This one is a historical romance set in the England in well close to Victorian times. You have a child who was ripped away from his mother, and the child blamed his mother for most of this life until enter our heroine. Can she make him see what he has been avoiding his whole life? Well, she can if he get thrown from his horse and forgets who he is. Well maybe, but what happens when he remembers?

This is a good one. It was loaned to me by a friend, and I was not disappointed it was a very good read. It was fast too, once I started I really did not want to put it down

Ok, I liked this one. I have really been trying to read this series from beginning to end, so I do not miss anything and everything falls into place. However the local Library and I are not seeing eye to eye. Clearly Polly is not on staff there . Anyway, the one find the lovable Mr Q still in Pickax and celebrating the rebuilding of the hotel which got bombed (dunno didn't read that one yet UGH).  There is a high flyer who comes to down who gets himself killed. Question is it a local or from someone Down Below. It has a few turns in it, but as always Mrs. Lilian is writing amazingly.Her books are entertaining, keep you thinking, and just generally make me smile. I am hoping that Kojo and YumYum are just as happy in the Condo in the winter as they are in the Barn in the spring and summer.

Ok, I read this one fast, for good reason it was very good. I found the twists and turns appealing and very believable. I have to say if you pay attention you know what's coming before it's revealed and it will make you smile. It ended abruptly, however I started this series it appears in the beginning (I hate that!) but, I was not aware it was a series till I started reading and then again once I did start reading it I could not put it down! LOL and of course, it is a historical romance. I myself don't mind spoilers however most people do so i'm not posting any details really about the book other than it's about a woman who wants to see the world and find a family, her family and ends up finding a lot more in the bargain.

This is a historical romance novel. I have been reading a lot of these over the past year. This involves a young lady who is rescued by a man wanting a caregiver for his children. She as usual didn't know what she was getting into until she got there. However she used it to her advantage and ended up falling for the man who "rescued" her. She ended up finding out more about the man than she though possible and found that there might be some depth to the male gender.

1. I would rather drive than be driven.. That doesn't make me a control freak

2. I would rather lead than trust someone to get me there ... That still doesn't make me a control freak

3. When I am not in control I feel as if life will fly apart..... err umm humm moving on

4. I feel I can control what happens around me with a little bit of planning and hard work. ..umm...

5. If something unexpected happens I try and analyze how it happened so it won't happen again.. ugh...

Okay, so I AM a control freak! Well, I suppose anyone who has had trauma in their lifetime has gone under the assumption to prevent it in the future. And, maybe there are some without trauma who do the same thing. I can only speak for me. I am a control freak, I have been a control freak for a very long time. I am learning to trust and give up that control, but GEEZ it's hard to do it. To let go and let someone else have control, over me.. wow... it's just something that is so hard for me. I am doing it though

     Okay, I work nights and last night I managed to go to bed about 11 and get up at 5am. So, I made breakfast and played WOW, did some facebook stuff and then well just pittered. It seems the better half moved wrong and pinched a nerve in his back >.< LE OUCH. So, he was milling around. It was about 1130 and I decided to lay down and take a nap cause I had to go to the dentist >.<! Another LE OUCH, I woke up and had 10 minutes to get there ( I cannot stand being late ;} ). So, five fillings later :{!!! I come home and the hubby is worse it's OFF to the Chiropractor  (in rush hour traffic no less)! And, 30 minutes and a few bucks later he is feeling kinda better, my mouth is slowly un numbing and coming home ect and so on. I'm just beat. Yup I'm whining and I'm gonna whine till in the morning then i'll stop. Got my oldest making me pan chocolate chip cookies and so on :}. So, thanks for listening to me whine I appreciate the ear XD

     i have to say that life has taught me some wonderful lessons but the most valuable lesson I have ever learned is to go on. To not only get up and brush myself off but to take that step. It has not been easy. I thought when I was little things were difficult, and granted they were, however Life and God have shown me how disastrous life can be. He has also used each instance to help me learn to carry on and be a survivor. Not, to dwell too much. To remember what I went though so I would remember the lesson but, to be able to let go just enough so I can move on.

    Some people in my life would not agree that I have moved on. Some think I squarely root myself in the past. That is not the case. I have moments that the past hits me and I dwell on it. I consider that mourning. You can mourn something your whole life but not be controlled by it. I mourn then I take a deep breath and put it away until it surfaces again. I don't know if this is a defense mechanism but I believe it is. I believe that it is my way of coping with tragedy in my life.

     I have to say while some events have been tragic some have been wonderful. I am a very lucky woman. VERY lucky! I thank God for all he has given me.

    How can I say both? It seems to contradict itself doesn't it? Well, in some ways it does in others, it doesn't you have to have heartache to know what love is, you have to have failure before you can taste success. You have to have one side of the coin to learn how valuable the other is. The point is to never forget either. To look at the lessons then cherish the blessings.

I still say if i dwell ed on it all i would be mad

September issues are WHY I buy magazines, the ads the articles, AH it makes a woman all giggly!

All the new things coming out, all the trends starting to come back in style YIPEE!!

Ok, so maybe I am just a little too into this but so what, everyone has to have something and I happen to love looking at fashion. My own style runs tailored and 80's mix, which makes everything just so much fun to try and put together.

I have finished reading some of my magazines only to find my mailbox suttfed full with MORE! And, I have thanked my mailman profussley for on time delivery

Don't you just LOVE the September issues?

    I haven't thought of a title for this post yet. But, clearly when you read it, there shall be one What is driving this post is a facebook post I saw recenty that said post this if you have a freind you don't talk to often but you can pick right up where you left off... you know the one. It has me thinking that yes, I have several people that I can say this about. They know that I pray for them and think about them all the time even if I don't speak to them. See, I am not a very outspoken person and it takes a lot to get to get me to speak my mind. I either have to be very comfortable or really pissed off. And, I don't get pissed that often. And, I am rarely comfortable. I have had this blog since January, and I am just now starting to open up. :-/.

     It is very hard for me to speak my mind. On the one hand I feel like I am whining too much and on the other I think it's better left unsaid. I think though I can start taking baby steps to opening my mouth, and letting how I really feel flow. And, to all those people that are my friends but I just don't talk to. Trust me I do read posts and I do look a lot, cause I like to know if your okay, and still breathing. And, I'm going to try and repay the favor.

I loved this book. It is set in England in the Victorian era. It has a bit of everything. Mystery, a few turns, some steamy love scenes and a few morals along the way. Madeline the heroine decided she needs a man to catch a man. It works quite well for her. I do not want to spoil anything but if you like historical romance books you would want to put this one on your list or reread it in the future if you have all ready
