition the two of you are
doing: yummy cookies!! Makes me want to bake something. :-)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Gina

Hi Peggy,
Thanks! That is so sweet. We've been married almost 20
years now. I enjoy making the big Thanksgiving meal and feel
like now it's old hat. When it comes to the pie, I sometimes
go store bought, sometimes homemade. This year I have a
request from my boys to go homemade all the way and they put
their pie requests on a whiteboard in the kitchen. I hope
you and your husband have a great Thanksgiving. I bet your
feast is spectacular! Have a great Thanksgiving!

Re: Norse Jewel (12:25pm November 21, 2013):

Hi Ladies! Thanks for sharing. My laptop jiggled up and down
as I had some good laughs at your shared experiences. Next
Wednesday is my "pie baking day." So I will think of your
pumpkin pie experience Carletta! :-) And "G" that's great
that you and your brother and sister wanted to treat mom and
dad to Thanksgiving made by you (very thoughtful teens).
Sooo true: books and research get you so far, but nothing
beats experience. I wish you and your families a great
Thanksgiving!

Hi,
This is Gina. Such great comments. Any fans of historical
romance out there? Any open to the early 1000s?
