  • The Black Dagger Brotherhood: An Insider’s Guide - own

Covet Series

  • A novel of the Fallen Angels – to be released in September 2009

Comments: The Black Dagger Brotherhood series is my favourite series at this point in time. And because of this, I am a little ticked that the paperback version of Lover Avenged won’t be released until December, 2009. I don’t recall her books being released to hardcover first, except perhaps, Lover Enshrined. That means I have to wait until December to read book 7. I supposed I could read the hard cover from the library, if available, but I can’t do that. I can’t read something before I’ve collected it or at least in the series that I plan to hang onto for a long time. Just doesn’t feel right to do that. UGH! As for Father Mine, I have to double-check to see if this is the novella also available in the insider’s guide. For more information, like interviews with the characters, please go to J.R.’s site.

Comments: How to Marry… is really my true introduction into the paranormal romance genre. I had read one or two here and there but this is the book that first stuck in my mind as the catalyst for anything else to come. I was staying at a friend’s house while on a three-day workshop and she handed me a box of books to take. This was one of them and the title caught my fancy. I read the whole thing in one night and boy was I tired the next day! After I read book 3 all I could think of was “when will the next book come” and finally something came and again that question arises and yet again. Finally book 6 is on the way in the mail and I can hardly wait for book 7. This series is a must read!

Still, all-in-all, I have enjoyed the entire series. Check them out if you wish something a little different. I wonder what her new series will be like.

Comments: When I first picked up the Immortal series, I really got into it. Unfortunately, where I live, trying to get the rest of the series is like finding a needle in a haystack. I could order online I suppose. But now that I’ve read a few out of order, I wonder if I will want to find and finish the others. It also is hard to follow when there are 3 authors involved in this series. Below are the other books in the series. (reprinted comment from Jennifer Ashley post) I’ve also very much enjoyed the Night Slayer Series. I would like to see more written by Robin.
