"Book Recommendations for Harlequin and other like publi"
 
I'm really enjoying Stephanie Bond's Blaze books and am looking for other authors and titles that anyone could recommend. I like books with humor, good sex and that are well-written. What I like about the Harelquins is that they're more in my price range than regular books. I'll probably be buying these on my Kindle or getting them at other ebook publishers. Thanks for any recommendations you can give me. And thanks to Linou for all the great recommendations that you gave me.

I really like the Blaze books.

   Hey Dawn, I forgot to mention Meg Benjamin's books, published by Samhain. She has a series about brothers in a small town in Texas. It's pretty good. The stories are really sweet and fun, with great characters. I know LisaA likes them too. Have you read her ?

I really like Jill Shalvis's Blaze books. I don't read too many, but she's one of the few I buy. I've purchased a few others on the nook, but I haven't read them yet so I don't know if it's worth it yet.

I downloaded a bunch of samples of Jill Shalvis's books, so I'll probably be buying some of them. They looked good. If you come upon any treasures as you read your new books on the Nook, you'll have to let me know.

   Dawn, I'm reading "Touch Me" by Jacquie D'Allessandro right now and it's great. Check her out. Luci told me about her.

I like the Blaze books cause they're a light read, short stories that don't take up a lot of time, easy to carry in your purse, and are reasonably priced. A nice change from time to time.

Hope you find lots of good books you'll enjoy.

   Faint not, fight on...Tomorrow comes the song.

Try Susan Napier's True Enchanter(1987). I don't know if it will be available in bookstores, the ebook version is available on esnips. It is one of my all time favourite M&B, and I have been reading M&B's since I was in 8th grade.

I thought Caitlin Fox's book was cute. It was free on the nook though I haven't checked out the rest of the series. The first is All Tied Up, I think. It does have kind of a witch, but it's subtle.

I also recently read Maya Banks. Hers is kind of a trilogy, but nowhere are the books mentioned to be related (though the characters are all friends). Seducing Simon is one of my favorites, but there's not a ton of sex. The story is adorable though. The next one I read was one I can't remember the title, but it's the one before Overheard which is the last one I read. It's super quick and there's some graphic sex (the heroine's dream is to have a threesome), but the story is there and sweet at the end. I'm reading the third one now.
