Everything about that book appealed to me. Sorry I took so long to acknowledge your remark, Lea; I tend to forget threads when they go off page. :-(<br /><br />IMO, you can't go wrong with Loretta Chase. Try Mr. Impossible, it's my next favorite. I absolutely love Rupert. <3Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151587271439513617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-30048689050827971952016-05-01T13:32:37.504-07:002016-05-01T13:32:37.504-07:00Can I just say that I'm a staunch democrat and...Can I just say that I'm a staunch democrat and I hate Hillary.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603287422043758944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-70130346107752930192016-04-30T23:45:02.329-07:002016-04-30T23:45:02.329-07:00PS - that last comment was mine - Google is screwi...PS - that last comment was mine - Google is screwing with me today :(Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04745608296468827669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-23386009017201164092016-04-30T23:43:12.139-07:002016-04-30T23:43:12.139-07:00Thanks AL, that was a good read. Makes me want to ...Thanks AL, that was a good read. Makes me want to come up there and vote Hilary too! Fingers crossed sanity prevails and anyone but wigman gets voted in. As an aside, shouldn't someone who's been in politics longer be running, or do y'all just let anyone run? I don't get it but then I'm not political at all so...<br /><br />As another aside, I kept coming back to the comment in Lena's post about 'misdemeanor domestic violence'. According to Dictionary.com, misdemeanor is "Law. a criminal offense defined as less serious than a felony." I'm sorry but for me, domestic violence should never be considered anything less than a full on major felony. I realize that's not what her article was about but it I kept going back to those three simple words and it made me angry.<br /><br />Third aside - I had a whole list of what I did and didn't like in LoS but lost it and I'm not up to rewriting it, so here's the Cliff' Notes version...<br /><br />* They had me at the Duke being half Italian :D<br />* I liked it and would have finished sooner if not for real life.<br />* I didn't like that there wasn't more of hte grandmother - she clearly was a lady who knew what she liked and despite the times she was living in, didn't give a shit what anyone thought. Her granddaughter buying her a watch that features a sex act clearly showed that, along with her advice to her GD made me want to hear more from her. Wonder if she could get her own story lol<br />* I didn't like that I couldn't just jump into the book and smack a few people upside the head - ie the bad guys, and the H/H as well at times. Seriously, some of them deserved more than a punch.<br />* My favourite part was when Dain got the use of his arm back. I had a feeling it was all psychosomatic and thought perhaps once he realized he loved Jessica it would come back. I loved more the idea that his heart melted enough for his son's welfare and that was what worked. Total aww moment, right there :D<br /><br />I'm sure there were other moments but I can't remember. So, over all, I liked it and thanks for the heads up ladies - well worth the read and now I may possibly find the others in the series. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07916847032844036147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-87984287010449173922016-04-28T19:19:03.518-07:002016-04-28T19:19:03.518-07:00I have now. :-)

It was released April 19.<br /><br />I think full sleeve and body tattoos are a new art form. Some of them are really beautiful. However, I've never seen them in real life and I myself have never had a tattoo either.<br /><br />Give me a hint of what you think of LoS - can't be all bad if you're finishing the book, lol.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151587271439513617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-63977714873654713202016-04-20T18:35:15.672-07:002016-04-20T18:35:15.672-07:00WAs this book on one of your tbr list posts Caroly...WAs this book on one of your tbr list posts Carolyn? I seem to recall reading that blurb somewhere before...<br /><br />Does sound interesting so I guess I need to add it to my ever growing list of stuff to get to. At this rate I can build a bridge to somewhere far away with that list. I suppose it's a stand alone but if it mentions other characters, should I start at the beginning?<br /><br />ps - almost done with Lord of Scoundrels. Comments to come... lol<br /><br />pps - Umm, side note... Tattoos aren't my thing anyway but if you want one, go for it. I want to know though why it's vitally important now that you get every square inch of your body done? Was a time when one or two was a novelty. Now the novelty is finding someone without one (me, as it turns out lol) or just one or two and they're happy.Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04745608296468827669noreply@blogger.com
