Feel free to check out my stalkerific hero shelf. You might like some of the guys on there, Tina.



The first book that I have read by her was All The Queens Men and John Medina stood out to me. I've read another book by her, but I can't think of the name of it right now. The hero's name is Grant. He was no John Medina.

Alrighty then. I'll have to go have a look see. :)

Sweet T I started reading her with her Silhouette books. I haven't read that many of her single titles, but I definitely loved Cry No More. I'm looking forward to reading Death Angel and Kiss Me While I Sleep. I like the assassin/spy stuff a lot. Also I heard Cover of Night has a great hero who's shy but totally kickass. I've also heard, Up Close and Dangerous has a lot of action. I'll be slowly going through her Mainstream books after a long time away from her.

Only if you want to, NU. I like her dangerous guys, so I'm there. And they're not too kinky for me.

Was that Midnight Rainbow Arch? I remember you reviewed that one, or maybe Diamond Bay. I know I have it. I have been collecting most of her books lately that I don't have already. I'll probably avoid To Die for and Drop Dead Gorgeous because I've heard Blair is the cheerleader type (sorry but not favorite kind of heroine). Maybe I'll read those later on.

You are welcome Danielle. I will read Diamond Bay soon.

I loved Son of the Morning. Actually Milla reminds me a lot of Grace St. John in that book.
Also, Death Angel rocked. Hard. It is really a divisive book amongst romance novel readers because some purists take a hard line over the heroine, Drea. She starts out the book as a gangster/drug dealer's girlfriend who is content to be his girlfriend and spend his money. Words like "whore" and "prostitute" get thrown around a lot when this book gets discussed online. Me, I didn't see Drea that way at all. I loved her and the hero Simon is the embodiment of ScarySexyCool!
I'm excited to read Death Angel. It sounds like some of the action movies I love. I think it's cool that Howard went for an atypical heroine for that book. Apparently Simon is an unrepentant assassin, so he can hardly try to get high moral ground. I have a feeling I'll like Simon from what I've heard, 'cause you know me and ScarySexyCool.

I'm with you...I loved Death Angel. I liked that Drea wasn't perfect, yet she was still a good person at heart. I could easily see this book as a movie.

Thanks for all the Linda Howard recs. I've added them all to my reminder list on PBS. Right now, I've got to whittle down my TBR pile before I buy more books LOL."
I haven't bought a book in almost a month.

Wow, Arch. That's pretty good. I certainly can't say that.
Sweet T it sounds like you have plenty to keep your occupied. :)

Danielle, only because my car is down. That's why I have been to the library in a while.

I'm getting to work, yes. Hopefully, I should get to the library Tuesday, after my doctor's appointment.

I do know one thing though, I will burn rubber to the library, whenever it gets fix.

I didn't have a car my first year of vet school, and it had a few challenges. Thankfully I had a few friends that would give rides when I needed them. And I had my bicycle.

I need to get a bike. I wanted to buy one this summer to go bike riding in the neighborhood.

Only on the bookcovers. Real cowboys that I've seen don't run around barechested. And they usually don't have those hot bodies. I might be hanging out in the wrong places, though.

You might have to go to one of those photo shoots.

I think that's my best chance. Cowboys don't fall off every tree around here like they make it seem in the books.
