I'm in the horrid mood when I feel like reading something!!! I just don't know what!!! Lol
Jealous of that Keepsake ARC, Stacey! ;)
I started--about a year after all the hype about it--Act Like It by Lucy Parker last night. It's a hate to love book about two London theatre actors who are forced to pretend to have a fake romance for the tabloids. Hero is a big star but has a reputation for being a jerk in the press, heroine is an up and comer with a "sweetheart" reputation so she's supposed to make him look better so ticket sales for their play will rise. Of course they loathe one another. So far so good. It got ALL the great reiews when it came out, so I'm hoping it will live up to it's reputation.

I am in heavy writing mode this week since I have a deadline to meet by November 1. But I hope to find time to read Terri Osburn's Her Hopes and Dreams. I've been looking forward to this one, particularly after reading the excerpt Terri posted. I also have my first ever Jill Mansell ARC! I hope I get to it this week as well.




When I have time to read I am slowly reading All a Heart Needs by Barbara Freethy.

Definitely Irisheyes...saying that, I haven't read a lot. I need to find some time to read more of them. :-) ♥

Cool, Nicole! SEP is definitely a treasure. Her backlist isn't terribly long but there are so many great reads in it.

I want to go to the Shipley Farm and sit at the big table for dinner, with Grandpa saying the blessings and Kyle and Kieran making silly comments.
