I would have to say Pink and Purple because there are more authors in that group that I haven't read. The other two I've read almost all the authors. But I wouldn't say no to any of the selections.
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited about this contest! My favorite dessert is a plain pound cake with almond flavoring, mouth-watering. The orange and red books are calling my literary mind with thoughts of using these books to stimulate my body with all the romance enclosed. What an outstanding Christmas present.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic give away. I think my favorite would be blue.
ReplyDeleteLove the color coded boxes of books! :) I'll have to remember this when I give books as gifts; it's a great idea!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm off to find a snack. Thinking of creme brulee, my favorite desert, has made me hungry!
Wow! What a pretty collection of books. Bookshelves will be happy to hold these books on them! Thank you for being such a giver.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Congrats Erin on the release! I am an avid foodie and baker. Looking forward to reading the book!
DeleteOf course chocolate is a favorite. When it's not that it is a cake called Sock IT To Me. I love this cake and it is so good. Thank you for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOh my, you must have very strong willpower to resist reading all of these books.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you on your new release. I love the cover, and the color of her dress is beautiful.
Presents!!! I'm excited!!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! And big congratulations on the new release!
ReplyDeleteFav dessert category might be tiramisu or creme brulee. Favorite absolute is the made-to-order chocolate amazingness at this little restaurant in Seattle called Canlis.
DeleteI'm a simple girl when it comes to desert. I love anything that is sweet. However, I miss petit fours. I haven't had those since living in the south.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway. I like blue.
ReplyDeleteI love chocolate mousse.
I make homemade Eclairs and I think they turn out pretty amazing. Thanks for such a great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteWow! You are really generous!! And now I'm off to figure out Pam M's Sock It To Me cake... Maybe it's the same or close to the Better Than Sex cake?
ReplyDeleteohy my goodness what a contest. i love chocolate so any thing thats covered in the stuff is just great
ReplyDeleteOutstanding. I love it. My most decadent dessert is turtle cheesecake, which I bake myself.
ReplyDeleteYou know I love pink, but that orange/red box has books I've been craving for ages. <3
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great give away! I'm a blue gal myself, but so many great books, any color is a winner! :) I don't know how you didn't read at least half of them, they'd be calling my name.
ReplyDeleteI love ALL the colors--they make a rainbow for reading! And you've provided an endless list for future reading, some authors I've not heard of...so thank you. I love romance, I love the Regency era, and I am a book fanatic!

ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway. My favorite colors are orange and red. What a wonderful holiday surprise to gift to a lucky winner.
ReplyDeleteYou are officially a tease! I don't have a favorite "color" and wouldn't mind any of them ;-) Pinks and purples or blues and greens are a majority of my favorite authors! This would make a very Merry Christmas indeed!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous contest! Gold star for being so diligent!
ReplyDeleteWould love any of the boxes!! A great Christmas Gift!
ReplyDeleteALL of the boxes look great! I would take any of them. Great contest! Thanks!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'd like any of the boxes. My favorite color is purple and I haven't read those authors before. I know I love the authors in the blue/green box and would happily read those too. This is such a great idea for the holidays. You totally get a star for not reading the books.
ReplyDeleteAMAZING GIVE AWAY!

ReplyDeleteOMG that is some tough choices, looks to be some very good books :) But if choosing by color would go with Blue and green followed by orange and red and then the pink and purple LOL Love adding to my TBR pile...Books are so wonderful :)
ReplyDeleteErin -
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited that it's just a few more days until December 4th and the release of A Taste For Scandal!
My favorite "decadent dessert" to make for my husband is cherry-covered cheesecake! The recipe is a "secret family recipe from a friend who had to get up in the middle of the night to secretly write it down and then sneak it out of the house! Without giving away all the secrets one of the ingredients that makes the difference is using crushed up zwieback for the crust. For anyone one whose has paid high prices for a great bakery New York thick creamy cheesecake you'll know the advantage of being able to make it yourself!
The thing I love the best is that it's so good he even offers to wash the dirty dishes I end up having from making it! Now that's a deal I can't resist!
My favorite dessert is Baked Alaska! I have made it many times in the past. it's really easy and everyone enjoys it because it's so sensational!
ReplyDeleteThis is the best giveaway I have ever found. I love all of these fabulous novels and would love, love, lurvvvvvvee to be a winner! *holding myself in my seat to keep from jumping up and down* Thank you so much for this fabulous giveaway!! :-)
While I adore ALL of these fabulous authors, I would have to be honest and say my favorite colors are pink and purple and/or blue and green.
Squeeee!

Hi, Thanks for having this great giveaway. My favorite color is purple but I'd read any of the lovely books. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteOh wow. What a collection Erin!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite deserts. Okay, I have two. One is a walnut torte. It's a pastry crust filled in with walnuts then a caramel mixture to hold it all together. It's delicious.
Then homemade turtle brownies. A layer of chocolate brownie then a layer of melted chocolate chips, caramel and walnuts topped with another layer of brownie. So. Good. I had it for my birthday "cake" one year :)
Thanks Erin!!

ReplyDeletebituin76 at hotmail dot com
Its called sex on the beach... no really it is a desert called sex on the beach and it is sinfully sweet! OMG My friend makes it and my teeth literally hurt from all the sugar but I LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteI love cheesecake brownies!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT contest! I LOVE pink and purples. In a houseful of men (hubby, sons, and grandsons) my little bits of pink and purple remind them all I am not a man! As far as my favorite desert, I have no idea, it changes with my mood, time of year, what's in the house. I'd have to say Key Lime Pie and Red Velvet Cake are on the top of my list though.
ReplyDeleteThis is one unbelievable giveaway opportunity. Thank you so very much for this chance. I love Lemon Meringue Pie and homemade Italian Cookies.

Milk and white chocolate tart! <3 amazing. Thanks for the giveaway, what an amazing array or prizes!
ReplyDeleteGood heavens, Erin. You have almost 1600 people entered. How is a gal supposed to beat those odds? Or chose which color. Sign me up for pink. No, green. No, wait. Sigh. Okay, green.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the very, very generous giveaway! I'm drooling over those books :)
ReplyDeleteI love red velvet cheesecake... yum!
I love all the colors. You are so generous. I love decadent chocolate cake or cheesecake or carrot cake or almost anything fattening and rich, and megacalories.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting way to divide up the books...by color. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteI'm all about the purple & pink box and flourless chocolate truffle cake!
ReplyDeleteLove cheesecake! Sticks out tongue to all those calories!
ReplyDeleteRed! No, blue! No, red! Maybe.
ReplyDeleteI'd go with the blue and green. All look lovely, though! What a wonderful giveaway.
ReplyDeleteSalivating here over that scrumptious display of the reading buffet!
ReplyDeleteHow you could keep all those pretty books and NOT crack them open is beyond me. You deserve every Christmas goody you can think of!
ReplyDeleteI would suggest Cream Wafers. Delicious delicate morsels that melt in your mouth. A buttery soft cookie that you make a sandwich out of with frosting for the middle. Home made frosting with a hint of almond flavoring. Mmmmm...so Christmasy perfect!
An amazing collection of books and what willpower that you did not read any of them.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is cheesecake :) I love pumpkin pie also!!
ReplyDelete-TW
Key lime pie is my decadent indulgance. My favorite color is purple. Great prize packages, thanks for a chance to win. Congrats on the release of your second book.
ReplyDeleteluvfuzzzeeefaces at yahoo dot com

ReplyDeleteBlue and green my favorite colors. Thanks for a chance to win. Very clever giveaway idea. Many congrats on your new book!
ReplyDeleteSo many pretty books! I love that you grouped them by colors. :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite dessert is ice cream of most any variety. Not the most decadent choice, but oh-so tasty!
Pink & purple. I have many of the books already, but not autographed. Thank you for the giveaway, and congrats on the your new release.
ReplyDeleteIt all looks wonderful but I think Orange and Red are my favorite colors
ReplyDeleteI love gooey warm brownies with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce!! Mmmmm yummy!! Thanks for this awesome giveaway!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! My favorite dessert: pavlova. How can you not love something drenched in whipped cream and fruit?
ReplyDeletesince I'm HOTCH I want orange and RED! LOL
ReplyDeleteThis is the best giveaway ever. I love mango pudding.
ReplyDeleteI think I missed the giveaway. Which is a shame, since my fav color is blue, and the 'box' I would love to have the most is blue as well ;). how cool is that?
ReplyDeleteMy favorite dessert is really simple, for all the bakers in our family. I love the devil's food or fudge Chocolate Box cake when made well, with rich chocolate icing right from the tub (at the grocery store). *no messing with or adding to the icing like my dad likes to do, it ruins it. And I can't get him to quit!* Simple but soo good and chocolate-y.
