Denise Powers

I have always loved books and cannot
remember not being able to read. As a
child, I read everything I could get my
hands on, including cereal boxes if
nothing else was available! I was a
very eclectic reader until college,
when I began reading mostly mysteries.
After reading nearly every mystery by
women writers available, I finally
began to expand my reading to include
romantic suspense a few years ago.
Then in 2000, I picked up a
Nora Roberts book and quickly became
hooked on romance. Linda Howard's books
soon followed and my TBR pile
skyrocketed! I never read an ebook
until I got an ebook reader in
October 2002 (blame Angela Knight and
MaryJanice Davidson - I had to get those
ebooks!). I began
reviewing for Sensual Romance in
February 2003 and I am enjoying it
greatly. I take pride in a well-written
review. I hope that the readers find my
reviews informative and that the
reviews help readers to determine which
books they might like.
My email address is
dapowers@hotmail.com. I love to hear
from authors about my
reviews. (No spam, please).
