Thanks Lisa Kay - I'll definitely give it a go - hmmm, now to go and look for some books with the relevant requirements ...
Thanks for the invitation, but sadly I must decline. Snowed under, writing another book and trying to promote the six I have already on the market. Maybe some other time. Sorry.

finished my first one wasnt expecting to so quicky but some how managed to sit down and read it all in one session. Would def recommend it!! i dont usually to do romace but with a military twist i was able to relate well to it.
Books read: 1/2
I finished this book so fast (2 days) because it flowed really well and I didn't need to exert my brain that much to follow the plot. Kept me on edge towards the end, too.
still haven't chosen my next book though, it's harder than I thought!
Yummmm, that picnic basket looks likes it has some good stuff in it.
I finished my first book- Blue!
I gave it a 3 star rating. Overall while the heroine left me feeling baffled from time to time I was thouroughly entertained while I was reading it. I would say its an easy, entertaining read when your just looking for a little down time.
