Thank you, Dee, I am aware of that rule. I was just informing her that the recommendation was not a good one for me.

Ahh.. It's okay. But I'm glad you are reading Seducing Cinderella, Kiss an Angel and Easy. I abso-fricking-lutely loved them all. Especially Easy. Actually I've re-read it like 4 times already. Even Seducing Cinderella I've read thrice. Planning on doing a re-read of Kiss an Angel.

Enjoy your reads!! I really hope you love at least one of them.

Easy I had to request from my local library, and it's coming interlibrary loan, but with this much advance notice, I should have it early on in February. Seducing Cinderella sounds really interesting to me, and I just picked up the third book in the series for $.99, so I'm looking forward to that one!

[LaurLa]

OHHH! I really wanted to participate and got so wrapped up in work this week I forgot to post... Is it too late to get added??

Thanks so much for all the wonderful picks. I'm going to try and finally read this month. I've been hearing such great things about it. I'm also going to see if I can order from the bookstore.

[Diane ~Firefly~]

Penney

I had fun looking through your shelves. We have a good amount in common, so I hope you like your picks.

Teddy Bear & warm/fuzzy: I have to recommend Fair Game by Patricia Briggs from your shelf as I love this series almost as much as Mercy's. If you are in the mood for something lighter, check out The Rocky Road to Romance, a cute love story that I've always had a soft spot for, and Bob the dog is awesome.



Chocolate & card: I was thrilled to find Maybe This Time by Jennifer Crusie on your shelf as she is one of my favorites. This book is a bit strange in that the H/h aren't in the same area for a majority of it and the ghosts are a bit creepy. If you want something a bit more otherworld, check out Heart Mate by Robin D. Owens - it takes place on another planet with cats as familiars and lots of intrigue. Or a bit on the lighter side is Flirting With Danger by Suzanne Enoch where we have a cat burglar heroine who saves our hero.



Romantic candlelight dinner with all the trimmings: I haven't read it, but Shades of Pearl by Arianne Richmonde definitely has jewelry on the cover. As does Destiny Kills by Keri Arthur (it is a ring in her hand) which starts off with one of the most intriguing paragraphs. Or you can go the food route with the lighter Fool for Love by Beth Ciotta which I really liked the idea behind the cupcake lovers group and enjoyed the small town antics.



Valentine's Day: Laura Kinsale's For My Lady's Heart has a romantic title and I've heard good things about the author. Or you can check out my favorite romance author Jayne Ann Krentz. It was hard to pick just one of her books, but I went with Shield's Lady which takes place on another planet and I just love the H/h interaction.

No problem. It's okay. I'm already having a hard time deciding what to read first. LOL.

[Daffodil]

Pam I loved looking through your shelves. I saw a lot of favorite authors and had to add a few of your books to my TBR. I hope you enjoy your picks, let me know if there are any problems.


♥Teddy Bear & warm/fuzzy - Suggest a book that left you with a warm/fuzzy feeling after reading it, a book that has an animal in it or on the cover (eg. teddy bear) or a book with a friends-to-lovers theme.

Unleashed by Cherrie Lynn -- I haven't read this one yet, but it looks good. And it has a friends to lovers theme.
Open Season by Linda Howard -- LH is one of my favorite comfort read authors and this book always gets a laugh from me.
Pride Mates by Jennifer Ashley -- I took a bit of liberty with the category; they're shifters not animals. I love all of Jennifer Ashley's series, including this one.

♥♥Chocolate & card - Pick a book that has a heart (Valentine's card) or candy/dessert on the cover. Or a book that includes a reunited couple - a second chance romance or one where the couple was separated for a long time because reunions are so sweet!

Wait for Me by Elisabeth Naughton -- This is one of the books I had to add to my shelves from your TBR. In fact, it looked so good, I've already added my name to the hold list at the library.
Twelve Days by Teresa Hill -- I know it's the wrong month for a Christmas themed book, but this is a wonderful story of a married couple rediscovering their love for each other.

♥♥♥Romantic candlelight dinner with all the trimmings - Recommend a book with jewelry, flowers or candles on the cover or a book with a food theme.

Hot in Here by Sophie Renwick -- I've not read anything by this author yet, but this one looks interesting.
Pies and Prejudice by Ellery Adams -- Ella's gift/talent is interesting and I've really enjoyed the first two books in this paranormal mystery series.

♥♥♥♥Valentine's Day - Pick a book about Valentine's Day, one of your favorite & highly rated romance books, a book with a romantic cover or a book with a romantic sounding title.

Caressed By Ice by Nalini Singh -- This is one of my favorite paranormal romance series and this is one of the best books in it.
Tiger Eye by Marjorie Liu -- Another paranormal romance series. I've enjoyed the first two books in this series.

Elizabeth~~Here are your picks. I hope you find something you'll enjoy!

♥Teddy Bear & warm/fuzzy
*Rumor Has It by Jill Shalvis (TBR) I haven't read this book yet, but have read others in the series and enjoyed them and really like the author. Plus it has puppies on the cover!
*Fix You by Mari Carr (New) This is a friends to lovers theme and I really enjoyed it. The hero and heroine have been friends together forever, but become more when the heroine is diagnosed with breast cancer.

♥♥Chocolate & card
*Crossing the Line by Kele Moon (TBR) The story deals with a second chance love story and reunited lovers. I haven't read this one, but I have read the first one and enjoyed it.
*Seduce Me at Sunrise by Lisa Kleypas (New) Deals with reunited friends.

♥♥♥Romantic candlelight dinner with all the trimmings

*Texas Glory by Lorraine Heath (New) This is one of my all time favorites by Lorraine Heath. You read the first and enjoyed it, so I'm recommending the second one.

♥♥♥♥Valentine's Day
* All He Ever Desiredby Shannon Stacey (TBR) The title and cover sounds and looks romantic.
*Love Is Blind by Lynsay Sands(New) -This is a light hearted historical.
*Samson's Lovely Mortal by Tina Folsom (New)-This is first in a vampire series I enjoy. The story can be a little corny, but I enjoyed it. It is also free on Amazon.
