You are Milk Chocolate

A total dreamer, you spend most of your time with your head in the clouds.
You often think of the future, and you are always working toward your ideal life.
Also nostalgic, you rarely forget a meaningful moment... even those from long ago.

Book # 12 -- Wild, Wicked and Wanton




Three friends...three secret desires...three chances to make it all come true.

They're inseparable best friends who delight in sharing their wildest secrets and dares. But their latest bet is the boldest one of all: each must sleep with whomever the other two have chosen for her. And come back with every juicy detail...

WILD
Abby married the town bad boy. And he lived up to his reputation, bedding any woman who let her guard down. She swore off men for good, but never counted on a pair of sexy veterinarians who are fulfilling a desire of their own.

WICKED
Blaire is the town heartbreaker. Afraid to commit, she's broken off three engagements. Yet there's one man she never had the courage to bed. The one man she really loved. But now, the decision is out her hands.

WANTON
Callie is the sensible one....but beneath it all she's a true romantic, with the broken heart to prove it. Now her long-dormant fantasies may be getting a workout. A new man enters her life and everything about him is irresistible.


The Book Geek Says: Jaci's Summer Heat was the first erotic romance I ever read way back in 2005. And while I like her demons, I'm glad she's writing sexy and ultra-steamy once again. You cannot go wrong with Wild, Wicked and Wanton -- it's h-o-t!!

Book #13 -- Gentle's Holler

The sixties may have come to other parts of North Carolina, but with Mama pregnant again, Daddy struggling to find work, and nine siblings underfoot, nobody in the holler has much time for modern-day notions. Especially not twelve-year-old Livy Two, aspiring songwriter and self-appointed guardian of little sister Gentle, whose eyes “don’t work so good yet.” Even after a doctor confirms her fears, Livy Two is determined to make the best of Gentle’s situation and sets out to transform the family’s scrappy dachshund into a genuine Seeing Eye dog. But when tragedy strikes, can Livy Two continue to stay strong for her family?


The Book Geek Says: I saw a review of Gentle's Holler posted on LiveJournal, and I knew I had to read it. Certainly worth the couple of hours I spent reading. There's not a bad word I can say about this book. Go read it -- now!!

I'm feeling a bit like Oscar the Grouch today. Don't you hate it when that happens?

Your 1996 Theme Song Is: Breakfast at Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something

And I said "What about Breakfast at Tiffany's?"
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think, we both kinda liked it."
And I said, "Well, that's the one thing we've got."

Vacation is GREAT!

My husband and I went away for our anniversary over the weekend. Technically speaking, my last vacation was 2 years ago -- we went to the Outer Banks. I've been off from work for other things, but I've always had to go back either later that day or the following day.

We went to Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown. Yes, I *am* a geek. Thanks for asking!! For our honeymoon, I wanted to drive the River Road from New Orleans to Baton Rouge and tour plantations. We went to Panama City Beach instead.

We had a good time in Williamsburg. It's nice to get away for a few days. Though if you saw my desk and my e-mail inbox(es), you'd wonder if the time off was worth it.

I'm already looking forward to my next vacation -- Walt Disney World, 2009. Bring on those teacups!!!
