An eBook of Dancing Naked in Dixie by Lauren Clark
An eBook of Racing to Love ~ Carter's Treasure by Amy Gregory
These are 2 of my fave book from this year's reviewing. Dancing Naked in Dixie is a fun Chick Lit and Racing to Love is a wonderful love story.
Here's a little about the books
Travel writer Julia Sullivan lives life in fast-forward. She jet sets to Europe and the Caribbean with barely a moment to blink or sleep. But too many mishaps and missed deadlines have Julia on the verge of being fired.With a stern warning, and unemployment looming, she's offered one last chance to rescue her career. Julia embarks on an unlikely journey to the ‘Heart of Dixie’—Eufaula, Alabama—home to magnificent mansions, sweet tea, and the annual Pilgrimage.
Julia arrives, soon charmed by the lovely city and her handsome host, but her stay is marred by a shocking discovery. Can Julia's story save her career, Eufaula, and the annual Pilgrimage?

Excerpt
For a guy who could see the end of his twenties, love had always been elusive, and he sure wouldn’t have believed in love at first sight. It wasn’t so much that he was a skeptic, but Carter Sterling had a career that kept him moving—literally. He was racing before he entered grade school, and had made a winning career of it. But it left him with little chance to connect with anyone, especially a woman who could understand. When he saw her for the first time, it was as if the air had been knocked out of him. A connection so strong, so magnetic, that he knew instantly Molly West was the woman for him. Perfect in every way, a love so strong and pure, it was almost too good to be true. Carter had an innate need to protect her without even realizing if there was a need to. The mark on Molly’s back proved his gut instinct was absolutely spot on

Both books look great, either one would be wonderful to read.
ReplyDeleteFor me, romance is all about the trust and respect built between the characters. Since I write BDSM, these elements are very important.

Thanks for participating! Really like the hop so far!! I love reading, especially romance. I love the happy ending that is garenteed at the end. My favorite book is Lover Mine by JR Ward! I love John Matthew and Xhex. My favorite romantic moment was when my fiancé asked me to marry him! We meant two years ago right around when summer was ending! My friend and I went out for our last big night out before classes started again. Thanks so much! Hope everyone else is having a great long weekend!!

Why I like Romance Novels….The reason I like Romance Novels so much is because it is one place where I can be anywhere like England, Scotland, Rome, Ireland, or anywhere in the US. I can also be in any time like 1200’s Scotland, 1500’s England, 1900’s Chicago. I can be anyone like a princess, a servant, a werewolf, a duchess, a vampire, or a lost soul. But no matter what I get the privilege and the experience to overcome many different obstacles and find love. I am a mother of three teenagers as well and there are many days when I need an escape and my heart needs a rest from the trials of being a parent and trying to do what is best for everyone but yourself. I have overcome cancer, loss, and financial problems and Romance Books let my heart soar and feel free. Let me tell you in this world, and during this time where life can have so many struggles it is great that you can be, have, and do so many things to find love and romance and still be yourself!
