Filling in For Stella

Hello everyone!

Sorry, but I'm not Stella Cameron, not even close.

Stella was to post today. And she planned to. Then the blog got all snippy and locked everyone out, and Stella is under deadline and packing for Atlanta and generally overworked - so like any good, loyal, I-owe-you-bigtime-friend, I wagged my hand in the air and said, "Let me, let me!"


It's not often that I get a chance to do something for Stella. Yet, as most of you know, Stella often does for others. That's just her, the core of the woman. Stella writes some gritty, hold-onto-your-seat suspense, but she's a soft, caring, pretty phenomenal woman.
I'm so glad I can do this blog for her - and about her!
Or at least, about her books - but hey, you got something personal and super nice to add, go for it!
Here are a few comments from dedicated readers.

"I have a love affair with the New Orleans LA setting. I love Stella's Bayou Books which are set there.

She keeps readers on the edge of their seats with these tightly woven romantic suspense titles. The reader has a genuine feel of being in LA while reading her books. I look forward to each new release in this "series" and hope she plans many more books set in this local.

I suppose if I were to pick a favorite book by her it would have to be A GRAVE MISTAKE as it is the last one in this series that I have read.
It seems though that each new book in this series becomes my favorite so Body of Evidence will probably soon replace this one." Barbara Smith

"It is really difficult to pick one favorite book, but my favorite books of hers are the ones she sets in Louisiana.

COLD DAY IN JULY
KISS THEM GOODBYE
NOW YOU SEE HIM
A GRAVE MISTAKE
BODY OF EVIDENCE

Stella's word usage is so evocative of her settings that I feel transported from mundane Ohio to a place where words such as "sultry" and "secrets" naturally go together." Julie Stroup

For me, the Rossmara Quartet with FASCINATED, CHARMED, BRIDE, BELOVED and THE WISH CLUB is always a sure bet when I want to revisit old friends and be enthralled all over again.

BUT... TRUE BLISS will always have a special place in my heart.

I adore high school sweethearts, I really do.
Sebastian and Bliss came to life, and I love them still.
We all talk about Stella's books a lot on my email loop.
Here's what good friend, Patti Fisher, had to say about TRUE BLISS.

"Wow! What a gripping, suspenseful-and hot, story. Stella Cameron has delivered again in TRUE BLISS and proves why she is one of the best in Romantic Suspense today." Patti Fisher

Donna, an Amazon reader reviewer, said about KEY WEST, "Romances that are also suspense thrillers are not my usual genre, yet I was powerfully drawn to the exotic setting of this story and its likeable characters. One of the things that makes this book special is that the story is rather unique, distinquishing it from all the run-of-the-mill books out there that are different variations on the same theme."

So... what's your favorite Stella Cameron book - and why?

While Stella is out of town, we'll be able to chat about her all we want, and she won't even be here to blush over it!
