We're six months into the year.
I don't know if you all know this, but I'm a HUGE reader.
In fact, I have a book review blog...Smitten with Reading.
And I know that this is my author blog right now, but I thought it might be fun for you, my readers, to see what I read and loved.
So far this year I've read 195 books.
17 have made it to my favorites list.
So here is the list...the books I've read in 2015 that I've thought are phenomenal...so far.
(I'm listing these in order of how I've read them.)

Hmm, interesting.
Of the 17 books I've loved so far this year:
*12 were contemporary romance
*6 were male/male romance
*6 were within the sports themed genre
Maybe for my next book, I should write a male/male contemporary romance set in the sports world. Hmm, something to consider. hehe.

Not that I don't have enough keeping me busy.
Just so you know, right now I'm writing two books at once.
They're both *supposed* to be novellas, but honestly, they're looking like they'll be full-length novels.
1. Intertwined Hearts - menage story set within the Snowcroft World
2. Josh & KC (needs a better name) - m/m set within the Martin Ranch World
And I'm editing and prepping two books to go out to betas...
1. Right By Your Side - first Martin Ranch book (m/f full-length romantic suspense - new series which is a spinoff from When the Mission Ends series)
2. Found At the Library - 55,000 word male/male stand alone novel - Christmas story.
