Lovin’ me some Series

Reading: Risky Engagement by Merline Lovelace
Watching: Chuck
Listening to: The Best of Lisa Gerrard
Making me smile: the gifts hubby gave me for my birthday

Well, all my fellow LoveCats are off to have a fabulous time at the RWAus Conference…just little ole me to hold the fort. To keep myself busy (and not wishing I was at conference too) I’m going to do a little reading.

One thing I’ve always loved about category books are the linked series and continuities. You can keep revisiting a place or characters you love many times. You can follow families, watch a couple fall in love, watch kids grow up and then get their own happily-ever-afters.

The eHarlequin site has recently been revamped. A new feature I absolutely love is the easy way to find books that belong to featured miniseries. All the imprints have some great series to check out.

Using this new feature, I was thrilled to discover a series I have loved for many years had a new book out in June that I had missed. I’ve mentioned my love for the romantic suspense series CODE NAME: DANGER before. It’s by Merline Lovelace and the new installment is called Risky Engagement. I’m definitely downloading to my Kindle! If you love action, adventure and romance, then check out the series.

The Aussie Mills and Boon site doesn’t have the miniseries feature but under certain books, it will list what series the books belong to. If you check out LoveCat Nikki’s book, you’ll see its part of the series Outback Baby Tales.

If anyone has any other category series they love, then let me know. I need to keep very busy reading this weekend!

  1. Hi Anna,

    I love the new-look HQ site, too, but I didn't know about the miniseries links. Might have to go back and have a closer look...

    Oh, and Happy Birthday! :)
