A big CONGRATULATIONS to my beta-reading buddy Scarlett Cole today! Her three book deal with St. Martin's has officially been announced.
*loads cannon with confetti and pie* *fires it despite the mess* *dances maniacally under falling chunks of pie and paper*
I am, of course, so happy for Scarlett, but I'm also quite please for all of you. This means you are that much closer to getting to read THE STRONGEST STEEL. And, trust me, you want to.
After hearing all this great news, I am now in the mood for romance. In case you're feeling the same way, here are a few of my recent favorites:
Romancing the Duke (Tessa Dare)
A charming twist on Beauty & the Beast, complete with fairy tales within fairy tales and some Regency LARPing. What's not to love?
It Happened One Wedding (Julie James)
If you're a fan of banter, this one's for you. More than once did I grin goofily at a section of dialogue - one of the many reasons I try to read out of the public eye.
It's in His Kiss (Jill Shalvis)
This is the tenth installment of the Lucky Harbor books and if it wasn't for my deep devotion to the east coast, I'd be packing my bags to move cross country - fictional town or not. Not to mention, Becca and Sam are currently warring with Chloe and Sawyer for my favorite town couple.
Waiting on You (Kristan Higgins)
A very sweet second chance at first love story. The characters are likable, but not perfect - which is exactly what I'm looking for in someone I'm going to spend 400+ pages with.
Up By Five (Erin Nicholas)
The last in the Counting on Love series. Not only was it great to catch up with the other characters and to see Connor get his happy ending, but Gabby was one of my favorite heroines of the series.
Do you have suggestions for my next reads? I'd love to hear them! Leave them in the comments, then get out of here and go congratulate Scarlett!
Congrats to Scarlett! That is exciting news. I just read some romance by my friend Marie Harte. She just had four books come out via Sourcebooks.
