Since I can remember, I've always had my nose firmly planted in a book. Reading is my first love, and I've been an avid reader of romances in particular since I was around thirteen years of age. Of course, my mother had no idea what I was reading. I think she would've had fits if she'd found out. But, I realized then that I truly love romance. Whether it's in movies, television shows or books, that's the common thread that runs through all my favorites.
