Specials Ops Romance


There is a genre of romance novels for every fantasy type of guy: princes, foreigners, vampires, construction workers. Whatever you can imagine, chances are good that there is a romance novel with that guy as the protagonist. A year ago the library introduced me to a new genre, romance novels with a highly trained Special Operative Alpha Male hero. These books are always action packed and generally result in me devouring the book in one sitting. Since they are written for and by women, the woman at the center of the story is always extremely capable, in fact sometimes she is also a highly trained operative. Most of these books are series so two weeks may go by without me leaving the house to run through these novels. My favorite authors are:

Suzanne Brockmann (Troubleshooters Series)

Tara Janzen (Steele Street Series)

Lora Leigh

Shannon McKenna

Lori Foster

Roxanne St. Clair

  1. I believe you were the one to introduce me to my first trashy romance novel.. Causing Havoc by Lori Foster. It was excellent- in an "I can't put this book down and I'm a little embarrassed to be reading this on the train, but I can't help myself" kind of way.

    Love the blog Moll

  2. Oooo! These look saucy and fun! Ideal for reading on a Kindle (or Nook) on the train, right Molly?

    Best,
