Smart Bitches Trashy Books | All of the romance, none of the bullshit.

Ahoy! First to offer the heroine’s name, author’s name, and title of the book in the comments receives - the Smart Bitch Title™.

Into the light of the dark black night

Strong, gifted woman seeks equally strong and noble man from a completely different culture and society to help me face a cold, deadly, and frightening challenge, and stay by my side as I come to terms with my chilling gift and lifelong responsibility and move from first love to true love. You must be willing to watch me die and trust that although I’m cold and lifeless, I will be back to be with you.

Congrats and felicitations to Holly! She has correctly guessed this week’s Lonely Heart - Jude Frances Murray from Nora Roberts’ Jewels of the Sun.

Kneel, Holly, and arise a member of the peerage with your new, spiffy Smart Bitch Title™. Be sure to use it when trying to score a table at the hot new seafood restaurant.

You ready? It’s that time again - Friday contests, and Friday videos, too. Gotta love the start of the weekend. You know the drill - first to come up with the title of the book, the name of the author and the name of the heroine wins a Smart Bitch Title™.

Bam! Right in the Kisser!

Bookish, curious and restrained psychologist seeks wind-swept romantic man to sweep me off my feet and reveal my adventurous, romantic soul. I’m in a Eire cottage by the sea, looking to find out who I am in the next six months. You can charm me with stories and never-ending glasses of wine, but really it’s your time and attention that will win my heart, along with those magic words. Without the words? I’ll break your damn nose.

Charis correctly guessed the answer to the Personal Ad Contest a couple of weeks ago, and lordy lord I’m finally remembering to post her prize. Kneel, Charis--in fact, all fours might be a good thing here--for we Smart Bitches dub thee:

Hey kids,

Once again, it’s time to play one of our sporadically-run Personal Ad Contests, wherein the first person to correctly guess the title of the book, the author and the name of the heroine (don’t forget that last, for the love of sweet baby Ganesh) will receive one of our impeccable and always-dignified Smart Bitch Aristocratic Titles.

Ready? GO!

Single scatterbrained female seeks to seduce and marry childhood hero and good friend who endowed me with a singularly unimaginative root vegetable nickname. The trick is getting him to see I’m all grown up; coshing on the head with a jug while we’re about to do the dirty deed should work, right? Right?
