I absolutely loved that one. I also rather liked “The Wayfarer’s Advice” even though it doesn’t have a happy ending.

Re: George R Martin – I too started the series and gave up because a) depressing and b) long waits between books. So has he finished yet and is the payoff anywhere sufficient to compensate for all the deaths?

Thanks for posting these–I got lots of new material for my reading list . . .

It’s kept me from reading it thus far. I am hopeful the price will fall.

Carrie–

I didn’t read the Martin anthology because I got too depressed by his Song of Fire and Ice books–they are amazing but, damn, everyone dies. I’ll check out the anthology based on your rec though. Thanks!

She’s a favorite author of mine, and firmly on my auto-buy list! Can you share more information?

Like you I discovered both Bliss and Mayberry this past year. It has made me take a closer look at Harlequin Superromance.

I also discovered Sarah Mayberry this past year and am so glad I did. “Best Laid Plans” is a truly moving book as was “Her Best Friend.”

I want to mention the short story anthology edited by George R.R. Martin, “Songs of Love and Death,” which features short story by many popular romance writers including Diana Gabaldon, Jo Beverly, Linnea Sinclair, and more. The book is subtitled: “All Original Tales of Star-Crossed Love.” I was surprised how little excitement this garnered.

Also:
Rebels and Lovers by Linnea Sinclair. the fourth in her Dock 5 series, and possibly the last since her publisher doesn’t want the next book. This is a great book and part of a great series. I’d love to see sci-fi romance get a little more notice.

No Such Thing as a Free Ride by Shelly Fredman (4th in a humorous mystery series with strong romantic elements).

Simply Irresistible by Jill Shalvis (who I think is an under-rated author)

Song of Scarabaeus by Sara Creasy. This is a truly amazing sci-fi book with romantic elements. The pacing of the book is almost flawless. Wonderful debut novel!

Beyond the Shadow by Jess Granger. Second in a futuristic romance series, and as entertaining as the first one, Beyond the Rain.
