Picks from Diane~Firefly
Completed

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.

Completed:





1. Recommend a Long book
TBR: Wildest Dreams- the 2nd book in this series is actually my favorite (heavily influenced by Game of Thrones), but this is a great KA version of fantasy, too. :D
TBR: Years - because you need to read this!
Recommend a Short book
TBR: Until Fountain Bridge - great to get back into the series. Not sure I was a fan of the flashbacks, but at least you can move on to book 2, which is TO DIE FOR.
NEW: Glow/Shimmer - READ THESE. freebies on her website.
Recommend an author your pickee has never read before.
TBR: Friend-Zoned - recent read and a delightful treat
NEW: Heartless - Mary Balogh is my most read author - and this one is different is a LOT of ways from the normal historical. It's Georgian, the hero is absolutely metro but still supremely alpha, and the heroine is not...pure.
NEW: Shine Not Burn - fluffy and entertaining
Recommend a book by one of your pickee's favorite authors.
TBR: The Dream Hunter - cuz we love LK
NEW: Angels' Dance - Galen & Jessamine's short story in this anthology is worth it.
Recommend a book by one of your favorite authors.
TBR: Shades of Gray - Maya Banks - the kellys! lurve.
NEW: Midnight Rainbow - LOVE this. LOVE. I want to have its babies.
NEW: Unholy Ghosts - there is 1 book and 1 series I absolutely love that I rarely rec because of their questionable content and questionable reception. Only VERY SPECIAL PEEPS get these recs. The book you've already read (Willing Victim), the series is this one. Stick with this series. You will be rewarded.
Recommend a new release
TBR:Night Broken - oooh buddy read?
NEW: The Will - maybe another BR!
Recommend a book that has been on your pickee's TBR over a year.
TBR: Beauty
TBR: Trapped - Oberon!
Recommend a book with a cover that grabbed your attention.
TBR: Joe - if the author did to this book what she did to the Alexa Montgomery series, I wouldn't know whether to cry or rage. but the cover is fascinating. :)
NEW: Shatter Me - interesting, YA, dystopian, read - do not listen.

Something Old:
The Gamble - LaVyrle Spencer – I know you have 2 other books by her on your shelf – this is by far one of my favorites and I’ve replaced it many times
He's So Shy – on your shelf since 2010
Something New:
Sixth Grave on the Edge - coming out this week, can't get much newer than that ;)
High-heeled Wonder - new to you author - I liked the mix of mystery and romance (plus, I think its 99 cents on Amazon right now)
Southern Fried Blues – another new to you author, cute contemporary military romance (and I’m very picky about my military romances) - this was also 99 cents on amazon the other day (not sure if it still is)
Something Borrowed:
Rumor Has It – someone (although I can’t remember who…haha) recommended this to me for PIFM a few months ago – 4th in the series and enjoyable
Twenty-Eight and a Half Wishes – I was recommended a couple of PIFM ago – I immediately added the rest of the series to the TBR pile (although I haven’t gotten to them yet)
Something Blue:
The Duchess War – I haven’t met a Courtney Milan book I’ve disliked yet (TBR)
A Night Like This – you gave the first one in the quartet 3 stars, but I enjoyed the 2nd one much more
Crazy Little Thing Called Love – Molly Cannon – quite a bit of blue on the cover

Authors we are Thankful For
TBR: The Will by Kristen Ashley
You have read a few books already by her, but this is first in a new series. My absolute favorite author and I am thankful to her for getting me back into reading a few years ago.
New:Undeniable by Madeline Sheehan
Not sure if you'll like this one or not...didn't see too many biker books on your list, and this one is pretty gritty/raw/rough. I've read all of the series and can honestly feel the words she has written! A book that may be a little more up your alley by the same author is The Soul Mate...I just read it recently and liked it (more paranormal/fantasy/vampire/dystopia type).
Books We Are thankful For
TBR: A Beautiful Lie by T.E. Sivec
You've read some of her humor/comedy books (Tara Sivec) but I see you have a few of her drama/suspense books on your list. This was the first book I read by her and enjoyed it, and was glad to find her humor books that make me laugh my butt off!
New: What I Didn't Say by Keary Taylor
This one was a real tear jerker for me...maybe it was some things I had going on in real life that made it so, but still! It's definitely on YA level of romance but I enjoyed the story.
Books We Are Grateful Were Recommended to you
TBR: The King by J.R. Ward
A friend recommended the BDB books to me years ago...I finally, just this year, read them all...nearly back to back! You've read 1-11, so it's time for #12!
New: When It Rains by Lisa De Jong
I saw this book on a book blog and kept seeing how touching it was and have a tissue handy....that definitely held true to me. Loved it. I just saw that were some follow up books in the series so I picked them up!
Series You Can't Get Enough Of
TBR: The Saint by Tiffany Reisz
I LOVE MISTRESS NORA & SOREN & KINGSLEY!!!! You could also read Scars and Stripes but it's so short that you may as well read the entire series 1-5 of The Last Good Knight!
New: Kaleb by Nicole Edwards
It doesn't look like you've read any of her books, but this one was on your list...so not really "new" to you but kind of! I love her books...both her Alluring Indulgence and Club Destiny series are pretty spicy/racy! I've read nearly all her books and enjoy the style/flow of them...nice easy quick reads.

Awesome Picks From KarenH
1. Lose Weight: Here are three of the longer titles from your PIFM shelf…I haven’t read any of them, but figured I was safe since they’re on that shelf! The Wise Man's Fear, Killing Floor, or Rock Chick Rescue.
2. Get in Shape: Out Of Her League is about an Olympic softball player – first book in the series, not my favorite of the series, but still enjoyable. OR Slow Ride – on your wishlist rather than your PIFM shelf, I love this series!
3. Save Money: Several choices here…The Governess Affair from your PIFM shelf is an Amazon freebie. New to you, Beauty Touched the Beast is also free at Amazon right now, or a couple that are lendable at Amazon: Sidecar, which I have and would be happy to loan you, or Shaken (absolutely amazing story)…I don’t have this one available to lend, but I know someone who does if you would like to borrow it.
4. Eat Better: From your shelf, Irresistible, or new to you, A Taste of Love…both enjoyable love stories set in the restaurant business.
5. Travel: You don’t have your location listed, so I had to go with mine, and picked 2 books set in different countries, neither of them the US: From your shelf, Untamed (set in Scotland), or new to you, Guarding Suzannah (set in Canada)
6. Spend Time with Family and Friends: From you shelf, From This Moment On. OR, you’ve started the Kowalski series, but never moved past the first book…how about continuing with Undeniably Yours?
7. Enjoy Life More: Christmas with Danny Fit – I just finished this a couple of weeks ago, and loved it! And one that I read farther back, but definitely deserves is Surrender. I’ll be listening to Surrender next month now that it’s been released in audio with the wonderful Kaleo Griffith narrating, if you’re interested in a buddy read.
8. Get Organized: A couple of books from your PIFM shelf that I thoroughly enjoyed and that have been on your TBR for over 2 years are Hotter Than Wildfire and Mr. Perfect.
