18 & Over Book Blogger Tag Along

It's a sultry night in the northeast, and the thunder and lightning is all around me as I type this. Let's hope I don't lose my electricity.   Welcome to my blog, and if you're a new follower, please leave a comment so I can hop by your place. And old followers, I always love to hear from you.  Have a wonderful weekend!

The 18 & Over Book Blogger Tag Along is hosted by Bitten by Paranormal Romance  It's a great chance for those of us who read adult books to find others like them.  Thanks to Laurie for hosting this! If you haven't joined in yet, stop over there and add your name!  I always find a new read to add to my TBR pile at the sites on this hop, so be sure to visit everyone. 

This week's question: Please tell us a little about yourself and what you read.

I have two children, one of whom I home school (along with some help from math, science, and music tutors--I am almost completely unskilled in these areas!). I have a master's degree in history and a bachelor's degree in English, in addition to certification to teach both in high school.  I choose to teach at the college level because I have more freedom that way. I've been a college history faculty member at a local campus of a big university for over a decade.  When I'm not teaching my child or other people's, I write erotic romance books.  My first two over there in the right sidebar are coming out in June and my second two are coming out in July and August.  In addition, I plan to have two more released this fall.  (I've been writing for a while but only recently have I decided to pursue the dream I put off for years.) 

I read romance, particularly paranormal, historical, and erotic (or any combination of the three).  I also read mysteries, anything about European and British history, and adore cookbooks since I love to cook.
