Julie James offers A LOT LIKE LOVE Back to Blog
Update: Thank you for sharing the books you love–so many wonderful books. 😉 A random winner was selected, and the commenter who will receive A LOT LIKE LOVE is…Amber M. Congrats!
Do you remember the first time you fell in love–um, not with a person, but with a book? I remember. The first book I fell in love with was THE PIRATE by Jayne Ann Krentz. That book totally hooked me on romance.
Right now, I’m hoping to hook you on a story. The fabulous Julie James has offered up a copy of her new book, A LOT LIKE LOVE, to one Release Party commenter. Here’s the scoop on the book:
THE FBI WANTS HER COOPERATION.
As the daughter of a billionaire and the owner of the city’s top wine store, Jordan Rhodes is invited to the most exclusive parties in Chicago. But there’s only one party the FBI wants to crash: the charity fundraiser of a famous restaurateur, who also happens to launder money for the mob. In exchange for her brother’s release from prison, Jordan is going to be there—with a date supplied by the Bureau.
AGENT MCCALL JUST WANTS HER.
As the top undercover agent in Chicago, Nick McCall has one rule: never get personal. This “date” with Jordan Rhodes is merely an assignment—one they’re both determined to pull off even if they can’t be together for five minutes before the sarcasm and sparks begin to fly. But when Nick’s investigation is compromised, he and Jordan have no choice but to pretend they’re a couple, and what starts out as a simple assignment begins to feel a lot like something more. . .

I read this book and it awesome! Love Julie James books. No need to enter me. But I want to say the last book I fell in love with were Everyone Loves a Hero by Marie Force
I just finished Flying Blind by Deborah Cooke and loved it!! Can’t wait for more dragon stories.

I read and fell in love with Kiss of Snow by Nalini Singh. This is one of my very favorite series!
I love that series, too!
Actually totally falling in love with the book I’m almost finished with here. My Irish Warrior by Kris Kennedy!
May Banks – No Place to Run. I’m a big romantic suspense fan and the story/characters drew me in and lingered. Surprising to me since the heroine was pregnant and I’m NOT a fan of books with babies/pregnant women. But the action and adventure was great.
Well, it is “Maya” Banks, not May……..
Last one that I was totally in love with was Joey W Hills Vampire Instinct…. I got the arc and OMG it was wonderful.
So many great books listed here! I’ve read quite a few–and the others are now being added to my TBR list. 😉
I just read When Beauty Tamed the Beast by Eloisa James. I’d never read anything by her before, but now I want her backlist.
Ditto – we posted at the same time – LOL
The last book I read which I absolutely loved and is a keeper was Eloisa James’s When Beauty Tamed the Beast. The hero is based on TV’s House and it was very entertaining.
Ilona Andrews Kate Daniels series; Kate & Curran finally get together!!! But Kate, of course, still has doubts. I can read them over & over again!!!
is it bad if i say each book i fall in love with…its like they live in my heart then i move on to the next book and that makes me swoon and fall. like there was trinity and then when a mullo loves a women…and so many more that just make me swooonnn. how can you not fall in love with what that writer is projecting if you can see yourself as the character
The last book I loved is Naked in Death by JD Robb. I just finished the second book called Glory in Death and I fall harder each time for Roarke. That man does bad things to me. Good thing there’s so many books in this series. I’ll need my Roarke fix!
I LOVED Extreme Exposure!
I read the A Lot Like Love excerpt. Wow! I think I just fell in love with Julie’s book!
A Storm of Pleasure by Terri Brisbin
Re-read for me recently, HOTTER AFTER MIDNIGHT. Love me some Colin 🙂
Untamed Highlander by Donna Grant
I took a shot on a new (to me) author in Thea Harrison and fell hook, line and sinker into her book Dragon Bound. It was so good that by the end of chapter one, I knew I had found a new “must buy no matter what her name is on” author!
The last book I fell on love with is Donna Grant’s Untamed Highlander. I love all of her Highland Warriors.
I just finshed Passion by lauren kate and reaaly liked it . Now Im reading Deeper Than midnight Love Those vampires in Lara Adrian books! This book sounds really good love what a read thanks for sharing.
ohh last book I read and loved would have to be SPECTYR from Phillipa B. For romance it would be In Bed With a Highlander-love the kilted.
My last hot and happy read was Magic on the Hunt by Devon Monk. Love the series.
Would have to be Faking It by Elisa Lorello and A Courtesan’s Guide to Getting your Man by Celeste Bradley and Susan Donovan – these were two books I couldn’t put down.
It was last month, Love Me Knots by Dee Tenorio *sigh* as well Hearts in Darkness by Laura Kaye- amazing books to be sure.

I just finished The Murder of King Tut by James Patterson and it really surprised me. Lots of romance and suspense.
Chasin Eight by Lorelei James
The last book that I fell in love with is DEATH’S SWEET EMBRACE by O’hara. It is an awesome urban fantasy.
I just got through reading Fated by Rebecca Zanetti and I loved it. The whole fated mates thing totally works for me, plus she gave me both vampires and shifters in one book!
Ann Aguirre’s YA book “Enclave” had me hooked and considering that I was staying away from post-apocalyptic reads, that’s saying something.
As for “A Lot Like Love”, I love the Jed Hill cover!
i just finished wicked nights with your lover by sophie jordan is such a great historical romance
I loved Nalini Singh’s Kiss of Snow; part of the psy-changeling series. it was absolutely great.
Laurie London’s BONDED BY BLOOD
There are so many books I have read and loved, including your Deadly series. The most recent one would be Crown of Crystal Flame by C L Wilson. This Fantasy Romance series caught me by surprise.
