Kudos!<BR/><BR/>Carleen, I loved, loved, loved, loved Orange Mint! The characters were so well developed and your writing is so crisp and engaging. I really felt like I knew them. Having never been to Denver I had no clue as to how accurate your descriptions were, but a good friend from Denver said she got homesick reading it because the depictions were just that good.<BR/>Can't wait for the next book.Shellshockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09743556322546747229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-262683133067234581.post-87502901378358039692009-02-18T11:09:00.000-05:002009-02-18T11:09:00.000-05:00I have to check out for a few hours...Have fun!!!!...I have to check out for a few hours...<BR/>Have fun!!!! will return later...<BR/>:-)Chris Eldinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11794946908789120139noreply@blogger.com
