Conversations With Colleen: Meet Author, Marie Lavender

Book Lovers Tag

I talk about my reading preferences on the I Love Romance Blog…

I Love Romance Blog

Here’s a fun post for all. This is a Book Lovers Tag challenge. I came across this great tag over at D.G. Kaye Writer’s blog, where she invited anyone to join in. I thought it would be exciting to jump into the challenge, as besides being an author, I love reading romance novels (hence the blog’s namesake)! So, why not?

Do you have a specific place for reading?

Mostly, I read in bed, but now and then I cart one of my books to the living room or dining room and set up shop. And if I’m feeling really adventurous (this helps if we have pleasant weather, which is never a guarantee in Indiana), then I’ll sit outside on the patio and read to my heart’s content. 😉 Now and then, I actually read on the Kindle app on my tablet, but I’m more of a paperback/hardback kind of girl.

SecondNature-final cover

 5.0 out of 5 starsClassic Vamp-Rom That Does Not Leave You Disappointed, May 17, 2015
Verified Purchase(What’s this?)
This review is from: Second Nature (Blood At First Sight Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
Second Nature is everything a vampire romance should be…a strong human female, a tortured and extraordinarily handsome vampire, and an inexplicable connection between the two that almost doesn’t happen, but thankfully does.
