• What are you currently reading?

Just the Sexiest Man Alive by Julie James. Okay so I've got this on audio. I've been listening to this on my morning walks and I'm sure all those people I've passed think I'm a loon for grinning and laughing. Jason and Taylor are just so fun together. AND, Julie James will be at RomCon11. Squee!

Talk Me Down by Victoria Dahl. Um, why have I not picked this up sooner? Oh yeah. I just bought it a week or so ago. This and the rest of the Tumble Creek series. I've read her historicals and now it's time to break out the contemps. I <3 u VD.

• What did you recently finish reading?

Oh sweet JM&J. I didn't do a post for WWW last week so there's been quite a few books. Here it goes:

Dark Lover by JR Ward

Lover Eternal by JR Ward

Lover Awakened by JR Ward

Lover Revealed by JR Ward

Lover Unbound by JR Ward
Lover Enshrined by JR Ward

The Perfect Play by Jaci Burton

Breaking Point by Pamela Clare

• What do you think you’ll read next?

Serendipity by Carly Phillips (ARC). This will be my first book of this authors. Plus, she'll be at RomCon. =)

Lover Avenged by JR Ward. Another BDB book. *sigh*

Okay. So I've been on a BDB kick. Sue me. It's like chrack. Yes, with a ch. I blame Jamie Lynn for enabling my addiction. And why yes, those covers both have Jed Hill on them.

Teaser Tuesday (10)

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read

Here's my teaser:

Getting it from your father when you became a true male: priceless."

W...W...W...Wednesdays is a weekly meme MizB of Should Be Reading. 

To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…

• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?

So, here's my answers:

• What are you currently reading?

All's Fair in Love & Seduction by Beverley Kendall. This is a novella in her Elusive Lords series. I have been waiting for it for a looong time, or so it seems. After cowboys, I think it's time to go back to tried and true: historicals. 

Ripe for Pleasure by Isobel Carr. Still chugging on through this book. It's taking me a while but I think I'm at a good point in the book where it'll hold my attention and make me keep reading it into the wee hours of the morning.

• What did you recently finish reading?

Cowboys Like Us by Vicki Lewis Thompson. I actually liked this book. I mean come on, what's there NOT to like about cowboys? You know, the tight jeans, the worn out boots, the snap button shirts (easy access), the 10 gallon hat, the work roughened hands... Shall I keep going? Oh and lots of steamy sex. Read my review here.

Should've Been A Cowboy by Vicki Lewis Thompson. 2 Vicki Lewis Thompson books in a row? There must be something in the water. I guess I'm sort of going backwards in the series but it's all good. This is 2 books before Cowboys Like Us. Maybe I'm unconsciously getting ready for RomCon and the Wild West Roundup. Brushing up on cowboy lingo, western wear and hopefully the cowboys will all be as yummy as the men at the Last Chance Ranch.




• What do you think you’ll read next?

Dark Lover by J.R. Ward. Yes, I may finally make my foray into the world of the Black Dagger Brotherhood. I hear you gasping. Yes, I have been living under a rock apparently since I've never read any of these books or a few other author's until Jamie Lynn came along and opened my eyes. These days, I like a variety in my reading so after cowboys and lords, I'm ready for vamps. Bring them on!

A little bit of this and that

It's Wednesday, hump day, the middle of the week. I don't know about you but here in Jersey it has been miserable! It's been raining for about 4 days and has just zapped my energy. But you know what the best thing about it... I spent a couple mornings watching North and South with the wonderful and sexy Richard Armitage.


That man can scowl at me all he wants! If you haven't seen I suggest you do. Mr Thornton is totally swoon worthy!

Also, for the past week I've been reading Jenn LeBlanc's The Rake and The Recluse. Yes, I said the past week and no I'm not done yet. Why? Because I keep getting distracted by the fabulous pictures! I would highly recommend this book to all historical romance lovers and don't forget, Romancing Rakes is giving away 2 copies of the E-book and Jenn LeBlanc also threw in some swag! So head over to enter!

Also, there was some big news announced yesterday. I am a HUGE fan of JR Ward's and her Black Dagger Brotherhood series. I've been hooked since Book 1, Dark Lover and cried like a baby in Book 3, Lover Awakened. Now, after 9 books, my man Tohr is next! JR Ward announced Tohr was next at her book signing in April and yesterday she gave us his title: Lover Reborn. I'm not going to give away any spoilers (cause I hate that) but I am SOOO excited and if you're a fan of the series you know what the title means. All I'm saying is that Ward better give Tohr one hell of an HEA! So, I will now be freaking out for the next year waiting for Lover Reborn since it won't be released until late April or early May.

To me, the BDB is my crack and Ward is my dealer! Is there a book that you are just DYING for? I'm also waiting for Lorraine Heath's Waking Up With The Duke which comes out June 28.
