I have a few suggestions for good authors for a starter pack. You don't need to add to the list, but I thought to include some of my faves here:
- Lisa Kleypas (you have one I enjoyed a lot, but I am listing a few of my faves)
- Eloisa James (There are lots of good ones, and if you liked Lisa Kleypas, I think you might like that)
- Amalie Howard (I really like both the older and newer stuff)
- Evie Dunmore
- Mimi Matthews
- Alexandra Vasti
- Jenny Holiday (Earls Trip is so fun imo, but different vibes)
- Elizabeth Everett
