So many many books I'd love to see as a movie, one that is an oldie but a goodie, Susan Napier's Wilder Shores of Love. But now I'll have to read Devil in a Dark Blue suit!! Loved Naughty Nights btw =) Robbie,

You know I think you're onto something there. See the flick *then* read the book. That could probably work for me! Antonio B...lol! You're as bad as me with GB. But, huh, no one can accuse us of not being loyal! :) Rufus Sewell...oh yes. Dark, smouldering good looks. Didn't he play Heathcliffe at one time? And Richard Armitage is just devine! North and South. Total yum! Congrats on your RT nom, Kate! Thanks for dropping by. Robbie Hey Kate! You know I think you’re onto something there. See the flick *then* read the book.

(And if I go to see a film, I try to read the book afterwards rather than before, because then I can enjoy the film and not go into the whole "enjoyed it but it wasn't as good as the book" thing.) Leading men for the Presents Studio - well, hey, I have to say Antonio Banderas would work as any of the Spaniards or Argentinians. (I've mentally cast him as my Italians as well...) And I think Rufus Sewell and Richard Armitage would work pretty well, too. (Not sure if you got the latest BBC Robin Hood or not - if you didn't, prod me and I'll send you links to things on YouTube that will inspire yoU!)

And he's darn sexy to boot! So yes, I'd say my husband is very special. :-D Wonderful you feel the same about yours! :-) It takes a very special man to run his own business and then come home and change diapers, and even cook sometimes, while his wife writes like a man fiend.

Mine too. When I'm really not certain how my hero in a story should act, or what he should say, I ask my dh. More often than not, I go with his suggestion. His six-pack isn't what it used to be, but then neither is mine! Robbie Maisey, your husband must be pretty special. Mine too.

Thanks for dropping in :) I had a lot of fun writing that scene, lol. I can just picture the look on everyone's face and the hush that fell over the room. Consuming Passions was terrific! Watch out for that doctor. I'm so glad that woman found happiness, but not in the way I expected. And another vote for the mighty Sandra Marton!! Robbie Hey Maxine!

A big tick to all those authors, and I'm keeping notes on the ones I haven't read. There's nothing like a great recommendation :) Hope you enjoy my Devil! Robbie Lidia, great to see you here! A big tick to all those authors, and I’m keeping notes on the ones I haven’t read. There’s nothing like a great recommendation :)
