Since Thanksgiving was last November 22, I asked Robin about the things she is thankful for.
Here's what she wrote:
Five Things I’m Thankful For by Robin Danner
Thanksgiving is over, but ‘tis the season to give thanks and I dropped by today to let you know what I’m grateful for.
First off, of course, would be my family. My parents…well for the obvious reasons! Without them, I wouldn’t be here. So thank you, Mom and Dad, for feeling sexy that night and creating the wonderful miracle of life that is your daughter! (Insert cheeky grin here)
Secondly, I’m grateful for my husband, who came along and showed me everything that was missing from my life. He’s perfect for me in every way. And by that, I mean that he lets me win every argument and pretty much get what I want. Yep, I’m a spoiled wifey.
Which leads me to number three ... my three sons, whom I love more than life itself. They’re truly the best parts of us and I can’t wait to see what they become. And hopefully one of them will give me a granddaughter, so I can buy something pink just once in my life!
Next up would be my Oreo, my doggie who is now longer with us. I dreaded the day I would lose her and I never imagined it would be so soon. But it’s true what they say, her memory will live in my heart forever.
And last but not least, I am grateful for air conditioning. I know, I know. It’s not hot in November, but the memory of humid summer days in southeast Alabama is bad enough for it to remain in the forefront of my mind. I don’t know who is credited with the invention, but whoever you are, my hat is off to you!
So, that’s it. That’s what I’m grateful for. Although it would be remiss of me if I did not award a Honorable Mention. I’m soooo grateful that I escaped Walmart on Black Friday!
Happy holidays, everyone!

About the book --
Prince Talin’s trusted captain, Nadia, is ordered to abduct his brother, Prince Mathis of Isidor, and bring him to the wedding of Talin and the daughter of their family’s sworn enemy.
Loyalties are tested and enemies gather as Mathis and Nadia’s inescapable attraction threatens to bind the pair together.

Excerpt:
“Cold?” The prince’s hands came up to caress her arms.* * *
Through the silk of the gown, she could feel the warmth that emanated from him. After a moment’s hesitation, she sighed and allowed him the familiarity.
“Look, it has begun.” He turned her in his arms and pulled her against him, wrapping his arms around her waist. His breath ruffled the curls at her temple.
Nadia sank into him, relishing the feel of his strong body behind her. She could hear the oohs and aahs from others in the garden, yet nothing could be more spectacular than the man who held her. She watched the fireworks with detached interest, choosing instead to savor her last moments with the prince. After tonight, she had to end this farce. The best she could hope for was to become his mistress, but if she did, her career would be destroyed. No man would take orders from her if he thought she was a whore. But she would allow herself this one night. One night to feel like a desirable woman.
Then she would return to reality.
The fireworks ended, and the voices began to fade as the crowd moved back inside, probably to continue dancing. She and Mathis were left alone in the garden. When he turned her in his arms, her breath caught. Moonlight streamed across his face, highlighting his elegant cheekbones and the regal slant of his nose. A hint of shadow had appeared on the line of his jaw. She traced it with her fingertips, smiling when it tickled her.
“Do you have any idea how beautiful you are?”
