Woohoo!!! Congratulations!! You did better than I did - I still have a few states missing. New England and the Midwest seem to be my sticking point - they aren't popular locations for most romance novels - at least the ones I've encountered. I will have to check your post for ideas!!

Susan, since we are Goodreads friends you can check my virtual shelves. I have a bunch of shelves for settings by states, countries or even other worlds. So you might find ideas for those hard-to-find states. The state I find most difficult is Utah. 🤷🏻♀️
