Her trilogies are another story though. However, all in all, when you pick up a book by Nora Roberts, you just know it's going to be a solid read.<BR/><BR/>As for Kay Hooper, I just love her to bits. Can I ask you which 'rules' she breaks in regards to POV? Love Hunting Fear and Touching Evil soooo much!!<BR/><BR/>LOL, if you're looking for something funny and different, Jennifer Crusie is the one.<BR/><BR/><B>Renee</B> - Hi Renee :D Glad I was asked to guest blog :P <BR/><BR/>LOL, I agree about Kelley Armstrong :) I've just finished re-reading Bitten, Stolen and Industrial Magic and I need to get more!!!<BR/><BR/>I never tried an audiobook, but perhaps I should for Welcome to Temptation. Wonder if it's even better than the book - although the book was just great!!<BR/><BR/>Robyn Carr is an amazing author... although you either like her or not. She has a very different style in my opinion which adds freshness :)<BR/><BR/><B>Lea</B> - Thank you Lea! I'm glad you enjoyed the post :)<BR/><BR/>Ohhh, another Katherine Stone lover!!! We are a rare species!! I mean, I'm sure there's lots of readers who enjoy her books... but lovers, I haven't encountered many!! <BR/><BR/>As I said to Renee, you either like or not Robyn Carr :)<BR/><BR/><B>Marg</B> - I'm totally in love with the Women of the Otherworld series again! As for the In Death series, I think it's a must read. <BR/><BR/>I agree with you on Jennifer Crusie's collaboration. I hope she sees the light and finally work on single books again. Even if there are not as good as Bet Me or Welcome to Temptation, they can't be bad as the collaborations.<BR/><BR/><B>Tracy</B> - LOL, Tracy!! I know I said in my post that I was cheating... but I've come up with a better word - loophole!!! If there's something I remember from the Dark-Hunter series... it's loophole!! :P<BR/><BR/>I didn't know you were a fan of Kelley Armstrong too! Great minds think alike!<BR/><BR/>As for NR, you have read the Chesapeake quartet right? I also recommend Angel Falls and High Noon. Birthright was pretty good as well :)<BR/><BR/>Rum? Nah, I don't hold my alcohol well... virgin pina colada is good or a can of coca cola ;)<BR/><BR/><B>Rosie</B> - LOL, you should see me when I travel with my family... My backpack? it's really just for my books :) Well I don't mind people 'borrowing' my books! Or I can always steal them back right? :P<BR/><BR/><B>Bev</B> - LOL about the hot menz! Bring them over :)<BR/><BR/>LOL, I'm just trying to be original here :Pnathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626894830238717124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8012664417591303836.post-92220967924933136672009-02-28T18:01:00.000-08:002009-02-28T18:01:00.000-08:00HEY, NO FAIR!

Roberts is too but I haven't read her in years. Well, except for the re-read challenge this month. The others I haven't checked out but will now!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for being a guest here on the island!

I love Jennifer Crusies books that she wrote by herself (not quite so keen on her collaborations).<BR/><BR/>I recently listened to the audio book of Welcome to Temptation. I lent it to a couple of friends before I started listening to it, and then when I was listening to it I was surprised at how sexy it was. I had forgotten, but listening definitely bought it all back!Marghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508430635744720721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8012664417591303836.post-24774779920436310192009-02-28T09:02:00.000-08:002009-02-28T09:02:00.000-08:00Hi Nath: What a wonderful post!I too enjoy Kelly A...Hi Nath: <BR/><BR/>What a wonderful post!<BR/><BR/>I too enjoy Kelly Armstrong's work and Katherine Stone, wow a wonderful writer!<BR/><BR/>Like Renee, I'm seeing Robyn Carr's name as a favorite popping up all over so I will perhaps have to give her work a try. :)<BR/><BR/>RegardsLeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11521584458356470972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8012664417591303836.post-37074381848748290942009-02-28T08:58:00.000-08:002009-02-28T08:58:00.000-08:00Hi Nath!

The woman can't write a bad word.<BR/><BR/>I've only read a few contemporary romance authors lately, but really love Jennifer Crusie. I just got <I>Welcome to Temptation</I> in audiobook format from the library. It looks like lots of fun!<BR/>I must try Robyn Carr. She's just popping up everywhere these days!Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026384330126049496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8012664417591303836.post-23950675873886095082009-02-28T08:41:00.000-08:002009-02-28T08:41:00.000-08:00It goes without saying that I love La Nora too *g*...It goes without saying that I love La Nora too *g*. I also love Kay Hooper! She's so amazing. She totally breaks 'the rules' in regards to POV, but it doesn't matter b/c her writing is so strong and her characters jump off the page! Hunting Fear is on my keeper shelf :) Haven't read the others, but I might check out Jennifer Cruise! I need a comedy to mix things up.Katie Reushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18085461796363818906noreply@blogger.com
