Hi! Am Juhi(19) from India. I did not know thisgroup existed glad i found it atlast :DI am en engineering student currently doing my bachelor's in electronics. I started out reading very late books,i think at 16 when i first read the harry potter.. after that i read the twilight series and got obsessed with vampires so even read vampire diaries and then stumbled across argeanue series by lynsay sands i have been readin ever since.. :D
then I stumbled across some linda howard,s books in the local library and that is when I came to know all the fantastic authors .
u can say howard's books hooked me to romantic suspense so i started searchin for similar authors and thats when i found pamela clare. athough i have only read her i-team series but m lookin fwd to readin some of her historicals and would love if would tell me from where to start :p
My fav authors are
Linda Howard
Pamela Clare
Julia Garwood
Karen rose
Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Julie James
Jill Shalvis
and many more but these are the names that are coming to my mind right now
My Fav from I-Team series was the Unlawful contact. As of now, am looking forward to striking distance :D

Hi Juhi,
My initial impulse was to recommend the MacKinnon Rangers series (3 books have already been published and it is advisable that they are read in order, 'Surrender', 'Untamed', 'Defiant'), but being beguiled by the MacKinnon brothers (and riveted by the prince of darkness,Lord Wentworth -a future book in the series),has made me forget how good the Blakewell/Kenleigh books were. Had I just been introduced to the Pamela cosmos, I'd start with 'Sweet Release' and then move to 'Ride the Fire'. The latter is the story of Cassie and Alec's (the couple in 'Sweet Release')son. 'Unlawful Contact' is my favourite too of the great I-team series,one of the reasons for loving that book is Marc Hunter (this reader swoons, faints,conks and zonks and passes out), my favourite hero in the romance-suspense category.
How exciting to come to these books for the first time...me, I re-read them at least twice a year.

thank you for THE WELCOME!! :)
Hey there. My name's Bev, and I've been a fan of Pamela since I got her first book back in 2007. I now have all her books including the Mackinnons and the Blakewells, but my faves are the I-Team, and I know Pamela hasn't been well recently, but I can't wait for the new one 'Striking Distance' which has obviously been put back because of her health. Pamela rocks!!

Many thanks for the welcome ladies. I've been singing Pamela's praises on Amazon UK for some years now, am signed up to her newsletters, and have now joined this group. Woohoo!!

I have some news to share. Is this the right place to do it? DEFIANT is a RITA finalist! I got the call this morning. The RITA awards are the romantic fiction equivalent of the Oscars, so I'm very excited.
And that makes TWO RITA finals for the MacKinnon's Ranger series. SURRENDER finaled in 2013 but didn't win.
Keep your fingers crossed for me! :-)
Congratulation Pamela for being on the list. I wish you all the luck that you win. I love the MacKinnon's Ranger series! ;-)

Congratulations, Pamela. What a well-deserved acknowledgment!Since all your books are winners in my estimation, before even looking at your competition for the 2013 RITA for Historical Romance, it seemed you should be a shew in. But after seeing the competition -- wow -- it's stiff (in alphabetical order):
Lori Austin :: Beauty and the Bounty Hunter
Pamela Clare :: Defiant
Cara Elliott :: Too Dangerous to Desire
Anne Gracie :: Bride by Mistake
Sabrina Jeffries :: A Lady Never Surrenders
Jade Lee :: Wedded in Sin
Sarah MacLean :: A Rogue by Any Other Name
Monica McCarty :: The Recruit
Still. My money is on Defiant!
WOW! Congrats, Pamela! Good Luck!
Hey everyone! I've never read a Pamela Clare book, but I'm always excited about reading books by authors previously undiscovered to me. Where do I start?
Welcome, Guilia! Depends on whether you want historical or contemporary. Contemporary then I would start with Extreme Exposure. It gets even better after this one. For Historical Romance start with Surrender or Sweet Release. You can't go wrong with any of them!
I actually have have Surrender on my TBR list, (it's a huge pile lol) though I just added Sweet Release as well. I adore historicals. Haven't read any historicals really set in North America. Which would you recommend of the two?
Hey Pamela! Thank you for the invite! I know all of you girls are way better at this than I am! I'm sure I will love this group. Although right now I am off to gather supplies to make Bunny Cake Pops today! Happy Easter to all! & GOOD FRIDAY! ;)
OH, yummy! Be over shortly! lol
Yay! Thank you, Pamela for inviting me. Loved Double Exposure. I have several of her books on my TBR list including her I-team series and the Mackinnon Rangers. I haven't got to around to reading all of then yet.Argh! Wish I could just read the whole day, but sadly, work happens :(

Seriously, I want a job where someone pays me to stay home and read.
Yep! That would be awesome!
I can't wait to start this one I just bought. You'd think with all the books I have I'd have a reading order.
Well, I don't! Have a reading order, that is. My TBR mountain just keeps growing ☺
Mine too. It's reached nearly 500 books :O
I know! A few I have to take off though.

I agreee!!!
Now I'm just debating whether to read the second book or see if I can find Surrender somewhere.
Mod
All the books are great!
Giulia (My Devastating Reads) wrote: "Now I'm just debating whether to read the second book or see if I can find Surrender somewhere."Welcome Giulia!
Haven't read the book after Sweet Release but Surrender is fantastic!
Mod
I haven't read it yet. It's on my shelf, staring at me!
Wait til it starts screaming "READ ME!" lol
Mod
It is. People just don't understand that being a book worm is a full time job and we don't have time for "real" jobs.
Giulia~Bubbles wrote: "It is. People just don't understand that being a book worm is a full time job and we don't have time for "real" jobs."Yeah, really!
Hi everyone.I'm fairly new to the romance subgenres, thanks to the fact that many books have been so recently made accessible to those of us who are totally blind readers. I've always had a great love of historicals especially the western/prairie romances, and now I can add that I love anything to do with Scotland or Highlanders, romantic suspense, and paranormals. I'm reading everything I can, and loving it!
And please pardon any incorrect spellings of author or character names on my part. Since most of the books I read are spoken to me through a process called text-to-speech on my computer and mobile devices, I might not always get the spelling of names correct. Apologies in advance.
Some of my favorite authors are;
Pamela Clare
Diana Gabaldon
Suzanne Brockmann
Karen Marie Moning
Sarah Donati
J. R. Ward
Sarah Addison Allen
Cindy Gerrard
