My adventure in Denver,CO on July 9-11 was fantastic. Attending the ROMCON 1st annual convention for Romance readers was an exciting experience to say the least. I can say that it was a great success and I will be attending next year for sure.
The hard work of Michelle, Thea and all the volunteers are noted and appreciated. The BEST time I had was volunteering myself for the “SPEEDDATE an AUTHOR” events. This one on one chat with as many as 12 authors in the same room was fantastic!
During this event I was able to mingle with fellow readers and chat with authors I love; as well as meet new authors I can’t wait to read.
I will be posting interviews with these exciting authors and sharing a little of our funny chats…you almost can’t call them interviews, we were having too much fun!
Here are a few photos I’d like to share with all of you!
 Met Veronica Wolff (Love her!) she was so funny. SO now I have to run out and read all her books! LOL
Lila DiPasqua and I actually met on the shuttle over from the airport. She is a fabulous woman and her 1st book releases August 3rd (check out the widget on the main page)
DL on the left rocking the Black & White Masquerade party with Jenna Maclaine (my new friend and author if the Cin Craven series) & Mary (my RomCon Buddy)

I am an Avid reader and mother of 3 adult children. Now 7 years after creating my first blog, Demon Lover's Book & More; book blogging has become my passion. Creating www.GotFiction.com blog has allowed me the opportunity to review great books, make wonderful friends and meet amazing authors.
It was awesome meeting you at RomCon! Your costume rocked! Can’t wait for next year! Have a blast at Comic Con and give Sherrilyn K. a hug from Maggie Mae! Hope to catch up with you soon!
Five stars are like six-pack abs on a really tan, hunky guy not wearing much. They make us drool, we stroke them (the books, not the guys! - sometimes the guys...) and want to make sweet, sweet love to them. Five stars is the hottest, we mean, highest honor.
Four stars is a total hunkalicious of burning love, but maybe we didn't like his hair for some reason. We still think he's hot, and we're still going to recommend him, we mean, the book, to readers because it's a damn fine ass, we mean book.
Three stars = that awkward guy at the party. He's cute and you know he's cute, and if you look at him the right way, he even looks like Brad Pitt a little, but there are flaws. Surprisingly, he's good in bed (because you got drunk and shit happens).
Remember that - yeah we don't either.
One star is like expecting a somewhat attractive guy and being sent a Grumpy cat meme. We appreciate the effort, but no. This book was not for us. Grumpy cat might want to use it for litter though.
JEALOUS!!
I love you Jeaniene!!!
I simply adore her books! I want Eternal Kiss Of Darkness super badly!
and congrats winners!
Thank you so much. I love the prize!!! Just send you a mail.
It was a blast! It was fantastic meeting you and can’t wait till next year!
Have fun at Comic con this week!
