Drum roll please.

Hollis, as a fan of Lucy Parker and Chloe Brown, you are obviously a fan of humour with your romance. Do you know of any books apart from Mia Vincy’s, The Wallflower Wager by Tessa Dare, What Happens in London and Ten Things I Love About You by Julia Quinn who can match Headliners and Chloe Brown in the humour department?

hi Sean! a lot of my top faves are funny, actually, it’s definitely my thing. if you like queer romances, definitely go for RED WHITE & ROYABL BLUE & HEATED RIVALRY. but the Mhairi McFarlane is also hilarious, though quite emotional, and so is THE FRIEND ZONE by Abby Jimenez. and anything by Ilona Andrews! they are mostly paranormal or urban fantasy but they excel in all areas.

Thanks. I agree, “Here kitty kitty” is funny, but I don’t really regard the books of Ilona and Gordan as more than “with mildly amusing bits” on the whole. Despite that 😉 Don’t You Forget About Me reserved and sample of The Friend Zone downloaded.
