Okay, Okay. I've been a bit lax lately with my blog postings, I know. Work, my own writer's deadlines and family drama got the best of me. But I'm back and with lots to share, so I'll try to catch you all up with some of the great stuff I've been reading in the next few weeks.

Okay, true confession time: I've never been a big fan of paranormal romance. Sure, I've read one or two (okay, four) of Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse books. And I liked them just fine. Didn't love them, but enjoyed them at some level.

In my inaugural column for BroadwayWorld, I told you about a relative newcomer to the romance scene, Robin Covington. Her first two books for Entangled's Indulgence line, A Night of Southern Comfort and His Southern Temptation, are fast-paced, fun frolics centered on a group of childhood friends who return to their small hometown of Elliott, Virginia, where they find passion, danger and, of course, love.

Meet Adrienne Giordano, romantic suspense and mystery writer. Adrienne's a Jersey girl at heart, but now lives in the Midwest with her workaholic husband, sports obsessed son and Buddy the Wheaten Terrorist (Terrier). She's a co-founder of the Romance University blog and Lady Jane's Salon-Naperville, a reading series dedicated to romantic fiction.
