“months.  Weather was unpredictable and synthetic ice was now readily available”
Barbara Hinske, Coming to Rosemont

“Sugar, Rocco, and I trotted over to our people. Something big was happening, and we needed to be part of it. From the Heart”
Barbara Hinske, From the Heart

“You’ll make mistakes, as we all do, and if you’re smart, you’ll take the lesson from those mistakes without letting them derail you. I have three principles that have proved very helpful in my own life: set your bar high—make sure that your goals are worthy of your efforts; be true to your personal values and guard your integrity; and as my grandmother used to say, ‘Don’t borrow trouble or horribilize over problems that haven’t happened yet.’ Let me elaborate …” Maggie”
Barbara Hinske, Bringing Them Home

Helen I really loved "coming to Rosemont". I am waiting for the next book so I can continue the saga. Please hurry. Thanks for writing a book that has a woman character that thinks like a woman.
