Danielle (Love at First Page) Looking for some good contemporary fiction books with love stories, like Atonement, The Time Traveler's Wife, A Very Long Engagement, Water for Elephants,The House at Riverton, The Red Scarf, Cold Mountain, and the Outlander series.

Please no Nicholas Sparks, though. And anything with a little mystery would be great as well.

Thanks!

Looks like you beat me to it. I just got my copy in folks and just dug into it. I suggest you get your free copy by replying to Rose.
It's worth it.

Mickyboy | 2 comments Why not try Burnt Shadows - Kamila Shamsie. 'Burnt Shadows' is a powerful, sweeping epic crossing generations, cultures and continents. Initally set at the end of WW2 in Japan and moves on to India and America. Well worth a read.

Angela (blonde_chick120) | 23 comments If you liked Water For Elephants I would suggest a The Bearded Lady by Sharlee Dieguez. It's one of my favorites!

Kimberly I recommend Elephant Song by Wilbur Smith. That novel made me fall in love with his work.

Marilu I really like Sandra Brown. She has written romance books ( not too mushy and graphic as far as I know. I have only read 2 of them). Her newer stuff I would call suspense I guess. But there is usually a bit of a love story in them. I really enjoyed Standoff, Smoke Screen,Smash Cut, Fat Tuesday,Long Time Coming.

Joy Fielding is another author I really enjoy. I have read all but 4 of her books and they are all really good!


Sandi *~The Pirate Wench~* (thepiratewench) | 3 comments I agree Gabby81...both are on my keeper list! I hope he comes out a 3rd...

Amanda (porterak) Recently I really enjoyed Heat Rises. It is a book based from the TV show Castle on ABC. It is the third in a series. All three are good but this one was my favorite.
