Hay Sam,
This is anukriti, I am also very much found of paranomical romance, I read twilight sagaTwilight, aganeu series byLynsay Sands which is my favorite because in this u found the touch of romance, action, houmer, and with the special touch of loving family bounding they all have, so if any one ever like to see the life of vampiers, and really don't want the lifeless dead creeps with no heartbeat that's the one we want then.
And for the shape shifter one I personal admire Hunger Untamed byPamela Palmer series of farel warriors, it always be a full to read it with lots of action, flow of emotions and lots of intimate romance,
I really hope u enjoy it

LMAO! I luv you, you're too much. Haha! Can't help it's the only child thing. (Only child = only child syndrome = does not share well w/others) Heehee. This is definitely true where my man Adam is concerned. Lol. I miss you too and will definitely give ya a holler when I'm next in your area. You going to do the Memorial Day challenge? I'm doing it this month. I'll post the link below in case you wanna join in(I'm post #12 in case you look for my list on there). Am reading some new books and added a lot to my "to-read" list. If you see anything on it (in addition to what's on my "read" list) you like message me and let me know. I've already gotten a lot of the books on the list & they're just waiting for me to have time to read them. (As always, I'm more than happy to share with ya) ;) Take care and we'll gab soon!!!

Thanks Keri. I haven't done and don't know how the challenges work. I don't think I'd be good at it bc my reading depends on my library and the latest advice from my GR friends. You take care too.Welcome newbies...didn't I mentioned you'll meet lots of nice friends?
Crazy4more wrote: "Thanks Keri. I haven't done and don't know how the challenges work. I don't think I'd be good at it bc my reading depends on my library and the latest advice from my GR friends. You take care too..."I remember you telling me you use the library. However, I think I can more than cover ya in books if you want to participate. I literally have hundreds & since you're a friend of mine, am more than willing to share. Check the link out. It's easy. You just pick a book for a category listed on the challenge (you don't have to do each category, just one, or more than one if you prefer. I'm a fast reader so I always do one book for each category). You begin reading on May 1st for the challenge and have until the end of May to finish it.
I don't want you to not participate just because of book availablity. I've got ya covered on that one. You just let me know what ya need if you can't get it. Not tryin to push you into it, but plz don't not do it b/c of book availabilty at the library. Like I said, I can take care of that easily enough. I also have dozens of books that I have which aren't listed on my GR list, there's just too many of them for me to want to take time to list them also.
Lol, I still remember how stoked you were when I sent you Shadowfever! That really blessed me to see how happy it made you. ;) GREAT series!!!! Lookin forward to the next one KMM's workin on set in the Fever world. ;p hmmmmmmmmmm think Adam Black (sighs wistfully) will make another debut, this one hopefully much much longer? (wiggles eyebrows up and down) ;p
Thanks Keri so much for the offer. I was out of my skin for SHADOWFEVER. I'll chat with you via email when I'm ready.
Lol, I know you were. I had more fun from your reaction when you received the book than I did from reading the series and that's saying a heck of a LOT let me tell ya ;p Certainly made me smile ;)Sounds good though. Has anyone heard what KMM is naming the next series set in the Feverworld or when the first book will be released?
Greetings everyone!!!I'm so excited to announce that after hours editing and creating cover designs (back & binding) and formatting...LOVE BLEEDS is currently being printed into my ARC in paperback!!! I can hardly believe it--finally!!!
Which means....it will be available for purchase very, very soon!! I'll keep you all posted :-)

Keri, good question, maybe the KMM group might know. I had the feeling there's got to be more but no confirmation from anyone. The making of Barrons and his team is to die for. I'm sure you will keep me posted and vice-versa. Take care.
Welcome newbies, GR is so great!
Hi! I'm Aimee ... a romantic at heart (with a serious bent toward the paranormal — but NOT vamps — can you believe it?). I'm southern transplant with a bit of the accent (but not a whole bunch). With an MBA and a degree in Applied Mathematics, there’s absolutely no reason I should be writing romance novels (especially ones with people who defy the laws of logic). Then again, I shouldn't need a calculator to add two numbers, either ... but I really, really, really, do. Tada! That's me in a nutshell (or a nut out of her shell — one of the two).

Hi everyone! I'm Kris and I'm addicted to Paranormal Romance! I'm a bookworm all around but these kind of books are my absolute favorite! If the books has Vampires in it...I'm TOTALLY reading it! :) I look forward to getting great tips on new books and making new friends :)
Thanks, Bobbie. My children sure did make me feel like a mother this morning. NO SLEEP-INs. LOL As my 3 year old stood on my bed saying "Wake up it's morning time". LOL
Hi everyone, I'm Lauren and I'm relatively new to paranormal romances. I have begun a few but my favorites so far are Midnight Breeds by Lara Adrian and Darkness Chosen by Christina Dodd. I look forward to discussing books with you all.
Hi, all. My name author name's J. A. Belfield, but I'm Julie to those who know me. I'm from Solihull in the UK, and I'm a lover of paranormal romance--both from a readers and an author's perspective. It's great to find groups on here with so many people with similar interests. Although I've been around Goodreads for a good few weeks now, it's taking me a while to find my bearings. I'm getting there now, though :)

I actually just love the fact that I can get recommendations and see all of the reviews here for books that I was thinking about.

Hey there! :D My name is Jessica. The first paranormal(well vampire/wolf paranormal) book I read was Twilight.. I liked it at first but now i just hate it... Not trying to offend anyone who likes it :S... I read the first 3 of the series but then i started reading the last one and it was too boring so I never finished it. And that was in 2007 or 2008...
After Twilight I thought this genre was crap so I stopped reading it. But last year in 2010 my friend showed me the 'Vampire Academy' series and O.M.G I loved it.. and after that I started reading HEAPS of paranormal book :D..
yea... anyway if you don't remember the names Jessica (or Jess, dont mind). I'm from Australia..
I've been on goodreads for a few months but i could never find any good groups.
Sorry for writing alot x| LOL :]

Hi, I'm new to GR, but am a *long* time romance reader. I just finished a reading jag of PNR and loved Dragon Bound by Thea Harrison. I realized I have to cleanse the palate a bit with some historical and contemporary, so I don't overdose :D
Hello, joined recently and just wanted to say how happy I am to find others so into PNR. Not that I'm super cheesy, but being on here is like comin home! :)
Danielle wrote: "Hello, joined recently and just wanted to say how happy I am to find others so into PNR. Not that I'm super cheesy, but being on here is like comin home! :)"Haha... I totally know what you mean :)
This seems like a great dark kingdom for me, especially since there is a Game of Thrones section!!!I am the author of 'Stargazer', a dystopian vampire epic, as well as 'Voices of Gnosticism', a scholarly book on the Gnostics and other ancient heretics. I am also the host of Aeon Byte Gnostic Radio, a popular webcast dealing with all things occult and forbidden and wondrous.
I'm a huge fantasy and science fiction fan, as well as a lay scholar on mythology, the esoteric, and comparative religion. Where fiction and heresy meet is where spiritual and mental liberation detonate and we become boundless!
Other than that, I'm not much into colorful, Dionysian language.

Hi everyone! I'm Sylvie and I'm from the San Francisco Bay Area. I've been crazy about vampires ever since I first saw Barnabas Collins get busy with the fangs! How many years ago? Too many to count!Now, be it movies, TV or books, if it has fangs I'm there. Especially books. A few of my favorite authors are Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, P.N. Elrod, Tanya Huff, J.R. Ward, Charlaine Harris, Jeaniene Frost, Christine Feehan, Lynsay Sands, Kerrelyn Sparks, Alexandra Ivy, Lara Adrian, Adrian Phoenix, D.B. Reynolds, Marta Acosta, as well as lots of others. I'm always looking out for my next favorite read, so I look forward to lots of good book discussions!
Hi, Sylvie. Good to have you here! I'll confess I'm more of a wolf girl myself, but I still enjoy some vampire literature. I read one of Alexandra Ivy's a few months back, something to do with the phoenix and a vampire called Dante (????). It was a hoot. :)
Hi J.A! That was the first of her Guardians of Eternity series. The next ones are even better. Viper & Styx...Yum!

I really enjoyed reading them. All the books are out too so you don't have to worry about any cliffhangers. ;)
I've heard of Keri Arthur but haven't read anything by her yet. She sounds interesting though, I'll look for her books!
Hi all..I thought I did this already, but I guess not! !LOL! My name is Jennifer, I live in Northern Maine with my husband, my daughter, 19, my son, 11 and my triplets (two boys and a girl) who will be 8 next month. I love to read and about 6 months ago read the Fever series, now I am hooked. I am in college full time and work part time so I probably dont read as fast as you all, but I try to cram some in daily!! Nice to be here!!
Hi Everyone!! I'm Heather and I live in Virginia. I am married to my 1st true love. You know the one from middle school that just starts the roller coaster of boy crazyness. The bad boy at heart. I am a mother of four beautiful girls. I love to read. I have and always will be sucked into the world paranormal romance. So excited to join those that are at home on the dark side. lol

Here's how I'm jugling so many series, I'm a fast reader and have a long list of books on hold at the library so I end up reading whichever book in each series comes available lol. Plus I have a 5 yr old who rarely sleeps (has sleep apnea) so I end up staying up with him till wee hours of the morning. so I get a lot of reading done that way.
Has anyone read "Vampires Rule" by K.C. Blake? It's an awesome series!

Well that will do it ;) I'm sorry to here about your baby... I know you said he? she? is five, but their our babies no matter what age, right? I've had my kindle for so long I forgot about libraries and having to wait until books are available.
