message 1: by Gwennie (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) This month is Erotic Romance!

Here is a listopia to help guide you if you're not sure what types of books to nominate.

http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/32...

And as usual, the rules for nomintions are as follows:

1. Please make sure your nomination meets our monthly Genre: Erotic Romance (See list)
2. One nomination per person
3. Book must be available in both print and ebook form, and available worldwide.
4. If nominating a book in a series, the book must be the first book and not one in the middle.

Once again, I look forward to all your nominations and I can't wait to see what we're reading next month!


message 2: by Lisa P (new)

Lisa P I would like to nominate Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #1) by J.R. Ward Dark Lover by J.R. Ward. It's a great series and I am definitely due for a reread!


message 3: by D.G. (new)

D.G. Hmmm...that list has tons of books I wouldn't consider erotic romance (Psy Changeling is def. NOT erotic.)


message 4: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) I have been wanting to read When In Rio

The author of Willing Victim which is how I heard about it. However, I do not know anyone else who had read it -- and I have no idea how Cara McKenna rates books. :)


message 5: by Wan (new)

Wan (wanwaddell) | 143 comments I'm nominating Wild Card (Elite Ops, #1) by Lora Leigh by Lora Leigh.

I really like Cara McKenna's work. I haven't read willing victim yet.


message 7: by Alycia (new)

Alycia I'd like to nominate, Crash Into You by Roni Loren by a new author.


message 8: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) @ DG - ditto...in fact, I don't really consider BDB to be erotic romance but lots of people do


message 9: by D.G. (last edited Jan 05, 2012 02:13PM) (new)

D.G. I'm trying to look for something I'd like to read with decent ratings that is the first in a series but not having any luck.

Sigh...


message 10: by Dee (last edited Jan 05, 2012 02:15PM) (new)

Dee (austhokie) i'm going to nominate Carrie's Answer (Worthington Group, #1) by Violet Summers (its first in a series and according to my recommendations engine, I got recommended it because I like Cherise Sinclair) and DG, it has a 3.91 rating, which isn't too bad (I don't think and its the first in a series)

You should read it! It is great.


message 12: by Fran (new)

Fran I nominate The Geek Job by Eve Langlais which is only .99 right now on Amazon for kindle and also has a print edition. Eve Langlais is great and the price is right :)


message 13: by ~Leslie~ (new)

~Leslie~ (akareadingmachine) I am nominating Sinful by Charlotte Featherstone . I have been wanting to read this author for awhile and I love the cover! Here is the blurb about it:
Sinful by Charlotte Featherstone 3.98

He must find redemption in the most unlikely bedchamber...

In Victoria England vice of every kind can be purchased, and Matthew, the Earl of Wallingford, makes certain he avails himself of every possible pleasure. Bored and jaded, he is as well-known for his coldness as for his licentious affairs with beautiful women.

While these numerous dalliances fulfill Matthew's every physical need, they secretly leave him numb and emotionally void. Until one night when he finds himself beaten, eyes bandaged and in the care of a nurse with the voice of an angel - and a gentle touch that soothes the darkness in him and makes him yearn for more.

Yet Jane Rankin is a lowly nurse, considered shy and plain by most. There is no place for her amongst the lords and ladies of the aristocracy - despite Matthew's growing craving for the fire that burns behind her earnest facade. And then there is Matthew's secret. A secret so humiliating and scandalous is could destroy everyone he loves. A sin, he fears, not even the love of a good woman can take away.

Sounds good Leslie!


message 15: by Alycia (new)

Alycia Sinful really needs to be read after Addicted because there are spoilers in Sinful, but it's a really good book!

The Sweet series is good!

Oh, I thought it was the first for some reason. Oops!! Maybe someone can nominate "Addicted":}}


message 18: by Leea (new)

Leea I nominate: Addicted by Charlotte Featherstone haha! I've had this on my TBR list for awhile.


message 19: by Nadia (tails_and_tomes) (last edited Jan 05, 2012 11:34PM) (new)

Nadia (tails_and_tomes) I'd also like to nominate Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #1) by J.R. Ward as I bought the first three books of the BDB series but haven't read them, yet.


Tina "IRead2Escape" (tinar1121) I would like to nominate Giving Chase (Chase Brothers, #1) by Lauren Dane by Lauren Dane. Any of the Rough Riders series by Lorelei James books are way worth the read, as well.


message 21: by Gwennie (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) I'm going to keep out Sinful, because it's a sequel. I'm glad Leea nominated Addicted!

And, as much as I hate to do this because it's one my personal favorite series, I'm also leaving off Dark Lover. It breaks my heart because it's such an awesome series, but I have to keep it fair. While there are sexual moments in this book, it is classified as PNR/UF.

Lisa and Leslie, I'm sorry! Please please nominate something new.

I'll take up to 10 nominations, and we are at 7 now. :)


message 22: by ~Leslie~ (new)

~Leslie~ (akareadingmachine) I'm good! I'm just glad that someone nominated "Addicted". I thought I had used up my 1 nomination! I will look and see if I think of anything else.

message 26: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) the Harmless series is awesome! and Melissa has launched a spin-off with a military twist


message 27: by Gwennie (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) We have 8 nominations. I'll keep this open until tomorrow night, at which time I am going to make the poll.

Thanks everyone, for your participation.

This one looks good.


Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) I was going to nominate one, but most of my recent favorites or ones that I haven't read but want to are all shorts.


message 30: by Gwennie (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) I am closing nominations now (a day late). I'll make the poll tonight and get it ready for voting!


message 31: by Gwennie (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) I'm slacking, and I'm sorry!

The winner for this, for those who didn't see, is Addicted by Charlotte Featherstone by Charlotte Featherstone!

Thank you everyone for your time and your votes! The group read will start on Feb 1st in this thread. (Such a beautiful cover!)
