CELEBRATING LOVE–A CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE AUTHOR’S TAKE

Valentine’s is a great moment to celebrate love. Yes, many people say this (and every other holiday) are over-commercialized, but maybe the marketing folk have jumped on the right train. Let’s face it, we like special moments. The best Valentine’s gifts are specific to your love–targeted just for what she or he likes. Buy your Valentine an e-reader with an Amazon or Barnes & Noble gift card if she likes to read. Take walks if she likes the outdoors. Plan a day watching her favorite sappy movies or give her an extra-special foot massage. Valentine’s gifts don’t have to be all about bon-bons(although I don’t have anything against them, myself:-).

You get to do what works best for you.

Whether Valentine’s Day means getting a sweet or funny greeting card, buying a bunch of red roses or simply telling your loved ones what they mean to you, go for it!
