Romance and Me: The Sports Edition

Hey Everyone!

Lately I’ve been on a special romance sub-genre kick: devouring sport romances!

I’m sure that you have come across one of those stories where the hero and/or heroine are athletes, and while I have always enjoyed reading about sexy hunks as heroes, lately I’ve discovered this new addiction of mine. Be it sexy football player like Dean Silverthorne in Candis Terry’s Any Given Christmas, or the hunky hockey players like those in Lily Harlem’s Hot Ice series or Rachel Gibson’s Chinooks Hockey Team series, the irresistibly gorgeous soccer captain in Scored by Lily Harlem or star pitcher Park Jones in Nora Roberts’ Rules of the Game (the very first sporty hero I’ve read about), I love them all!

I’m not a sport fanatic, when the Olympics, European or World Cup football …

Guest post by Kelley Vitollo + Giveaway

You all know that I am a fan of Vegas romances, so it is my great pleasure to bring to you Kelley Vitollo‘s brand new romance, Luck of the Draw, which you might have guessed is one! So read on to learn more about the inspiration behind the story and if you leave a comment, you could even win yourself a copy of Luck of the Draw by Kelley Vitollo!

What Happens in Vegas…

Nope. It doesn’t always stay there! Rowan definitely learns that lesson in LUCK OF THE DRAW. I’ve always wanted to write a story where a character lets loose in Vegas. Rowan is strong and fun, but letting loose like that? Totally not her thing. As mean of an author as it makes me sound, I wanted to make her squirm. I wanted to throw her into a situation that she totally wouldn’t …

The Spring Awaiting Winner Post

Hey Everyone!

I have had enough of frosty mornings and icy wind. I want sunshine and warmth, to be able to sit outside and soak up the sun and the sweet scent of flowers or freshly cut grass.  The past week has been a roller-coaster  Monday and Tuesday mild with sunshine promising longer days, then the icy cold came back in the second part of the week. I don’t care for winter wonderland snowy landscapes and ice skating, I’ve had enough time to enjoy my nice scarf and gloves, I want to shed my thick winter coat for my cute and colourful blazers and trench coats! I’ve had enough of winter, when will spring finally be here? Pretty please?

A couple of weeks ago I told you about this new trend I see emerging: the New Year’s Eve romances, and I mentioned that lately I have read two such romances, one of which was Yours at Midnight by Robin Bielman, which I loved!

Romance and Me: The Office Romance

Hey Everyone!

In today’s post I’d like to talk to you about another trope I like a lot: office romances!

There is just something so exciting about having colleagues, or a boss and his/her employee try to fight their attraction and then sneak around trying to keep their relationship secret 😀 For me “office romances” don’t necessarily mean the hero and heroine have to work in an actual office/boardroom, I expand this category to any two people working together and falling in love: they could be co-workers in a hospital, bartender and restaurant owner, wedding planner and cameraman, etc. My only requirement is that somehow their meeting was due to them having to do work together.

When thinking of the different “office romance” stories I looked through the books I’ve read and made a compilation of the office romance books I have …
