Хороший пост, большое спасибо!
Kendra Leigh Castle rocks! The opportunity to discover new authors is always a treat!

Great post Jon! I have been following the #p2 effort since you started it, and although I have understood its purpose this post does a really great job solidifying the full rationale.
I love Sourcebooks, especially the Jane Austen sequels!
I am not sure I’ve read many small publisher novels–but then I’m not very good at looking at who does the publishing when reading a novel. I would love to be included in the giveaway.
I love finding authors and books that are new to me. I always have room for new books. great contest.
I’m always open to exploring new genres and authors.
Thanks for the contest!
I’m always open to try new authors. I have heard good things about Mary Margaret Daughtridge and Robin Kaye.
Hey! BOOKS! as prizes… that sounds GREAT to me! The more the better!!! :o)
Sourcebooks Casablanca has many great authors/stories
I have never read a romance novel, but I would love to introduce myself to new genres.
I know I can find a lot of good books and new-to-me authors at Sourcebooks!

Thus far, I’ve only bought Robin Kaye’s book Romeo, Romeo, so my knowledge is limited on the array of authors they sell.
Great giveaway. My favorite book that I have read from Sourcebooks is Call of the Highland Moon by Kendra Leigh Castle.
I’d like to find new authors to read to add to my favorites. Count me in!
I’m tempted by Amelia Grey and the word “”Duke”” in the title — anything that keeps Regencies alive!
I’m always looking for new authors and genres to become faithful to. I love a whole host of genres and enjoy them immensely!
I’ve read Slave by Cheryl Brooks and have to say that it’s my favorite small press romance. I hope more people would try her books!
My Favoritie publishers:
E-Books: Ellora’s Cave (They are one of the few that publishes a good number of medievals)
Print: Medallion Press (The first publisher that I have ever seen that published a non-paranormal German Historical without an English hero/or heroine)
I have never read a book from this publisher but I am always interested in new authors because once I am hooked I will buy an entire back list if I can find it. I am happy that this came at this time because it has a long time where I have had enough time to read anything that was not related to school. I just finshed my first year of Graduate School last week and it was surprising to see how few books I had bought in the last 9 months so I am ready to have some new reading material and some time to read it.
I love reading and like to try new authors. I really enjoyed Cheryl Brooks – Slave.
I have some of the authors on my shelf, but have never had the opportunity to read them. Its refreshing to know that big name authors can be with small time press.
I didn’t know that Cheryl Brooks and Linda Wisdom were with small presses – I’ve read their stuff and been impressed. Hmm. Do Samhain and Ellora’s Cave count as small presses?
I’ve never heard of them, but I can’t say that I’ve ever really paid attention to the publisher.
All of these books sound great! I heard rave reviews about Robin Kaye and Mary Margaret Daughtridge. Would love a chance to try all of these!
I admit, I hadn’t heard of Sourcebooks before this blog. But I’m always happy to try new authors and this would be a great opportunity. Thanks for letting me know about them.
I would love to try some of these new authors. I am always looking for more great reads, although I have yet to try Sourcebooks
I haven’t tried any of the authors for these publications but I would love to!
Robin Kaye – Romeo Romeo & Too Hot To Handle, I have heard great things about this author and never read her.
I heard a lot of positive buzz about Mary Margaret Daughtridege’s SEALed with a Kiss. I am looking forward to reading Michele Young’s The Lady Flees Her Lord. I like non traditional books. It is refreshing to read about a heroine who isn’t petite and drop dead gorgeous.
I love Linda Wisdom’s books. I have the first two in the Hexy witch series and am looking forward to reading the third one.
I’ve been impressed with Sourcebooks and have read several of your authors. there are several on this list I’d love to read.
I love trying new authors and adding to my TBR pile. Fun.
I don’t have a favorite small press romance, but Donna Lea Simpson’s books look very interesting.
Thanks!!
I am always up for supporting new authors and the smaller press companies.
I’d be so fascinated to try some Sourcebooks romances! I don’t have a favorite small press romance, but I’m very interested in trying new authors.
I don’t think I have read any of these authors, but I have heard a lot of good things recently about Robin Kaye and both her books. Would love to read any of these as I am always looking for new authors to love.

I have not any of these in my library but would cherish the chance to read them. I have read other books by Linda Wisdom and some of the others. The Kendra Leigh Castle book in particular sounds yummy!!
Sourcebooks is great! I loved Heart of a Wolf!
I’ve read some Samhain (Gia Dawn is a fave), but most of my books are MM PB’s picked up at large retailers . . . so I would love to read some new books–if only my horizons were as broad as my backside!
Romeo Romeo is on my wishlist so it would be great to try out this new to me author and some other authors this way!
Love the Sourcebooks and have met Marie Force, last year, at the NJRW Conference. What a sweety. My B&N Romance Readers Group also enjoy the Sourcebooks. I see a few new names that I am definitely going to look for their books.
