Synopsis:

The sexy and deeply romantic internationally bestselling novel that inspired the blockbuster movie.

Laura Biel and her boyfriend are on a dream vacation in beautiful Sicily. On the second day of their trip, her twenty-ninth birthday, she is kidnapped. Her kidnapper is none other than the head of a powerful Sicilian crime family, the incredibly handsome, young Don Massimo Torricelli, who is determined to possess her at all costs. Massimo has his reasons. During an earlier attempt on his life, a vision appeared before his eyes: a beautiful woman, identical to Laura. After surviving the attack, he vows that he will find the woman in his vision and make her his own. No matter what.

For 365 days, Massimo will keep Laura captive in his palatial estate and attempt to win her heart. If she doesn’t fall in love with him during this time, he will let her go. But if she tries to escape at any point, he will track her down and kill her entire family.

Soon Laura develops a fascination with her handsome and powerful captor. But as a precarious, risky relationship forms between them, forces outside their control threaten to tear them apart...

My Opinion:

Oh my gosh, this book was hot. I do mean absolutely hot. I want to say this was an amazing book. I know there are a bunch of people who would call me crazy for calling this book amazing. However, I'm looking at several details. The first of which and the main thing being that this is a translated book. I kept in mind that books being translated can get lost in translation a bit. Other countries do not build their sentences the same way as Americans.

So keeping that major thought in mind I do think that this book was amazing. It is a dark romance and no this may not be for everyone. However, a book doesn't need to be condemned because it wasn't your cup of tea. The people who read it and love it do not need to be condemned for their taste in books.

I enjoyed this book and I did read it obviously like everyone else after they saw the movie. I did notice several difference between the two. Did it make me like the Movie any less? No it didn't. Were there moments in the book that made me squirm? I would say so but not bad. There were a few moments that I would say might trigger some people.

The way they made plans for Valentine's Day without knowing much about each other. Him being quick to protect her when they went back for the dog. T...

Baker's Corner-Herbed Crockpot Bread

Preparing to make this bread. Yes, you read that right! Herbed Crock Pot Bread. I probably thought the same thing that you are thinking right now. You can make bread in the crockpot?!? Where the heck has this been all my life! So I decided that I would try this recipe and I'll let a link to where I found the recipe at the bottom along with the recipe itself. I want to give credit where credit is due. So anyways I was pretty stoked to find a recipe that I could make bread in the crockpot. I want to go ahead and make note that all crockpots are different and not all of them cook at the same temperature. So while the times in this may work for you they did not work for me. The recipe is simple to do and fairly quick in the process if you have all of the ingredients on hand. I thought I had all the ingredients on hand only to discover I did not so a quick trip to the Dollar General was in order. Sadly they did not have the items I needed so I made a quick trip next door to ...
