I devoured all of her books early on in my historical romance reading career. Her, Teresa Medeiros, Lisa Kleypas, Kat Martin, Katherine Kingsley, Diana Palmer, Virginia Henley, Johanna Lindsey, Andrea Kane and a bunch of other authors who are escaping my pea brain at the moment.

I must have these authors if I am stranded on an island. In fact, please send me Pamela Clare in person.
