Dorothy is delicious-her poems are like her. . . warm, funny, sexy, deep and very loving. How lucky her children are-to have learned how to love. . .I love you, Dorothy. -Barbra StreisandDorothy Bridges celebrates life and love in all its permutations and we are invited along to share in the festivities. You Caught Me Kissing' is full of love, humor, hope and inspiration. Lloyd and Dorothy Bridges’ love affair is more than a love story. Through her poetry and prose we get a candid look into what made that long relationship work. The photographs are rare and the asides by her children, Beau, Jeff and Lucinda make this literary treasure complete. -Rod McKuenI recently read Dorothy Bridges’ book 'You Caught Me Kissing.' It is a beautiful little book-heartfelt, wistful reflections of her long loving relationships and marriage. I met them both just once and briefly. They were so warm, friendly, generous and kind; filled with exuberance and light. I felt they had known me and I had known them as old friends. That is rare. Everything now is a quick fix, a quick answer, but that kind of exuberance and outgoingness is golden. The last poems are particularly poignant-they were written after Lloyd had passed on. This book is an inspirational gem about love, loyalty, and steadfastness through all of life’s vicissitudes. The book itself is a valentine, a loving partner of many years. -Anthony HopkinsA great love story between Dorothy & Lloyd Bridges, the international film and TV star, told in Dorothy’s acclaimed poems and lavishly illustrated with exclusive photos from the Bridges family, all enhanced with personal insights from her illustrious children, Jeff, Beau and Lucinda Bridges. 1 You will experience many kinds of kisses in your lifetime, but only if you are exceptionally lucky will you share the rare lover’s kiss that lasts forever. 1 For Dorothy Bridges, the kiss began when she was eighteen years old. It was commemorated every Valentine’s Day with a new poem to her beloved Lloyd. 1 Dorothy is the matriarch of the quintessential American acting family. Her warm and insightful poems have been published and performed, but it is only at the insistence of her talented children that she has agreed for the first time to share them with the public in this book. 1 Loving, tender and bittersweet, You Caught Me Kissing is a triumphant tribute to the institution of marriage and a collection to be shared during any celebration of love.

    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
