Hope
We all need hope. I find in the world of today I feel as if a lot of people lack hope. Hope in being happy, hope in finding someone special, hope that your dreams will come true. Hope is an extremely important thing to have because without hope we become negative in the world we are in. Don’t stop hoping. Hope can help bring positivity, bring good things into your life. Hope sends out good vibes out to the world so good things can come to you. Hope is one of the most powerful things a person can possess. Never let anyone take away your hope because it can change…

Forgiveness
When is it ok to not forgive? Well in my mind it is never ok but I also have this romantic idea that when a partner does something wrong they will come to the other and beg for forgiveness. Yet this is not reality. People do not always ask for forgiveness or even say sorry anymore when they have done something wrong. Instead many of us blame our wrongs on someone or something else. But I would still say to forgive even when no one else knows that you have because it makes you into a better person and you will grow as a person. But forgiveness also does not…

Take my breath away
First, I would like to apologize for the past couple of weeks I have not posted a blog. Not because I did not want to but because I had computer issues. Because of this, I have not posted. Now I am back and will continue to post my blogs on Mondays, although it will be on Monday night instead of in the morning. So, I hope that you keep enjoying all that I write. Have you ever had that feeling where when you meet someone, they take your breath away? I cannot say that I have experienced that feeling but I do know that in the romance world, we use…

Life
Life is full of good moments and bad, we will always come across both. What is important is not the good and bad moments but how we act in those moments. Life is too short to live in negativity, so looking at each moment with a positive view is important. And with love, this is always a key component. We can enjoy those around us and see the love in each situation, or we can think of only the bad, or what is annoying or frustrating us. In the end your perspective on each moment makes or breaks the moment. So think about the positive, think about what’s important. Don’t…

It’s the New Year
It is 2023 now, and we are off to a new year. Makes me wonder about our wishes and dreams for the following year. I have made some for this next year, as I am sure many of you have too. A new year can bring new beginnings and further the good things in life. Now how does this work with love and relationships? Well, a new year means you can start anew in a relationship or maybe even start going out and see what is out there for you. A new year can also mean making deeper connections with those you love. Finding a sweet spot in your relationship…

Halloween
Last week I forgot my blob, not because I did not wish to do it, but because of Halloween and my children being quite excited and having so much to do. So I apologize for skipping a blog. To think about it, Halloween is not really a holiday that I care for too much because it is all about scaring people. And I am all about love. However, in even the worst moments, I can see that there can be some fun and romance in it. And with this in mind, I can think up one scenario that can make a very romantic setting. That is when two people meet…

The Moment
When it comes to romance, one of the best moments in any romance novel is that moment of the declaration of love. Whether it be offhandedly said or said in a rage or if it was planned in a romantic setting, that moment is one of the reasons I know I read romance novels and write them. I love coming up with unique and exciting yet realistic ways for the moment to happen in a book. Although in real life, sometimes it happens on the spur of the moment. In life that moment is a huge moment between two people. And sometimes it comes out in ways that make it…

Sharing the season of fall
I love the fall. I find it very inspiring in my writing. Because we can do so many things in the fall. I love this fall season, the holidays, and the spices. The air is crisp, and fun outdoor activities, like apple picking, comes to mind. The smells of everyone cooking all the fall foods. I love the fall. So much to this time of year, as leaves turn colors and we end an old year. This is the time of year to see the beauty that the world has to offer to us. This is the time to enjoy what we have, to look at what the year has…

It’s Fall
As I look outside today, I see the beauty of the fall season. I love the fall and how romantic it can be to walk under colorful trees. All the bright reds, yellows, oranges, the smells and spices of this time of year. Knowing that Halloween and Christmas are on their way. For me, this is my favorite season and the most romantic time of year. Where it is not too cold outside for walks and outside activities. Yet chilly enough at night to want to cuddle up against your love with hot cocoa and a blanket. Just taking a moment Where I live, we celebrate Thanksgiving. As much as…
