If you haven’t already, check out part 1 and part 2 of my series on North Carolina authors. I promise I’ll still be here when you come back.
Back? Good. Here are some more great North Carolina authors!
Cindy Holby- Perhaps the author on my list with the widest spread of genre available. As Cindy Holby, she writes historicals. As Colby Hodge, she writes sci-fi. And, as Kassy Tayler, she writes young adult. My personal favorite book by Cindy is her young adult novel, Obsessing Orlando. Here’s my review:
Kassy Tayler really has a great voice for the YA market! I liked the believable 14-year-old-ness of her characters. It was fun without being too didactic, but still had good pieces of morals running throughout. Enjoyable, even though I’m an old coot!
Sabrina Jeffries- I do know Sabrina Jeffries, but I have to say that I was a fan even before I knew her, and I was a little star-struck when I first met her. I may have gushed. A little. Or a lot. Sabrina writes really sexy Regencies with lots of plot twists and hot heroes. She just wrapped up her School for Heiresses series. Here’s my review of the first in the School for Heiresses series, Never Seduce a Scoundrel:
If it’s one of Sabrina Jeffries’s scoundrels, I’d seduce him any day! I loved every page of seductresses and big, strapping soldiers. Amelia and Lucas were a well-matched pair of adventurers. As always in Sabrina’s novels, the plot was riveting, and I really felt attached to the characters by the end. Great, fun read and I can’t wait for the Scottish Scourge!
