I started looking for all romance authors in Ky because that’ my home state. Authors Den may still have a listing by state.

My 2nd novel, For Better or Worse, will be published in December 2010. It is also contemporary romance. I’m looking to do more networking in the Tulsa area and look forward to building networks with readers who love romance and other authors alike.

Thanks,

Tierra Allen

Thanks for highlighting the cover of my newest release. Check’s in the mail! Seriously though, your great state is a dream come true for me. Such history. Have been to OK at least three times to do signings and an event for your state historical society. For you, I’d recommend TOPAZ. It’s set in IT and is a western. I’m warning you though, you may learn an awful lot of history about the great state of OK that you never knew but you’ll have a great time doing so. Hope you check me out. Make sure you check out the bib list in the author notes, too. As for OK romance writers, I’m sure you have a bunch, check with the local RWA. Once again, thanks! B

Love the stuff. Particularly “bad boy” romances. And there are so many sub-genres, go to Romantic Times for some themes. http://www.romantictimes.com/books_themes.php
My favorite blog title for romance lovers is Smart Bitches Trashy Books. I can remember the day when we tried to cover the romance novels in our purses with more “legitimate literature”. Oh Please…
No excuses for reading romance any longer.
And I’m sure I’m like most romance readers I have my favorites, no historical pioneer women in distress romance for me, I like them a little steamy and lean toward contemporary topics, but give me an Amanda Quick anyday. (or any other Jayne Ann Krentz)
