Can't come - don't belong. But, I will be sending good thoughts your way!

I just read the DearAuthor.com review for Butterfly Tatto. Wow! Sounds like an amazing read.

Excerpted review quotes below:
( http://dearauthor.com/wordpress/2009/04/20/review-butterfly-tattoo-by-deirdre-knight/ )

"I’ve thought a lot about this book since I read the last chapter. I felt like I knew these people who live out in Southern California. They were as real to me as my neighbors and I knew them more intimately than some of my closest friends. My throat even feels a little tight as I write out this review because I keep recycling some of the lines and moments of the story in my head."

"Let me state the obvious. I’m a fairly traditional romance reader. I’m not adventurous like Jayne. It’s hard for me to move outside my comfort zone . But this is a rare and different gem. It is a story I’ll treasure and remember. I hope that even if it does not net you significant financial rewards that you’ll keep writing these stories. There is an audience for it. I know there is."

Wonderful work, Deidre!

Thanks, Karin! We'll catch up soon. :) And, SoulIlumination, thanks for posting that excerpt from the Dear Author review!! I love that book (Butterfly Tattoo) so very much. Thanks for plugging it. hugs!

I haven't seen 27 Dresses yet, but now I think I might rent it this weekend :)!! Let's see... I think one of my fave romantic scenes of all-time was when Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes's Romeo & Juliet characters spy each other through the aquarium. In the background Desiree sings "Kissing You." Ah...the memories.

Jia, it's really fun and very romantic (to me!) And oh my, watching that clip again just then, "the wind and the waterfall..." I mean who HASNT sung some made up lyric to that song??
D

I totally used to think she had "electric boobs". Nobody bothered to correct me either.

thanks everyone. lol.

In Pretty Woman where Julia Roberts' character gets caught kissing the sleeping Richard Gere... I think the kissing scene that follows is a great romantic moment.

On the other end of the spectrum, the kiss where Ennis threw Jack against the wall in Brokeback Mountain, was the hottest kiss ever!

Gwen, it's quite possible that I used to think it was electric boobs. Then again, I'm the one who never figured out that "lines on the mirror, lines on her face" in LIFE IN THE FAST LANE referred to coke. It's like my mind keeps filling in what it thought at ten! :)

And, oh yeah, Shayla. The Jack/Ennis kiss is one of the most passionate moments in any movie. Thanks for reminding me. :) Might need to highlight that one, and SO agree about PRETTY WOMAN which is probably #1 fave romantic movie moment of all time for me. :)

I have never seen this movie either....

Loved 27 Dresses!

I'd have to say that Love Actually is one of my favorite romantic movies of all time. There are so many scenes in it that are noteworthy (IMO). Among them the couples featured are the porn stand-ins. They chat it up while shotting and fall in love so sweetly. I keep wanting to share this movie with my daughter until I remember the, ahem, "action scenes". We'll have to wait a couple of years for that, lol.

Oh my gosh I LOVE this movie! I've been a James Marsden fan forever and was SO happy that he finally got a romantic lead role. (I was rooting for him in The Notebook.)

It's hard to pick my favorite romance movie but this is on the top of the lists.

On a side note, James Marsden was in a movie called "Interstate 60". If you haven't seen it, rent it or buy it or find it someway, it's really worth it. Great all around movie.

Loved the post Deirdre! :) Thanks!

That was the BEST party of the whole conference, bar none.

Wow, that looked like so much fun!!! With all those models, I don't know that I would have waited for the music to stop before I jumped in a lap.... :-)

Hi Deidre!! I was one of the lucky gals who got to play Spartan Musical Chairs. I can vouch first hand that it was A LOT of fun!

Deidre, I just want to say that I had a blast at RT and it was so nice meeting you. I played bunko with you and I won the raffle at your midnight party. I just want to say thank you so much for the wonderful gift. Your party was one of my "highlights" at RT!

Hey, Jill! I had such fun playing Bunco with you, and then when you won the raffle, that was just too cool and fun!! Glad you had a blast and loved meeting you!
