Me too. I LOVE my romance. AB has enough that I think u'll be fine with it. Like I said before the stories have a way of sucking u into them that u don't worry so much about the romance. But there is romance and can legitimately be called romantic suspense.
I've found her to be a little heavier on the suspense but still include a pretty decent romance. I normally prefer more romance but she really sucks u into the story and u don't miss it. But there is definitely enough romance to be considered romantic suspense.
At Her Command by Marcia James contemporary (might be considered erotic but its hilarious)
Sex, Lies, and Online Dating by Rachel Gibson is another one
I'll have to get back to you when I remember more :)
Some of my faves are
Linda Howard
Sharon Sala/Dinah McCall
Allison Brennan
Shannon McKenna (hot/habenero)
Beverly Barton
Geralyn Dawson (she adds a lot of humor)
Lisa Marie Rice (hot/habenero)
Marliss Melton
U can attend college courses as ur military duty permits. During my last few months I was attending a tech school to prepare me when I got out.
IMHO I think just the 2 main characters. In the VR books adding the previous characters could get overwhelming. Unless maybe if there is an important secondary "romance" going on.
I'll try to list a few of mine.
1. Unlawful Contact
2. Pursuit
3. At Her Command mainly for the added humor.
4. Dark Heat
5. Deadly Games
6. Wild Card
7. Dangerous Secrets
I gave these only 2 stars so they weren't the bottom of the bucket but I still wasn't thrilled with them.
1. White Heat
2. Dangerous Games
I enjoy sharon sala/dinah mccall a lot. Her books don't always make me say WOW but they are consistant in keeping my interest. Even her worst isn't that bad. These are of course my opinions :) I haven't read Bad Penny yet but I did read the previous 2 in the series. Good series!
Merry Christmas! My family is not traveling at all this season. Tomorrow is supposed to be in the high 50s here.
Just read Wild Jinx and loved it. The ending has me curious but I don't want to say any spoilers here.
Moving Target and Chosen Prey are both romantic Suspense that I've read and enjoyed. I don't remember any rough sex or anything extreme in them. I do remember I liked the balance of suspense and romance they had.
I do like her books but I can see that her heroes and heroines could get on some nerves. She could cut the sex scenes a little and they would be a bit easier to read. I know I started skimming a bit during a few scenes when I had enough.
I read 2,3 & 4 and I have # 7 (I think) to read. I read a couple of her viking time travel books and they were all funny but I prefer the canjun for some reason. If I see any of her books at an UBS I'll grab em.
I read on her website that she writes each to stand on their own but has recurring characters. I've read a few of hers (the evil series) and they were stand alone and I did enjoy them. Let me know how the prison break series is... :)
