I was given a copy of Valerie Sherwood’s This Loving Torment….and I was hooked……I was 14. I have been reading romance a long time….Never been embarrassed by it either…..Not worried to read a romance book in doctor’s office waiting room…..never have been. Now, I read a lot of mm romance and feel the same way…..if others don’t like it…..well, they don’t have to read it…..LOL!

Thanks for the contest!

I had always been a reader growing up . A few good books and mostly textbooks until I was in college.
Every girl in the dorm was reading this one book and it was so tattered going from one reader to the next. I finally got my hands on it and it was by Kathleen Woodiwiss called SHANNA.
From then on I became a reader of paperback romance books. My favorite authors then were Bertrice Small, LaVeryl Spencer and Rosemary Rogers.

I read anything I could get my hands on when I was growing up. When I reached my teen years, a cousin gave me a romance novel. I couldn’t tell you the name – that was 45 years ago! Anyway, I added romance novels to the genre I read and have read quite a few over the years.

My first romance novel was found in my catholic junior high school basement. I don’t know why it was there but I found it, read it and there was no turning back. I can’t remember much about it other than it was an anthology of romantic suspense , the cover was blue and there was skiing.

I started reading Harlequin romance books when I was about ten. I can’t remember the first one I read but I do remember the first romance author I read when I was thirteen: Jude Deveraux. She’s still my favorite historical romance author.

I started reading historical romance because, everyone wants a love like that, I have been married to the same man for nearly 49 years, so I have found that love. As for the first book I read, I really can’t remember, I’m in my sixties, but I know that it got me hooked! Praise the Lord for all of you authors, without you, dreaming would not be the same. Thank you!

I started reading romance books as a teenager; I think it was an old Nora Roberts paperback that was the first one. I don’t remember it being a cliche romance, but what kept me interested was it’s storyline. It was a oneshot, and it had a satisfying conclusion. I remember thinking, “Okay, I could read more like this” and broadened my reading list. Unfortunately the next book I picked up from a different author had me hooked until I hit the surprise cliffhanger – I was so gutted, but I stubbornly kept reading. 😉

The cover caught my attention, the blurb on the back kept my attention. The book was Silken Savage by Catherine Hart. And the year was 1985. I was 17. I still have that book. 🙂 I haven’t stopped reading yet.

What got me started reading romance book in the first place weren’t reading any book at all. It all started me just browsing the internet when I stumble an e-book, with an interesting summary about a Scottish highlander. Now who would want to miss that? Am I right. So in short as I was reading along i got pull in to the story and when the story ended U wanted more. That’s when I start reading the author’s work and from then I started reading other authors relating to scottish highlander romance. Then I venture to other romance from alien to shifter as long as it’s romance.

My goodness! I started reading before even my teenage years. I honestly can’t remember the very first book. I am blind and read just about every braille book I could get my hands on, and there weren’t too many. I also read in Arabic, and the books that really stood out in my memory were books I have not been able to find anywhere. They were books written by an author called Michel Zevaco. It took me many years to figure out the English spelling. I generally don’t read older books; he lived, I think from 1860-1918. For some reason, I tend to read more recent books. However, Michel’s books were absolutely enthralling. I wish they were translated into English; I would reread them. I wonder if I would love them now as I did then. I read them probably 30-35 years ago. Honestly, I probably started reading romance books before the age of twelve. I suppose parents monitor their kids closely, but no one could really read the books I had, so I got away with it.

I’m 54, no freaking idea what the first book was that I read, prob some YA book (I’d guess S.E. Hinton) I read a lot of harlequin back in the day as those were very easy to buy. Really liked the Gothic mystery ones. I read as a child (I recall getting a bunch of books while sick in HudsonBay and I was in grade one at the time)

It was a nice mental getaway when there was nothing on tv. I could visualize the story in my head. My first book that made a big impession on me was My Name Is Clary Brown by Charlotte Keppel. Got me started on reading.

I was on vacation and the bedroom in my parents’ home had lots of romance books, mostly Harlequin that I could easily ignore. But the top of the dresser had some historical romance and since I love history, I looked through them. When I recognized Fabio on the cover of Johanna Lindsey’s “Defy Not the Heart,” I read the back cover and then the book. I enjoyed it so much and since I’m the person who threw a copy of “Gone with the Wind” across the room because of the unsatisfying ending, I knew I had found my genre (well, that and cozy mysteries that also have a guaranteed happy ending, except for the murder victim). Although I read just about every type of romance novel, historical is still my favorite.

Wow so LONG ago! I was raised by my aunt, she read what she called “bodice rippers!” Sounded very forbidden when I was 15, so I would sneak them in my room and read! I fell in love with romance! 40 years later, I still love romance novels! My thanks to her in all she did for me, and for introducing me to my first love!

I wasn’t much of a reader as I failed grade 2 because I hated read. Lol now I’m a librarian. I first started enjoying reading when I was 16 I read so teen romance. But stopped read novels until I was 34 after my last child and had more time on my hands. I believe I read Hannah Howell highlander series. And now I just can’t find enough time to read. Lol

I had major eye problems for almost 35 years. When my eyes stabilized and I started to read heavily to catch up. I had a part-time job at a library and found book after book I wanted to read. I still haven’t stopped. They were romances and a couple other genres.

I started reading Harlequin’s when I was around 11 (63 now!), so many years of reading romance. The first book that made a big impact was The Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen Woodiwiss – I was studying for finals in college and instead stayed up all night reading that book (I got an A anyway – lol). Have never stopped since!

I started reading romance novels about 10 years ago because, frankly, I have a job where I need to think a lot about complex problems and romance novels are an escape from that. The very first romance book I read was Ransom by Julie Garwood.

I started reading romance books when I was 12 years old. Our neighbors had a collection of Barbara Cartland books that they were willing to loan out. I borrowed the book, The Duke in Danger, and I was hooked! I read all the books they had in their possession, then moved on to Harlequins, Harlequin Historicals, Regency Romance, and whatever else I could find. I’ve been an avid romance reader ever since!

I always love reading, but was always so scared of being caught with a very intimate/sexy cover so I refrained from reading it for quite a long time. After college, I picked up my first romance Wicked Intentions by Elizabeth Hoyt and since then I’ve read over hundreds of titles (including yours). I can’t believe I stayed away for so long! Now, I embraced the love for sexy shirtless men!
