The following two authors write romances. I have read all of these
books. Millie Criswell's book are light, quick, fun reads. Hope Tarr's
books are romance/ historical fiction.

Millie Criswell:

with her huge (and annoying) Italian family, Mary sets out to open a

complicated when she falls for food critic Dan Gallagher, an
exasperating man who not only hates Italian food, but also had given her
a scathing review in his column."

"When Annie encounters Joe, the man who broke
her heart years earlier when he became a priest, she decides it is time
to get over him and move on, but Joe has other ideas as he prepares to
leave the priesthood and pursue his beloved Annie."

Trials of Angela
"After dumping her cheating fiancée, Angela DeNero
finds herself unexpectedly attracted to ruthless attorney John Franco,
but she wonders if John will want to stick around when he learns some of
her secrets."


Hope Tarr:

Tempting
