Congratulations, D.G.!!
11/13 Done1. Wild- both stories take place in the mountains of Colorado during the winter
2. Riding Wild- read during my Christmas break because it was better to stay inside reading this one rather than be outside in the cold and rain
3. Make Mine Midnight- new year's eve themed
4. Ghouls, Ghouls, Ghouls- takes place right after a trip to Scotland where it is cold and is in a drafty castle in Ireland where it is cold and rainy.
5.A Werewolf in Manhattan: A Wild about You Novel- takes place in NY and Chicago during the winter, weres are kept warm with their warm fur coats, snow scenes in this book
6. The Seduction of Miranda Prosper- January release, this book left me cold, I don't recommend it
7. Seduce Me at Sunrise- story starts off in winter, my favorite read of January so far
8. Lust- winter release, I really enjoyed this one
9. His at Night- cover the color of flames... makes me think of fires on cold nights
10. Unveiled- blue always reminds me of cold temperatures
11. Simply Forbidden- winter release, read while I was snowed in... brrrrr
Thanks ladies!Already working on the books for Spring, LOL!
Great idea, DG. I think my challenge for All Things Spring is going to be Spring Cleaning and I'll do maybe 30 books... Print books that I already own. Maybe I'll "Clean up series" that I haven't finished yet, too.
I've been contemplating books as well for the spring challenge
Oh Spring Cleaning! Awesome awesome idea, Dhes! I think I'll do that too!
