I am lucky enough to be married to a very romantic
man (not that he realises it!) and my wonderful Mr B has done many romantic
things for me over our 22 years together.
If I have to pick one that will never, ever
leave my memory for as long as I live was when I mentioned that my favourite
author, Nora Roberts, was coming to Ireland to do a book signing. I was
desperate and this would most likely be the closest
she ever came to visit.
Within 6 hours of telling my husband, he
had booked a flight to Ireland and also a night at the fabulous hotel where
Nora was signing and staying. Ashford Castle is the most amazingly romantic,
beautiful place I have ever seen, and certainly stayed. I truly didn’t want to
leave… sigh
I not only got a book signed by Nora and
talked to her about my own writing, but enjoyed an afternoon tea, listened as
Nora gave a fabulous interview with her UK editor AND a hello from her later on
in the hotel bar. I was in heaven! On top of all this, my husband and I were
upgraded to one of their best rooms…it was phenomenal.
Without doubt, a romantic Time Out!
