Romance Readers Reading Challenges discussion

Oh, oops. I thought it was Zack that needs to me checked off. My mistake.

Now, I am completely done!!!

Woohoo - the Runner-Up! CONGRATULATIONS HINA!!! Snapping close behind on Mojca's tail...

Congrats, Hina.

Way to go, Hina!

Thanks guys!

Congrats Hina and Mojca! I am very impressed! This is a hard challenge.

Congrats, Hina!

Shweet! And congrats Hina! Also,I'm reading Night Pleasures and Kyrian is referred to as Hunter a lot. What's the judgment on that?

Sorry MM - referring to Kyrian as 'Hunter' won't qualify for the name 'Hunter' to be marked off. It's his occupation, not his name. ...Good question though!

Jane, but Kyrian himself tells Amanda his name is Hunter. And she calls him Hunter, until they're...you know...and he tells her "It's not Hunter []. It's me, Kyrian".

Won't your reconsider? ;)

Man, I haven't found a name in more than a week. :(

has Chloe, Samual, Dominic, Matthew. (no Sophie-she doesn't really appear in the book, only mentioned)

I just got it from booksfree for Chloe. It's erotica though for anyone who doesn't like that stuff.

Hello everybody, How's it going? I think I am suffering RRRC reading withdrawal, I am not used to not looking at this page constantly. LOL.

No Reservations-appears to have Brandon, Leah (main character of 1 story), Kendall (not sure how big of a part yet).

I can't find gavin.

But then I can't find my house either, we have no pwoer, water and trees down, so I had to move out.

Oh, you're baaaaad, Hina! Making fun of us poor souls who aren't close to finishing this challenge... Me mad! (J/K, LOL!)

Sorry - It's probably 2 years since I read that book.

Given he tells Amanda that his name is Hunter - I'll accept that :) It'll have to come under the alternate name ruling, where they are known under a different name for a substantial part of the book.

Wow Lindy - hope it all works out! I'll be thinking of you and hoping for the best!

Hey Lindy,

I hope it works out for you and hope you are back home soon! I think I can help with Gavin, I haven't read it, but I think I was told The Perfect Play has a Gavin and I read Her Guardian but its an inspirational romance. The hero is named Gavin. Good Luck!

Yup, The Perfect Play has a Gavin. It's not the hero but a really important character in the book.

LOL!! Not making fun of you all, just bored. I spend too much time looking up books, reading and planning what to read next and all of a sudden not much to do. Work is boring and school is not starting for me for a few more weeks and I just feel like I have too much time on my hands.

Hina, you could read some of my books for me. Maybe that way I'll be able to finish this challenge, LOL.

The follow up to The Perfect Play is Changing the Game and the whole book is about Gavin (which I already had) but surprise, surprise it also has a Victoria and an Aubrey!!! I've been having a tough time finding an Aubrey so it was an unexpected windfall. Plus the book is super hot!

Hey Lindy I hope everything is back to normal soon. I'm assuming you were in the path of the hurricane. Best wishes that you've not been hit too hard with any damage from the storm.

LOL!

Woohoo! Thanks for the good news about Changing the Game - I was already planning on reading it this month, but the extra names are a great bonus!

I used for Gavin. He's a secondary character.

I found my first name in two weeks...and it was only one. Sigh...

I'm still picking up names here and there. It doesn't help my chances when I read fantasy and sci-fi... But I'm reading Play of Passion ATM and will collect a couple of names from that :)

I was just all excited to find a "Lydia" only to realize it's not on the list. Pooh.

Hey Mary - I thought your highlander on your bookcover above had a huge black beard - so naturally had to double-check the cover... It was just a massive shadow on this chest! (Bet the editors etc hadn't thought of that...)

Woot,thank you Jane!

A huge black beard!!! I'm sure that would make him very popular with the ladies, LOLOLOL!

I thought they were downsizing their market appeal considerably! And such a nice chiselled face to cover with thick black hair... *hehehe*

I am back home. I am stuck on Caden, someone said it was in Rogers, Evenlyn The Ghost of Carnel Cove.
Is that true?

Ghost of Carnal Cove has a Mckenna as a female first name, it's the main female character. I don't have it down for Caden though. I have Soul of a Highlander and Tempt Me with Darkness as possibles for Caden but I don't remember who the Caden character is them.

I just looked up Ghost on google books and when I searched for Caden it didn't bring up anything but it wasn't in Ghost of Carnal Cove.

But I did find something cool-it asked me if I wanted to search for Caden in other volumes and when I hit that-it brought a whole bunch of books with a character named Caden:

Twice a Prince by Sherwood Smith
Surrender Bay by Denise Hunter
and a few others. It never asked me that before. Might have helped with some names I had a hard time fining.

Lindy,

I read Ghost of Carnal Cove and I don't remember a Caden in the book, I am pretty sure it wasn't a major character for sure. I read Seduce Me in Shadow by Shayla Black.

P.S. Glad you are back home!

There's a Caden in Angelfire. There's also a William,an Ellie,a Landon and a Nathaniel. :D

Also,I have a question:What if a character founds out they're adopted,or something similar,and their original name is on the list. Would that count? If that character was called by that name?

As long as they are called by that name (their original 'pre-adoption' name) by another character, that is fine.

Jane (PS) wrote: "As long as they are called by that name (their original 'pre-adoption' name) byanother character, that is fine." shweet!! Then
Outside In Has a male Riley, a Logan, a Sadie,a Nolan and a Jacob. :D

I finished the boys names last night, now on to the girls who are missing.

Congrats Lindy!

Congrats, Lindy!

Good on you Lindy!

(...I have to check my list for my last few books...)

Good Job Lindy!

I'm stuck at 111 names...haven't found a name in more than a week!

I have the hardest time finding girl's name, hopefully I'll finish the boys!!

*shamefaced* I keep forgetting to look for names as I read, then have to backtrack a week or two later to figure them out. NOT easy with audiobooks!

I know that I forgotten to list some names probably from audios. I'm sure I've had an Adam and a Cole but I can't remember where. Oh well. I'm still plugging away. I don't know if I'll finish by 10/31 anymore. I keep having books to read for trading on PBS and book clubs. They haven't produced a lot of new names for me the last few weeks. I might have to make a last ditch effort to read from my list of books with known names instead of crossing off as I come to them.
