I especially liked that they said grace before the meal and the head boss thanked the spouses for keeping the home fire burning because he said their men wouldn't be such good employees if it wasn't for the women waiting at home. :D<br /><br />This company is soooo different than the raunchy one hubby worked for a couple years ago.

It's like they don't understand what passion is so they throw some violence in because it's high-strung emotion and they think that must be it. <br /><br />Thanks for popping in. And yes, I'm enjoying my weekend so far.

Her latest series, Charles Towne Belles is just as good! <br /><br />My favorite pirate movie is Pirates of the Caribbean!

IOW Did I have half a chance to sell what I'm writing? When I found M.L. Tyndall, I not only breathed a sigh of relief but felt encouraged that they were publishing a broad spectrum of romantic fiction. <br /><br Debra E.

Let's face it, the Bible is a pretty edgy book. It draws sharp lines between good and evil, but shows the true nature and depravity of mankind and is brutally honest.<br /><br />My favorite Swashbuckler to date is Blue Enchantress Dina Sleimanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05214446103057806111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502152359497137754.post-62803908511906786282009-11-28T05:11:23.327-05:002009-11-28T05:11:23.327-05:00Good Morning Anita Mae and Everyone.
