How in the world do you draw a line through your book titles?
Diane, click on the link above the comment box that says (some html is ok) and scan that list. You'll see all the html codes for the allowable things on Goodreads, and the strike code is almost at the bottom.

Before reading this book I tried to imagine what Keely McCay's story was going to be. I wasn't even close. I just love Lorelei James and her characters. Keely and Jack were perfect for each other. Although, they had their share of the requisite hurdles (god forbid love just ever be easy), it wasn't too over the top. I love a strong sexy man and even though Jack was proud to not be a cowboy I felt he still possessed the spirit of one.
Another homerun. One of my favorites of the series.
This is not my favorite Queen Betsy book, but I still loved it. It was a nice, quick read and still had her quick witt and laugh out loud one liners. I just felt it was a little rushed in some parts. Still overall very pleased and as always I am a huge fan. Long live Queen Betsy and Mary Janice!
I really love these books. They are such nice, quick reads that just make me laugh.
***** This kept me up all night thinking. Wow! I'm not sure if I liked it or not, but I gave it 5 stars because it was written well, the story was good and really got to me. It really made me question myself and I don't know that I could be so selfless. Actually, I am pretty sure I couldn't be that selfless. So sad, yet so sweet! I'm not sure that it ended the way I wanted it to. I take it back..I am positive it didn't end the way I wanted it to, but it ended the way it should have (I guess). Nicholas Sparks is an amazing story teller. 
*** I'm still not sure what to think of this series. I like most of the characters and the stories aren't half bad. It just seems to be the flow of the book that gets me. I am hoping once Stephanie and Morelli get together maybe it will get a little better. I haven't ruled the series out completely, yet.
