Bed of Roses

 Reading the 2nd out of the 4 books in the Bride Quartet series by Nora Roberts, it is nothing short of what I expected. 

4 best friends own their own business.  Emma has always loved romance.  To her, romance made every woman beautiful, and every man a prince.  She dates a lot, but hasn't found her mr. right. When long-time friend Jake Cooke shows interest in Emma, she does what she always does when things get serious, she runs.  Can she figure out what she wants and be able to really love a man who loves her? 

This is a good, quick read.  It is predictable all the way through, but still a good read. 

New Year's Resolutions - 2014!!!!

Well, it's 2014. Another new year, and another time for resolutions and goals.

I have decided not to make resolutions, because making them is setting myself up to failure. I have however, decided to change some things in my life and improve in many ways. That’s not the same thing as a resolution, even if it did make this decision on Jan 1… right?  Some things I am improving in my life:

Read 18 books
 Learn to say NO
Use less electronics
No facebooking in the evenings (more time with family)
No stalking (checking out useless sluts on social media sites just to get myself worked up)
Volunteer with C.A.S.A.
Stay POSITIVE
Leave work at work
Learn Spanish

I've heard setting resolutions is a way to set yourself up for failure... Probably right.  but we'll see.

CIAO!

Vision in White

Have I mentioned before that I absolutely LOVE love Nora Roberts’ sweet love stories?  Vision in White is nothing short of what I expected.  

4 best friends own their own wedding venue. They handle everything from the location, coordination, flowers, cake, and photography.  Macenzie Elliot, the photographer of Vows, Has never known what love is from anyone other than her three best friends.  Absentee father, self-centered selfish mother, she learned to lean on and depend on her friends to show her the meaning of love.  When Carter accidently stumbles into her workspace, she is in for a whirlwind.  She learns how to be loved, how to accept being loved, and maybe she can one day learn to love back.   

This has a great happy ending, as does the other books I have read from Nora.  And I have already started on the second book in the Bride Quartet series, “Bed of Roses”.
