garden sounds ideal.

Re: Down for the Count (9:09am November 2, 2012):

just a bit silly.

I like a heroine who is strong & brave & confident without

I'd be very happy.

Re: Shattered Silence (10:43pm October 14, 2012):

Just the thought of a Texas Ranger conjures up an image. I wonder why there are so few for such a large state?

Re: In The Barrister's Bed (6:01am October 11, 2012):

I do love a man in uniform, though a sharp suit can be very sexy.

Re: Run The Risk (5:59am October 11, 2012):

I'll go to the classics and say Rhett Butler, though he did redeem himself.

I know nothing about faro, but I do know that brainy is the new sexy.

Re: A Home For Nobody's Princess (5:54am September 25, 2012):

We moved around a lot when I was growing up, so it's not a place for me, but the people. Family makes me feel like I'm home.

Re: Deadly Little Lies (10:20pm September 20, 2012):

I do still remember the books I was forced to dissect at school - torture. I also remember the books I loved growing up. Mostly because I re-read them so many times. BLACK BEAUTY among them.

I always love the back story to writers & their works thank you.

Re: Deep Autumn Heat (5:33am July 7, 2012):

Taking my daughter out & about for driving lessons was certainly way out of my comfort zone.

I appreciate the authenticity, but I can forgive 'poetic license'.

Everything my Mother cooks brings back memories. She used to spoil us & still does.

Re: The Wild Wood Enquiry (7:50am June 14, 2012):

I'm thinking that the village is laid out around a ring road. Perhaps around a village 'square'. It could also have come from the locals cutting "Around Ringford Way" down to Round Ringford. I did consider the children's rhyme RING AROUND THE ROSY as well.

Re: A Fatal Fleece (9:36pm June 12, 2012):

The entire series looks amazing. I'm looking forward to reading them all.

Re: Seeker Of Shadows (8:18am May 31, 2012):

Re: Royal Street (9:59pm May 6, 2012):

ALL OF THE ABOVE!!! How could you doubt it?

Re: Vigilare (8:34am April 7, 2012):

I have had moments where I found an inner strength I never knew was there. It's liberating.

Re: A Scandalous Countess (4:37am February 11, 2012):

Nothing to add about the Georgian period, but that I should read more of it. I forgot how amazing it can be.

Re: A Fitting End (4:34am February 11, 2012):

I have no idea: maybe food or garden related - landscaping.

Re: Stud (8:05am February 9, 2012):

Generally movies don't live up to the book. LORD OF THE RINGS is the exception. It surpassed the book.

Re: Darkest Highlander (7:09pm February 6, 2012):

Since I love reading both magic & history, this is the perfect mix for me.

Re: The Lord Of Illusion (7:07pm February 4, 2012):

Thank you for the wonderful interview. I don't make resolutions either.

Re: Amazon Heat (8:34pm January 24, 2012):

I prefer a full length book. I usually find with novellas I am just getting in to the story & it ends.

Re: Falling For The Fireman (8:31pm January 24, 2012):

Firemen are real life heroes. That translates well into a story.

Re: Dreamers (6:55pm January 21, 2012):

Re: Bride By Mistake (4:41am January 12, 2012):

I do enjoy reading stories about marriages of convenience. If I had to choose for myself, I would not want anyone famous. Just an honest, decent, hard working man who I would grow to love & he me.

Re: A Demon Does It Better (5:33am January 3, 2012):

I think it would be too scary. Happy to read it though.

Re: Sweet Reward (3:17am January 2, 2012):

Re: Wild Thing (5:20am December 5, 2011):

I have always loved the story of WUTHERING HEIGHTS. Such passion & angst.

Re: Risking Trust (4:59am November 9, 2011):

Re: Flawless (7:23pm October 20, 2011):

Bad boys can be redeemed, but cheating is a line they should never cross.

Re: Against The Storm (6:19am October 17, 2011):

I would not know how to begin a book let alone finish it.

Re: The Rose Garden (3:51am October 13, 2011):

The supporting cast is all important. They make a story three dimensional.

Re: Unleashed (1:09am October 11, 2011):

How about a dragon? Incredibly magic & powerful & rare.

Re: Chosen By Fate (8:29pm October 9, 2011):

I think all books are a mix of genres when it comes right down to it. Without this mix they would be a bit one dimensional.

I love the classic names: Charles, Thomas, Edward, George etc.

Re: Baer Truth (6:16pm October 4, 2011):

LOVED this post. I could not stop laughing. Reality is not so romantic.

Re: To Sketch A Thief (11:47pm September 16, 2011):

When I am reading & come across a character with a name I cannot pronounce, even in my head, I assign them a descriptive name, like "alpha villain".

Re: The Dragon And The Pearl (9:27pm September 14, 2011):

I think most Historical stories work so beautifully when you can imagine the clothes that are particular for that era. Clothes they say don't make the man, but they can't hurt.

Re: Out in Blue (7:20pm September 13, 2011):

I love the fact that some Angels have the ability to heal.

RUN: you would not see me for dust. I would be screaming all the way!!!

Re: Redeeming The Rogue (8:47pm August 30, 2011):

I have often read a book & not been ready to let characters go. This is where series can be brilliant.

The dreaded virus hidden within an email. It's happened twice to me now. I had to wipe everything off, scrub the computer & start again.

My first crush was an older boy at school. I thought he was gorgeous.

Re: Lie for Me (4:51am August 2, 2011):

You would have to be able to justify the lie to yourself. It would weigh on your conscience no matter what.

Re: The Full Moon Bride (5:17am August 1, 2011):

"Bollywood in a Book" - I love that. I am sorry you are denigrated for your work. That saddens me.

Re: Notorious (5:25am July 29, 2011):

I can see myself scorning a chaperone & raising a few eyebrows.

Re: The Genesis Key (6:55pm July 28, 2011):

THE GENESIS KEY sounds great. I don't want to live past my expiration date. I want quality of life rather than quantity.

Re: What A Goddess Wants (6:52pm July 28, 2011):

Call it creative chaos!! I laughed reading this post. Keep writing & forget about the carpets.

Re: Chicks Kick Butt (7:02pm July 27, 2011):

Fabulous group of writers - on my list.

Re: A Gentleman Never Tells (5:14pm July 25, 2011):

Spelling mistakes are terrible to come across. I read a book once where the pages were out of sequence. I took the book back to the book store. I don't know if anything ever happened to rectify it after that.

Re: Undead And Undermined (6:25pm July 22, 2011):

You go right ahead & have your say. I enjoyed it immensely.

"JUST ONE SEASON IN LONDON" looks just wonderful. On my list.

Re: Runestone (8:48pm July 9, 2011):

Like most things, sexy is subjective. It's NOT all about the hot bod or smoldering looks. Intellect & a quick wit can be HOT!!

Re: Loved By A Warrior (8:53pm July 6, 2011):

Myths, legends and curses grew out of a way for people to explain their fear, superstitions & even traditions. Something happened & then it grew. Fascinating topic!!

Re: Break Out (7:45am July 4, 2011):

I can't think of any genres that should not be crossed. God writing is good writing.

Re: Wild and Unruly (12:28pm July 1, 2011):

Why wouldn't time travel be possible? Maybe it's already here but we just can't see it.

Re: Fallen (11:28pm June 29, 2011):

Thank you giving us the back info for FALLEN. I always appreciate it. It looks like an amazing read.

Re: Dying For Justice (8:06am June 28, 2011):

I don't dwell on worst case scenarios in my life. I'd rather focus on the positives. So no great fears that concern me. In fiction, personal safety would factor in to what I like to read.

Re: Night Veil (1:09am June 27, 2011):

BATMAN: a dark, tormented hero. Got to love that.

Re: Missing Persons (7:45am June 25, 2011):

Re: Under a Desert Sky (8:32pm June 18, 2011):

HEA means finally making a true, lasting connection.

Re: Virgin (1:04am June 17, 2011):

"He's never met anyone who made him purr..." - that is such a wonderful line.

Re: Louisa And The Missing Heiress (2:53am June 15, 2011):

I do it all the time, especially with historical fiction. I become so immersed in the story I don't leave off when finished.

Re: Hard Bitten (10:04pm June 14, 2011):

The visit to the library is always greatly anticipated. You never know what treasures you will unearth.

Re: Blood Of The Wicked (7:19pm June 13, 2011):

I think being intuitive, or following your instincts, may have been considered witchcraft at one time.

Re: Ashes Of The Earth (6:01pm May 17, 2011):

Re: Heart of Deception (6:51pm April 29, 2011):

Hats make my head hot & give me a headache so needless to say I am NOT a hat person. I saw some amazing hats & head pieces at the Royal Wedding though. Divine.

Re: My Favorite Countess (4:11am April 28, 2011):

Is DR GREGORY HOUSE a hero? Perhaps not, but certainly fascinating.

Re: Never A Gentleman (1:32am April 27, 2011):

I have not read NEVER A GENTLEMAN - yet, but I know I will. It sounds wonderful.

Re: The Alchemy of Desire (6:01pm April 25, 2011):

Re: Vowed In Shadows (4:57pm April 11, 2011):

Cathy from "Wutherings Heights". Such tortured & encompassing love. I admire strength in my heroines. Cathy may not exactly fit this but to feel such excruciating passion in one's life.....

Re: Deadly Ties (6:49pm April 10, 2011):

I had this problem with work colleagues to the point that I was forced out simply because they thought they could say & do whatever they liked to me & I should just take it. I was unemployed but free.

I wish I knew some Celtic Legends to be able to choose a favorite. The book looks amazing.

I actually don't think I would like to. I would prefer my imagination. Reality may not be what I would expect. I may be disappointed

Re: Play Me (7:56am March 29, 2011):

I agree about the language. It makes the love/sex scenes coarse & vulgar. Otherwise within the context of a story - why not?

Re: A Lot Like Love (6:00pm March 24, 2011):

A quiet house & a cup of tea. The wine would just knock me out. So best not during the day.

Re: Laird of Darkness (8:02am March 23, 2011):

Fresh Heroines: I love the sound of that. Unconventional & bold makes for great reading.

I would fight with every breath if everything, or rather everyone, I held dear was in jeopardy.

Re: It Happened One Bite (1:06am March 14, 2011):

A coven of Scottish witches. Heavenly!! Wrong word really but I don't care.

Re: Angel's Rest (3:17am March 12, 2011):

I think it is very helpful if writers tuck their genres under different pen names.

Re: What I Did For A Duke (4:45pm March 10, 2011):

My sister introduced me to your books & I am so pleased she did. Fingers crossed!!

Road trips either bring out the worst or the best of my family. A revelation either way.

Re: Storm Of Reckoning (5:22pm February 19, 2011):

I always appreciate knowing the thought behind the writing. I often have wondered how you know when & how to move the 'chess pieces' around to a very satisfying conclusion.

Re: Beneath The Night Tree (2:31am February 18, 2011):

My own first love did not go well. We had nothing much in common & he loved himself more than me. Sad, but true.

Re: Deadly Ties (4:55pm February 7, 2011):

It takes great courage to leave. I can't wait to read how you managed to see both sides.

Re: Midnight Caller (3:47pm February 6, 2011):

Sounds like a great read. Well done!!

Re: These Things Hidden (3:45pm February 6, 2011):

Being a good mother means living for the small moments & planning ahead for the larger ones. To love unconditionally & be loved in return.

Re: Midnight Caller (6:13pm February 5, 2011):

No matter how opposite, it is the'something in common' that I find compelling.

Re: The Mysterious Lady Law (5:23pm February 4, 2011):

Cruelty of the basest kind would never be forgiven. Think rape, bestiality etc.

Re: Haunting Jasmine (4:15pm January 30, 2011):

Thank you for the wonderful journey through Virgin River. Loved it!!!

Re: The Werewolf Upstairs (5:07pm January 28, 2011):

Lust at first sight - yes. Love at first sight - yes please!!

Re: Kiss At Your Own Risk (3:38pm January 12, 2011):

Here in Australia we are experiencing weather & floods & disaster that would break most. Australians are tough & resilient. When we get knocked down, we come back up fighting. I live in the town of Toowoomba, QLD that first experienced the disastrous, deadly flash floods that then swept on to other communities. We have picked ourselves up & asked what can we do to help? We grieve, we hurt, we mourn & we look to the future.

Re: Wicked Seduction (5:27pm January 11, 2011):

I'm a neat freak. It's a blessing & a curse.

Re: Murder In Plain Sight (4:18pm December 20, 2010):

Small towns generate a different vibe in fiction as in life.

We are not a country music household - more jazz, blues. I do appreciate a great country tune though.

Re: The Taming Of The Wolf (12:56pm November 19, 2010):

Re: Swift Justice (5:11pm November 17, 2010):

I still approach Christmas with child-like wonder. My favorite holiday.

Re: Miracle Baby (5:08pm November 17, 2010):

Re: Somewhere Along the Way (2:08am November 17, 2010):

I can only imagine how hard you must work to write & write well. Bravo!!

Re: Sazerac Seduction (5:41pm October 10, 2010):

My dream man would 'get' me. My humor, my foibles, my dreams. He would understand that my being a strong woman does NOT make him weak. On the contrary.

Re: Venom (6:32pm September 23, 2010):

I agree about Beauty & the Beast and the 'classic' Batman series. Robin had some of the funniest one-liners EVER.

Re: For the King's Favor (6:16pm September 22, 2010):

History is alive & well. I can never understand why people find history 'dry'. It is vibrant & full of fascinating people. I can't wait to read FOR THE KING'S FAVOR.

Re: Secrets Volume 29 Indulge Your Fantasies (6:13pm September 21, 2010):

Heroes step into danger to protect others.

Re: Desperate Deeds (7:36pm September 8, 2010):

It's all there in the genre wording. The romance & the suspense. It's the flight in the night. The intrigue.

Re: Warrior (10:39pm September 6, 2010):

I appreciate intelligent. Love my history & especially love it wrapped up in a great book or series.

Re: Warrior (2:20am September 6, 2010):

Great insight thank you. I can't say I have a particular warrior or type of warrior that stands above the rest.

Re: Deadly Fear (7:26pm August 26, 2010):

If I am going to 'connect' with a monster I need that human element to cling to.

Re: Fortunate Harbor (6:57pm July 15, 2010):

This seems like a 'gentle' read. Deliciously so.

Re: Murder in the Abstract (8:22am July 14, 2010):

Love a bad boy. The book looks amazing.

Re: Ice Cold (7:04pm July 13, 2010):

True events make for even scarier because 'stuff' really does happen.

Re: To Conquer a Highlander (7:01pm July 13, 2010):

Apart from books I cull more than I collect.

Re: The 1st Wife (6:27pm July 9, 2010):

When I walk I sort out my life. It's very calming & invigorating at the same time.

Re: The Wild Irish Sea (6:34pm July 8, 2010):

A wonderful list of 10. I will be pleased to read more. The books sounds brilliant. Fingers crossed.

We have a lot of Christmas traditions that I just love. Decorating the tree is such a family affair.

Re: Home is Where the Bark is (7:00pm July 4, 2010):

Wow given the opportunity to undress an eighteenth century gentlemen I would not say no. Fascinating thank you.

Re: Rapture Untamed (8:04pm June 29, 2010):

I like both. A stand alone would be my first choice, but a series allows you to delve further.

Re: The Master & the Muses (7:25pm June 28, 2010):

The perfect hero is strong, vulnerable & imperfect. The perfect heroine is also strong, she is feisty & does not wait around to be rescued.

Re: Tempting a Proper Lady (4:51pm June 23, 2010):

Romance is an escape. A delicious thrill.

Re: The Devil She Knows (6:24pm June 22, 2010):

I could go happily with either. I love a steady man but a drifter, as it were, intriguing.

Re: Summer Sanctuary (6:49pm June 21, 2010):

As a child I loved Enid Blyton's books. Not saucy or racy but controversial enough to be banned now & then. Taking PC way too far.

Re: Smooth Talking Stranger (6:35pm June 20, 2010):

BBQ & beer is the way to go with my Dad. Never fails to please.

Re: The Lies We Told (7:24pm June 18, 2010):

Re: Stolen Son (7:00pm June 17, 2010):

The incident is everything.

Re: Dragon Unmasked (4:56pm June 16, 2010):

Work gets in the way of my reading, especially when I take it home. The withdrawal symptoms are painful.

I can't remember. It was a very long time ago. Jeans most likely.

Re: The 1st Wife (4:35pm June 9, 2010):

A small community can be very isolating if the locals shut you out. I think you need to be born into it.

Re: Desire Me (6:54pm June 8, 2010):

I went on a scavenger hunt with the Girl Guides once. We had such a brilliant time. Good fun!!

Re: Guardian (5:15pm June 7, 2010):

I love sagas. I feel I get to know the characters very well. See their growth.

So long as I could return whenever I wish. Regency England to meet MY Mr Darcy.

Re: Sex Drive (4:11pm May 10, 2010):

I have Young Adults in the house so YES I read YA. I'm not going to miss out because of my age.

The best thing is I have ALL the school holidays off - I am an Early Childhood Teacher. The worst is, for the work I do, I don't have nearly enough holidays.

Re: In Shelter Cove (4:54pm May 4, 2010):

I like men in uniform - firemen, police, etc. Good men doing an amazing job.

Re: His Border Bride (4:20pm May 3, 2010):

My hero changes as often as my books. A touch of bad boy is always a good thing. More fun.

Re: Think Twice (7:06pm May 2, 2010):

I am actually not too sure what qualifies as a cozy mystery. Chances are I have read my fair share though.

Re: Blood Of The Demon (6:06pm April 30, 2010):

Re: The Teaberry Strangler (6:57pm April 25, 2010):

The Bride Series will be an absolute pleasure. I just know this!!

Re: In For A Penny (5:33pm April 23, 2010):

Re: Building Iphone Apps With Html, CSS, And Javascript (5:18pm April 17, 2010):

I love the mix of historical fact & fiction. I feel more involved in the story if the facts are correct & woven in.

I love a HEA after the expected tussle of personalities etc. It's the journey I need to reach a happy conclusion.

Re: An Earl to Enchant (7:58am March 31, 2010):

Yes, Little Women stands proud for me among all children in stories. I laughed with them & I cried. A beautiful & worthy classic.

Re: Big Girl (4:45pm March 21, 2010):

I don't feel embarrassed or guilty about anything I read or have read. I'm a grown-up. I'm allowed.

Re: Something About You (5:46pm March 19, 2010):

Wrong time, wrong place - love that because we all can relate. I think that suspense interspersed with humor & a little romance works brilliantly. I want all my emotions to come into play. I was thinking about Cary Grant in "Father Goose". Funny war time movie.

Re: Saving CeeCee Honeycutt (5:48pm February 22, 2010):

Friendship is essential for my well-being.

Re: The Edge of Winter (3:25pm February 21, 2010):

The one's that stand out are the Christmas seasonal books. I can't recall titles but I seek them out at that time of year.

Re: The Betrayal Of The Blood Lily (6:21pm February 20, 2010):

When I need to get away I head for the beach. I love the sand & sea - not too much of the sun. Otherwise I just escape inside a book.

Re: Chick with a Charm (6:22pm February 19, 2010):

I would love to read KISS & HELL. Fingers crossed. It looks fabulous.

Re: Hot Stuff (5:13pm February 14, 2010):

I don't put much faith in Valentines. I agree it is all the other times that love shines through that I appreciate.

Re: Promise Me Tonight (5:54pm February 12, 2010):

I love them all but the Man's Man & The Professor get my heart racing.

Re: Fantasy in Death (11:29pm February 11, 2010):

The 30th book. I am most impressed.

Re: The Dead Travel Fast (11:28pm February 11, 2010):

I had always imagined the title to come first.

Re: Raining Cat Sitters And Dogs (4:12pm February 10, 2010):

Very interesting. Thank you.

Re: Tragedy At Two (6:35pm February 9, 2010):

I look forward to reading the new series.

As a reader I am in total awe & admiration of writers. The dedication & skill is one I envy.

Re: Triumph in Arms (2:20am February 7, 2010):

There are many truths to be found in fairy tales & fiction.

Re: Legend Of The White Wolf (4:57pm February 5, 2010):

Legend of the White Wolf is now on my must read list. Love hot, sexy werewolves.

Re: Viking in Love (2:58pm February 4, 2010):

Fresh Fiction has introduced new, & now favorite authors, to me time & again. As an author you must love sites like this that bring new readers to your work.

Re: The Phoenix Charm (3:31pm February 3, 2010):

There is something magic about Celtic I always feel.

Re: Deadtown (3:29pm February 3, 2010):

I love getting to know authors as well. Great insight. Thank you.

Re: Catch Of A Lifetime (5:25pm February 2, 2010):

I love a clever, witty pun, almost as much as mermaids & mermen. Keep writing!

Re: Drive Time (9:04pm February 1, 2010):

I never break a confidence. However, if I knew something that should be made open I would not hesitate in that case. This has not happened yet.

Re: Down By The River (2:16am January 31, 2010):

My daughter introduced me to Terry Pratchett. Brilliantly bizarre.

Re: Hasta La Vista, Lola! (6:33pm January 29, 2010):

I can only imagine how hard it is to research & write. Thank you for the insight.

Re: The Secret Of Joy (3:39pm January 28, 2010):

Every family has some sort of secret & it makes for an intriguing and interesting read.

Re: Forbidden Heat (3:28pm January 27, 2010):

Fabulous insight!! I did wonder. I am always amazed by the amount of knowledge that is out there in the world just waiting to be discovered.

Re: Hold On Tight (10:01pm January 26, 2010):

I definitely look things up. I don't find I lose momentum in the story. In fact I feel it enriches it.

Re: Down River (11:10pm January 25, 2010):

I have always considered Alaska as a true natural beauty. A great setting for a book.

Re: Down By The River (5:20pm January 24, 2010):

I do love series. I always read them in order & savour every word.

Re: Rogue Stallion (5:26pm January 23, 2010):

WOW!! That's sad. Though I do recognize some of the author's, I could not tell you what they are up to now.

Re: Maya's Gold (5:19pm January 22, 2010):

Fabulous. Thank you!!

Re: Dead Head (3:29pm January 21, 2010):

Love the dress. I hope you feel like a million dollars in it!!

Re: Love Story (5:35pm January 20, 2010):

A loss to the world.

Re: Succubi Like It Hot (5:35pm January 20, 2010):

In my experience road trip equals unpredictability. You've got to love that!!!

Re: A Bolt From The Blue (10:00pm January 19, 2010):

I enjoyed reading this. I wondered about authors leaving off projects, characters, ideas & then picking them up later on & reworking.

Re: Getting Lucky (4:36pm January 18, 2010):

I'm with everyone else, series are the best. Characters become like old friends.

Re: Forbidden Falls (6:19pm January 17, 2010):

Apart from my computer which I could NOT live without, I don't have any techno devices. I don't miss them & I really don't want them.

Re: The Keepers Of Sulbreth (6:19pm January 15, 2010):

I ca answer yes to all of the questions. My problem in the past has been character names that I would NEVER be able to pronounce out loud. Trying to be too, too clever with names annoys me.

Re: Forget Me Not (10:29pm January 13, 2010):

What an eventful time. Thank you for sharing.

Re: Sleep No More (5:26pm January 12, 2010):

I don't know anyone who sleep walks. It would be terrifying.

Re: Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy (6:47pm January 11, 2010):

Thank you for the fabulous insight. I am a massive Jane Austen fan as well.

Re: Come Hell Or High Water (5:50pm January 10, 2010):

My perfect day: no hassles, no dramas, a little indulgence & sanity prevails.

Re: Not My Daughter (6:15pm January 8, 2010):

Fabulous insight. I imagine there would be a lot of research & fact checking even with the familiar.

Re: Sizzle (6:13pm January 8, 2010):

Villains definitely shape the heroes & often drag them down to their level. Tarnished heroes are a real possibility if they want to win.

Re: My Dearest Mr. Darcy (10:15pm January 7, 2010):

'Gone With The Wind' when Scarlett is forced to deliver Melanie's baby is my favorite & the most memorable. Prissy is the star.

Re: Come Hell Or High Water (10:05pm January 6, 2010):

I have never had a mistake turn out well. Just mistakes!!

Re: Deadtown (10:02pm January 6, 2010):

Vulnerabilities & which "kryptonite" kills which creature & how. I enjoy author interpretations of supposedly known 'facts'.

Re: Fugitive (6:29pm January 5, 2010):

What a great interview. Now you've done it, I need to find out more.

Re: Dangerous Highlander (5:50pm January 4, 2010):

Thanks for the insight. I had no idea. The next time I pick up a book I will be much more aware of the title issue. It seems though that the Author should have much more control & say.

Re: Shattered (9:04pm January 1, 2010):

My goals tend to be more daily. Today I will do this or finish that.

Re: Deadly Liaisons (4:58pm December 31, 2009):

I want guys with bite. Both werewolves & vampires are on my list of HOT!!!! I would choose werewolves for pure, raw energy.

Re: Angel Lane (5:39pm December 30, 2009):

I don't make New Year's resolutions. I never keep them, so why set myself up for failure.

Re: What I Did For Love (6:26pm December 29, 2009):

The Wild Things by David Eggers & Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger

Re: Breakfast In Bed (6:20pm December 28, 2009):

What a great introduction to the book & characters. My interest is certainly piqued.

Re: Kitty's House Of Horrors (5:48pm December 27, 2009):

Hello Kitty!!!! They look fabulous. Thank you for the heads up.

Re: Twenties Girl (5:30pm December 26, 2009):

Wild, desolate moors. I am heavily influenced by my love of Wuthering Heights.

Re: Searching For Pemberley (2:40am December 23, 2009):

Another book to add to my must read list. I adore Austen.

Re: Paraworld Zero (5:09pm December 21, 2009):

The book looks amazing. My mother lived through a fire as a child & is still troubled by it. So best wishes.

Re: The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings (5:05pm December 19, 2009):

Gandalf obviously. A wizard powerful enough & dark enough to combat the forces of Sauron & Mordor.

Re: Mennonite Community Cookbook (5:01pm December 19, 2009):

Traditional for us means making everything from scratch using the best ingredients. I still cook this way. It is cheaper & more nutritious & brings the family together for preparation & cooking & eating time.

Re: Gentlemen Prefer Succubi (5:54pm December 18, 2009):

I want both Vampire & Angel. So naughty of me.

Re: The Beautiful Being (3:33pm December 17, 2009):

Thank you for the interesting insight. I admire the tenacity of writers & I am so very thankful. I wouldn't have so many wonderful books to read otherwise.

Re: Divorced, Desperate and Deceived (7:56pm December 16, 2009):

The list was hilarious. My hero would never say: real men don't wear condoms. I have actually heard it said & I couldn't leave fast enough.

Re: Wild Heart (6:45pm December 14, 2009):

I thoroughly enjoyed the insight. There is so much more than meets the eye - as it were

Re: Rainwater (2:31am December 14, 2009):

I don't have a set time-frame for historical. Sometimes it is a certain feel to a story. If pushed I would say before my birth. So go back at least 50 years.

Re: The Killing Hands (5:17pm December 11, 2009):

Interesting way to write. I wonder how it all fits together.

Re: Love in Translation (9:16pm December 10, 2009):

I have never lived abroad. I imagine there would be many challenges. Exciting though.

Re: Urgent Care (5:00pm December 9, 2009):

I laughed out loud at what you have written here. I could so easily imagine it. Brilliant!!

Re: Searching For Pemberley (3:41pm December 3, 2009):

As a HUGE Jane Austen fan I would love to read SEARCHING FOR PEMBERLEY. Fingers crossed!!

Re: Sex Drive (6:55pm December 2, 2009):

I do love to read series. I think 4-6 books in a series allows for growth & interaction to fully develop.

Re: Scorched (6:29pm December 1, 2009):

I laughed over the Health Advisories. Very true.

Re: Snow Angels (3:28am December 1, 2009):

Having recently read my first Kathy Reich book, I know I will be searching for more. Fun & murder & a little science.

Re: Take Me For A Ride (7:25pm November 28, 2009):

I left out the sugar in a batch of cookies & you wouldn't believe how nasty they were.

Re: Over My Dead Body (7:39pm November 27, 2009):

I nominate my sister. She lives near our aging parents & does SO much for them.

Re: Knit The Season (7:38pm November 27, 2009):

I love to knit. I tend to knit a lot for the premmies at the hospital.

Re: Captive of Sin (7:20am November 27, 2009):

I have just watched an excellent new British production of Wuthering Heights so Heathcliff is foremost in my mind.

Re: It Happened One Night (6:15am November 27, 2009):

Finding myself has been worth the wait. I have discovered a great deal about myself along the way & I feel I am now stronger, wiser & fearless.

Re: Prime Evil (2:14am November 22, 2009):

I have so much respect for writers. I can barely put 2 words together some days.

Re: The Vampire Diaries: The Awakening (2:12am November 22, 2009):

Angelus: no question, no doubt. What a smackdown that would be though.

Re: The Monuments Men (9:21pm November 20, 2009):

Just fascinating. Who ever said history is dead, is - well - dead wrong.

Re: The Splendor Falls (8:32pm November 19, 2009):

The Splendor Falls sounds wonderful.

Re: Dark Legacy (6:16pm November 18, 2009):

The cover is brilliant. The story looks superb. Thank you for sharing. I SO have my fingers crossed.

Re: The Accidental Werewolf (7:40pm November 17, 2009):

The gift of books has certainly widened my choice of reading. Having been introduced to certain authors I have sought more of their work. Word of mouth very is important too.

Re: Men Of The Otherworld (5:46pm November 16, 2009):

Clayton Danvers gets my blood pumping.

Re: Prime Evil (5:44pm November 16, 2009):

I don't know the types of vampires well, so I am with Lisa - hot & sexy.

Re: Over My Dead Body (5:42pm November 16, 2009):

I am going to visit my parents next week & I am shamelessly looking forward to my mother making all my favorites. For one whole week I will be someone's child again, not the responsible adult. I can't tell you how peaceful that is.

Re: Dead Pan (2:31am November 15, 2009):

I love all the titles. As I read down the page my smile just continued to grow. You now have my complete attention.

Re: Kill Zone (5:43pm November 13, 2009):

I believe in happiness. It's not enough to just live. As a mother all I have ever wanted for my children is to be happy. Achieving their true goals & potential.

Re: Willoughby's Return (9:06pm November 12, 2009):

Damn, I want to read this. I could practically recite Austen by heart & as for Willoughby - the cad & bounder - yes please!! A ball gown would be heavenly - so feminine & lady-like.

Re: Love You To Death (9:03pm November 12, 2009):

You had me at damn good-looking.

Re: Bunco Babes Gone Wild (10:58pm November 11, 2009):

Granny knickers: we all have at least one pair.

Re: Children of the Night (10:53pm November 11, 2009):

I go back to Bram Stoker time & again.

Re: Kindred In Death (4:59pm November 10, 2009):

I have one - a classic - Mr Darcy: I just want to melt his buttons & dip him in chocolate.

Re: Spinning Forward (4:57pm November 10, 2009):

Beautifully said. I am very keen to read SPINNING FORWARD.

Re: The Princess Bride (3:52pm November 9, 2009):

I do not have a favorite line, but I love the fact that no one can ever penetrate a mask as a disguise.

Re: Kindred In Death (3:16am November 9, 2009):

Long running series are always welcome. It's like coming home.

Re: Wild Blue Under (3:15am November 9, 2009):

I love the title WILD BLUE UNDER. It invites further investigation.

Re: Rainwater (5:26pm November 7, 2009):

I don't find book trailers very helpful. So, I tend not to view them. Not what you want to hear after all your hard work, but there it is. I would rather read reviews & excerpts.

Re: One Lucky Cowboy (3:40pm November 5, 2009):

I love cowboys & so look forward to reading One Lucky Cowboy.

Re: The Wrong Side of Dead (1:12am November 4, 2009):

A very, dirty, dirty old, old, old, old man. EWWWWW!!! Not love. I'm assuming barely lust even. For her part - what is she thinking???

Re: Killjoy (6:38pm November 3, 2009):

My favorite villain right now is not in print but on TV. SYLAR from Heroes is a villain I love to watch. He is so incredibly dark & interesting. The twisted wry humor shines through.

Re: Captive Desires (6:22pm November 2, 2009):

My creative escape is craft. I couldn't possibly sleep on a pillow case without the embroidery. Fairies dancing around my back garden would be delightful.

Re: Remembering Ashby (12:01pm November 1, 2009):

I actually groaned when the excerpt ran out. Not fair!!

Re: Final Approach (7:35pm October 30, 2009):

Recycling is a stroke of genius. All this candy talk makes me want to scavenge out some right now.

Re: Haunted (7:31pm October 30, 2009):

I love witches too. It's important to have a little magic in ones life.

Re: What The Duke Desires (5:32pm October 29, 2009):

I love books & indeed series about families. It's often more involving. The dynamics are always interesting.

Re: Kindred In Death (4:42pm October 28, 2009):

I treat myself at birthdays & Christmas & yes, books always top the list.

Re: Mr. Darcy Vampyre (4:40pm October 28, 2009):

I love the original, bring it on. I can't wait to read this. Fingers crossed.

Re: Silver Silence (8:00pm October 27, 2009):

I hear Avalon & immediately I want more. So, very well done. I have my fingers crossed.

Re: Fool Moon (6:29pm October 25, 2009):

I don't have the opportunity to listen to audio books & I don't have a strange story so aren't I a dull one?

Re: Santa Honey (7:00pm October 23, 2009):

I'm not much into ebooks yet. I love holding a print copy in my hand as I read. Walking into a book store is my Alladin's Cave. Full of treasures & pleasures.

Re: Possess Me At Midnight (6:14pm October 22, 2009):

Romance should be much more & thank you for recognising that. Not easy for you but well worth the read.

Re: My Wicked Vampire (6:17pm October 20, 2009):

Humor is subjective. I can well believe it would be harder to write. I do know that when an author hits just the right tone & connects, I return for more laughs. So, well done. You make me come back.

Re: Loot the Moon (11:51pm October 19, 2009):

Job satisfaction & mentally crossing off tasks motivates me. I hate having things hanging over me still waiting to be done. I find that oppressive.

Re: Finger Lickin' Fifteen (3:09am October 18, 2009):

I want just enough to get a feel for the location, situation, history etc. Then the stage is ready for the characters to do their thing.

Re: The Trials Of The Honorable F. Darcy (8:46am October 16, 2009):

I am a dedicated 'Austenite'. Elizabeth Bennett is my favorite Austen woman. She gets Darcy after all.

Re: A Marquis To Marry (4:30pm October 14, 2009):

Another fabulous book to add to my wish list. So many books so little time. If that's my biggest problem today then life is grand.

Re: The Hunt (11:04pm October 12, 2009):

I think change is a good thing. To reinvent oneself is empowering.

Re: The Promise (7:06pm October 11, 2009):

I would go through the TBR books & weed out those that I no longer felt COMPELLED to read. Having said that my list continues to grow & I love the fact that I will always, ALWAYS have books to read.

Re: A Hollywood Ending (12:02pm October 11, 2009):

I have also been reading SEP for a long time now & always enjoy. My current favorite, favorite is Annie Solomon. I am rediscovering her work.

Re: Demon Ex Machina (1:22am October 6, 2009):

There is nothing better than losing oneself in the magic of a book, except eating chocolate & reading.

Re: A Dark Love (1:02am October 1, 2009):

A fascinating insight. I can't wait to read A Dark Love.

Re: Lucky Break (11:18pm September 29, 2009):

I love a story that brings a smile to my lips & a book that makes me laugh with delight is a joy. Humor is an element that will encourage me to read on & seek out further work.

Re: Bluegrass Christmas (8:05pm September 28, 2009):

For me quirky translates to a lot of fun & a connection to the character.

Re: Shades of Twilight (7:04pm September 27, 2009):

I have been to one book signing. The talk beforehand was most inciteful. I loved this. I have been on the lookout for more in my area.

Re: The Accidental Family (7:04pm September 23, 2009):

My children made me challenge who I am. I grew in ways I would never have imagined. I continue to evolve & I am loving it. Enjoy!!

Re: Oscar Wilde And The Dead Man's Smile (7:00pm September 22, 2009):

Oscar Wilde speaks to so many of us. A great influence & extremely interesting - the man & his works. I have my fingers crossed for the set of Oscar Wilde mysteries.

Re: A Christmas Ball (5:26pm September 21, 2009):

Christmas is a big deal in our family. We have so many traditions that just make it extra special for us. They wouldn't mean much to others - small things like having nuts in shells stuffed into the toes of children's Christmas stockings. Always a joy.

Re: Audrey's Door (7:05pm September 18, 2009):

My first thought was that the writing touched on something very personal & painful in your 'number one' fan's life. I on the other hand want to lose myself in fiction, warts & all. A happy childhood as given me that safety net.

Re: Beast Warrior (4:47pm September 16, 2009):

There is something absolutely fascinating about werewolves. I certainly appreciated all the information about wolves. I think that all creatures have a place on our world - in reality & fiction.

Re: Loving Mr. Darcy (12:48pm September 12, 2009):

I see Darcy & my radar goes up. I can't wait to read Loving Mr Darcy.

Re: The Splendor Falls (12:45pm September 12, 2009):

Dying For Chocolate by Diane Mott Davidson comes immediately to my mind. I bought this for the title - relevant to my way of thinking - & was not dissapointed at all.

Re: Tie Me Down (5:55pm September 6, 2009):

I long to visit New Orleans. Until then I will content myself with the written word.

Re: Table Manners (5:52pm September 6, 2009):

I gardened all weekend. Up to my neck in compost & manure. Then I bathed & settled in with a book in one hand & a glass of wine in the other.

Re: Highland Rebel (6:24pm September 3, 2009):

I expect to be lost in another world when I read. I immerse myself into the story. If I can't find myself being drawn in by the end of the first page then I know it will not happen for that particular book. That does not mean it's a total loss just that I am outside reading in. One of my favorite books to be lost in is a classic: Gone With The Wind.

Re: The Treasures Of Venice (5:41pm August 27, 2009):

"The Treasures of Venic" looks fabulous. Love the name. It says read me. We celebrate the arrival of spring after a long cold winter.

Re: Feels Like The First Time (4:45am August 26, 2009):

Men In Black: everyone looks GOOOOOOD in a sharp suit & sunglasses. To represent myself I would have to say move over 'Suzie Homemaker'.

Re: In the Master's Bed (8:09pm August 24, 2009):

Back To School means: morning rush, checking homework, lost school gear - give me the holidays anytime thank you. It's a welcome break for Mum too.

Re: Skykeepers (12:02pm August 22, 2009):

As a huge Oded fan - he's SO gorgeous - love the choice.

Re: To Tempt The Wolf (7:26pm August 20, 2009):

If I could think of something terribly original I might be tempted to hash something out myself. I applaud all writers. I would not know where to begin. It has to be more fun being a reader.

Re: Tortured (7:38pm August 18, 2009):

TORTURED sounds fabulous. I love historical with a twist. I have my fingers crossed for this.

Re: Beloved Vampire (1:25am August 18, 2009):

Fabulous thus far!! Whiny is SO unattractive. Don't eat where you piss - as it were. (Mind my French). Eroticism needs to be hot, hard & heavy. Cheers!!

Re: Breaking Loose (3:21am August 13, 2009):

HOLDEN FJ: his name was Billy - it still is I suppose. Young love is like body armor nothing else penetrates.

Re: Nothing But Scandal (12:18pm August 8, 2009):

I am ALWAYS the heroine. That's the best way to fully immerse myself.

Re: Babydoll (6:59pm August 4, 2009):

Going by your quiz questions we would kill each other. We work best together in the garden. He actually likes all the dirty, heavy work & I like to water the plants & admire - him & the garden.

Re: The Texas Twins (3:19am June 2, 2009):

The Texas Twins: I could just eat them up with a spoon.
