I'm reading... my first ever nora roberts!

About a week ago, upon a recommendation from my mum, whose taste often mirrors mine (the woman owns every book by Dick Francis and LaVyrle Spender - 'nuff said!) I was forced to grab a copy of Nora Roberts "Vision in White". It's the first of a four book series dubbed the "Bride Quartet", and the first Nora Roberts I've ever read. I know, how, right?

Skip to a week later and I'm half way through book four, that's how much I just love love loooove this series!!! I cried three times in the first chapter alone. Seriously.

The four heroines are four long time best friends who run a wedding planning business together from the gorgeous family estate they all but grew up on. The wedding planner thing has been done many times over in romantic fiction but the strength of the women's friendships, their backgrounds, the way the heroes fit into their lives makes this series a total stand out. You wish you were on the inside of their tight clan.

Did I mention I loved this series. Yeah? Well I did!

Buy "Vision in White" here! Today. This instant!!!

This series was the first ever Nora series I read too. And I fell IN LOVE. I was so sad when they ended :(

Ah! now to make your addiction even worse, check out Nora's alter ego, JD Robb. Start with the first one - Naked in Death (I think) to discover Eve Dallas and the totally delicious Roarke.
This series is both a blessing and a curse. Totally addictive, and at last count I think she's written 40in the series with the same characters?
They're really really fab...

I love Nora Roberts...I have read all her books....I tried her series written under her own name JD ROBB and have read a few of them but my love is for her romance novels. She is absolutely incredible....you should try and read her series...I have read them over and over and find them just as exciting as the first time i read them....BORN IN TRILOGY, GALLAGHERS OF ADMORE TRILOGY, THE CIRCLE TRILOGY (vampires with a difference)...I can't part with any of her books...she is really an inspiration to writing romance

Rach introduced me to this series back in 2009 and I read three and had to wait for the fourth to come out. Book one remained my favourite . I see she has a new series out about a B&B ...four blokes this time.

Hey Sally! I have read a few JD Robb and loooove them! But I'd never tried a Nora classic. How, I have no idea! Gonna start the In Death ones all over again methinks.

Oooh Fiona, I'm in love already! Totally agree that Mack and Carter were heavenly. And it was so much fun watching them prep for their wedding through the 3 other books. Delightful.
