…Brava style. :) Since I’m blogging over here today, rather than at my blog, I thought I’d bring my TT over with me.

Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen Things I Love About Brava Books

1.) The covers! They’re fabulous.

2.) The readers! They’re beyond fabulous. Extremely loyal and enthusiastic. I think Brava has the best readers. :)

3.) The writers! From debut authors to New York Times bestsellers, Brava has a remarkable range of talent, styles, and sensuality levels. There is always something to fit my mood. (and the authors are simply great people to know. I’ve enjoyed every one of the Brava authors I’ve met)

4.) The website! Lots of great content here. (Have you seen everything yet?)

5.) The length of the stories. Many lines and imprints have shortened their word counts. Brava still gives readers full-length books.

6.) The sex! From mildly steamy to equatorial hot, Brava covers the gamut.

7.) The genres–light romantic comedy, westerns, action/adventure, romantic suspense, paranormal, multi-cultural, historicals, mysteries…you name it, Brava probably has it.

8.) The editors. Creative freedom. What a gift!

9.) The surprises! Because of #8, I continue to find that Brava books surprise me. There’s no mold.

10.) The Bad Boys. Yum. :razz:

11.) The promise — Happily Ever After guaranteed.

12.) The holiday themed anthologies!

13.) …

So, what did I miss? Tell me something you love about Brava books that I didn’t mention above and you’ll be entered in a drawing to win my December 26 release THE STRANGER I MARRIED. I’ll ship it out Priority Mail, so you’ll get it before it hits the shelves!

    13. The Brava folks are generous! They offer great promotions, contests, chat parties…

  3. little lamb lost Says:

    The well-crafted stories. When I pick up a Brava book I know that I am in for a great read.

  4. Maureen Says:

    The heroes. They are all fabulous.

  5. Stacy ~ Says:

    I love the ones you mention here, especially those bad boys. And I’ve not read a Brava I didn’t like.

    The fiesty and independent heroines who get the bad boy. You have to have a heroine you can actually like if not exactly relate to. Someone worthy of that bad boy, who’s not TSTL. Brava babes rock.

  6. Stacy ~ Says:

    Oh definitely gotta love those bad boys. And I haven’t read a Brava I didn’t like. High quality stuff.

    A heroine a reader can actually like if not even relate to, someone worthy of that bad boy. Intelligent, fiesty, independent, honest. No TSTL women in my books. Brava babes rock.

  7. Stacy ~ Says:

    Oh yeah, love those bad boys, and nobody does ‘em like Brava. And I’ve never read a Brava I didn’t like.

    The heroine: a woman the reader can actually like if not actually relate to. She’s smart, sassy, and independent. No TSTL heroines in my books. Brava babes rock.

  8. Sanni Says:

    Hooray for the Bad Boys :mrgreen:

    Happy TT from Germany,

    Sanni

    I love Brava books and authors too! I love everything you said. You read my mind! I would add to it that Brava authors are the nicest and most generous authors around!
