So... I was working on my editing website a while ago and I did a Google search using the name of the site and my own name (Charmaine Rousseau) as keywords. to check whether Google's web crawlers had picked up the site.

“Really important meetings are planned by the souls long before the bodies see each other.
Generally speaking, these meetings occur when we reach a limit, when we need to die and be reborn emotionally. These meetings are waiting for us, but more often than not, we avoid them happening. If we are desperate, though, if we have nothing to lose, or if we are full of enthusiasm for life, then the unknown reveals itself, and our universe changes direction.”

Ann, I too love the sound of falling water. And the sounds of wind, rain and surf.Wood smoke has a great smell. I also love the smell of earth when rain hits it after a dry spell.

Hi, Liane! Great to meet you.I'd love to have my own private waterfall, too. I fell in love with the sound of falling water when I was a child and it hasn't lost its appeal yet. I think my favorite "perfume" is probably wood smoke, too.

Shawnette, thank you for taking the time to let me know that you enjoyed CAFÉ AU LAIT. If you ever decide to visit Trinidad be sure to let me know! My next romance is set in Miami, and the hero and heroine have Caribbean roots as well. It's in the final edit stage right now.Regarding your question, several readers have told me they would like to read Wanda's story, so I'm giving that some thought for the third romance. I'd like to see more of Gaston myself; I really enjoyed writing him! :)
Thank you for the generous feedback, and all the best to you!
Liane
