READERS PREFERENCES

I had an interesting meeting with members of the Desert Hearts Romance Readers, a book club that meets at the Sahara West Library in Las Vegas, Nevada. They shared what they liked and what made them skip pages when reading a romance novel.
Did they prefer sexy love scenes?
Romantic tension?
Vivid descriptions?
Bad boy lovers?
Strong female characters?
Interesting side stories?
A dark plot?
Predictable endings?
I'm looking for feedback from my blog and twitter followers. What makes you pick up a book and be reluctant to put it down? What turns you off?  Do you pay attention to strong writing? Are you excited when the author writes a twist you didn't expect? Do you prefer a series?
As an author, I find this information important, Share your views with me.

PICTURES

Monica,

        I honestly don’t know how the pictures of you at the office party became public. As soon as I heard Munson had distributed copies, I cornered him. He assured me that he received them from Stottlekamp. I traced them back to Bratton who told me Pitman gave him the negatives. Somehow, they turned up on the boss’s desk along with my golf scorecard.

I’m so sorry you were fired. It seems unfair, although Tracerton told me you were making more money at the Black Cat Club in a day than you made here in a month.

All I can do is wish you the best of luck in the future. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Again, I am so sorry.

PS: I made Senior Vice President and play golf in a foursome at the Country Club with the big-guys every Wednesday morning. Go figure.
