My mother-in-law's best friend's husband is Bill Bloom, but he's in his 90s!<br />All I have is a screened in balcony and I didn't sign up for a garden plot in time, so no blooms for me.<br />Ghost Mountain sounds really cool already, and love the cover.Hannah Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03585576526345438345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-76269340548585895712020-05-07T15:08:07.726-05:002020-05-07T15:08:07.726-05:00Yes, indeed!Yes, indeed!Maddie Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02591180926700480845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-50844487415309503992020-05-07T11:32:18.211-05:002020-05-07T11:32:18.211-05:00Jan, I got it right with my second chance, too.

My second chance came with my high school boyfriend. :) I remember getting an email from you some twenty years ago or so saying something like, "Well, we got married." You did it! I can't wait for Darby's story to come out. I liked Hank so much in the McKenna series.

Her name was June. We loved it June Bloom. They broke up. You do a lot to get the hummingbirds. I just put up red flowers and am hoping. No signs yet at my yard but others say they've spotted one.
