Thanks you guys, yall made me feel better about it!Congratulations to everyone who read, and thank you Debbie, for making things run smoothly.
And Autumn, my super awesome picker. =]
Oh, and Ritu, like everyone here said, they probably ran out of time. I'm just glad I got to enjoy the challenge, it definitely ruined me because now I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have this! *sigh*

GigiSo, I finished The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie yesterday. Probably doesn't count for the challenge but just wanted to let you know that...
I LOVED IT! Thanks for your recommendation! It was a daring romance with a refreshing take. I love Ian, and suspect I will love all the other brothers as well. I got my copy from the library will will have to invest in getting my own because I know this is one I'll want to read over and over again. Swoon.
Welcome, I had so much fun doing it - unfortunately my own tbr grew way tooooooo much looking at all these great recs. I am glad it went so well, with this amount of participants I was worried but everyone was so great. I was so glad that so many of the new / first timers enjoyed it and joined in for next month, Tania has the matches and the re-matches done, but if you missed it there will be another sign-up for Junes Pick-It-For-Me in a couple of weeks.

Yayyyyy!! I'm sooo excited that you read it! I can't wait to read about the other brothers as well. That is the one thing that I LOVED about the book was the refreshing perspective. Ian was absolutely adorable!
Ps. I'm still reading The Black Lyon. LOL
Hey wow Debbie - great list and the covers look 'mag' (as Mavis Freestone from the In Death series would say!)...

This is my late follow up ... I only had a chance to read 1 book and that was "Wicked Lovely". Thank you for the selection and I enjoyed it, so much so that I want to finish reading the series! I still want to read the other selections and make good on my promise. Thank you for selecting these books for me!
