Had to look it up but they are basically appetizers, small and decorative, eaten in one bite.

I do cupcakes, but not canapes. It's all you, Pamela!

I think I will try my hand at sewing fairly soon. We got my aunt a sewing machine for Mother's Day.

Please tell us what books your heroes are from. Thanks!

I'm all for the HEA, but I think it should make sense for the story and be well plotted out. I can only suspend disbelief so much.

Good to know. Thanks, Susan!

That is a very good point. I think that it does bother me a lot when authors are eager to ignore this reality.

I gave a book a low rating because the heroine was happily getting it on with a duke in her schoolhouse as an unmarried woman with a reputation to maintain. If she got caught she'd be out of a job and a pariah. I couldn't suspend any disbelief. No duke is hot enough for those consequences.

Well said!

What I love about her heroes!

I think that's why Iam okay with the ice style heroes. They live in a dark world, and they have to be a bit dark to do what they do.

Welcome, Wart.

Welcome, Pippa.

Yeah, me too, but I guess that's pretty obvious. LOL!

Kyami, can you please add the name of the book and when you finished it and what series it was in? It's harder to read your stats when you just post the bookcovers. Thanks!

Who was your favorite hero in April? Tell us why!

Haven't heard of that book, Susan. Sounds interesting. Does it have cheating/infidelity?

Well said, Natalie.

Just a reminder that self-promotion is not allowed outside of the promotions folder. I checked your profile and I couldn't tell if you are the author of the book, but it is a bit suspicious when someone posts about the same book too often.

Welcome, Suzie!
