Not that I am PBW, nor do I play her on tv. But if I were to play guess the author… I would say
Author A = JR Ward
Author B = Jacquelyn Frank
soooooooooo what would you guess… oh I could do a poll of the suggestions… hee the anon feature is even still on here… come on play you know you wanna
That was my guess although I don’t know that Frank’s series was so much a copy of the Ward series otherwise you would have to say any group of male leads would be derivative of Ward and she wasn’t the first to do it.
Feehan was probably the first in the paranormal but the whole “band of brothers” have been around a while.
Plus, I think Frank has sold good for a debut just not for the publicity push and purported print run. I did see her snark against reviewers at Amazon and shook my head. Don’t they have a class for online etiquette at RWA for new authors?

Um, no. That one’s all booked up for months at a time. Just look around. 😉
