Strangers discussion

An amazing story! The best contemporary romance (erotica) I've ever read. Barbara Elsborg always weaves fascinating tales with characters that come to life, but this is a masterpiece. The story intertwines heartbreaking choices with laugh-out-loud humor. No spoilers here, but read the excerpt on the Ellora's Cave site and you'll be hooked. You'll still be thinking of Kate Snow and Charlie Storm long after you've read The End. (And apparently, a lot of readers agree with me, if you've seen all the five-star reviews.) And what a gorgeous cover.

I was delighted to see that STRANGERS rose to #5! on the Preditors and Editors (TM) Reader's Choice Poll for the best romance/erotica book of 2009! And that's despite just being released on December 4th. Totally deserved, IMHO. The readers have spoken. :)

i just did a group read on this in my book romance group and were discussing it now ,i think it was def a great story very dark it reminded me of "love unscripted" but obviously strangers is alot darker and i fond the story line was great lots of drama and action ,with plenty of romance mix in ,its not my fav contemporary romance (erotica) for me id have to say fifty shades is the best one for me.

This book was fantastic. It's one of my top 5 favorite reads of 2012 so far.

In 4 short words...I loved it all!

the cover is a hook up, Charlie and Kate have the perfect chemistry, the plot dynamic...the story will drown you from first chapter to last:)
love love love <3

Loved this book! I kept rereading this until my friends told me to stop it coz they're tired of seeing me all swoony-faced and then teary eyed the next. Lol

oh hi:) I think I've lost count rereading it hahaha..*sigh I want to do the dance of the 37 ties :D *shhhhh quiet

LOL on the ties, Louise. (My lips are sealed.) Also loved your "will drown you from the first chapter to the last." :)

thank you! and oh Laurie stop right there:) haha..I'm itching on reading the book again and I don't want that to happen:)oh its too late

Hahaha and i thought i was the only one, loved it from the very first bump on the nose... loved it all!

I am hooked on Barbara Elsborg, I haven't read one yet that I dislike. Strangers I loved this book, all her books have so much feeling that you feel that you are right there in the story with them. Sometimes I find myself just thinking about the characters themselves.

I agree, Catrulz. Her books have made me a total addict.

Strangers is probably my favorite, but there are quite a few that tie for second--Doing The Right Thing, An Ordinary Girl, Finding the Right One, and especially Lucy In The Sky (cuz I LOVE Science Fiction Romance and this is her only one.) The Power of Love (how does an author create an HEA with a hero who's died? She did it.) Then there's her whole True Blood vamp sibling series from Loose-Id. Oh, and Digging Deeper--totally hilarious, and though not an erotica, it's pretty hot.

Yup, like I said. Addict. LOL

Digging Deeper made me ROFL hahaha, I think its the cleanest book she wrote:) and Power of love might be the most heart wrenching story she wrote I cried over and over, I mean it, yep the HEA was a shock:) another addict here!:)

Love, love this book!

This book was incredible. Just wow. I will read more of her for sure (although I may need a lesson in British slang before I do)
