Actually, you dont know. :Smiley:
I am well-known in the Harlequin online community and classic Harlequins are full of misogynistic crap like "you frigid bitch!" and millionaire men spouting how any woman who is not a virgin is automatically a slut.

Wait. There's a Harlequin online community? Too funny.

I would 100% accept that the producers encouraged them to make out virtually constantly, and made sure there were many opportunities, because that sort of chemistry is TV Gold, and why they do infinite screen testings in Rom Com's to get a couple onscreen that has "it." Those two have it, on or off camera. There may well be nothing else there and only loins, not hearts, were ever in play.

That doesn't make me believe her heart was in play with Jef, and candidly, as my pals around here will attest, I've been patiently waiting to see that, because I do enjoy a good "AWWWWWWWWWWW" at the end of this show.

I believe you may get that AWWWW moment. I actually think Emily fell in love with Jef (and I'm usually a skeptic) but, I saw something in her eyes during the htd that totally made believe that she was in love (at least, at that moment in time).

I hope it wasn't when he was reading the letter to her...

Why? It was the video from last night that were not his words (or Aries, or Seans). I believe the letter was written by Jef - nobody has come up with any kind of proof that it wasn't.

The guys don't have phones or computers. They are not sitting around ripping off lines from wedding videos. Cassie, more than likely helped all three. It's NBD.

Harlequines are full of crap. We CAN agree on that. They are also full of flowery phrases that are vomit inducing. That was the point I was making. I even clarified that I didn't know if it was producer driven or Jef. Can't even imagine being in an online Harlequin community. That's downright scary.

Didn't mean to offend anyone, that was simply my opinion.

I think when he uses his hand while talking with his pinky stuck out is very 'don juan like'...he needs a glass of red wine and a gold pinky ring to complete the look! :yes:

In comparison to historicals which traditionally have the most purple prose, most Harlequin bks usually have clear prose bc they are heavily edited and have to be translated into dozens of languages so that they are read the world over.

So Arie just tweeted what I'm guessing is his schedule for announcing an Indylights race, but one of the dates coincides with the finale/ATFR and is in Edmonton. So are these dates just not accurate or is he not going to be at the ATFR or what? I guess he can catch a flight from Edmonton to LA, but I don't really know if it would be possible to get the ATFR on time. scratch

He does the Indy Light series which is on the Sat. so he can fly out of Edmonton Sunday a.m. or late Sat. and have plenty of time to be in L.A. for the show.
