Zoe Archer's historicals are a lot of fun (and not Regency) -- Wicked Temptation is the new one. Karen Ranney's Scottish historicals are great, and I think she has a new one out.
Donna Kauffman writes smart, funny, sexy contemporaries -- Half Moon Harbor is the newest. Christie Ridgway also writes lighter contemporaries.
Shiloh Walker writes contemporaries with an edge of suspense, and they're meatier than a lot of other books -- much more novel than simply romance. The newest there is Deeper Than Need, I think.
Allyson, if they look historical to you, I can give you some more historical recs, too.
Thanks! That's an excellent start. I'll pick these up and see if she likes these or not, and I'll get a better idea of what she likes. Getting a mix of historical and contemporary isa good start.
I knew I came to the right place.
Does this mean they'll be bringing you on as an employee, or are you staying contract but with shinier terms?
Still contract, but more guaranteed hours (not quite double my average month currently, but close) and a higher rate.
That's fantastic, Steph! They are lucky to have you.
Hey, Doc Otter! Yay!
lisah! When you thought you were going to need to reglaze your new-to-you-tub, did you have a goto outfit?
Congrats Doc Otter and Steph!
And in other news, drat! I found a typo on the version of the resume I've sent to several jobs in the past couple of days.
Phew! It was just on my LinkedIn profile (which I'd thought I'd built by cut and pasting resume info, but I guess not entirely). Anyway, that hasn't seen much traffic yet, so I guess it's less of an "argh" situation than I'd thought.
