I had a long workday (yes, I still have a day job, but at least it's at a bookstore!) and then had to pick up my son from the airport for our party. But I feel terrible, because here you all are commenting and you must thing I've abandoned you!

As the "mom" of two dogs, I know that bewildered look well! LOL!<br /><br />I like both a strong heroine and hero. I want them to be well matched in their strengths but I also want each to be vulnerable to the other.

I ...Congratulations on your debut novel, Joanne! <br /><br />I like a great hero over a strong heroine; however, I like my heroines to be spunky and cute and intelligent. <br /><br />(Maybe that all means strong, but when I hear or see "strong" it gives me a negative vibe.)
