* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

A movement caught her eye, and as she turned to follow it she saw the cardinal take its perch on the snow-covered branch of a maple. I sat, a single spot of vivid red, and sang.


I finished this book this morning and it was sitting in front of my keyboard. Vision in White by Nora Roberts, book one in the Bride Quartet

    I love Nora Roberts - for some reason this reminded me of a song by Anne Murray - I think it was called Snowbird?

Thank you!

I have no idea why the captcha thing is showing up. I've got the setting marked "no" that I don't want it. Grrrrrr! But, I believe that if you skip entering anything it will post.
