SEP creates great meets. And HEAS. I’m with Margaret about the awesome end of HEAVEN, TEXAS. “The New York Yankees!”

I like a lot of Karen Marie Monings first meets. She likes to make them as uncomfortable as possible. Most of her heroines are present day women and the men are scottish warriors from a few hundred years back. In the Dark Higlander, she breaks into his apartment and is under his bed snooping with her tush sticking out when he finds her.

I owe you an email, Karen. Let me get through Halloween!

I love the first meet between Roarke and Eve in JD Robb’s Naked In Death, the first book in the series.

Love this topic! Question: How long after the “cute meet” do you think it takes to know the guy is “the One”?

LOL, KarenR. Have you notice how quiet Kim has been all afternoon? Her lips are sealed! Possibly stapled.

Rachel, that First Meet in reality for Son of the Morning is wonderful! She lets him out of the dungeon after she’s gone back in time.

“Come out. If you can.” Linda Howard sizzles.

Lots of books I haven’t read in these posts. Nice to get good recommends from trusted goddess sources.

Kim – you weren’t drunk and fighting too? Now we’ll have to find something else to blackmail you for…

I don’t favor one way or the other. It all depends on the characters. I love Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy. I, also, love Robert and Victoria in Everything and the Moon.

I, honestly, don’t really remember when dh and I first met. We met at college. My roomate’s then bf lived on the same floor as my dh, and she pushed him to hang out with our group of friends. At some point we started talking to each other. We’ve been together ever since then – 16 years – married 13.

oh, and my own first meet. I was 14, and on vacation and saw this really cute boy. i fell half in love at that moment. Took 10 years for us to finally realize we were meant to be together.

Karen–yup, that’s Mike and Samantha. Love that book. HA! I was on the sidelines watching him stand there all smirky and arrogant. *le sigh*

I don’t know who to agree with
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Gentle Rogue. Johanna Lindsey got me started on my romance novel obsession and James and Georgiana’s bickering is so much fun
I actually was rereading Lord of Scoundrels last night. Love it. Karen you must read it
The first meeting of Kate and Anthony in Julia Quinn’s The Viscount Who Loved Me is hilarious.
Rebecca and Matt Julia’s beauty Queen is also one of my faves… you stole my paper and my quesadilla… … Although it was Payton Douglas from Highlander in Love who inspired my tattoo pick
I’m gonna stop because I could keep going for a while
