  2. I've read "Untouched" and despite the controversy, enjoyed it very much. I don't think I've read any of these HPs, but I do like these authors' books very much. Good luck to them all.

  3. Was there a controversy with Untouched? I thought there was only controversy with Claiming the Courtesan.

  5. I quite liked Serendipity. Haven't read any of the others. I usually get dud reads for the R*BY, although I did get a stack of good Blazes by Sara Mayberry last year, and I discovered Melanie La'Brooy the year before that.
