She's raving about it - the intensity, the chemistry between the hero and heroine, the characterization of Jessica, the humor. She can't wait for Ms. Warner's other books to come out. And once I know the results of the giveaway, I'm going to run out and buy it for myself.Annettenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-62019006709665978692010-03-23T16:29:24.220-05:002010-03-23T16:29:24.220-05:00Thanks, Nancy.

Annette, I have to laugh. Tell your sister if Sam Elliot doesn't do it for her, I've received a lot more suggestions: a younger Tom Selleck, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Josh Lucas... And I'm sure there's more.Kakinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-42874225988889299142010-03-23T14:42:33.942-05:002010-03-23T14:42:33.942-05:00I posted above, so don't enter me twice into t...I posted above, so don't enter me twice into the giveaway. ;)<br /><br />Just wanted to say that my sister got the book based on my recommendation and LOVES it. (I'm still holding out for the contest.) She loves historical romance and says Jessica might be her favorite heroine ever. The only thing she wasn't thrilled about was that Brady has a mustache, as she prefers clean shaven heroes. I just told her to imagine a young Sam Elliot. <br /><br />http://www.automatedculture.com/sam_elliott/pictures.html<br /><br />Definitely works for me!Annettenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-70393003768369485002010-03-23T08:33:51.068-05:002010-03-23T08:33:51.068-05:00This sounds like a great story.
