Same book box for NC

Release planned for Tuesday, January 06, 2004 at U.S. Mail in Lawton, Oklahoma USA.

Part of Harlequin/Silhouette book box bound for North Carolina.

Happily received this book from my postie this afternoon. Thanks! Shall read, journal and release.

When I finish my current read, The Australian Heiress by Margaret Way, c. 1997, I will start this one. -- July 25, 2004

I finished this one last night. Good read.

Some fun/insightful/poetical quotes from the book:

"I mentioned to her that you were back in town, Mary Elizabeth."
She froze and finally managed to say, "I wish you hadn't done that, Granddad."
"You can't avoid her forever, you know."
"I'm not avoiding her," she said quickly. "I-I'm just waiting, that's all."
"Waiting for what? The moon to turn blue? Listen to me, girl, you get your pretty backside down to the house this morning or you'll have to answer to me!" p98
[comment: I have been in the same boat as Mary Elizabeth. Trying to put it off, and off..]

"I can see why you don't like to be compared to her," he said softly. "She didn't have your heart."
The remark buoyed Liza. She felt like an autumn leaf suddenly launched from a tree branch. At last someone understood." p143

RELEASE NOTES:

On the trolley.
