Jennifer Estep’s sophomore book, Hot Mama, was reviewed in Entertainment Weekly (the issue with Johnny Depp on the cover). The book was the only romance reviewed this week and received a grade of B. You can read the entirety of the review at Estep’s blog.
Jane is a long time romance reader whose passion is, you guessed it, reading. Jane also does not like to talk about herself in the third person, but apparently this is the way that this biography thing works (although in a true biography, someone else would be writing this blurb). Anyway, currently Jane loves urban fantasy authors Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews. She's really excited about this year's crop of historicals including Joanna Bourne's The Spymaster's Lady and Sherry Thomas' Private Arrangements and the upcoming Loretta Chase Her Scandalous Ways.
She's looking for a good contemporary author. Email her with a recommendation!

Very cool! Go Jennifer!
I have a subscription to EW and saw that review this past weekend. It was so nice to see a romance get reviewed.
This is also the issue that caused me to squeal when I found out there’s an upcoming sequel to National Treasure as well as to Harold and Kumar. Yes, my taste in movies is absurd ;)
Wahoo for Jennifer!!
Angela - Are you kidding? I’m counting the days until National Treasure II comes out. My hubby is dreading it since he hated the first one. How we stay married is a mystery.
Thanks for the well wishes, guys! I appreciate them. :-)
