That, in the background, is my George Clooney flipping a bird at Fabio. Two romance gods had a catfight a few nights ago at a restaurant. Fabio was having dinner with some ladies and they started snapping photographs. George, sitting with his lady nearby, thought they were taking photos of him and he asked them to stop.
Fabio told him it was all about him, that he was the real buttah. George said, nonononono, it was ALL ABOUT HIM, that he was the real buttah. Fabio then yelled, "Oh, stop being a diva!"
At which, George, having had a couple of drinks, stood up and pushed Fabio! Fabio pushed back! Words! Insults hurled! Hair tossing! Manboobs bumping! And then the waiters intervened.
Damn. What I wouldn't give to see my George and Fabio clawing each other's eyes out. All romance gods are divas, don't they know? Thank God Fabio didn't hurt my baby's beautiful chin dimple.
;-)
Definitely not uberspy material, eh?
***********
I keep forgetting, but here's Publishers' Weekly list of the BEST 2007 Books. Their romance list is very small:
Twice the Temptation by Suzanne Enoch (Avon)
This double feature concerns one couple in 1814, one couple in 2007 (Enoch's popular Billionaire series leads) and the cursed diamond they're all mixed up with; crisp dialogue, smart characters and brisk plotting throughout.
The Perfect Bride by Brenda Joyce (HQN)
Joyce's seventh de Warenne novel is a first-rate Regency with deliciously damaged leads; fluff-free, Joyce's tight plot and vivid cast make for a romance that's just about perfect.
Wired by Liz Maverick (Dorchester/Shomi)
Told by a sassy female computer programmer pursued by two strange men with the power to alter reality, this suprising mashup of romance and cyberpunk may be the blueprint for romance's next generation.
One with the Shadows by Susan Squires (St. Martin's)
With a mischievous leading lady and a mannered but offbeat vampire mythos, this 1820s paranormal is so solid and subtle, it may convert devotees of traditional historicals.
The Winter Lodge by Susan Wiggs (Mira)
Complicated, flesh-and-blood characters inhabit Wiggs's idyllic but identifiable Lakeshore Chronicles, weaving a refreshingly honest smalltown tapestry of romance, domestic drama, mystery and generations-old Polish recipes.
They are missing some other great books! What about Marjorie Liu's Soul Song? And Emma Holly's Fairyville, something different from her? I bet y'all can add a few to that list, can't you?
Bear with me while I learn. The first button likes the POST. The second button likes the BLOG site. Please help me by "liking" me. Thanks!

Why do I keep picturing them slapping at each other like pre-pubescent teen girls?
so, so funny. Do you think their girlfriends were fighting too or taking pics? Hahahahahaha.
Uh, that's a really long finger.... :o)
I would have paid to see that catfight. My money is on Fabio, LOL.
SQ,
LOL. I can so see that too!
Leslie,
Taking pictures! To use it against them later!
Marisa,
Whoa...I never thought of it that way! ;-)
Lady Zannah,
You know, Fabio is a pretty big guy, and much taller than my Clooney. My Clooney is purtier, so maybe he wouldn't want to hurt his face or something....
Hahaha I came in here to comment on the length of that finger too. Great minds think alike Marisa. (It really does appear to have that extra length you know)
