Quick Contest: Five Winners!

I'm busy getting ready for the launch of The Amorous Education of Celia Seaton on Tuesday so this will a quick, short contest. This time I'm going to pick FIVE winners. Each one will receive a copy of A Romance Sampler, a gorgeous book of excerpts from seventeen different romance authors. I defy anyone to read these and not add to her TBB/TBR list. (Evil plan).  IN ADDITION, I'll select a book from my stash for each winner. So tell me your favorite kind of romance (historical, contemporary, paranormal, etc) and a few of your favorite authors. I'll try and chose something you will like. It'll be fun for me and hopefully fun for you if I pick well.

So comment here (with email address), or enter via my contest entry form. I’ll select five winners at random on July 26th.

Contest ends July 26, 2011. Open to residents of USA and Canada only. Void where prohibited. No purchase required, though certainly appreciated on July 26th when my new book comes out. (With apologies for the shameless self-promotion)

Hi Miranda,

My favorite genre of books, are Historical Romance & Fantasy. I have been away from reading for far too long. After reading my first Historical after 15 years I have to say after reading The Dangreous Viscount you sucked me in.

My favorite authors so far are:
Of course you! I can go on and on what I love about your writing but I have already told you on FB. :)
Samantha James (Currently reading The Sins of the Viscount Sutherland-very good so far.)
Joan Balser (Passions of the Realm was the first Historical I read 20+ years ago and I think I read this book 5 times I loved it so much.

Non-Hsistorical Favs:
Charlaine Harris
P.C. Cast
Stephen King

I can't wait to read The Amorous Education of Celia Seaton.

Historical is my favorite place to visit. I feel most at home there. However, whatever you choose and whichever author will be wonderful. I'm open to them all.

I have so many books I love I'm not sure where to start! I have recently discovered Maria Snyder who is wonderful and I love Nora Roberts, particularly her books that have Ireland as the setting. Nicole Dicksons novel Casting Off is on my favorites list, as well as Deborah Harknesses new novel Discovery of Witches which is amazing. Gone With the Wind, Sense and Sensibility..classic romances. And I love Georgette Heyer, which is romance with very subtle humor that can make me laugh. Janet Evanovich is very different than Georgette Heyer but I love her writing. Those make me laugh so hard I tear up! and of course I own all your books but the one that comes out tomorrow! Can't wait to read it!
Thank you for the chance~ Holly Senecal carls31@myfairpoint.com

I love this contest! Between you commenters, and those who entered via the contest form, I'm getting a wonderful idea of your preference in books. Special thanks to those who named me as a favorite. I'm incredibly flattered to be included in such terrifically talented company. I'm going to have such fun tomorrow, after the five winners are randomly selected, picking books to match the winners' tastes.
