She has an extensive booklist. She is pretty popular with her series books, but she has a few stand-alones I believe. Also she has plenty of novellas that are part of several anthologies.

Drunk already? *grins*

Yes yes yes... I'm in!
I'll be reading Tempting the Beast since I already had it scheduled for another challenge.

oh! and I'm starting as a B.

Hey Rossy... you got Street game by Christine Freehan and it's Lora Leigh.

I did not receive any invite for the drinking part of the challenge!
Where do I sign up for that?

Note on the reading order: I just picked up one of her books randomly (Begal's heart) and it read just fine without all the backstory, because there is enough in the book.

Ask Rossy. She started early, mumbling its 5 pm somewhere a couple of hours ago. LOL!

Agreed! I have been reading them out of order, and have had no problem understanding what's going on.

C - Totally new to this author. Will see how I like it.

Gonna go with Wild Card

For the first time a FAC that I've read before! I'm somewhere between an A and a B. I like everything I've read except the Breed series. Those I didn't care for much. Your call which category I fall into. I'll be reading Nauti Nights and probably Nauti Dreams as well as I just bought them last week.

I'm in, of course! Like Photojim, I'm somewhere between an A and a B. Unlike him, I'm a fan of the Breeds series, but I don't care for her other stuff. :) I'll be reading Bengal's Heart.

I'm new to the author so a C and I will be reading Wild Card (which I chose as part of the June Reading Challenge too).

I'm in. Definitely an A and will read Nauti Deceptions.

I knew it was a bad idea to stay online while drinking beer!LOL
Both author's are so similar, they're starting to blur together.

I'll be sending an invite when i start reading Nauti Deceptions. Dina made up this great game where you take a drink every time certain key words come up in the book. LL & CF are known for them.

On a side note, i started around 3pm? It's to hot here so i couldn't help myself.

Rossy ~*~ Ehrotic ~*~ wrote: "Dina made up this great game where you take a drink every time certain key words come up in the book."

No, no, no. Can't take credit for that. MelissaB is the one who introduced me to the drinking game and taught me how to better appreciate LL's & CF's books, LOL.

I'm A and will read Street Game.

I am a C on her as an author, but hope to read Coyote's Mate.

Jin wrote: "I'm A and will read Street Game."

Jin, Street Game is from Christine Feehan and we're supposed to read a Lora Leigh book in this challenge.

Rossy, Rossy, do you see what you've started? Don't drink and post, that's my motto. LOL!

I am in - as a C, I have no idea what I will read but I will let you know later.

I am an A and I will be reading . Love her, especially her breeds and her bound hearts series.

Oh, and I would also love to get in on the drinking game part of this challenge!

I'm C, totally new to her, although she's been on my TBR list for awhile.

I'll read Wild Card.

Oooops, my bad! Jin, just blame it on the cover since they are both yellow.LOL

Im so in! Oh wait...since I'm in her Bound Hearts challenge. I'm going to go with Nauti Boy. I've heard good things about it. Oh sorry I'm an A.

Agreed. You dont have to read it in order, but she will occasionally give updates about characters from previous books so, just a warning for those people who want to be spoiler free.

I'm in...Category C (New to Me)

I'm C - Totally new to this author. Will see how I like it.
And I'll take Elizabeth's Wolf if I can find it

I'm in! I'm a "C". I don't care for paranormal, so I'm going to read Wild Card

I am a "C" and I am going to try Wild Card!

I'm a "C" - totally new to author. I already put down that I would read Tempting the Beast for the June RRRC challenge, so good timing for me ;)

I'm a little hesitant to read her because I've heard some strong negatives... But, I'm willing to give it a try.

I am in. My first time doing this. I am C, she is totally new to me. I will read Tempting the Beast

I´m in and I`m a B. Have some of her books in my TBR and don´t know which I`ll read yet.

I'm in. I'm a C, totally new to this author. I'll have to see what the library has before I pick my book.

ok, not sure yet what I am going to be reading - narrowed it down to Tempting the Beast or Nauti Boy.

A - Hidden Agendas or Killer Secrets

Rossy...I have to say I’m a little disappointed, how come you didn't tell me about this fabulous game?
You know how much I struggled last month with Freehan’s Shadow Game… if I had known about this wonderful “approach” for that kind of reading I’m sure I would’ve liked it sooo much more.
Although I probably would’ve been drunk by chapter three…

You, Dina and MelissaB are brilliant!, your contribution is like Einstein’s relativity theory.. but, you know, useful.
LOL

OMG...I thought it was a SEALs book I hadn't read yet!

Hello again, Yz! I'm a B and I'll be reading

I'm a C, I think I'll probably read: Wild Card

I'm a C. I think I will read Tempting the Beast.
