Thanks for suggesting it, Anna. I've recently read:<br /><br />"Finnikin of the Rock" by Melina Marchetta - a YA fantasy (given to me by a gorgeous friend). I wasn't sure about it, but said friend was insistent, so I dove in and loved it.<br /><br />Kelly Hunter's Rita nominated book, "Revealed: A Prince and a Pregnancy". Gosh, I *loved* that book. And the one that came before it (which I read about a month previously), "Exposed: Misbehaving With The Magnate". Sublime, both.<br /><br />Emily May's "The Earl's Dilemma" came just before that and I am sooooo looking forward to her next. It was a gentle Regency - great characters, lovely writing, funny and tender plot. Was v sad when it ended.<br /><br />Some great titles above - must look some of them up!Rachel Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200504088343160284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-37758727868017790852010-04-12T14:22:11.208+10:002010-04-12T14:22:11.208+10:00My goodness you have been very very busy in the re...My goodness you have been very very busy in the reading department. I just finished Keri Arthur's Destiny Kills - loved it.....<br />And Rachel Bailey's debut book 'Claiming his brought bride'.<br /><br />I'm all over the place with my reading (way my brain works) so I have got quite a few on the go. Keri Arthur's Bound to Shadows (book 7), JR Ward's Lover Avenged, Shannah Jay's Quest...<br /><br />Have fun reading!Eleni Konstantinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12410262752761104440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-82495268008701879972010-04-12T12:21:20.106+10:002010-04-12T12:21:20.106+10:00Hi Anna,

One of those books that stays with you...<br /><br />Anna, I also keep on going back to Nora Roberts - she's got a knack, that lady - but I like her paranormal and JD Robb stuff best<br /><br />Mel's story was also a great read.<br /><br />I've knocked off books two and three of Kresley Cole's Immortals After Dark Series - Wow, they're GOOD! Am frantically trying to find the rest to load on my iPhone. :)<br /><br />Read the SHIFTER anthology - bought it for the Alyssa Day.<br /><br />I also read two Anya Basts' this holidays - jury's still out, but I think Cole was a hard act to follow!<br /><br />I also read IMMORTAL BRIDE by Lisa Childs, and THE EMPATH by Bonnie Vanak - I'll be looking out for more of hers..<br /><br />And - get this - I've just downloaded a BRAND-NEW Anna Hackett - I love this one! :)<br /><br />Right back to it - a few good days left to lounge around the house before the kidlets go back to school... <br /><br />E xEmmeline Lockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10398543962808655906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-43333441184033183392010-04-12T09:10:45.539+10:002010-04-12T09:10:45.539+10:00Anna, I've read WARRIOR'S WOMAN by J.Linds...Anna, I've read WARRIOR'S WOMAN by J.Lindsey - it's a keeper on my shelf - if you like it there's a follow up KEEPER OF THE HEART (Shanelle Ly-San-Ter & Falon Van'yer's story, Shanelle is Tedra & Challen's daughter) - yeah, I know, the TBR piles groan at the thought! :-)<br /><br />I've just whipped through two new authors and series - Pamela Palmer & her Feral Warriors series - DESIRE UNTAMED, OBSESSION UNTAMED & PASSION UNTAMED, and Joss Ware's post-apocalyptic series - BEYOND THE NIGHT, EMBRACE THE NIGHT ETERNAL & ABANDON THE NIGHT.<br />If you like Shape-shifters & mages then Pamela's series feeds that need.<br /><br />Joss's world building for her post-apocalyptic setting is incredible - it's hard to pinpoint the tone of it but it has elements of Mad Max, Jericho, Stephen King's The Stand and David Brin's The Postman. Highly recommended, each you could read as stand-alone's but if you go in sequential order then you can see the clever development of the over-arching plot.<br /><br />Both have more to come, but of course, they've not been released yet!Kylie Griffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00469214884337936604noreply@blogger.com
