NEW POLICY: Well, the day has come…I knew I could not continue this blog indefinitely as I’ve done for over a year, for it simply takes too much time. Unfortunately, I’ve been neglecting several important things, including my website, www.bestromancenovelstoday.com, because I don’t have time to keep up with it. Starting next week, I’ll post only books (from any publisher) that meet Best Romance Novels Today’s criteria (see "New Policy" in the sidebar). This will accomplish two things—I’ll actually start keeping up with my website, and my blog posts here will get considerably shorter, which is what I need, for sanity’s sake.
It is hard for me to admit I can’t do everything I want to do! I love The Wild Rose Press, and all of its wonderful authors, and I wish I could continue to solely promote this fantastic press, but I can’t. I will still continue to post Wild Rose Press books, of course, but only those which meet BRNT’s criteria. If an author has a book that meets these criteria, please feel free to email me at reviewfinders@yahoo.com, and I will be happy to post it.
God bless,
Jennette
