Thanks to our sponsors:
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!

Every time I try to vote, it says “loading” and nothing ever happens. Same thing when I hit view results.
Can you do a hard refresh? Hold the control key down while you hit the refresh button?
Now this is where I have problems with this kind of voting. I haven’t read either of the books in the first category (although the Rayburn is sitting in my TBR pile) so can’t vote at all. I did read both books in the second category. They are such different books in tone (one dark, one light) and characterization that it’s hard for me to vote for one over the other — partly because they were so different I can’t really compare them and partly because I liked them both so much and want both to win.
I did the hard refresh. Still doesn’t work. Says “error on page” on the bottom of my screen.
Susan, you should vote for whomever you put on your ballot.
Jennifer, I don’t know what to say. Maybe try a different browser?
Dang. I’m going to call all my 1001 relatives to vote for Rules of Gentility! Ha.
Thanks Gennita! Most of my 1001 relatives are dead but I’ve been asking them anyway.
Okay, I’ll try that and see if it works.
This is going to suck. First of all, I’ll get no work done for days. Second, I second Susan/DC that I haven’t read either book in the first category. Third, I loved loved loved both the Mullany and Hoyt like a squeeing fangirl. Why are brackets always so unfairly seeded? (excepting women’s ncaa brackets, where my Terps are sitting pretty this year).
Damn you, Jan(y)nes and SBs.
For all of you who haven’t read any in the first bracket: Kushiel’s Justice.
As for the second, I chose Lord John, because I haven’t read The Serpent Prince. Now I think I should . . .
Thanks to all who voted for Rules, and big congrats to Elizabeth.
