Hooray! It’s finally here, the special blogiversary hop for the wonderful Reading Romances website! When the blog hop link posted, I jumped on it because I’ve had so much fun with the Small Blogs Big Giveaway events as well as the 2012 Reading Romances challenges. (I know, we’re not quite through March yet, but it’s a great group of readers who love romance novels).
To help celebrate, I’m giving away ebooks and a bit of swag (open INT and entry details are below), but first, as usual and in the spirit of a fabulous pre-party, there’s a cool angle for this blog hop:
What drink would I recommend you enjoy with one of my romance novels?
Hmmm… at first glance, my answer might seem obvious. In the Shadows of Justice novels, caffeine and ‘real’ coffee is considered contraband by regulation-happy government. So if you’re reading any of the five Shadows of Justice novels, I’d suggest you treat yourself to a coffee, however you like it best whether that’s an iced mocha or straight black. Now, if you’re in the mood for something stronger while you’re reading these adventures, I’d go recommend a good margarita. (on the rocks of course)
As you might have guessed,The Matchmaker’s Mark is a bit different, as it’s a paranormal romance novel set in contemporary Charleston, SC (one of my favorite cities). With that story and it’s much lighter tone, tea (preferably grown in Charleston) would be a perfect pairing. In the mood to indulge your escape reading, then pair this book with a Pinot Grigio – or pop the cork on a bottle of Champagne!

It really depends on the book…some need a slow sipping glass of wine, or champagne, and some need a beer!! Great giveaway as always Regan!!!
That’s the truth, Nikki. Which is one reason I found this blog hop angle so much fun. In the upcoming Matchmaker’s Curse I made Blue Moon Pale Ale a fave beer of one of the characters.
In the Spring & Summer, a nice cold glass of sweet tea helps cool off the heat of the books…LOL
In the Fall & Winter, a cup of hot chocolate or a cup of spiced tea helps keep me as warm as the books. 🙂
Thanks for the contest.
Great answer, Michelle! 😉 Thanks for hopping this way!
Blog Hopping! Woohoo!

My favorite thing to drink while reading a HOT romance is Iced Tea and Amaretto. Yum!

I would recommend Umeshu on the rocks! It is a fab drink to go with a book. Although I do like coffee too.
An icy cold diet coke.
I love something hot when I read, whether it be coffee or tea. different variations of those work as well.

I love a good cup of steaming hot tea to go with a steamy book!
Thank you for this giveaway!

I either drink a strong cup of coffee or a cup of hot tea.
Depends on when I am reading. In the morning I love to sit with a hot cup of coffee. If it is later at night maybe some Irish Creme or Malibu and coke. I like to mix it up a bit

I prefer flavored coffee in the morning – iced tea on a summer afternoon and hot choc or hot tea in the evening.

Really depends on the book. But you will usually find me with a diet coke or water unless its a special occasion or night out.
To be honest I’m good with a Pepsi. But from time to time I’ll have a nice cup of tea.
I like to drink a glass of wine while reading. Now if it’s cold or rainy, I would like to drink coffee with a shot Kaluha!
Thanks,

It always depends on the weather. Tonight it’s going to be white wine because that’s what I opened before temps dropped again. But hot tea is always a favorite.
nice tall glass of sweet ice tea
Hot tea
Great HOP! I prefer coffee with my books. I would say wine, but it tends to make me tired while reading, and coffee gives me the boost I need to stay awake! Thank you for offering your stories to read. They sound very interesting.
I’m a huge coffee fan, in case there was ever any doubt. 😉
I dont like alcohol but i love sweet tea. Im always drinking it. 🙂 Thank you!
