I am reading Up Close and Personal by Carla Cassidy...So far so good.
Happy Friday, Sarah!
I am reading Under the Dome by Stephen King. It is great. Looking forward to you new books.
Great excerpt for Last Chance! I'm really looking forward to 2/23 and the beginning on the new trilogy.
I'm currently reading Catherine Mann's Renegade.
Thanks so much, Tonja! And Stephen King is one of my all time favorite non-romance authors. Enjoy!
The book I'm reading today is "Proof By Seduction" by Courtney Milan. I'm really liking Madame Esmerelda's "fortune telling".
Have a fab Friday!
Hi Christy. Today my goal is to finish No Mercy by Lori Armstrong. Started it yesterday and it is really pretty good. I usually don't like stories in the first person, but this one grabbed me from the beginning and won't let go! I'm trying to compile a list of books that I read for this year. Goal is 75...so wish me luck! (ps..I have yours in my pile!) thanx...Diana
Thanks so much, Jennifer! I'm looking forward to February 23 too! (:
To Hot To Hold...by Stephanie Tyler still.
Today I'm reading a Kasey Michaels- How to Tempt a Duke- have some CR's in my TBR pile- which seems to get bigger by the day- even though I read at least 5-7 books a week- I just keep finding authors I like 8~)
Have a good weekend and I hope it's a bit warmer where you are

Hey MariElle, wow, 5-7 books a week. That's awesome! Hope you enjoy my books when you get to them.
Supposed to be in the mid-50s this week, which feels like summertime compared to what we had last week.
Hope you have a great weekend too!
LOL. Ida, you need to get some energy! And oh how I would love for there to be a display of NO CHANCE! However, a photo of you standing beside my books on a bookstore shelf would be awesome. Can't wait!
Hey Christina, thanks for stopping by! I've heard good things about Lorelei James's books. Enjoy and have a great weekend!
Hi Mark, several people have recommended Robert Bolano's books. I need to read him!
Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend!
Hey Amy, I'm thrilled you enjoyed the first two books and that you're now reading RUN TO ME. Hope you like it too!
And how cool that you read them all in one week!
Have a great weekend!
Hey Aly, Dean Koontz is an author I so need to read. So many people love him. He's been on my TBR list for way too long without me trying him. Need to make reading him a priority in 2010!
Enjoy your weekend!
Hey Lisa, love Julie Garwood! I've heard wonderful things about Sizzle. And Christine Feehan is awesome!
Hope you enjoy the LAST CHANCE excerpt. Have a great weekend!
Hi Diane, thanks for stopping by. Enjoy Patricia Cornwell's book! She's incredible!
Have a great weekend!
Energy??? Hummmm. Yeah i need a little.
Ok, now i guess i have to take someone with me to take the pic. It might ruin those pretty books if i am in it. Just to warn you.
And when RETURN TO ME came out. it had it's own End Cap display at one of the WalMart's I go to!!!
RESCUE ME was in on the main shelf.
Now RUN TO ME was a hard one to find I had to order it online.
Christy,
I'm reading Renegade by Catherine Mann and finishing up Taste of Fear by Shannon McKenna. Just starting (again) Run to Me. Got to get ready for next month!
Your new trilogy with RESCUE us from the CR drought we've been in lately as you books RETURN to the stores. I'm sure we'll all RUN to get our own copy. (Weak I know ,but it may be the LAST CHANCE to use the first trilogy titles in our not so funny jokes.)
Hope everyone's weekend is fabulous.
Oh Ida, you get a gold star for knowing where my books were in Walmart. And thank you for ordering RUN TO ME. (:
You're such a sweetie!
LOL, Kara, too fun! And that took some work!
Maybe we'll have a SECOND CHANCE to play with the titles before I announce the new ones. (:
Have a great weekend!
I am reading Coming Undone by Lauren Dane. Excellent book so far!
Hey Erin, Lauren Dane is great! Enjoy and have a wonderful weekend!
Erin T,
I read the Lauren Dane book last week. Soo good!
I am reading Lover Avenged by JR Ward. I am enjoying it.
Good One. You are so smart Kara C!!
Jackie are you liking Too Hot To Hold?
Hi Christy
I'm still in my reading slump but I have a fab beta read to finish this weekend. Then I'll decide from my TBR pile. I still haven't read all the ones I got at Christmas & new ones are releasing daily like Stolen Seduction by Elisabeth Naughton.
*taking Gold star*....... Wow! Cool! thanks....... *running to start a gold star collection*
Mary G, I am really liking To Hot To Hold it is just taking me awhile to get through, it is not the book, I just have been soooo busy! Looking forward to the end of the month for the new one to come out. Trying to figure out what to read next. Everyone gave such good suggestions. I read quite a few from there. I am on pins and needles for Nina Bruhns book to come out in April(That is after I read Last Chance:)).
I can't BELIEVE I am asking this but, earlier when Christy was having the week long contest. I could have swore someone mentioned another author that does seal or opt type books that were really good. It wasn't the author that wrote about the character Dallas(my memory has gone out the window these last 2 weeks) but someone esle. Help anyone?
Cindy Gerard - Into The Dark
Dallas & Amy - SO GOOD.
Just received this in an email. Adding to the blog so she can be entered in the drawing.
Gail Reddin: I'm reading Dean Koontz RELENTLESS at the moment.
Jackie P -- Marliss Melton has some fantastic SEAL books. She has a good website where you can check out her books and read about the author as well.
Obviously I read too fast. I gave you info you didn't want. Sorry.
Crystal, JR Ward is another author I'm dying to try. She has a tremendous following.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend!
Mary G, we've got to get you out of your reading slump!
Recommendation Monday is coming up!
Hi Christy, I'm currently reading DROP SHOT by Harlan Coben. Good stuff!!
Cindy Gerard is awesome! Even though Into the Dark had a beautiful HEA ending, I cried at the end. Can you believe that? Yeah, a tough girl like me. (:
Oh yeah, Marliss Melton. Awesome books!
Hey Laurie, thanks for stopping by! Harlan Coben is another author I've always wanted to try. Adding him along with Dean Koontz as another must read for this year.
Have a great weekend!
I'm reading The Richest Man Who Ever Lived by Steven K. Scott. Wishing you great success Christy!
Sharon Reece
http://grandmaisawriter.blogspot.com
Mary G no problem, I couldn't think of her name! Oklanannie, I have read her and she is good. I think it might have been Catherine Mann, I kept looking back anyway it will come to me in my sleep. :)
All of you guys are soooo much fun.
Hey Sharon, great to see you here! Thanks for stopping by. Hope you have a great weekend!
Cherry Adair is another.
Must be the "C" names. Cindy, Cherry and and oh yeah Christy LOL.
This comes from Kara in answer to Jackie's question. She was having trouble getting on the blog:
...other authors besides Cindy Gerard who writes SEALS type books. Marliss Melton, Shannon K Butcher, and Suzanne Brockmann come to mind. All great!
Hi Christy,
I can't wait until your book release, it's on my wishlist and I will definitely be picking it up. :) I am reading The Mammoth Book Of Vampire Romance Various Authors. I'm wishing you much success on your release. :))
I'm reading I know ,this is a reread book getting ready for some new ones , it is Return To Me by Christy Reece. what can I say .
Getting ready for a new book coming out, refreshing story lines from old books Return to Me
I have really enjoyed your 1st trilogy and am looking forward to the next Last Chance Rescue book. I guess I am a bookaholic. Got to have a book with me. I am reading Nina Bruhn's book "If Looks Could Chill". And I want the other one now and not April. Can't wait to get No Chance in my hands!!!!
Took me a while to read through the comments since I was making notes on future books to buy.
But today, I'm reading "Make Mine Midnight" by Annmarie McKenna. I'll probably finish it this afternoon. And next up is "Cat's Meow" by Nicole Austin.
Hey Tawania, thanks for coming by. And thanks for looking forward to reading NO CHANCE!
Mammoth Book of Vampire Romances. Way cool!
Aw, thanks Emily. Hope you enjoy your reread of RETURN TO ME. I told Kara the other day I can't think of a nicer compliment than to be told your book is being reread. That's just a fantabulous thing to be told!
Mama Gail, I'm thrilled you stopped by! So glad you enjoyed my first trilogy. And even gladder that you're looking forward to the new one.
Being a bookaholic is a good thing! And I think there are several here that are feeling the same way about Nina Bruhn's trilogy. Have got to get to it. Have heard so many wonderful things about her books!
Have a great weekend!
Hey Julie, thanks so much for stopping by. I've read several Annmarie McKenna's books and have really enjoyed them. Now gotta check out Nicole Austin.
Have a great weekend!
I'm reading Paula Graves "Cowboy Alibi."
Reading The Ape Who guards the Balance, by Elizabeth Peters. Love Amelia Peabody!!!
I am reading, "Rescue Me"...A friend told me about your books, earlier today. I called Borders Books, had them put the first of the Trilogy on hold for me and went and picked it up. I so have to thank my friend "Thank You Ida"....I have started reading it and already I can tell I will be up all night reading!
Hi Christy! I'm getting ready to read Stephanie Tyler's "To Hot To Hold". I honestly just finished reading your book "Run To Me" last night, and loved it. I haven't came across "Return To Me" yet. I hated to read them out of order, but I couldn't wait. I'm anxiously waiting for Gabe's and Cole's books to come out. February can't come quick enough! Have a great weekend.
