Hey guys!
Just a quick post as I’m getting ready to head to Orlando for the Shameless Book Con on Saturday!
This is my third year in a row going to Shameless, and I’m so excited.
I’m so lucky that this event is held so close to home every year (only a couple of hours away!), and I am hoping I’m able to go for many years to come.
I’m hoping you can help me out! There are only a handful of romance authors going to this convention that I am familiar with, so I was hoping that you all can let me know who some of your favorites are that are attending and what books I should buy from them.

Omg how exciting!!! Well let’s see! Alex Grayson’s Hell Night series is so good! Pretty dark though so heads up on that.
RL Mathewson really anything but especially the Neighbor From Hell series. They’re so funny!
Siobhan Davis – Rydeville High series and Only Ever You are my favorites!
TM Frazier – Perversion is my favorite by her. Three books in the series and so good!

No problem! I hope you find a new author to love! Oh also Abbi Glines Fallen Too Far and Breathe are really great! Her Rosemary Beach and Sea Breeze series are awesome. Both have a bunch of books, but those two are favorites.

That’s a great way to look at it. I get social anxiety bad, but I always try to find positive ways to look at things. It helps a lot.

I love book events!! Yallwest is the best one for me and I’m so glad they have that close to me too. I see some familiar names on here that I’ve done book promos for, but most of them I haven’t read… I do have their books on my TBR list. LOL
I’ve read a few of Marikay Kay’s books. They’re a fun quick reads and quite enjoyable.
I read one book by Meghan Quinn and really liked that. “The Secret to Dating Your Best Friend’s Sister”
Yup that’s it. LOL. I feel like there are so many and I never have the time to read whatever I add on my TBR.
My current fave at the moment is Maya Hughes. I know she’s not on this list, but you should check out her books. =)
Hope you have a wonderful time!!!
