Jenni J. (jsjacobs44) | 4 comments Def. Nominate Karen Chance out of your choices..either that of Shelly Laurenston! Love both of their books!!!
Or for one that is outside of your list...I just read Shaking of the dust and I really loved it. It was funny and just an all around great book to me!
So I would nominate Rhianna Samuels
or Katie Allen...
her new book Chasing Her Tail was awesome! I'm still re-reading it..great book so I def. give a big nomination to her....she's one of my all time favorite authors!!!

Shaking Off the Dust by Rhianna Samuels Chasing Her Tail by Katie Allen

A. (aekirk) | 2 comments I vote for Kelley Armstrong or Jim Butcher.


message 17: by Keta (new)

Keta (ketadiablo) | 18 comments Annette McCleave - relatively new I think. Winner of the 2008 Golden Heart for Best Paranormal Romance for Drawn Into Darkness. I'm reading it now and loving it. I do think she's an author we'll be hearing a lot about. She really is a very good writer and knows how to draw the reader in.

Kudos, Ms. McCleave!

Keta Diablo

I love Shelly Laurenston too. I'm also a big fan of Jeanne Stein.


message 20: by Amy (new)

Amy (amy525252) | 6 comments Sherrilyn Kenyon - The League series. The third book in the series is coming out on Dec. 1st. Outstanding series (I highly recommend it). Ms. Kenyon does it again and she is such a talented writer.

I ♥ Bookie Nookie (bookienookiereviews.blogspot.com) (ibookienookie) this is tough...I was going to suggest Rachel Vincent if everyone is supposed to nominate a different author. I am sorry, I do not know how this works...
But Gena Showalter and Lara Adrian are good ones too...


Felicia (Ferishia) (ferishia) I'd like to nominate Nalini Singh. Her Psy-Changling series is AWESOME! :D

yeah i agree


message 32: by Darcy (new)

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 3123 comments I like most of the ones people have said, but came across this author yesterday while at the book store and it looks good.

Amazon Ink by Lori Devoti by Lori Devoti This looks like the first in the series. I haven't read anything by this author, so I don't know how good the book is.


message 33: by Jess (new)

Jess | 3721 comments I'm sorry if the first thread was confusing. As Kelley Anne stated, this is only a SUGGESTION thread. The names are put together into a list and on Monday we will create a poll from that list.

Any votes that have been given in this thread do not count. To place your vote, look in the polls section on Monday and pick the author you would like to see as author of the month for December.

Also, if you want an author who is already on the list, you don't have to suggest someone else. You can wait for the poll to be posted and then just vote for that author. Not everyone has to nominate an author.

Don't worry about it Sherra. I put in your suggestion of Rachel Vincent, but if you are looking at another author that you would like to see for December, than you can just vote for that person when the poll is out. You don't have to nominate an author if you don't want. Especially if the author you want has already been nominated.

I hope that helps.
