Help! Avid romance reader seeking new author since I have read almost everything written by my favorites (see below). Hoping someone will recommend other authors who write as well as these ladies do. Favorites: Suzanne Brockmann,Nora Roberts, Lisa Kleypas, Susan Elizabeth Philips, Elizabeth Lowell Julia Quinn, Jane Feather, Mary Balogh, Jayne Ann Krentz,, Kay Hooper, J.R.R. Ward I like heroines with backbone and stories that entertain. If you have any other authors to recommend based on "if you like these, you'll probably like _______", I'd greatly appreciate the suggestion. Thanks all! |

Mimi-G, Thanks for the welcome! I will definitely be looking out for those that you listed. I made my list of authors from memory and I couldn't think of Johanna Lindsey off the top of my head. Yes she is another favorite! Really enjoy the Malory series. Thank you for the recommendations, Christy |

cjsmom, Thank you for thesuggestions - I am a big fan of Janet Evanovich (again my excuse for not having listed her previous as I was trying to do it from memory ...) I have not yet checked out JoAnn Ross or Julie Garwood and look forward to doing so. Many thanks, Chirsty

I would recommend Connie Brockway (My Dearest Enemy is one of my all time favorites) and Loretta Chase. Also, I always recommend Diane Gabaldon's Outlander. Fabulous book! |

I 2nd the crazy series by janzen! but read them in order! I'm through book 4 and have 5 & 6 in the lineup. just got low's and gerard's series as well(only 2 of gerard's). I also just ordered some in another seal series though have no idea how good they are..think Marliss is her name but not sure. Melton? maybe? I like Linda Howard's Mackenzie books too (most were originally silhouette) but have been reprinted and maris' story is in a christmas anthology and it's good and comes after the 3rd book(mackenzie's p leasure) and before 'game of chance'. it's a shorter story but still good. also liked mr perfect(suspense type) and I think all the queen's men she wrote..whoever wrote it, it's good. ok friend needs her computer so I'm getting the boot! |

Everyone has pretty much listed my faves, but if you like Janet Evanovich, you'd probably like Sarah Strohmeyer's Bubbles Yablonsky series. I started them the other day and they're really good. Some others I like, they may or may not be previously listed: Julie Garwood (historicals, I'm not crazy about her contemporaries); Catherine Anderson, Susan Andersen, Pamela Britton (If you like NASCAR); Sherryl Woods, Debbie Macomber; Julia London, and the list can go on forever...I like a wide range of authors:) |

Try Cherry Adair for stories about Seals, FBI, and other military types. For a more humerous, contemporary read try Jennifer Crusie. Love them both and read everything they write. Mary |

Elizabeth Hoyt's historicals are good. If you like british type humor Katie MacAlister is wonderful. |

Seconding Jennifer Crusie (her best in my opinion is Bet Me, her style is somewhat similiar to SEP, Bet Me is my favorite by her), also if you like SEP you will probably like Carly Phillip's "Hot" series about a sports agency firm. The rest of Carly Phillips books are just okay I thought, but the Hot series is pretty good. Also seconding Tara Jenzen and Cherry Adair. |
