Five Things that Melt My Heart #scifi #supernatural #fantasy #romance

Hi, I'm Pippa Jay, author of scifi and supernatural stories with a romantic soul. And since we're just past the supposedly most romantic day of the year, I thought I'd share some of my top heartwarming scenes and songs.

My favourite comfort watch film is probably surprising considering my dislike for horror: a zombie romance. Here are two of my favourite scenes from the film.

First up, some

Old Friends by Lynn Lovegreen

I was talking with an old friend recently, and she was reflecting on her life of 90+ years. One thing she was most grateful for is her friends.  It struck a chord in my heart. My old friends are a big part of my life.



I grew up in the military, so most of my childhood friends have scattered to the winds. But I am fortunate to have several friends that I’ve known since I was a teen or young

Friendship or Love

Hi everyone! 

I am Young Adult and Middle Grade author Barbara Binns, writer of contemporary and realistic fiction for adolescents and teens. As my tagline says, I write Stories of Real Boys Growing Into Real Men - and the people who love them.  

This month's topic involves happiness.

Love is in the Air

by Madelle Morgan

February 14th—St. Valentine's Day—is a day to remember and honor those we love, whether human or animal.






St. Valentine's Day is not just about flowers and a romantic dinner, although those are certainly lovely.






It's a day to remember the people and pets you've loved throughout your life—those who have passed, and those who are still here.

Over the years you've

The Heart of the Matter

By: Marcia King-Gamble

www.lovemarcia.com


















February is black History month. It’s also the month of love
and so I thought I’d get right to the heart of the matter with some little-known
facts about both.



This month’s blog was supposed to be about what touches my
heart; and there’s nothing that touches my heart more than learning something
new. So, here’s what

Falling Hard for Accurate History in fiction

by USA Today Bestselling Author Kristin Holt















This time of year, I can’t help but think about
romance... and the romantic fiction I’ve fallen in love with along the way.



I have a
passion for romantic stories set in the Victorian (1837 to 1901) American West. You might call me a
nut, with my longstanding blog
featuring various aspects of that historical setting—particularly

Tender moments

By Diana McCollum



What touches my heart? All the usual things Grandkids, family, flowers, butterflies, kittens and the great outdoors, etc.

Why celebrate Valentines day? by Dora Bramden

Last year's Valentine's Day heart decoration.


In a week from today, it will be Valentine's day. It's a celebration that people seem to either look forward to or hope to avoid. I'm one who looks forward to it. I always have, even when I was single. I don't subscribe to the belief that Valentine's day is only for couples. Yes, as you can see by the heart above, I'm in a relationship ,however it

The Heart of the Cosmos

By Robin Weaver



What touches my heart? A myriad of things brings a tear to
the eye and a smile to my face -- kittens, babies, the people I love.



While those wonderful things might garner an “aww,” or a “that’s
nice,” or even a “bless your heart,” talking about them won’t really entertain
you.  Have you already fallen asleep?



Well let me wake you up with my geeky love of science.  And

Things that touch my heart by Paty Jager

I'll start with a pictorial of what touches my heart. These are not in any particular order:



half my grandkids

 Grandkids touch my heart. They are fun, sassy, rowdy, intelligent, and keep us young at heart as we try to keep up with them and give them fond memories.



Hubby & Mikey

My hubby. While he can pretend he's tough and and the boss, he's a softy. He watches Hallmark movies with me
