I really need to read the first book in the Pink Carnation series and Harrod-Eagles has been on my TBR list forever. Great Loot!<br /><br />Regarding your comment on my top ten love stories, I toyed with putting Hannah & Ben on the list because I loved them, too! Ben was the absolutely perfect man for her, and OMG, is he SEXY! That was one of the things that disappointed me in the final book--his reduced role to babysitter. I wanted more of him!Jenny Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12912015732671970679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18884029.post-81646383676843973862011-02-11T14:23:19.063+11:002011-02-11T14:23:19.063+11:00I cannot recommend the India Black book highly eno...I cannot recommend the India Black book highly enough.
