(I have no idea how we missed posting this at the beginning of January. Better late than never?)
Rowena: I have my favorite authors who have never let me down but this year, I was also introduced to some authors that I have seriously come to love.
- Julie James
- Jill Shalvis
- Jessica Sorensen
- Samantha Young
- Tessa Dare
Honorable Mentions: Sarah MacLean, Cora Carmack and Kristen Ashley. Each of these authors have written some winners for me this year and they definitely deserve to be mentioned.
Holly: I made an effort to read more new-t0-me authors this year. As a result I found some new favorites. Of course, I still love many of my old favorites.
- Samantha Young
- Kristen Ashley
- Thea Harrison
- Lauren Dane
- Meljean Brook
Honorable mentions or authors I plan to watch in 2014: Jessica Scott, Jennifer Ashley, Jessica Clare, Tammara Weber and Christina Lee. Clare, Weber and Lee are all authors I discovered this year. I’m looking forward to seeing what they have to offer with their next releases.
Which authors made your favorites list this year?
Laura Griffin, Leslie Tentler and Larissa Ione – all faves who I can rely on for a great read.
Samanthe Beck and Bec McMaster were both new to me and I really enjoyed them.
Can you recommend a title from both Beck and McMaster? I’m trying to branch out and try more new authors this year.
Authors who wrote my favorite romance books of 2013:
Grace Burrowes, Tessa Dare, Jennifer Estep, Laura Griffin, Courtney Milan, Heather Snow, Jodi Thomas and Sherry Thomas.
My favorite new authors were Jennifer McQuiston and Mary Ann Rivers.
Did you read The Story Guy by Mary Ann Rivers? I have it in my TBR pile. I thought the premise was really cute. Should I move it up?
