The Blog:
There's nothing I dislike more than immersing myself in a new book, throwing myself into the plot, identifying with the characters...and then getting brought up short by unexpected sleazy material. February's blog will focus on different aspects of love, but as far as the romantic type...check out some of the authors and their websites below. Guaranteed fun reads, squeaky clean.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm with you, nothing's worse than not getting to finish a book because it's full of garbage.
Like your list. I recognize a few:D
ANWA chick-Steph Anderson
I woulder my books as options as well. They are clean romances with a fantasy historical feel. No magic, but not of this world. (www.freewebs.com/anavrea) I am going to look up some of the others of this list for myself. :)
