I really think you'll enjoy Lips Touch. Their styles of writing are different - Stephanie's is contemporary, while Laini uses wonderful imagery, similar to reading a fairy or folk tale - but both are outstanding.Suzie F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09560250678212373878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162697787444358072.post-3155645679299851152011-09-29T13:49:16.212-04:002011-09-29T13:49:16.212-04:00@Donna - I first heard of Laini's work from Na...@Donna - I first heard of Laini's work from Natalie Whipple and Kiersten White. I do enjoy romance within other genres as long as it's not sappy and the main focus. For example, I adore the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon.

I was intrigued, but that quote from Lips Touch has sold me.<br /><br />Off to Amazon I go!
