Cheryl Hodde writes romantic medical suspense under the pen name of Hannah Alexander, using all the input she can get from her husband, Mel, for the medical expertise. For fun she hikes and reads. Out of guilt, she rescues discarded cats. She and Mel are presently taking orders from four pampered strays.

I have got to read it. Your tastes and mine run pretty close!
I'd loan it to you, but it's on my Nook. :-(
I had put that book on hold at the library (where I work) and by the time it came in I had no idea why I had put it on hold in the first place. Thankfully, I spoke with a co-worker about the book. She asked if she could read it after I was finished. I am so glad I read that book! I am not usually drawn to a book just because it is on the bestseller list. I'm thinking I now should check out those books a little closer.
I read that a few weeks ago and LOVED it! I couldn't put it down.
Francine Rivers newest release, Her Mother's Hope. I just read the sequel (not out yet) Her Daughter's Dream. The characters are unforgettable.
I read The Help and really liked it. But I got bored about 2/3 of the way through and jumped to the end. Goes to show you how subjective fiction is. :)
Another great book for characters is The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. I read it in Nov of 2008 and still think about the characters.
The whole Mitford series. Father Tim is still real to me!
