Many people are ashamed to say they read them (case of some of the cover are LOL), but with all these new erotica books, these books are like nursery school books.

I am an avid romance novel reader!! Your comment hit home though! Two years ago I went on an interview, when we were wrapping up the guy who was interviewing me asked me about what I like to do in my spare time. I said : read romance novels. He gave me a wierd look....and never called back lol. I am guilty of hiding my cover on the train also hehe....I have learned that with time the ppl that understand me don't judge me. There are some really good romance novels out there....beautiful stories, beautiful characters, beautiful emotions ...I have caught myself numerous times tearing up, crying and getting goose bumps from certain scenes :graucho:

Also, I can't believe\Hannah Howell isn't mentioned! Thanks OP for starting this thread :smile:
 
^^I agree with you! I used to be ashamed to let people know what I read. Now I just don't care. People can get over whatever their problem is with me reading a romance novel. And I still read Harlequins, etc. every once in a while because I just want to read a short story that doesn't require too much thinking.

I'm not normally a romance novel fan, but an old boss gave me a copy of Dark Prince by Christine Feehan and I became obsessed with "The Dark" series. I was at Borders one day, looked Feehan up and was a little mortified that I was in the romance section. A friend is going to give me some more romance novels since I could 'handle' Feehan.
 
^^LOL! My best friend never walks with me in the bookstore. I always go through the romance section and she gets embarrassed by it. So we part ways when we enter the store until I am ready to check out and look for her :P

Love her stuff. Have you read other stuff by her? i don't want to recommend any you've already read lol
 
Lisa's older books are great.

I'm currently reading 3 different books. I will do a review in the review section.

When I get to a slump in the book, I tend to start reading another and then go back and finish the other. LOL

Active book: Karen Hawkins, Much Ado About Marriage.
