Mod
OMG RF - that books sounds good bu..."
That's cool, Rach. I'm not surprised. It's the main reason I mentioned it. I figured EB would be able to deal; but you not so much. LOL
:) I knew you wouldn't take offense, but I'm glad that I know ahead of time!!!!
I can pull up members on my laptop but not on my phone. Anyhow RF your killing me. I do like that you told me and the fact that it's free and short I think I will try it but it will greatly depend on the overall vibe. I do not like too much past sex escapades or neglected kids. I mean is that addressed does he even see them or have any aspect in their life. Or is it all about being virile bc that greatly disturbs me. I read this one book once where the H is going to be married when his wife interrupts the wedding and announces he has 7 kids with her. It is painted like he's a jerk until you find out he was injured and had amnesia. He never went beyond a kiss with waiting bride thank god. I think that one was called highland groom. I may have to wait on that one RF the more I think the more worry I have about it.
Mod
Of course not! I know that everybody has their own tastes and their own triggers. EB and I pretty much share the same taste in books, but I know that there are ones that I read that I don't think would be a good fit for her. In the time that we've been reading buddies we've learned about each others limits. And now that you've joined us we're learning yours. When I read that part in the book I figured I'd let you and EB know about it. I figured she'd be okay with it, especially if she knew ahead of time, but I knew that you were already reaching a bit outside of your comfort zone so it probably wouldn't be a good fit for you.
It's weird how one simple sentence in a story can alter the way we feel about it. You may end up still liking it, yet still that one sentence adds a pall over the enjoyment. That's exactly what happened when I reread Brenda Joyce's BEYOND SCANDAL. Just finding out he had illegitimate children took away from the story, even though there is only a brief mention of them and we never meet them or their mother.
I found myself wondering things like, well after he and the h reconciles will he continue to see his children; will he tell the h about them, or will he keep his visits secret? Stuff like that. I can't remember now, but I'm pretty sure the children had been born before he married the h, yet it took too much of my focus from the story. Weird huh? I know it's silly, but I couldn't help it, so I 100% understand where you are coming from.
Mod
Oh girl, that was HH's book. The one where he was marrying because he had a bunch of illegitimate children and they needed a mother, but he had forgotten about his being married to the h and she had twins for him, I think. I read the blurb for that one, but haven't read the book as yet.
I don't think the children are neglected. I mean the Bard is the one who told her about them, so they know he has children. It seems common knowledge. It's a clan so they're probably being taken care of by everyone in the clan including himself and his family. It's just a mention; the story is short so there's no focus on it. Same with the other girl. It's mentioned, but you handled the scene between the H and the ME in COMING HOME TO YOU. You can handle this one; trust me! LOL But it's cool if you don't read it. With so many books to read it's not like you'd be missing anything. :-)
So after what you just said does that mean he sort of cares about his kids. I'm not joyed with the fact he has bastards but if it not in your face I may be able to get passed it. I'm not sure. Maybe I'm over thinking. Is it in your face about his conquests?
Okay you answered my question. I handled the ME but it was sheer and utter torture. Lmao. That is the book I was talking about. It's good I actually was ready to throw it to the side but hung on. It's good and I liked his wife she's a strong h. It has an emotional part when.....Spoiler.............she loses their baby but the H is really good by that point. There is something with a journal they don't want her know about certain entries.
Mod
No. Keep in mind EB, it's a really short story so all this stuff is literally mentioned that's it. No focus whatsoever. I assume he's good to his children because they are Styx acknowledged as his...The bard is the one who tells the h about them. If I have any questions about a book I usually will go to that section and read it...I actually read a little before and a little after the questionable section so that I can get a feel for how it fits into the story, and if I can deal with it.
The scene with the ME we had to read the encounter between her and the H. In this book he'sfocusing on the h, but he can hear the crowds. He hears the giggling then recognized the girl's voice. Anyhow let me find the exact spots so you can read it for yourself before you invest the time in the book.
Wait a minute, in the HH book the h lost a baby? Or are you talking about a different book?
Oh god now I have to think. It is the book you described and I thought the two get back together but there are others who have their own agenda. The woman gives his wife something in her drink that makes her miscarry almost die herself. It is the book with the journal but how embarrassing that I cannot be certain it is all in this same book I started out with. I believe it is. He's awesome with his kids. Let me check it out. Those are in my paperback upstairs.
Mod
At 51%, location 475. This is where the bard is telling her about the coupling process and mentions that the H has "wee cough drops." LOL. Bear in mind, I don't like bastard children either.
Then 82% in at location 777. That's where the mention of the other girl is found. I'm assuming the location numbers are the same on the different kindle devices. It should be. Anyhow, if you check it out you can decide if it's something you can deal with. You know how it is. I can tell you about it and try to make it seem palatable because it didn't really bother me in light of the entire story. But it might still be something that you don't want to read.
Let me know what you think either way. It's good to keep track of each other's limits.
Mod
Oh please don't be embarrassed. I get books confused all the time. It comes from reading so many books over the years. I never read that book so I only have a rudimentary knowledge of it. I remember they already had twins when she showed up at his wedding, but I wouldn't know about another later pregnancy.
I too hated that scene in COMING HOME TO YOU. Especially the oral sex post. It's just so blasted personal. It was worth getting past it though. Like you say the book was good.
Mod
Anyhow, I'm going to read another chapter of SINFUL then probably go to bed. Kids are back to school tomorrow so back to the blasted 6 a.m. wake up time. Ugh
Okay you had me questioning my thoughts. I was correct. It's scary when you spent your weekend with a person with dementia bc it makes you think will that be me? Lol. The h is not the mother of part of the kids but she takes over the role. Kate you would like that part. I need to reread the whole thing now. It's got Gilly in it. I loved her in her book. Rachel may feel different on that one bc there are these whores at the keep that are all over the H but it does not get far bc Gilly puts things to rights real quick and that strength is so awesome to watch IMO. My hubby was on the couch like where are you going? I'm like I need to check out a book upstairs. Lol. Meanwhile I have my kindle in my lap, CA books piled on the end table. No I'm not obsessed
I got an instant message from the author of under his discretion. Here it is. I have had to make a public statement about this issue because it is my good name that you are using on amazon for a war I am not even a part of. I had not even seen your review until a few minutes ago! I am beyond disappointed that you would once again think so little of me. LOL. I messaged her back and explained exactly how I saw things. According to her she is not behind any of it they are called rabid fans. At any rate my intent was to get them to back off not ruin her. So I am removing it.
I removed it and the author says she has no involvement but there are certain comments made on that page that was written just like in her instant message to me before. The guilt treatment comment was almost word for word what she wrote to me before and for the same words to come from a, "stranger" is unlikely. I do not wish to ruin her good name as she puts it but when push comes to shove WTF. I'm done for real this time RF lmao. I think. Lol. It's the red hair I swear had I been a pretty blonde like Rachel I would have let it go but red hair= temper. Lol.
Mod
What did you remove, not your review? Yes I agree with you. These women are more than likely family or friends. I don't think people who are unrelated would be so vested; either that or they have absolutely no lives. I doubt they are acting at her request, but they probably feel the need to defend her and her work. All I know is that I will not touch any of her books. I don't care if she is involved or not. I won't read an author who has so called "rabid" fans, not if I know about them before I read the author. There are too many authors and too many books out there for me to be bothered with petty crap like that. I'm allowed my opinion about a book, good or bad. I should be allowed to give that opinion free of harassment. Besides, for all you know she's one of the people who attacked your review. Maybe that's why what she said sounds so familiar. I wouldn't be surprised by anything. In any event, it's beyond suspicious that she and this "stranger" used virtually the same words.
You should be done for real this time. You certainly don't need the aggravation. Look at it this way...there are millions of other really good books of there for you to read, by hundreds of thousands of other authors. The loss of this one will be nothing. And it's not your red hair...I'd be pissed too. Shoot, just hearing about it is aggravating enough!
Ya you're not obsessed...you're just crazy! So it was the same book where the h lost a baby? She's Sigimore's sistert, correct? The H from HIGHLAND CONQUEROR?
This author is all about head games. Would you consider me a cyber bully? She wants to know who Aspoon is. I told her my friend that is defending me against the barricootas. I said I love to read and review and the last three days have pulled me away from all that God bless. She said her publishers said Aspoon is reputed as a cyber bully and she was advised to block her. I got the feeling she was trying to say bc we were friends I was the same. Well I backed up Aspoon and told her talk to her bc she's a friend and we both share a love of books. She is still messaging me even after all I've said. I do not know who Aspoon pissed off but to slap that label bc she defends her POV is wrong. She defended me why does she think I would stab her in the back? All this drama has made me miss out on finishing my books. Damn it.
Mod
Kate you're a mess. Thanks for the info on the book. The h in that book is Sigimore's sister isn't she? He's the H in the HH book we love, HIGHLAND CONQUEROR? I remember reading the blurb for HG. The illegitimate children he has doesn't bother me--medieval times and bastard children seem to go hand in hand--but I'm super picky about the HH books I read. After that one English set one I've been wary of her books.
Umm I can't remember the title now...I'll have to lookit up, but the h was pathetic and slept with the H the very same day they meet. Yes she was his captive, but he didn't force her. As a matter of fact he'd made her so mad earlier in the evening that he expected at least a little resistance and was sure he wasn't going to get any that night. But no, the heifer capitulated like a cheap whore at a prison fest! Ugh! In other ways the h wasn't bad, but I got disgusted that she was always defending his conduct even while he marched across her country and killed her people. Double ugh!!
I was so disgusted with that book! Oh the title is UNCONQUERED. It was set at the time of William's invasion of England. The h was Saxon; the H Norman. I remember she was told by a seer that one of the Normans would be her soulmate. But did that mean she had to be so EASY? I really hated that book. Since then I've become really really wary of HH's books.
Kate I've read it but has been a long time but yes I have it in paperback. On page 224-225 she is purging as they call it and they she has been poisoned. Bc she is freaking out bc she is bleeding. Her brothers who are in the room keeping her protected against Diarmot. It was said he sent the wine with the poison in it. Glenda the healer looks closer after Ilsa pulls back the covers and she is bleeding. Glenda tells her she lost the baby. It is early before she really knew but to me it was still emotional. That's sad but not meant to be. Anyhow I think the h actually has like 14 brothers but like Kate said 7 comes with her. Definitely not the woman you want to piss off. She reads his other kids stories and mothers them and then the kids start badgering their father to treat her right bc of the bind they've formed with her.
Mod
Hey EB. Yes I know she has a ton of brothers. I read Sigimor's story in HIGHLAND CONQUEROR and remember him having like a dozen brothers or more and just the one sister. LOL That's why it was such a big deal when Kate, his ladylove, gave him twin girls. LOL
Ya I remember reading reviews that the H wasn't too nice to the h in HG. That's one of the reasons why I haven't read it as yet. He sounds a right ass. I mean he was going to get married anyway and it's not like he was in love with the other woman he was about to marry, so I didn't understand the big deal. Why did he act such a fool?
RU working today? BTW if I were you I'd ask that author to stop messaging me. At this point she is just about harassing you and with so many authors in the world you really wont be missing out on anything if you don't read her books in the future. And yes I would tell her THAT. LOL I don't know about ASpoon, but cyber bully or not you're not responsible for her and that has nothing to do with you. ASpoon left a comment on your review thanking you for leaving it and saying that she didn't plan on reading the book because you raised issues that she didn't think she'd like. That's all she said. THEN one of the other "women" attacked her with a nasty comment. I'd seriously block the bitch from your FB and call it a day.
I just talked with Aspoon and Amazon deleted her comment too and they are still fighting. It's just pathetic now. She messaged me and said if you have a problem with a book in the future after you read and I thought stop right there bc I won't be reading another good or bad enjoy your " rabid" fans cause you just lost this one. She probably is going to be ruined but it will be by her own hand not mine. Lol. Anyhow HC I have but it never hooked me as her others did. To be honest I can't remember why or anything about it
I do work today and I will finish the Larry's today and will move onto coupling. After I remembered reading HG I liked that one and he hadbastards. Funny I answered my own fear accidentally. Lol.

In MISGUIDED MATCHMAKER is about a wealthy h whose father is buying her a title only she falls in love with her intended's illegitimate brother.
PLIGHT OF A LADY is about a h who is engaged to be married, but her fiance keeps putting off the wedding because of his work...he's an officer and reformed rake. When he tries yet again to put off their wedding because he is needed in Belgium, the h refuses and insists on going with him. He tries to dissuade her by telling her it will be dangerous, but to no avail. She is afraid that the H might have returned to his rakish ways. FYI the h and H were a love match, if I remember correctly. There is some intrigue by way of a duke who is obsessed with her.
Here's the blurb for LIGHTS OF VALHALLA...Charlotte Rawlings has been over the moon in love with her husband since the age of five. Such shouldn’t be a problem except that he is married to his military career not to her. When Alexander Rawlings, the Marquis Coverstone, suddenly returns home, intent upon making amends, the desire to realize her greatest dream and make their marriage more than “in name only” is a delicious temptation. However, she cannot help but doubt his intentions. For years the dowager marchioness has petitioned for her son’s discharge from service, and when a close family friend informs Charlotte that Alex will in fact be discharged if he doesn’t produce an heir, her suspicions are confirmed.
Wounded in battle and accused of murder, Alex, returns to London a half step ahead of raucous scandal and powerful enemies set on ruining him. When his wife is taken hostage and held for ransom, Alex knows past sins have caught up with him, and concern for his own safety falls by the wayside when he realizes Charlotte has become the target of his enemy’s revenge. Intent upon protecting his wife, Alex works to assuage her doubts and quickly realizes that he will not settle for simple surrender… he will only be satisfied once he wins her heart. But as rumors of infidelity and murder drag Alex and Charlotte into a dangerous mire their tenuous bond threatens to snap. Can the bonds of trust be renewed or will those intent upon revenge and destroying the young marquis succeed?
SHADOWS OF SLAVERY is about an unlikely romance between a black man, who is a merchant, and a white woman in 1820 England. It doesn't sound very likely, but the book is fiction, so maybe. Anyhow, there is only one review and it's a 3 star one.
That's it for today, ladies. TTYL!
Mod
LOL That is kinda funny! When I thought about it, I realized that I've read quite a few romances with H's who have illegitimate children; mostly Highland romances and a couple of medieval. They didn't bother me in the least. Like I said, in COUPLING the H calls his children his wee cough drops, so he obviously acknowledges them. LOL We'll talk later.
Good idea with that author and her lunatic followers. LOL IF she's not involved those fans will do a good job ruining her career if she's not careful. I'm sure she's not such a fantastic author that people will overlook that type of abuse. It's funny you don't love HC. Kate and I both LOVE that book! Sigimor is to die for. LOL
That's what is funny RF she compared herself with big named authors. According to her Rice has fans that go to these lengths. If that's the case you won't need me bc them bitches are crazy. Lol. Aspoon told the one that last I looked the girl was lecturing her on how she may have offended a mentally ill person. I'm like are you kidding me. Then she says they read too. ROTFLMAO. I tried to unfollow comments with just that review but I can't without unfollowing all my reviews. Seriously my inbox was filled with four messages this morning from them.
Why the miscarriage stood out Kate but the bastard children did not is beyond me. I would have thought it would have stood out. Lol
Mod
I don't know why the children didn't stand out EB. Did he have like four or more of them? I didn't read the book, but the impression I got was that he had quite a few of them. Y'all know how I feel about kids in my books, especially when there are so many, AND illegitimate on top of it! That's a bit bloody much as far as I am concerned. I guess the illegitimacy isn't such a big deal if the Mom/s are not in the picture, but he just had too many I think. And had the nerve to be an ass to the h. It's no wonder I never got around to reading that bloody book. I realize I might be completely wrong and the book could be totally awesome, but really...
Mod
Hey Rach! On the surface it does, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was a good story. HH is a pretty good author, but she includes a lot of my triggers. Which is why I very selective when choosing which of her books to read. Her Highland Conqueror is absolutely awesome and SAFE! I LOVED that book. It's one of my favorite highland romances. Sigimor was to die for!
The thing with HH is that no matter her heroes, her h's are usually very strong. Which is why I was so disgusted with the one in Unconquered. Ugh!
Mod
I was in my Hannah Howell period and she is a hit and miss author for me. H..."
Umm not too bright, huh? I've read a highland romance with a dumb hero before; it was Highland Solution. The H and two of the secondary characters--who end up getting their own books--carried that book, and I gave it 4 stars. The H was a good guy, but he was TSTL when it came to trusting people. Ugh! LOL The h was awesome!
So the H's wife slept with men AND women? That's a first. LOL I started reading it, but my mood went off and I never made it past the first few pages. That's back when I was in a HH mood too. It was some time last year. Believe it or not, I'd never read her before that. I read her Medieval Beauty and the Beast, which I liked. Then I tried UNCONQUERED, which I hated. HIGHLAND CONQUEROR which I loved, and another one that I can't remember right now. That's been the extent of my HH experience, although I do eye her books every time I get back in the Highland mood.
A mystery is always good in a romance; so long as it makes the hero look good and doesn't overshadow the romance.
I finally posted my review of the Larry's. Whew what a task. I wish they made it easier to review multiple author books. Have like some template for each book laid out so you could just rate and detail each book. Anyhow it all counted as one book which is about the length of a normal book altogether but I itemized each book and a brief description. I'm such a nerd. LOL. I should get credit for ten after all that work goodness. Any how with that out of the way I can move to Coupling of the chieftain which I did start but I had some things to take care of. I worked and visited my dad in the hospital. He has COPD and his lungs filled and made it hard to breath. He went in yesterday and after my coffee (LOL) he is doing better. No he has been on O2 since yesterday and he was at a 4 now he is at 2 and after walking around his O2 level was at 97%. His DR. hadn't stopped in yet so he may have to stay one more night. He was sitting up and only coughed here and there which is a good thing bc its bringing it up from his lungs. So now that the bills are done I can kick back and read.

I don't want to make a habit of it especially n bad weather. My car is an older model but runs well I just don't want to be known as the transport person, you know. Do you think I'm over thinking it. I take my lady on Saturday to her hair appointment and my other one to her eye dr. I am done with her though tomorrow.
Mod
Sorry to hear about your dad, but it sounds like he's doing much better. Hopefully they will let him go home soon. Boy, you've had a lot of stress to deal with, haven't you? I worry about my parents too; especially with them being all the way in FL. It's not something I like to contemplate, them getting sick and me being so far away. Sigh.
I've never transported a patient before, but then again I've never done private duty; home visits, yes, but not private duty. I agree with your instincts though. It's not something I'd want to do all the time; maybe occasionally, but definitely NOT during the winter months when the weather and streets can be bad. Now that I live in the NE and actually have the different seasons I can appreciate the nastiness of the winter season. LOL
I hope you enjoy coupling. I love Adair--the cocky bastard. LOL It's really sweet when he has to rely on "his" Elisa for help during their coupling. I'm still reading SINFUL CONFESSIONS. I just past the part where she found out he didn't have any plans to marry her and he convinced her to stay for a visit. It's been slow going with the reading.
I've been cleaning all day. Finally got the upstairs all done. Tomorrow it's the downstairs bathrooms and maybe the kitchen; Wednesday it's the floors. My parents fly in on Thursday evening. They will be here until the following Saturday. The house will be overflowing with family this weekend. Oh joy! LOL
Thanks guys. My dads Aorta is enlarged and they said that might the cause of the chest aims he's had. Well know more tomorrow
Awe EB! Your dad is definitely in my prayers. :( keep us posted!!
I did some research and if an aneurysm is caught early its can be corrected by surgery. I'm sure and RF know all about this so you know it's lucky they caught it and it didn't burst. Thanks Rach
Elizabeth wrote: "I did some research and if an aneurysm is caught early its can be corrected by surgery.

It depends on your father's overall health and how big the aneurysm is concerning surgery, but I feel like they do surgery on that sort of thing all of the time. If that sucker would have burst .. OMG it doesn't even bare thinking about. I'm so glad they found it!!!!
Mod
God yes, EB! Rachel is so right...those suckers are life threatening. Few people survive if they burst. I had a childhood friend who had a brain aneurysm that ruptured. The ONLY reason he survived is because his mom found him and immediately started life support and called 911. They got to him quick. Even then it took several months for him to recover, and he was never quite the same, but still functional. Thank God!
Wow! It's great they caught your dad's. I'll keep him in my prayers!
Yes, Kate! HS was my first experience in recent memory with a TSTL hero. Usually it's the heroines who are stupid. LOL
I know it's really scary. He is relatively healthy. In fact the student dr that came in before his family dr said he was surprised after reading chart from the day before that he was sitting up. God is good. That's all I can say

LIVING LONDON is a time travel romance. The h finds a cryptic message hidden in a book after her grandmother dies. She finds herself in regency England, where she meets the H.
A TASTE OF HONEY is about a h who gets an opportunity, along with her twin sister, to have a season in London. Her mother wants her to marry a title, but the h ends up falling for her sponsor's son, a mere mister.
THE RANCHER is a western--duh, really? LOL Anyhow, sorry, it's about a h who can ride, shoot, etc. better than any man, but she's forced to find a husband to ward off losing her ranch. The H is best friends with the h's late brother. The H is wracked with guilt over the accident that killed his friend, but then discovers it's not an accident after all. He travels to the h's hometown to fulfill his promise to his friend to protect the h and he wants to flush out his friend's killers.
HIDDEN PROSPECTS is about a h who is in her late thirties. When her father marries and sends her away, the h travels to Prescott, where her only friends live, and finds love. FYI I believe this novel is a follow up to the PRESCOTT PIONEERS series. We've had at least two of those books on our freebie list. There are four books in the Prescott series.
SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY is set during the time of WWII. The h has been in love with her next door neighbor since childhood. He's now off at war and the h remains behind waiting to begin a life with him. The blurb hints that she receives correspondence that he dies. The h is devastated, but later falls in love with a soldier in her father's platoon with whom she's been exchanging letters. Here's a link to a review that lays out the plot pretty nicely.
http://smile.amazon.com/review/R2O5JJ...
LET'S MISBEHAVE is a contemporary romance. I figured most of us read CRs so I'd include a few of those on our freebie list. This book is about a h who is an actress who is suffering through some bad press, since her sleazy ex released a sex tape of the h. The H is a former rock star now politician who needs to stay out of trouble so he can secure the support of the conservatives.
BOYS OF WINTER is a box set of three contemporary romance books, CRAVE, RELEASE, and RUSH.
TEACHING THE BOSS is another CR. It's about a h who works with the H as his assistance. When his "girlfriend of the week" pushes her too far she quits and ends up working for the H's father--who happens to be his number of nemesis. The H discovers he lost without the h, who helped him build his company. In the meantime, the h finds documents that could lead to the H losing everything he's worked for. The H and h then work together to save the H's company.
Anyhow ladies, that's it for today. TTYL!
RF I stopped reading Coupling. I didn't realize I guess the length of the actually deed. I have erotica where the villain may watch unknown and that doesn't bother me but the intimacy he openly shared with an audience just bothered me. I know he was trying to make it better for her but it wasn't for me. I have been reading blue skies by CA.
Mod
Aw I'm sorry it didn't work for you! Back to CA huh? LOL
Lol this one is different. The h has been blind up until three weeks before she meets the H in a bar. Disaster hits as the H who is a smooth operator gets sloppy drunk and has his way with the h in his truck. She is a virgin and winds up pregnant and bad memories of sex. Lol. Now she is faced with losing her vision again bc of the pregnancy. It's pretty good and she is stubborn with a capital S.
Don't worry about it with coupling you giving the links helped bc after I started scanning I figured it out
Hey Rachel have you seen the cover for E K Blairs new book called Echo? That woman has the coolest cover that I have ever saw. They're not over worked but just catch your attention. Anyway I don't know what it is about bc I've only ever read her fading series but I may check it out later. My dad is coming home it's not what they thought and he's being released.

That's excellent news about your Dad, EB! I'm happy for you and your family. It was looking pretty crappy here this morning, and was very cold. This afternoon is beautiful though. Not sure what the temp is, but Lucian and I went for a run. My five year old completed 2.5 miles with a cramp in his side! I brought the jogging stroller with us, just in case he needed it; it's been several months since he last ran. But he never used it once. I even tried to encourage him to take a ride when he got the cramp; I told him he's not a professional athlete who needs to work through the pain. LOL When we got back home he said "it's getting better." Can you believe it? He's a running maniac!
Enjoy your walk!
I went 4 miles I got to get working bc in June and August I entered two different 5K's. Lol. One has obstacles and the other is a color run. A walk in my case. Lol. The wind started to pick up here which made it chillier but it was a good temp to walk on. Guess what Friday is ? I get to go see our Thor on the big screen.

LOL It sounds pretty funny! I love Chris Rock; he's a hoot! Oh another alert on COUPLING--I've finished it, finally. Anyhow, there is one point when he is performing oral for a few seconds to get things going again--LOL--when he hears giggling and recognizes the voice of a girl he's been intimate with. And yes, we are told that he'd done the same act on her in the past. Sigh! Just thought I'd give you a heads up. As for the sweetness factor, the h ends up having to help him because the crowds cheering starts to cause him to loose interest, shall we say. Then it's like the two of them competing in this event, with the clan as their competitors. LOL
Anyhow, I'm done. I'm going to read some more of SINFUL tonight and try to finish it off tomorrow. I don't think I'll get much reading done this week. I have a lot of cleaning and preparing to do for Hannah's Communion. My parents fly in Thursday evening.
