My poor baby bassets must hate the crazy I put on them sometimes. With hubby not at home, and my impatience more than I can bare, I decided I was going to put the big heavy totes of who knows what up in the attic. This of course involves a shaky ladder and totes that love to pop open, without warning (because whats the fun in giving warnings) and spit fragile items out. Now, none of this ever happens when my hubby puts the totes up in the attic, just me. How special I feel. So I yelled for my baby bassets to please stand off to the side and watch me as I do the climb of death up into the attic with the Jack in the Box of totes. My instructions are always the same. If I fall and I’m unresponsive, please call 911. Also… and this is the most important part… do not repeat the mommy words that inevitably come pouring out of my mouth every time I have to drag these awful totes up the shaky death ladder into the attic that surely has a few monsters if not a whole family of raccoons. So there they stand, in the corner of the garage, phone at the ready, watching their mother, wearing a robe, halling totes in the attic, thinking to themselves…. why us.

“Her name is trouble… ” James Hayburn’s friend warns him to stop staring at Lady Ashley Aguirre across a bullring in Mexico City. After all, he has just left England because his affairs with married women in high society have made him unwelcome at home. “They will kill you for nothing here,” the friend adds. Mexico can be the most civilized or the most brutal of places, but when fate throws James and the lovely, sweet Lady Ashley together again, the attraction between them will be impossible to ignore. He is the real life adventurer whose childhood in jungles and deserts she has been following all her life; she is much more woman than artifice, and she needs to be rescued out of her marriage. After the Day of the Dead in Cuernavaca, it’s hard for James to accept being apart from Ashley, even if she needs to hear three words he cannot say. Or perhaps he can, if only it isn’t too late… Sex scenes, non-graphic.
