Penny what in your opinion intrigues your readers most particularly in the romance genre?
Penny Reid
What intrigues my readers (in particular):
1. Smart female characters with an actual personality
2. Honorable male characters with an actual personality
3. Unpredictable plots/stories
4. Characters who behave in believable ways to unbelievable situations
5. Stories that are unapologetically intelligent (no dumbing down)
6. Oddness / novelty
7. Puns
8. Humor that makes them both laugh and cringe
9. Romance that isn't about sex and physicality
10. Leaving a few loose ends, because nothing is ever perfectly resolved in real life.

So, I've finished the awesomness that was Dating-ish and I happened to notice that Marie's brother was named ABRAM. I couldn't help but wonder (squealing in delight) if he's the same Abram from Elements of Chemistry and the upcoming Laws of Physics series? Also, since Abram and Marie are potentially related, is Anna I. Harris from Nobody Looks Good in Leather Pants also related to Marie and Abram?

Hi Penny, I just got done listening to Neanderthal Seeks Human and loved the story along with the narration. Will Neanderthal Marries Human make its way to audio? I'm going to move on to Elizabeth's book in this format, but want to hold off on Quinn and Janie's 2nd book in hopes it will be released as an audiobook. Thanks again for the entertaining read, I'm looking forward to more!
