New Website

Did you notice it? Isn’t it gorgeous? Well, yes, I may be slightly biased, but I am absolutely thrilled with the work that Jax Cassidy did on my website. She perfectly captured what I wanted. And she’s a damn fine author too, so go check her out!

I have a lot going on this summer, so I’m not sure my blogging is going to be back to any regular pattern, but you never know. I hope that you will still pop by occasionally. You can always find me on Twitter and, of course, I’m always happy to receive emails.

This Corn is an Angel

Yes, very random title, but I was wanting to lighten the mood. The title is a line from the movie Dan in Real Life. It made me laugh for quiet a while. Well that and this one…
Marie: “He said if I could forgive him his past, he’d forgive mine.” (this is paraphrased since I can’t remember exact wording).
Dan: “Well that was stupid.”

Ahhh, love. I need to watch this movie again, since I was slightly distracted the first time (by a child who wouldn’t go to sleep), but I found it a little slow moving. Plus, I felt sorry for his brother for most of the movie and I’m not sure that’s how they intended it. Or maybe they did. I thought it was more Romantic Comedy and while there is romance and comedy, the situation wasn’t nearly as hilarious as the clips lead you to believe.

There are a lot of awkward moments. Truthfully, it’s an awkward situation. Falling for your brother’s girlfriend and then trying to make it work? Add three young girls to the mix and that’s a lot of angst. But it felt fairly realistic to me, which is why I think it was awkward. Maybe that was the intention.

People give romance novels a bad rap about how fast the hero and heroine fall in love, but this guy fell in love over coffee! That’s fast – of course if he fell in love with the coffee, then I’d completely understand.
