“The sky was rarely more than pale blue or violet, with a profusion of mighty, weightless, ever-changing clouds towering up and sailing on it, but it has blue vigour in it, and at a short distance it painted the ranges of hills and the woods a fresh deep blue.”

“Normally, you don’t think about how many times you do laps. If you do, you start to get a little dizzy, go all Camus about the futility
of the situation. Your laces on the right side start to get loose from always turning against them. Normally I switch it up, do a little fancy
footwork and skate backward for a bit, but what if that messed up the youth magic? What if I sped up time instead of reversing it
and my face melted off like the Nazis when they opened the Ark of the Covenant?”

Hi, I'm very happy to meet you and look forward to discussing books with you. If you ever have any questions about any of the titles on my shelves, please ask away. I'll be happy to answer them. I’ll also share news when I can for example; did you know that in March Silhouette Desires will be putting out their 2000th book? The authors are celebrating with a special blog on eHarlequin.com .btw, I grew up reading the Pern books. I absolutely love Anne's world.
