Life gives answer in 3 ways : " It says YES and gives you what you want, It says NO and gives you something better and It says WAIT and gives you the best...from then till now, you hold my heart, you taught me how to feel love and will be the last one to share love...Never say goodbye if you still want to try. Never give up if you still feel you can go on. Never say you do not love a person anymore if you cannot let go.

Question to all: In high school, were you a Monarch Notes or Cliff Notes person? I always had a feeling the students who preferred the latter didn't want to read the actual book they were assigned, and Cliff -- being more summary and less analysis than Monarch -- made for an even quicker read. (Talk about lazy! lol)
And remember, we had no internet back then.

I'm looking for the name of a book I read a looong time ago - at least 8 years ago. This is what I can remember from it:
It's a historical romance. The hero steals the heroine, I think because his enemy wanted her also. He takes her virginity (possibly rapes her), and then dips his family signet ring in the blood from her torn hymen, and stamps his family seal over the sheets, so that the enemy will know who has taken her. Then he steals her away and I think he marries her.
But I think he keeps a mistress also, at least in the first half of the book, before he falls in love with his wife, of course.
Sorry to be so vague, but this is really all I can remember.
Hope someone recognizes it.

Simple answer is that we all have a different definition of what "love" is.Until those 2 people (that have that same agreed upon definition) meet,the search continues for us all.Have a splendid day everyone!!

When I was in high school, probably around 1978 or so, I read a book.
I don’t remember the name of it, nor do I remember the author, but I‘d really like to read that book again. If I can only find somebody who knows what I’m talking about and can give me the missing information!
The basic story is about a man. He’s a very rich man – perhaps the owner of a factory or a big building. He gets burned in a fire, and ends up retreating from society because of the scars. He automates his factory – or building – to the point where he lays everybody off; now it’s just him in the building.
He goes out at night when everybody else is asleep, and comes across a zoo that has been emptied out, all except for a seal that has somehow been abandoned (like that would ever happen in real life!). He befriends the seal and takes it back “home” with him.
He nurses it back to health, builds a huge tank for it, and basically heals a part of himself in the process of taking care of the injured animal.
One day, he decides to take the seal for a swim in the actual ocean. The seal has such a good time he realizes that it needs to be set free. So he goes about having an underwater house built for himself so he can go live with his seal.
One thing leads to another, and you find yourself in the Marianas Trench with the guy and his seal. The trench is so deep that the oxygen bubbles from his scuba gear go down instead of up, leading the man in the wrong direction. He runs out of oxygen and becomes disoriented even further – and winds up taking his mask off.
Does this sound familiar to anybody? Can anybody tell me the title and author of this book?

To David - 1/21/2010 - 3:23:27 PM:
It has been a long time since I read this book, but it may be:
The Last Time They Met: A Novel by Anita Shreve
I hope I have been some help in your search.

I just love the books written by Susanna Kearsley (historical fiction/mystery). Also now goes by name of Emma Cole (thrillers). You won't be able to put them down after the first page. She has written about 8 books now. Many titles include The Winter Sea, Mariana, The Shadowy Horses. Pls. post your thoughts once you have read one. This is a great website.
