Tomorrow is Valentines Day! It's a day filled with warm
hearts, lots of chocolate, romantic dinners, foil balloons, cards, and yes,
roses. Why do you give roses? Or why do you like to receive roses? For me, receiving roses is how I can tell the
person giving them is truly thinking of me. Mainly, I like how roses smell -- divine.
I hope you have a great Valentines day. Here are some facts about roses:
Roses have been with us over 35 million years.
Napoleon's wife, the Empress Josephine, was a well known
rose breeder.
Rose water is used in baklava.
Roses are a minor source of vitamin C.
The Rose Bowl is the oldest bowl. It was first played in
1902.
Cleopatra used roses to seduce Marc Antony.
The oldest blooming rose bush is in Germany. It's over 1,000
years old.
Question for you: How
do you like to spend Valentines Day? This year, I'll be sharing cards with my
boys and sharing Lindt Strawberry Crème truffles with them.

Star Reviews on Amazon
The story
was compelling and not boring, which is often a stereotype of sweet romances. I
would recommend this short sweetie of a story. Good job, author. - Angel E
Excerpt:
"Your
case threatened to run away, so I bribed it." Her sweet expression was an
arrow through his heart.
"Really?
What did you bribe it with?" He wiped the sweat off his brow with a
handkerchief, caused from a combination of the summer heat and lifting the
heavy cases.
"A
job."
He hooked
his thumb toward his chest. "Are you offering me a job, Miss
Santori?"
