Some of the oldest tricks in the book for making your sweetheart melt into your arms on Valentine's Day are also some of the best!
Add a 'movie-tale' spin to Valentines (how many times have you seen your wife/girlfriend smiling at the romantic gestures in her favorite film?)
- spread red rose petals on the bedcovers, draw a bath (add a few petals here too!), light some candles and put on some soft, relaxing music.
- if you have a balcony or access to the a rooftop garden, go to town and set out a lovely dinner for two, complete with candles, lacy linens, champagne and YOU of course, dressed in the best clothes in your closet!
- take a roadtrip into the country and find a secluded spot to spread a picnic blanket out and lay down an exceptional array of treats and creature comforts like an umbrella (more for privacy than shade), a cooler, chilling a great bottle of something mellow and a book of poems that you can read to her as she lies, gazing at the clouds.
Now I don't generally suggest electronic goods as great Valentine gift ideas, but we recently came across a wonderful gift idea that can also be given as a pair (one for each partner). Fresh from Amazon themselves, the Kindle: Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device.
Unusual, yes, but I think the idea of loading up a few romantic novels on the Kindle before giving it to your beloved bookworm is simply delightful!
BEACH Romance - sand, sea and relaxation!
White beaches; cool, clear water and an island adventure at you fingertips; what better way to get away from it all, unwind and spend some much-deserved time indulging in a little light island romance with your sweetheart?

Every woman knows that one of the sexiest things about her man is the way he smells, especially when he smells like a movie star, or a rugged outdoorsman, or a sensitive urbanite that dresses to kill! So what better way to get him to be the man of your dreams than by helping him select a fragrance that enhances all his best features?
When selecting a fragrance for the special man in your life, remember that it should enhance his personality and add to his charm.
