But I have to tell everyone that a great many libraries purchased the hardcover edition. I credit this to the endorsement of Jayne Ann Krentz/Amanda Quick. Also, Mary Balogh was wonderful. She read the novel for me before the original edit from Five Star/Gale and made valuable suggestions which I incorporated.Jacqueline Seewaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09177500620940251009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169078819691058551.post-67433673558171572222014-06-15T12:36:32.991-04:002014-06-15T12:36:32.991-04:00Thank you, Maggie.

My fingers would lingeringly trail the covers of each book, knowing an adventure awaited inside on the pages. Sometimes the hardest part about going to the library was having to make selections to take home. All the books sounded wonderful!<br /><br />As a grown up (well, mostly a grown up!), I have to stay I still have the same reverence for books, and for good authors. I've read many of Jacquie's books and I highly recommend them. I love that she blends genres!Maggie Toussainthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12011893139722870283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169078819691058551.post-32735683763727776682014-06-15T08:20:16.054-04:002014-06-15T08:20:16.054-04:00Jacquie: Another great blog!
