I also discovered Julia Quinn's romance novels, which are pretty well written. My other fav in romance (hey, it's end of summer and you need light reading, right?) are Jo Beverly who writes really good historical romance (and she's Canadian) and Sherrilyn Kenyon who writes vampire-ish romances that are fun reads. <BR/><BR/>Those are my current recommendations. Hope they help!caramamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02327695885346537321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558474.post-21095417859050128522008-08-20T18:18:00.000-04:002008-08-20T18:18:00.000-04:00Ok, no one has brought them up, so I am going to r...Ok, no one has brought them up, so I am going to recommend the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon.

Thank you for every time you share it with us. It always lifts my heart to see her.<BR/><BR/>2: Check out JD Robb's "...In Death" series - she's really Nora Roberts "writing as", and this series is semi-sci-fi - set in the year 2059; semi-detective - main character is NY police lieutenant Eve Dallas solving homicides; semi-romance (not too much, I'm not a romance fan in general) - she's married to an ex-criminal who happens to be the universe's richest man (no joke!). Good character development, witty dialog, fun people. <BR/><BR/>Enjoy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558474.post-9787031180618808652008-08-20T11:45:00.000-04:002008-08-20T11:45:00.000-04:00Anonymous!
