Sometimes I get annoyed with stuff that nobody else notices so I am glad to see that there is agreement on the "heifer" issue. Totally understandable that you would go for Cole. I notice that you like the flirty ones ;-) I think I will wait for reviews before reading Micah's book. I thought I would be okay if it was just menage and sex toys but now I see that Micah is into the SM of BDSM and that freaks me out. I really, really dont like it when blood starts appearing in my smut. (One of the many reasons why vampire stories dont do it for me.) Elyssa -

The scene with Julie seeing Serena and Damon. Just O_o. I have some thoughts about that one, too. The heifer comment annoyed me. A lot. Found Cole to be very sexy. Like him the most. Have really no desire for Connor's story. Micah . . . ehhhh, I think that's going to be more hardcore BDSM than Damon, and I'm thinking that I'll be wanting a chastity belt afterwards. But since you got me hooked on the crack known as Maya Banks, I'll be reading each one. Damn you, Seton, damn you. lol. :) Agree with it all.

Oh well, the necklace situation is on indefinite hiatus since I was a naughty girl and just blew my monthly wad on another Hermes cuff. http://coulditbeseton.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/cdc-thalassa.jpg I've been looking for a blue one for 3 yrs so couldnt pass it up. The stones in Necklace C, I think the topaz beads are like one and a half inch long, just to give you an idea. Hope Tarr is a member of the NYC Chapter of RWA and hosts those Lady Jane Salons first Monday of the month. I keep meaning to go. Korto’s site never got back to me.

Reminds me of the time I ordered some science fiction romance based on an online review and it turned out to be wall-to-wall uber-kinky gay sex, which was not remotely what I was expecting. I have always wanted to find that review again, so I could figure out which one of us had been on crack.

You're paying good money to get what you want. I say keep looking. I hope that the designer gets back to you. Hopefully they're responsive to your desires and are willing to alter the necklaces. Necklace B is beautiful. I love the way the red highlights the warm tones in the cross. Even though it took a year to gather the materials, it was worth it. It looks perfect and lovely. I like Necklace C for the same reasons. The overall sepia tone of the piece is understate and subtly beautiful. How large are the stones to be so heavy? I hope your friends marriage is going well. Reality TV always seems to destroy marriages and expose the fault lines in relationships. It never seems to strengthen them. Her daughter is beautiful though. And I hate that the producers of the show always show the worst parts of the ladies. They all seem very shallow and vain, but I know that's not what they are. There are more positive qualities to them, but they rarely come through. I picked up Enslaved from Hope Tarr the other day. I thought of you, knew you read it, and decided to do the same.

I'll email you. I think technically I can wear the green in #2 but I have a lot of green in my skintone and hate emphasizing it, which is why I am hesitating. If it was more yellow-green or neon, I would be happier about it. It's also the most expensive one and at a price point where I feel I should absolutely love it for the price, KWIM? Mel,
