Enter your nominations in the comments section. It must be a book released in February or March of 2007 but can be anything from non fiction to fiction to romance to fantasy. We love new authors and we love midlist authors. After two weeks, we’ll take a look at the nominations and pick six books. The six books will then be voted upon by the readers to determine the book club selection. Nominate away.  Jane is a long time romance reader whose passion is, you guessed it, reading. She's currently loving contemporary authors like Sarah Mayberry and Kristan Higgins but her first love will always be the historical. Some of her old time favorites are Amanda Quick and Johanna Lindsey and some of the new favorites are Sherry Thomas, Joanna Bourne and Claudia Dain.

Open Threads at Dear Author. Want to know what new releases are out this month and what readers are excited about reading? Check out the threads below. 
We don’t like to censor comments nor do we endorse the comments of any poster. We do reserve the right to moderate comments but most of the time will not, believing, as Justice Brandeis did, that the greater good is in “more speech, not enforced silence.”
I nominate Beau Crusoe by Carla Kelly.
Of course, Ariana Franklin’s new one, Mistress of the Art of Death, but it’s in hardcover. Do you all prefer books nominated that are only paperback? I know of nothing else that comes out in Feb or March that I’d like to read and discuss. I’ll think on it, take a look at what’s coming out. BRB.
I’ll second the Beau Crusoe nomination.
If you go to Harlequin’s website, there’s a slightly longer excerpt than the one posted at Amazon. The book is 20% off there, too.
I nominate The Art of Seduction by Katherine O’Neal, published Feb 7th
I third the Beau Crusoe nomination.
Has the February book been announced?
There is no February book. To start out, we are only having the book club every other month, so we are skipping over February and going right to March.
I nominate ‘Moon Shadow’ by Lucinda Betts. RT gave it a 4 star review and FAR gave it a recommended read. I think Road to Romance gave it reviewers choice award, too.
I nominate the Carla Kelly book, too.
I nominate Succubus Blues by Richelle Mead.
bam, I tried to order Succubus Blues from Barnes and Noble’s website yesterday (after reading Mrs. Giggles’ raves for Mead’s anthology story), and they told me it wasn’t shipping until March 28th. That may be too late for a March book club discussion, if indeed that is the book’s release date. I know Amazon has February 27th listed as the date the book comes out, but if Barnes and Noble’s date is correct, most people won’t be able to get a copy of the book until April.
Can someone confirm the release date for Succubus Blues?
I second “Moon Shadow.” The B&N site gives it a release date at the end of March.
I’d love to discuss Moon Shadow, and also Linnea Sinclairs Games of Command.
Ooh, Linnea Sinclair’s book would be great!
Hey, Janine! The official release day is March 6. I’m not sure what Amazon was thinking by giving you that date, but presumably they’ll have it figured out by then. And in fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if it sneaks out in late February. Thanks for thinking of me–you too, Bam!
Thanks, Richelle!
I second SUCCUBUS BLUES!
Just a reminder, we are halfway through the nomination period. Keep those nominations coming, please!
[...] your nominations here It can even be an [...]
I nominate Steelflower by Lilith Saintcrow, which releases in March. Or Go Fetch by Shelly Laurenston, which also releases in March. Both from Samhain ;)
And I have this feeling Lover Revealed will be discussed plenty across the blogosphere, so I don’t really have much interest in seeing it discussed here. I’d love to see something different.
I’ve read Succubus Blues and Visions of Heat, so I could even participate in those discussions!
I’d like to nominate Fantasies I, a 4-author anthology from Phaze & the first in the series featuring its talented pool of authors. It is scheduled for early March release.
Okay, I nominate Vision’s in Heat by Nalini Singh Lover Revealed… by JR Ward and Warlord by Elizabeth Vaughan. :D
I’ll have to read the second the in the “War…” series first thought.
Any one of them works for me, but then so does Beau Crusoe and Succubus Blues.
I third Moon Shadow.
I’d LOVE to read more about Moon Shadow!
Moon Shadow is too late. That could be nominated for the May book club selection but I consider the late march release dates more of an April release date. But it sounds like it must be interesting.
How about Midnight eyes by Sarah Brophy?
I nominate Visions of Heat by Nalini Singh
Lover Revealed by JR Ward
Would love to nominate either Visions of Heat by Nalini Singh or Succubus Blues by Richelle Mead.
March book nomination - REAL VAMPIRES HAVE CURVES by Gerry Bartlett
March release from Berkley Trade
Glory is everywoman with fangs.
Jane, you said:
“Moon Shadow is too late. That could be nominated for the May book club selection but I consider the late march release dates more of an April release date. ”
Are you sure about that? Amazon has the release listed as Feb 26, 2007. I’d really love to read it. B&N just says “March 2007″ and the Kensington website says “Feb 27, 2007.”
I hate to miss it in May because it came out in Feb!
[...] We’re nearing the end of the nomination period for our March book club. Now’s your last chance to nominate a book. Any book released this month or in early March qualifies, so don’t hold back. Keep those nominations coming! And post them here. [...]
