    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HEIDI!!! :purplebat

    Better not enter me in the giveaway – I just won and don’t want to upset the gods…speaking of, did you see my Darling Henry’s (aka, Hunk of the Month) movie, The Immortals is out today? Happy Bday, indeed… :fanglips

    • Heidi says:

      I don’t have any rules about folks winning too much too often, so you’re fine…

      And the release of Immortals is a nice b’day gift, even tho you know I won’t bother leaving the house to see it. I mean, I have my Darling Dwayne’s Faster sitting here on DVD & haven’t even stopped to watch it. 🙁 :elvira

    Happy Birthday, Heidi! Wishing you a blessed day with many more to come..
    And Happy Veteran’s Day to my fellow comrades past, present & future.
    *FBF* :lol

  12. Diana Robledo says:

    Wishing you all the best on your special day, Heidi. May it be filled with lots of love, lots of gifts, and most importantly – lots of chocolate cake! ; )

    Happy FBF to everyone!

  13. Heidi says:

    Thank you SO MUCH, everybody—you’re so sweet to me!

    I have always loved my b’day, because it also falls on Veteran’s Day, & I’m super-excited about today because of the 11/11/11 thing. I feel like I need to read some horoscopes or do some research & find out what the significance is. People have been talking about it, but it hasn’t quite clicked for me yet. Just heard you’re supposed to make a wish at 11:11 on 11/11/11, but that was at 11:24, so I missed my chance—at least until 11:11pm. :uhoh

    • Heidi says:

      Hi, Angel! Welcome to The Dungeon—we’re delighted to have you! :dancingbat

      As far as I know, Once a Princess is a stand-alone story, so no others you need to read before or after. I read it by itself, anyway, & had no problems. It’s one of my favorite Johanna Lindsey stories, but I don’t *think* it’s part of a series.

      Good luck! :fanglips

  18. Colleen C. says:

    Happy Happy B-day Heidi!
    Wishing you the best!

    • Heidi says:

      Oh, I used to love Johanna Lindsey. Haven’t enjoyed some of her more recent books as much as the old ones, but I still read her.

      A few more of my faves by her: Man of My Dreams…Prisoner of My Desire…Gentle Rogue… Have you read those?

  21. Terri says:

    :uhoh where is my cake?
    :thinking ” I don’t know . maybe Heidi’s hunk ate it all. ”
    :zpoker ” Hey Heidi! HAPPPY BIRTHDAY!!! ”

    ” I just reading ” THe Heir” by Johanna Lindsay right now. it is good book . Wish you have a blessing Veteran’s day as well.

    • Heidi says:

      :fangsmiley

      I can’t remember if I read The Heir of not. I think I might have. Either that or The Present. (I get some of these “The” titles mixed up. LOL)

  25. Cathy Ward says:

    Happy Birthday… and many more!

    FBF – you should demand we all send you a book for your BD.

    :lol

    • Heidi says:

      Hey, now there’s an idea! Next year, YOU will all be required to send ME a book.

      And so it was that Darling Cathy was stoned to death by her fellow Darlings… :littlevamp

      :lol :lol :lol

  26. StacieD says:
