Historical Romance Review: The Silver Devil by Teresa Denys
I've put off posting an analysis of Teresa Denys' first book, The Silver Devil, for a long time because I didn't quite know how to critique it. If you're a hard-core lover of old-school romance or bodice rippers, you might be familiar with this legendary novel. 4 1/2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: The Silver Devil by Teresa Denys”

We're having a little fun now that it's the Holiday Season. Romance novel titles can be so generic that they blend together. This has always been so in the genre, whether it was 40 years ago or in the present day. We created a romance novel name generator that takes after the Zebra naming conventions.

Historical Romance Review: Texas Conquest by Caroline Bourne
This review is of Texas Conquest by Caroline Bourne. This historical romance is a Zebra Lovegram, published in 1988. Texas Conquest is a frustrating book because there are good elements, but Ms. Bourne doesn’t put them together. Hopefully, she can address these issues in future books. 2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Texas Conquest by Caroline Bourne”

Category Romance Review: Hilltop Tryst by Betty Neels

Category Romance Review: Hilltop Tryst by Betty Neels
Hilltop Tryst was another sweet romance by the famous Betty Neels featuring--as always--a fair-haired doctor as a hero, although this time he's British, not Dutch. Nor is the heroine a nurse. She's the daughter of a local successful veterinarian and works with Dad. 3 stars Read more “Category Romance Review: Hilltop Tryst by Betty Neels”

Category Romance Review: Song of the Waves by Anne Hampson
Wendy Brown is a not-yet-21-year-old Englishwoman who's been given the worst news imaginable: she has an inoperable brain tumor and will die in a few months. Rather than spend her last days wallowing in despair, Wendy decides to make the best of her lot. Alone in the world, she sells her family home and buys a ticket for the maiden voyage of a glamorous cruise ship that's set to sail the world. Thus begins Anne Hampson's Song of the Waves, a vintage Harlequin Presents written in 1976. 4 stars Read more “Category Romance Review: Song of the Waves by Anne Hampson”

Historical Romance Review: Crimson Obsession by Deana James

Posted on November 11, 2021May 2, 2022 By IntrovertReader No Comments on Historical Romance Review: Crimson Obsession by Deana James
Historical Romance Review: Crimson Obsession by Deana James
I've read about half of the romances Deana James published and I must say Crimson Obsession is probably my least favorite of her works. It's not a bad romance, but it pales in comparison to her other books. Due to my high expectations of James' writing, Crimson Obsession was a bit of a disappointment, although if penned by another author, I daresay I might not have been so critical. 3 & 1/2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Crimson Obsession by Deana James”

Category Romance Review: The Jade Affair by Madeline Harper
Madeline Harper's The Jade Affair happens to be one of my top Harlequin Temptations due to its engaging reunited lovers' plotline.

Category Romance Review: Rainy Day Kisses by Debbie Macomber
I adore a love story where one partner is restrained and uptight and the other is open and free-spirited. Rainy Day Kisses, a Harlequin Romance by Debbie Macomber depicts those elements just perfectly. It's about a woman who has zero time for frills and silly moments enjoying life. However, she butts head with her neighbor, a laid-back kind of guy who loves flying kites. 4 stars Read more “Category Romance Review: Rainy Day Kisses by Debbie Macomber”

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. We've accumulated over 50,000 views on our Sweet Savage Flame #bookblog and we couldn't be more happy and thankful! To all our readers and supporters, we can't say enough to show our appreciation. Hello everyone I hope you're having a lovely Sunday afternoon. Today's #stepbackreveal is Rosanne Bittner wildest dreams. The cover art by H Tom Hall has Montage of the couple posing, then in an Embrace, a picture of the villain, a stampede of cattle, the heroin playing piano, and a couple of Native Americans in the snow. That's a lot going on but somehow Tom at work. How time flies! April has always been a memorable month! I wasn't going to do a #stepbacksaturday post that the weather was so nice and I had to pick a couple of Hyacinths that were being strangled by bamboo so I figured the flowers would make for a nice picture. Happy #coverlustfriday! It's been a couple of weeks as April always seems to be the most hectic month of the year. Spring cleaning and holiday times I've gotten behind in my reading. Hope you're all doing well!
