Tracy O'Brien (tracyeobrien) | 387 comments Hi, I'm Tracy - I've been reading romance since my high school days, when I first picked up No Choice But Seduction at a drug store and was hooked instantly. I'm hoping to have more people to talk to about the piles of novels I keep tearing through.

Chris Winkler | 3 comments Hi my name is Chris and am a romance junkie. I live in Pennsylvania and all my children are grown giving me plenty of time to read my day away. I really love the romance series novels that combine the lives thought the story. I hate the little novellas and don't waste my time starting them. I much prefer a 500+ page novels. Looking forward to meeting everyone and finding more stories to take my day away.

Rachel (dothead) Hi, I'm Rachel and have just joined. I am a real kindle addict who love talking about books. I drive my family crazy! I'm mostly into romances which is why I joined this group. I am not sure of my way around here at the moment so I haven't participated in anything as yet but am already excited about discussing books, getting recommendations and entering some challenges.

Welcome to the group Maia! It's funny how we all stumble back to romance and reading... I had a huge break where I didn't like anything much that I read, but then I finally found the 'right' types of romances. I was stunned at how many great ones are out there :)

Kat Jones | 3 comments Hello!

I have only been reading for a couple of years because i convinced myself that i just couldn't have the patience to do it.... i now have around 50 books on my book shelf as well as Kindle on my tablet that i can not put down. i have also joined a couple of book clubs on facebook so that also adds to the collection each month!
My first book that kicked it all off for me was 'Bared to You' - Sylvia Day.
I'm glad i have found the book bug... :)
