And she also has a knack for blessing the socks off of her friends by being so incredibly supportive!! She's done so much for me in terms of LR.

And we even get a double blessing with comments by Casey AND Rel:)<br /><br />Like Ian and others said, this is such a fantastic idea and I look forward to other heroes and their stories. It really helps taking a closer look at what makes a hero tick. So often much of the story is untold and remains locked in a writer's head which makes this sort of format so inviting. <br /><br />Thanks to everyone for the heartfelt comments. They make the publishing road much sweeter. I hope you like my upcoming hero in Love's Awakening:) Galleys were turned in yesterday...<br /><br />Thanks so much for your time and the heart and thought behind this post.

Love's Reckoning is one of the BEST books I have ever read in the CBA and one of my TOP-TOP favorites ever, so I am in total agreement on Silas in every way. Laura knows how to write a hero like few others, so much so that Love's Reckoning is one of the VERY few books I intend to reread over and over.<br /><br />GREAT blog today, ladies!!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />JulieJulie Lessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406395645316139292noreply@blogger.com
