I love me a delicious contemporary romance and Talk Me Down by Victoria Dahl sounds wonderful.

They’re having a fabulous contest over at Dear Author so go check it out. Last time I participated in this I bought Flat Out Sexy by Erin McCarthy (the first book profiled in the Save the Contemporary campaign) and my gosh! Such a wonderful book! Seriously one of my favorite of 2008. Go forth and buy it if you haven’t already…

So when I hear the rumors that contemporary books are on a major decline, no one is buying them (readers and editors/publishers/agents), well that makes me sad.

Thanks to Dear Author and Smart Bitches, they’re out to save the contemporary romance genre by sponsoring a contest! They’re spreading the word about the latest contemporary book by Erin McCarthy, Flat Out Sexy.

Isn’t that cover flat out sex-ay? Ooh yeah – gotta get it! So help spread the contemporary love and enter the contest!
