This HaBO is from Erica H., who is looking for a Harlequin title (possibly): I am a reference librarian, so the fact that I can’t find/remember the title of this book is killing me. I remember reading it in high school and just loving the angst and brooding hero. It was a Harlequin (maybe Harlequin presents) from the mid to late 90s. The main hero’s name was Jamie, and he was a martial arts expert. The … Continue reading HaBO: Dancer Heroine; Hero Knows Martial Arts →

This HaBO is from Eirene, who is hoping to find a romance she meant read before it disappeared from Scribd: I’m looking for a historical romance that I read once on Scribd before The Great Culling. I completely forgot to catalog it on GR so it’s now lost to me forever. (Also, it’s no longer in my Scribd history.) It’s a book where the hero and the heroine meet in India. I think this was all … Continue reading HaBO: Hero & Heroine Meet in India →

Happy Sunday! This HaBO request is from Aishwarya, who is trying to find a book based on this one scene: So, I read an excerpt from this book…I’m not sure where.

They talk about random things before one of them picks up … Continue reading HaBO: Heroine Mocked for Her Poetry →

This HaBO request comes from Kay, who is trying to find a YA paranormal romance: Back in high school, I read this YA paranormal romance. I finished it, but the romance never had a proper conclusion. I assumed that the book had a sequel to it, but alas, the library did not have the book I was looking for. I didn’t even like the book that much, but damn it, I want a proper ending! … Continue reading HaBO: Motorcycle Ridin’ Ghost Hero →

This HaBO request is from Judy, who wants to find an older Harlequin: I’m looking for what I think is an old Harlequin because I remember the book was white with a circle picture in the middle?

This HaBO request comes from Kathy, who hopes to be reunited with her first romance novel: When I was around 13, I picked up my very first romance novel at a bed and breakfast.

Since I wasn’t supposed to have it in the first place, I never asked my mom where … Continue reading HaBO: Heroine Named After Teddy Roosevelt →
