Here at the Javits, love and romance are in the air—and at the Penguin Truck, which is parked outside the show floor and will be staffed today, 10 a.m.–12 p.m., by purveyors of passion on the page. Authors Marie Force, Jill Shalvis, Lauren Willig, and Emily Liebert will be on hand to chat with readers and offer book recommendations. Marie Force is the author of the New York Times bestselling Green Mountain contemporary romance series. Her most recent release is And I Love Her. The newest title in Shalvis’s New York Times bestselling Animal Magnetism contemporary romance series is Still the One. Willig writes historical romance and is the author of the Pink Carnation series, which concludes with the release of The Lure of the Moonflower in August. Rounding out the foursome is Liebert, who is the author of the novels You Knew Me When and When We Fall.
The truck will be chock full of books by these authors, but it will also be stocked with a variety of fiction and nonfiction titles from various divisions of the Penguin Group. Books at the truck are for sale, they’re not giveaways. The four love birds will be happy to personalize and sign any of their titles purchased from the truck.
