Is July over already? Time flies when you’re sweating and reading smut.
Our Favorite Reads…
Is it an accident that all our favorites were the books we read for Fake Relationship week? I THINK NOT!
Holly’s Choice: D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding by Chencia C. Higgins
This book does a great job of balancing sadness with hope while keeping things light-hearted. It’s just a lovely read.
Erin’s Choice: Kiss Hard by Nalini Singh
Catnip. That is all.
Ingrid’s Choice: For Butter or Worse by Erin La Rosa
When there’s a pun THAT BAD in the TITLE, you know Ingrid is gonna love it.

Notes from Romancelandia…
This article by Steve Ammidown about The Romantic Spirit (a pre-internet romance catalogue) is fun (and fascinating if you’re a nerd).
Coming Soon…
Here are some of the books we’ll be reading in August
Plus we’re planning a whole week where we talk about blue collar protagonists in romance. It’s time to lay some pipe!
