Romance Lovers for the Challenge-Impaired discussion

I'm torn between choosing a Catherine Mann's Code of Honor or Suzanne Brockmann's The Unsung Hero as a military/ special ops book for our May reading challenge. Both of them are authors that I've never read before. Does anyone have a preference for either author?

✿Michelle✿ I've always liked Suzanne Brockmann. I haven't read and Catherine Mann that I can think of; I'll have to check her out.

I love both, but I'd go with Brockmann.

Thanks ladies. I'll plan on going with Brockmann.

✿Michelle✿ What are you going to read? Maybe I'll plan/try to read the same thing?

I'm thinking of reading . A woman at the bookstore just raved about the Troubleshooters series. Have you read that one yet? I have more of her books, and could start with a different one if you want.

✿Michelle✿ For some reason I haven't read that one yet. Already marked The Unsung Hero on the challenge for May!

Goodie! I do better getting through my books when I'm reading them with someone :)

I've read the whole series up to date. The Unsong Hero starts out kind of slow but it's well worth the read. The whole series just goes up from there.

Am I right in thinking there are 15 books in that series so far?

16 books. The newest one just recently came out.

I've got the newest one on request at the library.

To me, it's the best in the series.

I'm glad to hear it. The way the bookseller went on about the series, I was tempted to buy the whole thing. But I'm going to see if there are any books at a used booksale I'm going to, and then try to fill in the holes later. I like having a complete series. Especially if its one that the majority of readers seem to really enjoy.

That's a good idea.

Man-oh-man! What can I say about The Unsung Hero? Only that I am LOVING this story. Some people said they didn't like the flashbacks to WWII, but I'm loving those too. Just getting ready to start Chapter 5. It is so good, I felt compelled to add the GR cover so it shows I have the paperback I own!

I have that one, too. It's been in the TBR for years. I guess I should drag it out and read it since I'm between books right now.

i'll add it to my list...

I'm only up to chapter 2. I think its moving a tad slow for me, but I heard that the story gets really good. The very beginning was pretty exciting though. I hope it gets back to that sort of stuff.

Has anybody read Cherry Adair's T-FLAC series? I only read the first one which I thought was pretty good.

I have and I LOVE it!

✿Michelle✿ I have read a lot of them - but not that one. Kinda hit or miss (not pun intended!). I should patch the holes in the series.

That's good to know. I'm thinking of picking that series back up again. I bought a box of her books probably a year or so ago, and I've only read the first one.

As you know, I have way too many books to get through (not that I'm complaining!). If you pick up one from that series any time soon please let me know. I seem to get through my books faster when I'm reading them along with someone.

Okay, ✿Michelle✿ GTK. I will keep you in mind.

Thanks Lisa Kay. What does "GTK" stand for?

GTK - Good To Know!

Doh! Thanks Lisa Kay. I can't believe I couldn't figure that one out, LOL!

Lora Leigh's Wild Card wasn't too bad. It's the first book in her Elite Ops series. After I read the first one, I went right out and bought the rest of the series. Although I think its one of those series that I'd rather not read back to back. Her heroes are extreme alpha's! I'd recommend Wild Card to anybody who's interested in that romantic suspense/ special ops stories that won't mind the more graphic sex scenes.

I LOVE LL's Elite Ops series!! Very HOT!!

Tell me about it! Have you read LL's Nauti Boy series yet ? I have the first book, but I haven't started it yet.

I'm up to date on the Nauti series. I love it!
