I just found out that THE STRANGER I MARRIED won the Best Historical Erotic Romance CAPA from The Romance Studio today!! yay! I’m super thrilled about that.

AND…

I’ve joined forces with Wickedly talented authors Cathryn Fox, Charlene Teglia, Mackenzie McCade, and Shayla Black/Shelley Bradley on a Wickedly fun new reader community/chat loop. It’s only a couple days old and it’s already super active. Readers, other authors, and anyone who’s interested is welcome to join. It’s just chatting, talk about books (everyone’s not just ours), naughtiness, and the occasional surprise. *g* We hope to expand so there’s more Wickedness for everyone.

Writing-wise, I’m super ultra unbelievably buried. BUT… I’m really enjoying the stories and the characters, so that makes it worth it.

Hugs!

Should be fun!!

:rofl:

I won’t post it all here, you can go read the actual stuff about the book yourself, but the part about her ‘judging a book by its cover’ just killed me. :rofl:

“I must admit that I was pretty skeptical about this novel when I got it in the mail, but after reading just 3 pages I put aside all my preconceived notions and enjoyed every page of the read!

This book has many bad things I can say about it, but none of them about the writing or story telling ability of Sylvia Day who with this first book swept into the Romantica scene and left me hot, bothered, and breathlessly awaiting her next novel. As I said before, when I got this book in the mail I turned to my boyfriend and flat out mocked it. I mean it’s an anthology of erotic stories all written by the same author (what she couldn’t write one full book?), it’s a Regency set book with the horrific title Bad Boys Ahoy! (hmm that’s a title that screams Regency doesn’t it?), and the cover is not only garishly colored but has a pirate ship and two kissing fish on it! (Look at it. I mean LOOK at it!). And yet by the third page I was laughing out loud and totally engrossed.

[read actual review of book here]

Bottom Line: Don’t judge this book by its name or cover because the only person who won’t enjoy this book are those who don’t like their sex hot!”– Rakehell - Regency reviews
