I haven't dug into them yet. Although I did open the box and take a whiff – dark chocolate mixed with pink fruity nougat. I don't even know for sure what flavor that pink stuff is, but I know it's yummy, and goes very well with a cup of hot tea and a book.
Today is Valentine's Day, and it's cold outside. And I can't think of anything nicer than nibbling on chocolate while curled up with a favorite romance novel. Today perhaps you can find time to pull out an old favorite and find the good part. Just skip to the part that you know makes you smile, cry or sigh – whether it's the sweet love scene where they finally get together, the steamy bedroom scene where they really get together, the poignant return of the hero, or the entertaining clash of wills that makes you wonder if they'll ever get it sorted out (even though you know they will).
If I were going to spend a few minutes today with some long-time favorite couples from romance novels, I'd be hanging out with Ben and Willa or Matt and Meredith. But I'll probably spend most of the day with my newest favorites – my own characters, Tom and Megan, Matt and Kate, or Michael and Jennifer. And I'll be hoping that I've created characters who readers will fall in love with, and written scenes that readers will want to revisit again and again.
Today is Valentine's Day. Curl up with a love story!
