A Slammin’ Review From Chrissy At Romance Junkies

Posted on February 23rd, 2009 in Invisible by kimber

Invisible, as regular readers know, is a novel near and dear to my heart so I’ve been anxiously waiting for what you and reviewers think of it.

Well, this weekend, I was on cloud nine because Chrissy at Romance Junkies gave Invisible a 5 Ribbon Review. I really respect Chrissy’s opinion as I’ve enjoyed many of the books she reco’s.

Here is a snippet of what she had to say…

“Ms. Chin gives readers incredible insight into Maeve’s background and through that you’re able to understand more about who she is and why she is so intense and made it a point to be able to become INVISIBLE. Beautifully done Ms. Chin! I thoroughly enjoyed sharing this venture with Hagen and Maeve.’

Valentine’s Day Flowers Part 3 Of 4

Posted on February 18th, 2009 in Short Stories by kimber

“Do you like poetry?”

An aggravated sound came from her throat, she couldn’t help it. “It doesn’t matter what I like. I’m not your wife.”

His head snapped up. “Not yet and if I get this wrong…”

Not yet? What game was he playing? “You’re already married. You forget I deliver flowers to Missus Drepper.”

“Missus Drepper.” The pen fell to the counter top. “Missus Drepper.” Then he was laughing, his hands on his thighs. “No wonder. Missus Drepper.”

Nicole was not amused and slammed the tape dispenser down on the counter to make that clear.

Stopping the laughter. “Oh, Nicky, darling, you’re worried about Missus Drepper?”

“YOU should be worried about Missus Drepper. If I was your wife…” She would lock him up at home, away from irrational flower arrangers.

His brown eyes lit up. “Would you care?”

She sighed. She cared. Too much. “I think you should find a new florist.”

“No, I can’t do that, Nicky, darling, darling Nicky. My Mom, Missus Drepper,” he emphasized the name, “loves your arrangements. In fact, my dad should be in tomorrow for a Valentine’s Day order.”

“Your… your…” Nicole’s brain wasn’t working properly. “Then who…” She waved a hand over the orchids.

“They’re for you.” Sheepish.

For her? She stared.
