I like Romance In Color because its informative! I can go to the site and see all of the new releases from the past few months, but also, look forward to reviewing and buying the books to come with in the next few months.

I can track my favorite authors and be introduced to the new ones, in your Up and Rising section.  I have been a fan of romance novels for over 30years. Romance In Color, opened doors for a lot of readers, who live in cities, where you don’t have a large selection of African American books to choose from at your local book store. It gives you and opportunity to check out the new releases and reviews.

Favorite Food - Soul Food

 

The best move you saw recently - Secret Lives of Bees

 

Who are your favorite authors? Maureen Smith, Brenda Jackson, Francis Ray, Rochelle Alers and Beverly Jenkins.

 

If you had to take one romance with you on a desert island which one would it be? WITH EVERY BREATH by Maureen Smith.

 

What do you like to do when you’re not reading? Spending time with my family and friends.

 

Who are your heroes?  My Mother and Sister.

I love Romance in Color because of the variety of authors in this group and because of their great stories. Each of their writing styles are so amazing that I can picture myself in each scenario that their stories are based on. The stories are hot and exciting and keeps me reading each book until the last page. I am an avid reader and reading is my way of relaxing and going to a happy place that is stress free. The books featured in Romance In Color take me there and to exotic and not so exotic places that I can only dream and fantasize about.  Even though I may not make it to these places physically, I can sure go there in my fantasies while reading the great stories of the authors in this group
