Hi Mary-Megan!
Here are your picks for August! If you're anything like me, you've got a long list of books to read. I tried to keep it to only two each, but there were some I just couldn't pass up recommending! Hope you find some goodies in here to enjoy!

1. ✱Recommend a book that has a Moon, Sun, Earth or ‘something’ circular on the cover or a cover that is ‘very dark’.
TBR: Moondance Beach - Moon on cover. I actually have this series on my TBR list...
NEW: Worth the Fall - do killer pecs count as circular? Well I’m counting them. There’s also circular lighting in the BG for those ‘rules sticklers’ out there. Despite the swoon-worthy cover, this is a really good book.


2. ✱Recommend an historical romance or a YA genre book.
TBR: The Heiress Effect - (Historical) Possibly my favorite of the whole Brothers Sinister series. I looove Oliver’s character and I adore Jane’s personality. A MUST read!
NEW: The Perils of Pleasure - (Historical) I recently finished this 11-book series called Pennyroyal Green. Absolutely LOVED it! Not all the books were my tops, but most of them were. It deviates from the tiny town of Pennyroyal Green, but everything comes back to that town and revolves around two leading families there. This one starts with a POW as it begins with one of them is about to be hanged. There suspense, action (ahem nookie), romance, mystery and lots of good dialog and familial relationships.
NEW: Again the Magic - (Another historical) I saw you read and loved Lisa Kleypas’ Friday Harbor series (I love them too!) This is another epic series she wrote, though it’s historical. It starts with this one and packs a whopper of emotion into it!


3. ✱Recommend a book that has the person on the cover wearing eye glasses or anything else on their head OR where MC is a ‘protector’ ie military or ‘alpha-like’ character.
TBR: Extreme Honor - (protector) Yum yum cover! 
NEW: Santerra's Sin: A Loveswept Classic Romance - (H- i.e. Mr. Abs - is a protector in a super-secret operative branch of the military) This is an older series (1996), republished in 2012. First of all… can we all just pause and stare at that cover? **sigh** huh? What? Oh, right, the recommendation. Yeah, just check out my review here (ignoring the 90's era mullet) and give it a try! 


4. ✱Recommend a book where the cover depicts something found in nature, a bird on the cover, or the word ‘night’ or ‘shadow’ in the title or series name. A suspense will work too!
TBR: First Star I See Tonight - (night and stars count as nature) On my TBR list too!
NEW: A Knight in Shining Armor - (night and nature) Saw you had this one in your to-read list and I suggest bumping it up. Hands down one of my favorites, which says a lot because I generally avoid time-travel novels.
NEW: A Night to Surrender - (night) Well I HAD to recommend two here… LOVE this series and am still reading it! Set in a small town called Spindle Cove and great characters common to most all of Tessa Dare’s books, IMHO.


5. ✱Recommend a book that has at least 60,000 ratings or a book that’s been made or that you think should be made in to a movie/tv for viewing.
TBR: The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer - 127,803 ratings – Good grief! Clearly I’ve missed something here!
NEW: Archer's Voice - NEEDS to be a movie… (with Charlie Hunnam as Archer... *drool*) Despite the cover, this is a powerfully emotional story set in a small town in Maine... It’s also perilously close to 60K ratings!


6. ✱Recommend a book where a MC is a musician, cowboy or super sexy OR the main setting is in the USA, personal bonus if it’s set in ‘Tennessee.'
TBR: Part Time Cowboy - Cowboy... duh... LOL
NEW: Secrets of Bella Terra - (Set in US – northern CA, super sexy brothers) Good mystery and romance and suspense!
NEW: The One In My Heart - (Set in US - east coast) This one was a surprise! I thought I'd only 'like' it, but turns out it got me good. Some good surprises and an excellent love story.


7.✱ Recommend a book with a car or road on the cover or a story that has a ‘road trip’ (any sort of journey for the character or reader) or ‘storm’ (stormy relationships or characters count!) that takes place somewhere in the story.
TBR: This Heart of Mine - Road on cover
NEW: Dirty - (journey, stormy relationship) I just read this for June as a recommendation (My Review ). It is definitely stormy and the MC has a LONG hard road outta her own personal hell and the H and h have a definite stormy relationship. Caution: It’s intense! There’s some serious nookie here, esp in the beginning. It also deals with real life relationship and family issues along with the human tendency to shut out help and hide behind complacency and daily life. The MC does that even to you as the reader. A very good book and worth the read, but don’t look at it like it’ll be an HEA…


8. ✱Recommend a book that has the letters N-A-S-A (A does not need to appear twice) somewhere in the title OR in tribute to ‘life beyond’ a book genre that’s paranormal or fantasy.
TBR: Blood of Saints - N-A-S
NEW: Romancing the Duke (Castles Ever After Series) - N-A-S-A and one of the characters writes fantasy stories. Another historical (sorry, it’s my forte), but this one… this will refresh your belief in love, in the power of kindness and optimism and in happily ever after!


Happy reading!

Hi Sonja!! I'm so glad I get to pick for you this round, your picks for me in the past were amazing and I'm excited to return the favor :D Hope you find something amazing!!

1. ✱Recommend a book that has a Moon, Sun, Earth or ‘something’ circular on the cover or a cover that is ‘very dark’.
TBR: A Spell of Trouble - I recently read a freebie in another series by this author. I wish I'd picked up this series! The cover is so freakin' cute!
New: A Discovery of Witches - I put off reading this for so long because so many people called it Twilight for adults. It's not. It is way longer than it needs to be and has virginal characters but it's such a great story and so much fun to read.


2. ✱Recommend an historical romance or a YA genre book.
TBR: Any Duchess Will Do - Looooovvee everything I've read by Tessa Dare <3
New: The Perfect Rake - Adorable, hilarious, really great HR.


3. ✱Recommend a book that has the person on the cover wearing eye glasses or anything else on their head OR where MC is a ‘protector’ ie military or ‘alpha-like’ character.
TBR: Into the Fury - Ohhh! This sounds great! I'm working on this author's Raines of Wind Canyon series but might need to pick this book up soon...
New: The Lion's Lady - Julie Garwood writes such unique HR story lines and characters.


4. ✱Recommend a book where the cover depicts something found in nature, a bird on the cover, or the word ‘night’ or ‘shadow’ in the title or series name. A suspense will work too!
TBR: The Lion's Daughter - GR has been recommending this to me for AGES. Hope it's good :P
New: Written in Red - My favorite. So freakin' amazing and perfect. Super slow burn romance but uggghhh.


5. ✱Recommend a book that has at least 60,000 ratings or a book that’s been made or that you think should be made in to a movie/tv for viewing.
TBR: The Edge of Never - A little predictable but a guilty pleasure read for me, super sweet story.
New: Darkhouse - Addictive! So addictive! NA about two people who have a ghost hunting web series.


6. ✱Recommend a book where a MC is a musician, cowboy or super sexy OR the main setting is in the USA, personal bonus if it’s set in ‘Tennessee.'
TBR: Listen to Me - I haven't tried this series but it seems really popular and her Love Under the Big Sky series is one I enjoy.
New: First Grave on the Right - Goofy but dark at times, this series is really great! I'm not crazy about the romance aspect in the first book but Charley and Cookie are my idols ;) I think her writing is similar to Molly Harper.


7. ✱ Recommend a book with a car or road on the cover or a story that has a ‘road trip’ (any sort of journey for the character or reader) or ‘storm’ (stormy relationships or characters count!) that takes place somewhere in the story.
TBR: One Foot in the Grave - This was one of the first UF series I read. So good!!

**SQUEEEEE** SO super excited, when I saw you were picking for me, Kait! THank you for all these! Some of them have been waiting months for me to get to them!

I'm actually reading Into the Fury now, so can we switch that one to the second one Into the Whirlwind? I'm already pretty sure I'm gonna want to read that one too... LOL

and with a cover like that....

And I've already got holds on A Discovery of Witches, The Perfect Rake, The Lion's Lady, Written in Red, Listen to Me, First Grave on the Right and A Promise of Fire...
and picked up The Lion's Daughter and The Edge of Never and The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie since they were available via eBook.
I had several of these on my To-Read shelf through my library and a couple already on hold or in my shelf.

Perhaps it would have been better to tell you the ones I couldn't put holds on.... HA!
How am I EVER going to read all these in one month and with a vacation coming up? LOL

[Nancy H]

Hi Carrie,
Here are your picks. You have a lot of really wonderful books awaiting you on your TBR list! It was hard to find ones that I like that you don't already have on your list, so if you don't see anything here you like, please let me know and I will pick some more for you. You definitely have some 'good reads' coming up.

Moon, Sun, Earth: The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big Round Things - I really liked this one! The Sun, the Moon, and Maybe the Trains

Historical or YA: Something Wonderful - Historical - I just read this and LOVED it! It is an older book, but so good. YA - When Dimple Met Rishi - another one I just finished and LOVED!

Military/Protector:Stranded with the SEAL and What I Love About You

Something found in nature: Bees - The Secret Life of Bees and Beach - The New Mrs D - Both of these are really good.

Movie/TV or 60,000 ratings: Twenties Girl - over 60,000 ratings; One for the Money - I think this series should definitely be done for TV and/or movies. It is funny and good and would be a hoot.

Musician/cowboy: Rock Chick and The Cowboy's Mail Order Bride - Both really good

Storm: Stormy relationship - A Night to Surrender ; a real storm plus several relationships - Sunset Bridge

Paranormal or NASA in title: The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie - NASA letters in title (also really good book); Shadow of Night - paranormal in this one, and I see that you read the first in this trilogy

Happy Reading!

Thank you, Stacie. These look great! I can't wait to get started but it will be hard to choose which one to start with! Happy reading to you this month, too!

[Diane ~Firefly~]

Leigh,

You have some great books on your TBR, so I hope you like these picks.

1. I read the first in this series (and the spin off with Miss Frost) and liked it - The Werewolf Meets His Match by Kristen Painter. Or check out this paranormal cozy where Stacy tries to deny her witchcraft heritage in Opal Fire by Barbra Annino.



2. We have a good YA book with Paranormalcy by Kiersten White or check out a fun historical romance with Romancing the Duke by Tessa Dare.



3. I really liked Abby and the whole psychic thing worked pretty well in Abby Cooper, Psychic Eye by Victoria Laurie. Or check out Harper who wants to protect people but needs help from a former vampire hunter in Semi-Charmed by Isabel Jordan



4. Continue the great series by Ilona Andrews with Fate's Edge. A widowed woman's daughters sign her up for a local cooking show and she ends up being partnered with an angry professional chef in the sweet romance A Taste of Heaven by Penny Watson



5. Wow, it is hard to find books with 60k ratings, so I went with ones I thought would make good movies. Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein is a lot of fun as some kids get stuck in the coolest library ever trying to solve a mystery. I think Summon the Keeper by Tanya Huff would be an interesting TV series with the mix of humor and urban fantasy. Claire is "summoned" to a guesthouse and gets plenty of interesting visitors while dealing with a noisy hole to hell in the basement.



6. Metro Girl by Janet Evanovich is set in Florida and is a fun romp. Or check out the amazing Lick by Kylie Scott where Ev wakes up in Vegas hungover and married to a famous guitarist.



7. I also have Midnight Crossroad by Charlaine Harris on my TBR and am looking forward to the TV show. I loved Shifting Dreams by Elizabeth Hunter where a town started by shape-shifters hires an outside sheriff and doesn't want to tell him the secret. I love the family vibe of this one.



8. Jacob by Jacquelyn Frank has a very different take on demons that I really enjoyed. Or see a recently divorced single-mother learn her mother is Diana and she needs to help save the human race in Huntress by Nicole Hamlett.

This one looks like it might be a little out of your wheelhouse, but I thought I'd give it a shot. It's NA m/m, and one of the guys is asexual. Lots of emotion, but nothing that most allosexuals (people who experience sexual attraction) would consider sex.

Hi Suzanne!! I know you get this a lot, but, you're TBR is huge! It's hard to filter through all that to find books, but I ended up using compare books and used our books in common for your TBR books. It's really really hard to find NEW books for you, but I did manage to find a few that weren't on your shelves. Hope you find something you like this month! Let me know if you need any re-picks :-D

1. A solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes in front of the Sun and casts a shadow across the Earth.
