The Perfect Hope

-
I had mentioned before that i was reading the Inn BoonsBoro Trilogy by Nora Roberts. Yesterday i stayed in bed and finished the last book. It was so good and i am very sad that it is over now. 
The Perfect Hope is a story about the growing relationship between the Inn Keeper (named Hope) and the last available Montegomery brother, Ryder. Hope is very strong willed, and came to be in the Inn Keeper after she found he last boyfriend cheating on her. She only found out he was cheating because he announced his engagement to another woman. So she moved up to Boonsboro to be with her closest friend, and met another girlfriend along the way. Ryder is the ruff and tough, doesnt do well with feelings, makes fun of this brothers for being in relationships type of guy. He even damed his dog DA (short for dumb ass). Hope and Ryder pretty much hate each other from the beginning. The first time to change things is when the Inn's hopelessy romantic ghost named lizzie locks the two of them in a room together, and the only way out is for the two of them to kiss. They still hate each other after this, but it presents more openings for kissing to happen. Hatred turns into friends, which turns into like, which turns into sex, and eventually turns into a proposal. 
As the book goes on, other relationships develop more. Take Claire and Beckett from the first book, now they are married and expecting twins! Avery and Owen are engaged, planning a wedding and in the end get married. 
With a lot of research and some encounters with ghost lizzy, her long lost love has been found and the two have been brought back together. 
The book is not completely mushy gushy, there are parts where you will get upset with the characters, and want to be there in person to smack them up side the head, which of course adds a little bit of suspense. 
I love this book, and i love the way that Nora Roberts writes. My next book i am taking a little break though, only because on my winter bucket list i have: read a christmas novel. So i am going to complete that. But once i am done, i will make my way back to Nora Roberts. Stay tuned!!

Happy New Years

Every year people make all kinds of resolutions... and typically people drop them by the second week in january, or if they are lucky, they can hold on until february. I had seen online the other day someones resolution was for people to start loving who they were and to accept themselves and to stop trying to always change.  NOW, i love that resolution and i hope people are able to accept who they are, except in my case i am not healthy, and not only do i want to become healthy, but i am stretching for a much larger goal, and i hope that i can accomplish it! Every year we always see the magazines post online and publish in their magazines people who are now half their size, and the before and after pictures. I want to be one of those people. I want to work and push hard to become someone who is proud for becoming healthy and fit.  I do have something as motivation, and that would be my cruise that is next year. I DO NOT want to look the way i currently am on the cruise, nor do

Safe Haven

 **SPOILER ALERT** I typically do not like to read the books that get turned into movies because i will usually end up hating the book or the movie. However, when i was up at bowling i got talking to one of the other girlfriends who hang out up there and we got talking about Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks. She suggested to read it, and she even gave me her copy of the book.  Ive had it for a few months now, and still didnt read it. I started about a month ago, and for the first few chapters, the book followed the movie, so i could almost see the movie playing in my head as i read. So i put the book down for a while. Just this past week i picked it back up again, and i finished it within days. The story is different.  In the movie Alex finds out about Katie's past because of the "wanted" poster up with her picture, however it really plays more into him finding out and its more a gradual thing in the book. It also shows her relationship with Jo more than in the movie,

Visit a Corn Maze  On 10/23/14 Mark and I went to a corn maze before Michael's football game. It was shaped like a vikings hat, and it was actually really fun. I had been to one when i was little and i had always wanted to go back to one. I was finally glad that i found one that was affordable! Last year all the corn mazes i had found cost about $30 or more. This one was $7! Perfect and i can not wait to go again next year.  Visit a Fall Festival  On 10/25/14 the town of Essex, CT held their annual pumpkin festival. I had been many years prior when i was babysitting someone, and i loved it! This year i made sure to look up the date, and when Mark got out of work we drive 30 minutes. The festival was fun! They had all the pumpkins that were carved and lit up. They had a band playing music and food and hot chocolate. It was a nice little festival to walk around together with my boy.  Carve Pumpkins  As you know we had bought pumpkins a few weeks ago,
