A large part of my existence involves daydreaming--whether I'm supposed to be paying attention to something else or not, and that's how it's always been. I'm blessed that now I get to call my attention-deficit rudeness something else: Working :) I live with my family and a passel of critters in rural southern Ohio, in the rolling foothills of the Appalachian mountains, on a cleared spot of land plopped in the middle of national forest. Everywhere I look it's either hills with trees or fields with cows. If you had a view like that, you'd spend lots of time watching the people inside your head too. I'm lying--I do that--the area is beautiful, the air is clean and fresh if you count out those gassy cows, and the people are nice. Plus, the Great Serpent Mound is within easy driving distance if I ever feel the need to visit mysterious places--and really, who doesn't feel that need sometimes? When not cow watching, mysterious place visiting, or writing, I love to read, watch movies, make stuff with my hands, and geek-out over documentaries. Any documentary. Even the ones with subjects I have absolutely no desire to learn about prior to discovering there is a documentary about it... I think it must be some kind of Geeky Syndrome which I shall one day try to have diagnosed and named after me. I also like to learn various antiquated(yet awesome) skills. In case of Zombiepocalypse, I'll still have bread, cheese, jam, lacy under-things(I love tatting!), granulated sugar, fluffy marshmallows and I'll always have something new to read. Carbs 1 -- Zombies 0!

The emotions in this one hit me in the pit of my stomach from page one. I was immediately invested in the heroine and wanted her to get the HEA she deserved after such a bewildering and painful breakup with the not-talking-about-it hero. I "warmed up" to him when he made sure the heroine was warm. Sweet, angsty, redemptive story. Great read!
