Wow….I remember my best friend Donya (Happy Birthday Sug!) loaning me Shanna and us giggling overanalyzing the dirty juicy parts. Of course, Donya’s mom always had the best books! :) And My God…who doesn’t remember Shanna, The Wolf and the Dove, Ashes in the Wind…*sigh* they’re classics.

Kathleen Woodiwiss … It’s the end of an era. Look at how much publishing has changed since those first bodice rippers 30′odd years ago…….wow.

In honor of Kathleen, what’s the first romance you remember reading? Or the first really dirty juicy book you remember?

I’m off to RWA tomorrow but I’ll be checking in, blogging as often as I can at my blog-house. If you’re in the area, I will be doing the book signing on Wednesday night from 5:30-7:30 and I have goodies for the first six or so people who get a book. :)
