Category Romance Review:  The Italian’s Wife by Lynne Graham
Lynne Graham’s The Italian’s Bride is unusual from her other books I’ve read in the past. Holly Samson is the first Graham heroine I can recall who was not a virgin, and who’s borne another man’s child. The hero is typical of her heroes: dark-haired, ultra-masculine, ridiculously wealthy, smitten with the heroine, and of Italian descent. 3.62 Stars Read more “Category Romance Review: The Italian’s Wife by Lynne Graham”

Happy Friday everyone! I'm glad I dropped in in time to participate in #lisakleypasappreciationweek with my #coverlustfriday pick. It's #stepbackSaturday. I know its almost 10:30 p.m. Saturday night on the East Coast. But it's still in time. I'm the type of person who'd be late for her own funeral! I've got 10 minutes until it's Sunday. Ever the procrastinator, here I am posting a #stepbacksaturday #romancecover. As you can tell from the flag in the back, this is a civil war #Romance. It's a rough era, but for some reason I like romance is set during this time. There's an extra layer of drama added to the #romance novel. It's #stepbacksaturday for a couple of more minutes, but I forgot to to post this #stepbackreveal last time I posted a #stepbackcover. Hello all! Happy weekend. I've been away for a while but I'm back with a new #stepbackcover for my #stepbacksaturday pic. Happy Friday everyone! I hope you all had a fulfilling week. I'm doing some spring cleaning, trying to yet again reorganize my #books. I don't have enough shelves so I put them in boxes. There must be a ton in the attic, because I'm missing couple of 100 books. I think I'm the only person who could lose track of that many! Here's a review for a steamy #HarlequinPresents from 1995, by the late #MirandaLee. It is #ThrowbackThursday and a tweet reminded me of my beloved #cat Boomer. If human beings can have soul mates, then Boomer was mine. This week on #sweetsavageflame we highlighted one of our favorite romance cover models, Michael O'Hearn @mikeohearn.
