    1. Hi klg3566! Thanks for visiting our contest. I haven't had the pleasure of reading the Thoughtless series yet, but I just added it to my to-read list. Thanks for the suggestion. I read a lot of different genres and romance is only a part of my reading list. My friend Laura and I each chose a few of the entries for this contest. Sorry we missed your favorite. Next year!
