OMG OMG. I love this list. Awww I'm glad you chose Blue-Eyed Devil because Sugar Daddy would have been my pick rawr ♥ As for her historicals though, they'll have to duel for my affections - I would be torn between a good three or four of them.

I've been trying to read Thunder and Roses for FOREVER but it's Out Of Print! Booey.

I would totally comment on every book here, but that would be excessive :P

And your mood theme ♥

lol Sugar Daddy was my first pick but I thought I'd go with Blue Eyed Devil cause Heaven is physically more like me XD Though I LOVE Gage ;P

Agreed about her historicals!

It is out of print damn it! I want to OWN one but alas, I had to settle for a library copy.

;) I know you would

Well they're relatively cheap...maybe I'll pick up a copy if it's that good...is it?

Haha you focus so much on the physical aspects sometimes! Like you and your tall blondes!

romance rocks!

You mean you've only tried her contemporaries? (amazing as they are!) Yes they are just as good, it's what she's known for V ;) Start with the wallflower quartet, bk 1 is Secrets of a Summer Night :3

I didn't bother to check it because someone had compared it to twilight so there... lol. I just checked the book today and my gosh what a praise 1000+ rated it 5 stars so I guess it wouldn't be so bad. Also, I'm picking it up since I have faith in you when it comes to book and oy! OMG I'm reading Tucker's Claim *evil grin*

omg I wish she wouldn't, I'd cry. I've read in her website that after she finish doing the Hathaway series she'll be doing contemporary... and so my mind panicked but my... *grin*

WHAT THE FUCK WHO COMPARED IT TO TWILIGHT???? I AM HONESTLY SERIOUSLY ANGRY ABOUT THAT. OUTLANDER AND TWILIGHT COULDN'T EVEN STAND IN THE SAME ROOM WITHOUT OUTLANDER BEATING THE SHIT OUT OF TWILIGHT AND KICKING ITS SKINNY ASS OUT THE FUCKING DOOR.

DO NOT EVEN COMPARE THE TWO. OUTLANDER IS TOO GOOD OF A BOOK. It is one of the BEST books I have ever READ. WHO THE FUCK COMPARED IT TO TWILIGHT?!?!?! I NEED TO BEAT UP SOME FUCKER NOW.

Okayyy heheh :) lol don't jump to conclusions! Kleypas has said over and over that she would never leave historicals. I think she meant that she would finish her contemp series because she has one more brother to write for but she hasn't planned his story yet or something.

*gasp* Where's the SMeyer love? Twilight, uh hello! *snort*giggle* What? You don't think creepy love is real love? Nothing says love like house arrest. *eyeroll* :D Ok, I'll forgive you for not listing SMeyer. I wouldn't really either. I'm just givin' ya flak.

I know a grand total of 1 author on this list. Though, in my defense, I don't really do romance novels... And I still haven't made it through Echo. That book is long, and Uni is killing me (and I should go to bed).

Also mysteriously missing: Sherrilyn Kenyon. Though, I'm thinking these are more of the non-trashy romance novels?? Ahhh, bodice-rippers. How I love thee.

Off to bed!

rofl that comment totally made me laugh.

And no SMeyer cause that's not a romance novel! It's YA ;P

everyone does romance, it's the only genre that's within every fiction book whether it be a little or a lot, it's there. Uni kills (studying= study +dying)

ROFL awww Kenyon's not 'trashy' XP but I just don't think any of her books would make it top 16, top 30 maybe.

g'night!
