And gosh, to me, all he does is make me love him more!! We are all SO different except that we ALL love romance, so how fun is that??? Thanks for coming by, Renee. :)<br /><br />DAWN ... that blesses me SO much because the only cover I really and truly loved A LOT was APMP. And I have cute story about the cover model for Faith O'Connor. She is actually a sweet Catholic gal named Mary who is VERY Irish and who contacted me after the book came out. I told her back then that I bet the book would sell like hotcakes because of her and Collin on the cover. Mary's boyfriend thought that was so cute, that he started calling her hotcakes. :) Thanks for coming by and here's to a win!!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />JulieJulie Lessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406395645316139292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-39891146248509459122012-02-15T22:34:24.271-05:002012-02-15T22:34:24.271-05:00Julie, one of the things I love about your books a...Julie, one of the things I love about your books are the covers. In fact my buying Passion Most Pure was on an impulse while at Lifeway. I saw the cover (the girl looks sorta like Megan Follows of the Anne of Green Gables movies and the man looks like a younger Antonio Banderas) and bought it and loved it! I am so looking forward to reading this one. I'd love to win a copy.<br /><br />dawn(dot)janis(at)gmail(dot)comDawn Janishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08564326324567557173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-64499483471901002532012-02-15T22:21:16.661-05:002012-02-15T22:21:16.661-05:00LOL you know that I'm one of those gals who ha...LOL you know that I'm one of those gals who has thrown your books against the wall because your characters can be soooo darn frustrating!

I may be old, but I sure don't want to look it!!<br /><br />KIM, being here on your day was a TOTAL pleasure, my friend, so THANK YOU for your wonderful review and kind encouragement. Hope to return the favor some day when you are published.<br /><br />CARRIE, it is SO much fun being on your blog, girlfriend because Diana is right -- it IS like a great big party and SOOOO encouraging to everyone from me to anybody comes by. I look forward to seeing you on Saturday!!<br /><br />SUSAN!!! I just read Carrie's amazing review of your book on Amazon and I am STOKED!! OMG ...
