Seeing as we’re already in Alabama, this seems like a good time to segue into Southern Voices and Inman Majors’ rollicking tongue-in-cheek novel about SEC football, Love’s Winning Plays. Or if that’s not your thing, head over to Mississippi for Carolyn Haines’ Buried Bones.
Harlequin Romance New Releases . . . . . . . . . . 23–24
Or how about a genre near and dear to my former teenage heart? Our Sci-Fi imprint features David L. Golemon’s newest Event Group thriller, Ripper; Yasmine Galenorn’s latest Otherworld novel, Shadow Rising; and World Fantasy Award winner Guy Gavriel Kay’s next great epic, River of Stars.

As of spring 2013, that’s no longer the case thanks to the Recorded Books Mystery imprint. Throw Susan Wittig Albert, Nicci French and Bryan Gruley into the mix, and you have a list ready-made for any bookshelf.
