Swept Away Valentine's Day Blog Hop

Welcome to the Swept Away Valentine's Day Blog Hop, brought to you by The Bloghop Spot.
I'd love to be Swept Away for a romantic weedend...day...hour...I'll take what I can get even if it's splitting a foot long at Subway. Any acknowledgement of the lover's holiday would be appreciated. Not a day goes by without my husband telling me he loves me - adores me. He pumps my gas for me, drives me to work in the snow and has learned not to toss my delicates in the dryer. But every year he asks me what date Valentine's Day is. It's always February 14th. Always. Which is what I tell him. Every year. A good year is when he asks before the 14th. It doesn't always go down that way.
How much importance do you put on Valentine's Day? Leave me a comment and your email address and I'll enter you in a drawing for an ecopy of Dodging Cupid (US/Int) and a goodie bag of V-Day gifts (US mailing only).

Blurb: After a string of disastrous Valentine’s Days, broken hearts and failed relationships, Jenna’s decided to spend this Valentine’s Day in the least romantic spot possible—the coin-op laundry. No flowers. No candy. No annoying couples or romance of any kind. The only glitch in her plan is the leather-clad biker in heart-print boxer shorts who walks in as her washer starts. This just might turn out to be the best Valentine’s Day Jenna’s ever had.

Don't forget to check out the other great blogspots on the hop for more great prizes!

Post Blog Hop Blues

I have sort of jumped feet first into the world of blog hops. They are fun and give me a chance to chat up readers and writers. As one blog hop ends and another has yet to begin, I'm sort of blue. Feeling lost. I should be making good use of my free time. Instead, I'm counting the minutes until the Swept Away hop starts on Thursday. Hope to see you then.

Heartbreaker Blog Hop

Welcome to my contribution to the Heartbreaker Blog Hop. A special thanks to Carrie Ann for making this hop possible.


Whether you love or hate Valentine's Day, you'll get a chuckle out of my take on the lover's holiday - Dodging Cupid. My hero, Del might come off as a bad boy heartbreaker, but he's really a heart melter. Me, I prefer to be romanced every day of the year by my hero, or at least every other day. Not necessarily with flowers and chocolates, but with compliments, accolades and oil changes, among other things. I have nothing against the once-a-year-February-14th homage to Saint Valentine, or flowers, or even chocolate. Bring it on.
 
What's your take on Valentine's Day? Love it? Hate it? Take it or leave it? Tell me how you really feel and I'll enter you into a random drawing for an e-copy of Dodging Cupid. Don't forget to leave me your email address.
