Romance Authors – Favorites #L&SR #Wednesday Blog Challenge 7.10.19

Welcome to L&SR’s #Wednesday’s Blog Challenge 7-10-19. My favorite Romance Authors.

Romance would not be what it is without NORA ROBERTS. She’s written over two hundred twenty-five Romances over the years. From Contemporary to Paranormal Romance she’s covered it all. I’d be amiss if I didn’t mention her alter ego JD Robb, who has more than a few books under her belt as well.  Yep, she can head hop with the best of them, but then… she’s Nora Roberts.

Another favorite Romance author of mine would be Molly Harper. Her snark and hilarious situations make her stand out from the crowd. I love her quick wit and wonderful characters.”Snarky romance with bite, is her own description.”  More than once, I’ve been red faced because I laughed out loud in a public place while reading her books.  I just hold up the book and say, you need to read this and return to reading. Yep, no shame! LOL

Because I don’t want to bore you with my long, long, long list of favorite Romance authors, I’ll end with Deborah Harkness and her Discovery of Witches. I love this series that has been turned into a TV series.  I’ve binge watched the entire series three times and read the books to many time to count. I can’t wait for season two to come out on TV.

Well there you have it. Favorite Authors in Romance Genre. These are just a few of the great authors writing Romance. I could go on and on, but, I need to get back to my WIP, so let’s see what the other authors in this blog challenge claim as their favorite Authors: L&SR

Fourth of July – A Memorable Camping Trip

What a fantastic Forth of July we had.  Went camping at Cheyenne Mountain State Park. Ok, I admit it, we camp in style. We’ve left tent camping behind years ago. My family likes the comforts of home without all the to-do lists, not to mention, hiking trails and wildlife right outside our front door. Thursday, the Fourth of July, you couldn’t have asked for better weather. It was clear with a few wispy clouds, a balmy 82 degrees, slight breeze, in short, beautiful!

Our campground overlooked the entire city. Yep we planned this. Wanted to see the fireworks set off over the entire city.  And we did. Stayed up until  midnight watching the different displays all over Colorado Springs.

The next morning was shrouded in mist, really cool, after the warm 4th. It was a welcome relief as was the evening showers Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Got a chance to relax outside with hubby, dog, parrot and turtle then enjoy reading some of the books I’ve been saving on my ipad. Since time seems to travel at the speed of light these days, our four day weekend was a welcome respite.  We also hiked around the numerous trails in the park, saw deer, chipmunks (drove our dog nuts), wild turkeys ( the kind with feathers, not the human kind well, maybe there were a few of those too) LOL.

Sunday came too soon. With storm clouds on the horizon as the sunset, we had to pack up and head toward home. My hubby had to return to work, I to my writing cave and my work in progress which was awaiting my arrival to the keyboard. Sigh. Once home, I discovered that my book AN ANGEL’S UNINTENTIONAL ENTANGLEMENT is a semi-finalist in the Raven Awards.  Yippee! Voting is now open, I’d love your vote. Here is the link to vote. http://uncagedbooks.com/raven-awards/semi-finals/

I hope your Fourth of July was enjoyable as well. I’d love to know what you did over the Forth, enlighten me in the comments!

Keep your Pets Inside & Celebrate the Fourth of July Safely

Pay special attention to your pets on the Forth of July!

Did you know? More dogs go missing on the 4th of July than any other day of the year. With all the noisy fireworks, loud parties, and distractions, it’s no wonder so many pooches bolt and get lost on Independence Day.
July Fourth is a significant date for Americans across the United States. Celebrated with parties and FIREWORKS. it is imperative pet owners pay special attention to their four-legged friends during the holiday festivities and afterward.

Always keep you dogs and cats inside when fireworks are going off to avoid their nature to find a safe haven. Make certain your pets are walked prior to fireworks going off, close all windows and doors.  Draw the curtains. Ensure your pets are wearing ID tags, even if in the house, as many animals are expert escape artists. Never leave your dog alone in a vehicle during the celebrations.

You can also prepare a den for your pets inside the house with blankets and pillows in a location they will feel safe.

After the celebrations are over, make sure to check your yard any pick up any debris from the spent fireworks or maybe those that didn’t go off.  These are harmful to your pet should they chew or ingest these items!

Most importantly:  NEVER TAKE YOUR PET TO A FIREWORKS DISPLAY!

The American Veterinary Medical Association has more safety tips. Check them out.  Have a happy and safe Fourth of July!

Humorous Book Titles #L&SR #Wednesday Blog Challenge 6.26.19

Humorous Book Titles, wow, what a fun topic.

 

For me Molly Harper wins hands down for humorous book titles.

How to Flirt With a Naked Werewolf by Molly Harper

Even in Grundy, Alaska, it’s unusual to find a naked guy with a bear trap clamped to his ankle on your porch. But when said guy turns into a wolf, recent southern transplant Mo Wenstein has no difficulty identifying the problem. Her surly neighbor Cooper Graham—who has been openly critical of Mo’s ability to adapt to life in Alaska—has trouble of his own. Werewolf trouble.

The Art of Seducing A Naked Werewolf by Molly Harper

Generations of werewolves have been secretly residing in a secluded valley a stone’s throw from Grundy, Alaska. So when a snooping Outsider comes to Grundy to investigate rumors of lycanthropic shenanigans in the area, the valley’s pack alpha, Maggie Graham, resolves to chase him away, even if doing so takes a quick bite on the butt. What a pity that researcher Nick Thatcher turns out to be so drool-worthy, and that his kisses make Maggie want to sit up and beg. Maggie just can’t seem to convince Nick to leave . . . and even worse, she can’t convince herself to stay away from him. Cross-species dating is problem enough for a harried alpha female, but on top of that, a rival group of werewolves is trying to move into the valley. With interpack war threatening, Maggie can’t afford to be distracted. Combining romance and a career can be tough for anyone; for a werewolf in love with a human, it may be disastrous. . .

BossyPants by Tina Fey

Before Liz Lemon, before “Weekend Update,” before “Sarah Palin,” Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: a recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV.

I have not read this book, I just loved the title. LOL

 

Well there you have it, my favorite Humorous Book Titles. These are just a few of the books I’ve giggled out loud at their amusing titles.  How about you, do you have any favorite humorous book titles?  Please list them in the comments.
