As a displaced Kentuckian limited to visiting once or twice a year, I was looking forward to this book to enhance my wife and mine's experiences. Although I am intimately familiar with the Lexington area, I was nonetheless delighted to find many central Kentucky locales that were new to me. The authors have obviously done their research, and have represented all regions of the state well. Most satisfying to me personally was the inclusion of Joseph-Beth Booksellers of Lexington. It is indeed a wonderful place for romance. This book is perfect for anyone looking for a romantic experience, and hopefully it will encourage more people to recognize Kentucky as the special place that it is.

I've visited many of the places in this book and the authors are right on target with their recommendations. I'll be planning other romantic getaways with my significant other with the help of this book. A must for anyone who is thinking of visiting Kentucky, as well as those of us fortunate to live here!

Growing up, I always wanted to go to Europe, after all that was the center of history and art in my school books...nowhere was there the idea of exploring the areas around home and across the US. I now realize that we have a lot to see and do right here in our back yard. This is the kind of book that opens doors to things you never knew were there. If you want to plan a Kentucky getaway for two, this is the book for you.
