Just out of curiosity I checked your shelves and found you have books on your to-read shelves for all of those 80's years. I also noticed you seem to like Garwood. I read Honor's Splendour for 1985 and loved it. Lisa Kleypas's Where Passion Leads is from 1987 and it's sequel Forever My Love from 1988. HTH

Autumn, you've made my day! Loved it! *hugs*

I must be out of my mind but I can't help myself. I have to give this one a try.
