Here's a heartwarming story just in time for Spring:

ASIN: B0CM22CH7S
Product Type: Kindle Store
Amazon's Price: $ 1.99

Darrin is a hard-working architect who finds comfort in his routines. It’s work, sleep, and family obligations for him. With Easter just around the corner, his company puts out a call for a two-week assignment in Poland. After careful contemplation and with a nudge from his intuition to go outside his comfort zone, Darrin puts in an application for the job. A tad nervous, a tad excited, Darrin steps off the plane ready to challenge himself. The one thing he didn’t expect, though, was to find himself attracted to his beautiful Polish interpreter.

Sofia loves her career. She works for Warszawianka Construction as an interpreter. She’s also focused on her family, especially during Easter when old-fashioned traditions mean a lot to her. Sofia has no intention of disrupting her life and its rhythms, despite Darrin’s sudden appearance.

Both Darrin and Sofia can’t deny their attraction. It’s that uncomfortable feeling that keeps them up late at night contemplating what’s next. A date? A kiss? Are they both willing to go outside their comfort zones and trust in a higher power that they can make it work despite an ocean between them?
Working in my romance love NL and I have some questions, that should you choose to answer might find their way into my NL

Why do you read romance novels or watch romantic movies?

What type of guy or girl is your favorite? What traits should they possess!

What sub genre of romance do you like to read?

How often do you read a romance story?

Do you like you romance sweet or spicy!

Thanks a lot! I appreciate your feedback!
Smiles

Joto-Kai Author Icon - Romance is a big tent, with room for all levels of spice and all sorts of traits, and even for characters that mysteriously do not kiss when kissing is available...

(My own romantic stories tend toward medium-spicy, and I am a sucker for a pair of romantic leads that inspire each other to be better people.)
Raven Author Icon - Sure. Still I think that I go too soft. The lady who saw Scarlett as a personal rival, thought Scarlett deserved more spice.
Thanks everyone for your comments and thoughts! It's much appreciated! Smiles

You all know I'm a 911 dispatcher for LAPD. I'm okay, I'm north of the fire, but the department is busy with evacuations. LAFD is stressed out and believe it or not, the water ran out. We're getting lots of phone calls on the 911 line. We do have fire resources coming in from out of state. Gotta power nap before I got in. I'll give an update when I can. Smiles, Steph

L.A..... The most famous city in the world. Be happy you're a major part of it. Be blessed and happy new year!
*Heart* STAY SAFE OUT THERE! *Heart*
Happy New Year to you and your family and be careful please. I know how L.A. can be crazy. I will hear both as well.
I'll be working on New Year's Eve and ringing in the new year at work. Pros: we're catering a meal and a co-worker has planned a lot of fun games. Con: It's work. Pro: it's overtime. Con: It's work.

Anyone else have plans? Tomorrow during the day I'm going to the Senior No Tap. I got a Primal Rage Motiv bowling ball for Christmas. Can't wait to drill it.

Smiles to all!!

I was supposed to be working tonight, but the woman hasn't got in touch with me, so I guess I'll see NYE in on the other side of the bar. Fireworks at midnight, then back to the pub.

Less than 10 hours until it's next year!
I’ll be working til about 3 am. Busiest night of the year at the club. But thankfully we are closed New Year’s Day.
