I'm on blog tour this month and I've written ten blog already and well, I was running out of ideas.

awesome.
(Sarah Bauman 2:51pm June 25, 2013)

Btw, i matched up with author Jane Graves.
(Sarah Bauman 2:52pm June 25, 2013)

I am a mix of everything. I guess that explains my large collection of books and multiple authors. Variety is the spice of life ;)
(Carla Carlson 3:00pm June 25, 2013)

I am a true mix! This must be accurate for me because I like ALL of the above authors.
(Cheryl Castings 3:13pm June 25, 2013)

Fun quiz! Matched up to Lori Wilde. Guess I'll just have to
get some more of her books! :-) Would be awesome to win!
(Mary Ellsworth 3:22pm June 25, 2013)

I love fun quizzes! Mine was a toss-up between Jill Shalvis
and Lori Wilde. This works for me, since they're 2 of my
favorites! I own almost every book from both authors! :)
(Michelle Harlan 4:40pm June 25, 2013)

I had mostly D's. LOVE M*A*S*H!!!! Although cowboys are hot, I live in
Indiana so they are more farm boys here. Still very cute!!!
(Kari Thomas 4:44pm June 25, 2013)

M*A*S*H* is my fav...cause of Hawkeye. Whoooooboy! :-)
(Donna Flint 4:55pm June 25, 2013)

I picked a variety and it's true, I read a lot of contemporary
romance. Thanks for the contest.
(Michele Hayes 5:16pm June 25, 2013)

That was a lot of fun. I matched with Jill though.
Sorry Lori. I've read all your books. I have a few of
Pills left to go.
(Shirley Thomas 5:17pm June 25, 2013)

I'm a "C" girl. That was fun, thanks.
(Deb Pelletier 5:24pm June 25, 2013)

That was a fun quiz but geared for females. My girlfriend picked mostly D's so that would put her with you, Lori. She likes cowboy romances. Great contest!
(Rich Cook 6:49pm June 25, 2013)

I am all over the board but picked 3-B's so that must mean Kristan Higgins! What a clever, creative & unique giveaway, Lori!
(Susan Coster 6:55pm June 25, 2013)

Well mine was a bit all over the place. Can't decide if that
means I love all kinds, or simply cannot make up my mind, or
it takes a little of each different man to make up my ideal.
I seem to be more of a cowboy type of gal, but hey put him
in a Black Stetson or a Tux...wowza!!! Fun insight quiz.
Thanks for all the great ideas and terrific writing. Always
a big fan! And really enjoying the new read. You go girl!!!
(Linda Epstein 7:04pm June 25, 2013)

I picked all different choices, so I guess I like all contemporary romances! Thanks for the quiz :)
(Juli Lear 7:09pm June 25, 2013)

I picked a variety of answers. Doesn't surprise me because I
love all sorts of fiction and romances.
(Maggie Elwood 7:14pm June 25, 2013)

Great bunch of authors on that list! I picked out you & Jill
Shalvis, and the Kristan Higgins entries make sense, too!
Cute!
(Sharlene Wegner 7:31pm June 25, 2013)

My choices say I love contemporary romances.
(Mary C 8:04pm June 25, 2013)

Shoot, what if you got two 'fs' and the rest was a random mash of the others none of them repeating. Guess that does make sense though, since I'll read anything with words... :)
(Danielle Kimerer 8:09pm June 25, 2013)

My answers too were all over the place! I am taking it to
mean that all the authors listed were amongst my favorites
because I do love them all! Now I have to leave here and go
to the store to get your new book!

Sandi
(Sandi Shilhanek 8:49pm June 25, 2013)

Fun quiz! My answers varied, though. I guess I didn't need the quiz to tell
me I'm an avid reader of contemporary romance!!! Lol
(Linda Brennan 8:50pm June 25, 2013)

I guess I am a match for all the authors because I didn't have any one letter outweighing the rest. That was a fun quiz - thanks for sharing.
(Shelley Pierce 8:50pm June 25, 2013)

Mostly F's so I guess I'm a Jane Graves kind of gal!

great reminder.
(Laura Gullickson 9:13pm June 25, 2013)

I had a variety of letters and a few questions that was hard to really pick
just one.
(Ora Amis 9:17pm June 25, 2013)

Wahoo, mostly D's! Great bunch of authors but I'm thrilled I'm
a match to Lori!!
(Ada H. 2:44am June 26, 2013)

I was all over the board, so that would pretty much describe me!! My taste in Authors vary, as does your choices in Authors!! They're all good, yours truly included!! I'm looking forward to reading your latest book, because I'm curious to find out why that good-looking cowboy is looking down at his feet!! I love the cover, and I'm sure that I'll love what's between the covers even more (no pun intended - maybe)!! The quiz was fun, but the book will be more fun to start off my Summer with!! It will definately be on my TBR list!!
(Peggy Roberson 9:07am June 26, 2013)

Interesting! I'm a mix of a's, b's and e's - so I guess I have
eclectic tastes!
(Margay Roberge 9:21am June 26, 2013)

I had D's except for one. That was a fun quiz, we need to do that more often.
(Rita Wray 9:22am June 26, 2013)

I am a mix... That means I love all the writers! :)
(May Pau 10:17am June 26, 2013)

This was a fun post. I got a mixed bag but did manage to get 2 Ds and 2 Fs. (Darn that sounds like my very old report cards. LOL) So it looks like Lori and Jane Graves are ahead in my likes.
(Annetta Sweetko 11:20am June 26, 2013)

Thanks for your quiz and giveaway, Lori. I didn't get mostly anything. Anyhow, my kind of contemporary romance is whatever I'm in the mood for. Good luck with the release of "All Out of Love"!
(Mary Anne Landers 1:29pm June 26, 2013)

I matched with Susan Mallery.
(Cheryl McEwen 1:51pm June 26, 2013)

Thanks for this quiz and giveaway Lori. I am a mix. Best
wishes.
(Sharon Berger 2:42pm June 26, 2013)

Awesome quiz for a giveaway! I got mostly b's. Its Kristan
Higgins for me! I still want to say I like a variety though.

(Anthonia Sharp 10:13am June 27, 2013)

I was a bit all over, but mostly "e" so I guess I aim for Christie Craig, but am an avid reader!BTW: I married a reformed bad boy and he is worth the effort!! This was fun! Thanks!
(Val Stark 10:27am June 28, 2013)

I'm a D girl. I especially love the first question. I think you need to be old
enough to remember it. It's not in re-runs like most shows. I have a crush
on Alan Alda to this day.
(Susan Falkler 11:15am June 28, 2013)

Great quiz! I had all D's. Guess, I'm a Lori Wilde book lover! Maybe, that's why I have two of your books right now to read! Can't wait to get my hands on your new one. I'm a cowboy romance book lover.
(Linda Luinstra 5:35pm June 28, 2013)

I guess I'm a match for your books because I was mostly d's
(Ann Sheiring 12:20pm July 1, 2013)

Variety is the spice that makes dishes better. So, of course,
the quiz shows me as an avid reader. I used to read by
flashlight as a child, because we had to turn the lights out
at night.
(Alyson Widen 8:53pm July 1, 2013)

I'm a tie between the B's and C's with an E mixed in there! I read as much
as I can with little ones running about and I try to mix it up every now and
then. One of my favorite things is finding an awesome new series! Thanks
for the quiz!
