[Gwennie]

Yes, me too! I'm assuming you're meaning in regards to Isaboe... if not, that's what this spoiler's about, lmao. Maybe Finn (view spoiler)[was silly in his jealousy, I could see how it wouuld make him feel that way. But I still LOVED how Froi put him in his place (hide spoiler)].

[Regina]

Me too. Exactly. Finn was silly, but I still loved it. And I loved that the couple was dealing with problems and I really like the evolution of (view spoiler)[Isaboe's and Froi's relationship. (hide spoiler)]

[Gwennie]

Me too!

[Tellulah]

Just finished Like the first book in the series, it picked up about halfway through but I was still left wishing it had been more satisfying.

[Vicki]

Working on The House on Tradd Street. Liking it so far :)

Kay, I didn't read all the entries in-between, but Julia Quinn is one of 3 writers who took turns writing a story called . It's a fun romance. Eloisa James and Connie Brockway are the other 2 authors. Try it, if you haven't already.

[Leea]

Finished and it was good, loved Nash and Tess who drove me nuts most of this book but brought out the cute in the end so that won me over :)

Now i'm taking a break from the Troubleshooter series to read

I cannot wait to continue the Troubleshooter series and read Jones/Molly and Max and Gina's stories.

[Gwennie]

Who's number 8 about...?

Off to look that up!

[Regina]

Glad you liked it!

[Regina]

-- Hot Target is a state side setting. We get more of Jules -- really the beginning of his starring role and his story, Robin is introduced and the main romance is Cosmo's. There is a historical reference, as there is a movie being made. There are also some very sad things that happen. :( But it is a great storyline. I never thought Cosmo would make such a compelling hero.

is more of Jules, and then Max and Gina (yay!) and Molly/Jones -- two of my favorite couples!

[Gwennie]

Yep, I just went and read that about Cosmo and Jules. That one should be really good.

And then I'm super excited for 9. Max and Gina and Molly and Jones are my two favorite couples so far.

Suza..."

I'm so glad you like it! I think The Rake was my favorite of the three. :)

Her Griffin Family series is really good, too!

[Leea]

I'm so excited for the next two books... I don't know if i'm going to read Maze Runner... I want something light, i'm feeling very fickly right now. Not sure what to read next?

[Gwennie]

Maze Runner is definitely not light, lol.

[Leea]

That's what i'm thinking :) Now i'm off to search... maybe a historical romance

[Courtney]

I am wading very slowly through . It's not exciting enough for me to want to keep reading but I'll finish it soon! I just can't wait to get to the next book.

i felt the same way about this one when i read it. actually the only one i really enjoyed from this trilogy was The Raven Prince

[Regina]

I finished and it was fantastic!

[Gwennie]

Yay, I can't wait for your review!

[Courtney]

Domino - I barely remember The Raven Prince but I did read it! I probably won't continue on in the trilogy after this. I'm being swamped with nursing school stress! I'm sure you can understand xD

[Domino (aka Meme)]

hang in there Courtney. =D i sure do remember those stressful days. i'm studying for the Nclex myself and will be taking it next Monday. =/

[Courtney]

Thanks, I'll try! And good luck to you on the Nclex!! You'll do great!

[Domino (aka Meme)]

thanks Courtney! i'm trying to stay focused. =D

Thanks! I was wondering about these books before. I'll have to check it out!

[Mona]

It's about as far away from romance as you can get, but we all need a break some time. I'm reading The Black Box, one of the Harry Bosch series by Michael Connelly. I've read most of his, and enjoy them between reading and writing romance.

Hey Kay! Any suggestions for a historical romance for me to read? :)

Vicki wrote: "Finished The House on Tradd Street, and started A Cottage by the Sea"

You'll have to let me know how Cottage is. I picked that up as a freebie a long time ago and never got around to reading it.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Finished and good lord...

I ranted...

and ranted...

and ranted...

Is it too much to ask for a fun piratey kidnap book? Gah. It was so wrong, on so many levels. Rapey - rapey - rapey. And the only reason why I kept reading was because I was laughing so hard and having to update my progress with quotes that were beyond belief.

[Kay]

Hey Leea. It seems like we've read almost the same historical romances. So here's a few that I noticed you haven't read yet.

i know that you liked Heath's westerns....so how about her regency novel . Her western Texas Rogues series is fun...although the first book was just okay.

There's also a western about a handicapped girl.

A couple humorous regency novels . I just read which I really enjoyed.

A cute Highlander romance that I enjoyed was .

I hope one of these suggestions will fit your mood!

Leea, I really enjoyed the Sterling Trilogy by Samantha James.

[Lori]

Reading - decent Highlander book. What cracks me up are all the scintillating covers and titles. Makes every book sound *oh, so naughty*, when most are *oh, so nice with a nice bit of steam*. LOL!

[Kay]

I had a nice fix with historical romance which was so fun. Now, I'm in the mood for some contemporaries preferably not small town, sports, or romantic suspense. Does that leave anything else? Anyone have any suggestions? The last couple CRs that I read were just not that great.

[Regina]

LOL. Those are some popular themes in contemporary romance. :)

[Regina]

Maybe

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Perhaps a grittier contemporary or a rock star theme?

[Kay]

Regina wrote: "Maybe "

I need to get to this one. I started this when it first came out but couldn't get over the first 2 chapters. It could have been my mood though.

[Kay]

What do you have in mind?

[Kay]

Regina wrote: "LOL. Those are some popular themes in contemporary romance. :)"

I'm hoping to find something like The Travis' series by Kleypas or books by Julie James. I've been having a hard time.

Have you read Heartbreaker by Julie Garwood, Kay?

[Angie Elle]

It reminds me of Julie James.

[Kay]

Angie wrote: "Have you read Heartbreaker by Julie Garwood, Kay?"

I haven't read that one yet. Is it a novel where suspense is the main focus and the romance is secondary? Or is it romance with suspenseful elements?

Ooops...sorry, Kay. I forgot you didn't want suspense. I think it was more romance, but I read it a long time ago, so I can't be sure. Sorry. :(

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Oh, sorry. I didn't have anything in mind.

I still need to read Mr. Real. I got the galley and it's just sitting on my reader. Strange coincidence that I'm reading by the same author at the moment.

I'd heard that is pretty good. That's NA though. It only popped into my head because for some reason, I'd stuck it in my student/teacher folder and ran across it last night. I'd have to look through my adult folder for adult gritty romance.

[Regina]

I think Stacia has it exactly right in terms of genre or maybe new adult (like Easy). I have no suggestions, sorry.

I haven't read Laura Kaye's two new in her series -- I don't know if they are as good as Hearts in Darkness:

[Regina]

How are you liking Mind Games?

[Kay]

I haven't read any of Garwood's contemporaries yet. Thanks for the suggestion, Angie.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

You could do more of a romance with bad boys or different lifestyles (non-office, etc).

I liked the second book of this series . Didn't read the first because I'd heard it wasn't as good.
A few friends of mine liked , but I don't know if it's any good.
Or there's which has been getting a lot of buzz. I haven't read that either though.

Leea and I are going to read on Thursday if you want to join us.

You're the best, Kay :) Thanks, not sure what I will pick, but appreciate the suggestions.

Regina wrote: "How are you liking Mind Games?"

Only one chapter in. I'm trying to push to finish so I don't have a bunch of books going at once. What I've read so far has been good though. I like when a mystery man shows up on the scene.
