"Some people say that if we worry, we've lost our faith. I don't believe that. It pushes me toward God, to trust Him that everything will be alright." - Moonlight Serenade by Rita Gerlach
"God, I need water right now. I'm drying up under all this. I've made a mess, and only You can make it right again." - Only Forever by Lauralee Bliss
"He'd failed at his mission . . . . . And now he'd have to suffer the consequences. And the indignity of being caught by the WOOPs-de-doo who was never supposed to know he was there." - Blue Moon by Johnnie Alexander
"She'd lived her life making few mistakes. If tonight was to be one, well, maybe she'd earned it." - Dream a Little Dream by Amanda Barratt
I must say, my love of subterfuge drew me into "Blue Moon" especially and quickly. And who wouldn't want to meet a movie star . . . . . "Dream a Little Dream" was . . . . well, . . . dreamy. What an enjoyable collection of inspiration and romance!
