Starting a new #audiobook today! I‘ve been looking forward to this one! #romantsy
I haven‘t been able to share what I‘m reading because I‘m judging in the Romance Writers of America RITA awards and I have to keep mum about which books I judge. The 2018 RITA finalists will be announced in March, but if you are looking for #romantsy recommendations, you‘ll find a list of last year‘s finalists and winners at RWA.org
I laughed out loud several times while listening to this book. Tessa Dare has a gift for clever conversation and situational comedy pieced in amongst genuine problems and real emotion.
I‘m celebrating the release of The Chase today with a giveaway of Brides of Beadwell stocking stuffers! It‘s up to you whether they go in someone else‘s stocking or your own 😉
Head on over to www.saraportman.com to enter! Good Luck!

I usually don‘t do photo challenges because I‘m horrible at keeping up, but my current #research book is perfect for today‘s #tuneinNovember #YouKnowImNoGood
I‘ve started my next audiobook. I was going to read Beauty Like the Night, which is the latest release, but I like to read series in order, so I started at the beginning! I was surprised at first that the narrator did not have a British accent, but the heroine is French and she moves between the various accents well. I‘m really liking it so far. #romantsy #historical #audiobook.
Today is my #BookBirthday so I‘m giving away this fall basket. You can find the entry link on my website at www.saraportman.com

Good Luck!
I love old books, especially when I can justify my purchases as research. Here‘s one of my latest, picked up on a trip to Boston. It‘s full of illustrations of the region that is the setting for the book I‘m currently writing. The binding is so beautiful, even if a little worn. #rarebooks
I loved this as much as the first in the series. These books are so masterfully plotted and layered. I love Sherry Thomas‘s romances but this series is an entirely different thing—a slowly unfolding mystery that doesn‘t reveal its full complexity until the end. Can‘t wait for the next installment!
Masterful. I am a fan of Ms. Thomas's romances and was intrigued to hear she was taking on something different with this new series. Her take on a female Sherlock Holmes was EVERYTHING. It unfolded naturally and the precision with which it was plotted didn't come through until the end. Very well done and expertly performed by Kate Reading.
Hello Littens, I'm really excited about the lineup for my virtual book launch party on Facebook in one week. All of these authors will be giving away books and swag. I hope you can come chat with us!

Started a new audiobook yesterday. I'm excited, because I love Sherry Thomas and I love Sherlock Holmes.
Less than 4 weeks until my debut releases into the wild!! I'm still looking for a few more advance readers to help me get those all-important Amazon reviews during release week. If you read #historicalromance , you can grab it on NetGalley: http://netgal.ly/1dbBiX
If you don't use NetGalley, let me know and I'll get you a download code! ❤️ Thank you!

Nerd Reveal: My daughter and I are excited to geek out over this book 🤓 #mathisfun
Journalist Tess is held hostage for what she knows about a terrorist group, and fate makes French legionnaire Flynn her partner when he's trapped as well. The action was non-stop but the best part was the romance. It's quick, but the intensity of what they endure together keeps it from feeling like insta-love. By the end, I thought I would full-on ugly cry if Tess & Flynn didn't end up safe and together. #romantsy
@Tiffy_Reads , I see your Sweet Valley High and raise you the whole Sweet Dreams series. Sooooo many hours curled up with these books! #romantsy #gatewaydrug
Starting this on #audiobook today. I really enjoyed the first in this series, so I'm looking forward to it.
I'm home from the Romance Writers of America conference with an armload of autographed books, 3 of which are not yet released to the public. Bundle includes the 2017 RITA winner for Best Long Historical Romance! You can enter to win at www.saraportman.com. Good Luck!

#lastlineof1stchapter Cant wait to release this to the world! #debut #romantsy #historicalromance
I've started Devil In Spring as my next commuting listen. The more I listen to Mary Jane Wells narrate, the more pleasing I find her voice. Like, she could just narrate everything. #romantsy #audiobook #historicalromance
Hi all!
1. At my desk, Ohio, USA
2. Referral from a fellow author.
3. Pride & Prejudice (this is divisive, folks, but I am strongly in the BBC 1995 miniseries camp)
4. My daughters currently have 2 turtles.

Yay!! My two new covers are out. ❤️❤️ I need to shower love on cover artist Nathalie Gray. #romantsy #historicalromance
I'm finally listening to Lord of Scoundrels, which is the #historicalromance everyone is shocked I haven't read. #romantsy
@JuliaQuinn is one of my favorite historical romance authors, so I'm celebrating her release by giving away a #free copy. This is an #amazongiveaway and it's random chance. That means you'll know right away if you didn't win so you can order your own! Good Luck!

I'm making final edits to The Chase today. It will be bittersweet to finish up this series and these characters. #romantsy #historicalromance
Just getting started with Seana Kelly's debut (release in July) It's in first person, which I'll admit sometimes distracts me outside of NA/YA but it doesn't here. She does it really well. #reviewcopy #authorperks #romantsy
My airplane read. Do you ever read on your phone screen, or just get frustrated? I'm excited for this one. It won the RWA Golden Heart.
#romantsy #newrelease
Even though I know book covers can be all over the board as far as how much they match what's inside, both in terms of mood and quality--I'm still a sucker for a great cover. This one's got me ready to turn pages. #historicalromance #romantsy
