This week’s theme is Books for a PNR 1st Timer!

Seems that for the these last couple weeks it’s all about bookish first times =)

Paranormal Romance {PNR} is all about the HEAs {Happily Ever Afters} and I LOVE IT, so I’ll gladly share my favorite series in the genre.

*in no particular order

This series is amazing, because not only the smex is steamy but the world building is fantastic!

 

I love Dakota Cassidy’s sense of humor and her Accidental Friends series is so full of it that you will be laughing out loud in NO time =)

 

Larissa Ione rocks!

She not only writes some kick-ass paranormal heroes and heroines, but she just has such a way with words and the world she created is awesome!

 

Sexy Demon-Possessed Gods?

Gena Showalter haz them in spades!

 

Shelly Laureston is a PNR comedic genius! Her books are Extremely HOT and Hilarious all at the same time!

Totally recommend them!
