I do want to read the secret life of bees. Thank you for thinking of me. My summer was busy then slow then busy. lol That is life. :)

Hello, Lover of Books!

I just dropped in to thank you for reading my book (Enticing Mr. Wrong) and giving it such a high grade. If I'm understanding your listing currently, it looks like it only took you 2 days to finish it. Wow! Very impressive.

Thanks again for the fantastic grade!

Wow, you do read a lot of books! I have not kept track before, but that makes it kind of fun. I have probably read about half of what you read last month.

I found my name came up on your list rather accidentally. Hope you enjoyed reading The Frog Prince. It's less steamy than some of the other books I have written, and moves in a little different direction, but fairy tales are fun to play with.

The Secret Life of Bees was soooo worth reading. I enjoyed it and I think you will too when you get around to it. :)

Sheri- You are most welcome!!

Off to reading more of my current book. :)
