I have to read Elizabeth Berg, Jo_Ann Mapson, Marian Keyes and James Lee Burke. Though they all have very different writing styles, they have become familiar and are like coming home to old friends even though the story is always different.

My favorite is V C Andrews, I'm waiting on the newest book. I looked for it yesterday but couldn't find it. Must not be out yet.

I also like Dean Koontz.
Beverly Lewis and Wanda E. Brunstetter, they write books about the Amish.

I don't know if I could narrow it down to 3. I am a book hoarder. I can't go into a big box store without checking the books. Everyone in the family knows where to find me. I cruise Amazon.com when I can't get out
