this is the second book in the full hearts set, but you do not need to read the first one, they are really standalone read just slightly linked threw secondary characters. this is a good read, must say not as good as the first but still worth a read. as the story line unfolds the story becomes more gripping and I couldn't put it down in the final characters. this is a very steamy, romantic and very enjoyable read. would definitely recommend

I just couldn't put this book down till id finished it. I was hooked from the first page till the last one. This is the first book ive read in this series but the third book in the series. What a fantastic story with amazing characters. The writing is exceptional with lots of very hot and steamy scenes. This is a dark read but very romantic by the end.

Highly recommended

Poseidon (2006)

2006 | Action, Drama
Billed as an antidote to those of us who didn’t like the romantic elements of 1997’s box office behemoth, Titanic; Poseidon had the makings of a great disaster film.

Unfortunately, a ballooning budget that ended up reaching $160million and a lacklustre story that featured incredibly wooden characters meant Poseidon sank like a stone upon its release.

It did manage to recoup some of that budget back through home video release, but Warner Bros. still ended up writing the film down as a massive loss.

I very much enjoyed this novel. Not only do I love Arthurian tales, I love ones with weird storylines. I really like how this was written by some unknown guy and was only recently rediscovered. (well recent-ish). This translation is great because it has the crazy Middle English along with the modern English translation on facing pages. This makes it easier to use both wordings to analyze. If you enjoy reading romantic/Arthurian stories, pick this one up! I am really glad I had to read this for one of my classes!
  
Emma Whitecastle is trying to enjoy a romantic Thanksgiving weekend with her boyfriend on Catalina, but the trip is interrupted when she keeps seeing the ghost of a woman who disappeared in the 60's. Can Emma find out what really happened to the woman? It was great to see these characters again, and I enjoyed the humor in the book. Yet it reaches a more serious ending, which I found appropriate.

This film has a timeless appeal, and is one of my all-time favourites.

It is a story filled with twists and turns, and some moments of real suspense - all interspersed with light humour and romance.

Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn play the main characters in the film, and have a wonderful on-screen chemistry, which makes it all the more enjoyable to watch.

Perhaps the best - and most unexpected - part of the film is its ability to keep you guessing right to the very end.

Good story about fate
A decent little romantic film, although labeled a Rom-com most of the time it feels more of a drama with a lot of light hearted moments than truly laugh out loud scenes. It did remind me of Serendipity quite a bit, would have to admit that is by far the better film. One of the best of the genre in my opinion.
Still this has a good cast and it was an enjoyable to watch, without being the typical hollywood Rom-com most of the time. Definitely worth checking out.

This is the first book to actually crack me up in years. Even if you don't like all the stories, everyone is bound to find at least a few they enjoy (even if you just read the zombie stories). The zombie stories range from creepy to romantic to just plain hilarious, and because they're short they're a great pick-me-up at the end of the day. Due to the mature nature of some of the stories I wouldn't recommend this book for anyone who has not yet entered high school.
