empressearwig? lapiccolina? You guys around tonight?

Wanna do some Lisa Kleypas drabbles? Gen/whatever?

I'm kind of in the mood, and I've filled my Veronica/Billy quota for the night....anyone interested?

Of course this is open to everyone, but I don't know if anyone else knows who Lisa Kleypas is...I'm quite happy to give a full bibliography if you are curious!

Oh, I adore her. Adore, adore, adore. Everyone seems to love the Bridgerton series, that is definitely going on my list for the summer. (It's probably not in bookstores any more, huh? I would have to 'amazon it'.) I've read two by Eloisa James, Kiss Me, Annabel and The Taming Of The Duke. EJ and LK are actually very good friends in real life, did you know that? They used to host a blog together.

As for recs, conveniently I just wrote up this list for dragonday just the other day:

I would suggest that you start with the Wallflower series. It's what empressearwig and lapiccolina started with, and they both seemed to love them (otherwise, they were being kind to me).

In order they are:

Secrets Of A Summer Night
It Happened One Autumn
The Devil In Winter
Scandal In The Spring

The Wallflower series bleeds into the Hathaway series (many characters make a return appearance), which is a bit richer, and more emotional. The Wallflower series has a bit more of a romcom feel.

Mine Til Midnight
Seduce Me At Sunrise
Tempt Me At Twilight
Married By Morning
Love In The Afternoon <--- out next month

Cheesy title themes aside, I'd have to say she is without a doubt my favorite genre author.

She just completed her first contemporary series this past year, if that's more your flavor, called the 'Texas' trilogy:

Sugar Daddy
Blue-Eyed Devil
Smooth Talking Stranger

If you pick any up, please let me know what you think!
