It's nice to know that a romance novel can be "clean" and not full of smut!!<BR/><BR/>Hey Julie...you need to go back to having purple as your favorite color. You'd not only be in the great company of Nora, but me too. LOL!!<BR/><BR/>Chris G.

How did we luck out getting to know her, anyway??? So glad you are enjoying APR -- anxious to see if you hate Charity as much as some of the readers do.<BR/><BR/>And, Nora, my apologies for a Blogger snafu -- the last two comments from "Amy" are actually from me. Everytime my daughter Amy comes home, her Blogger account seems to mess up mine and I don't even know it until the post appears.

From reading the previews for them, they look very good. They remind me of Tracie Peterson books.

What a shock to see he stands head to shoulders taller than you. Is he just tall or are you just smaller? I love reading about how your books came about and your preferences on things. I'm a brownie fan myself, though if cookies are there, I'd not turn away from them. Is there a choice of A Passion Most Pure or A Passion Redeemed? If so, I'd like to ask to be entered in the drawing for your second book. Thanks, Nora, for the interview. What amazing questions you came up with!<BR/>Thanks SO MUCH.

It brought back memories of my own book The Scent of God: A Memoir and my publishers remark about my reticence to elaborate on the "first time". You've got to share a bit more.
