Contemporary Romance Review: The Sheik by Edith M. Hull

Posted on April 21, 2022May 12, 2022 By IntrovertReader 3 Comments on Contemporary Romance Review: The Sheik by Edith M. Hull
Contemporary Romance Review: The Sheik by Edith M. Hull
The Sheik by Edith M. Hull, published in 1919, is as influential to the modern romance genre as Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Perhaps, even more so. It was a blockbuster of a success, despite its many detractors. While some modern readers may cringe at its depiction of women, sexual roles, and racial attitudes, The Sheik remains a compelling read one hundred years after its publication. 5 stars Read more “Contemporary Romance Review: The Sheik by Edith M. Hull”

Category Romance Review: Guilty Love by Charlotte Lamb
Charlotte Lamb's Harlequin Presents romance Guilty Love is so crazy and full of over-the-top drama. I loved every wild moment of it. As always, YMMV, although this sort of book is right up my alley. But a word of warning: it handles a dark subject that may cause readers some discomfort. 5 stars Read more “Category Romance Review: Guilty Love by Charlotte Lamb”

Category Romance Review: Meant To Be Married by Ruth Wind

Category Romance Review: Stranger in the Night by Charlotte Lamb
Charlotte Lamb's Stranger in the Night deals with a sensitive topic she's approached several times: rape. No, it does not employ the controversial trope of "dubious consent" found in many Harlequins from the 1970s and 1980s. This is a healing love story about a traumatic assault that upended a woman's life and affected her relationships with men. 5 Stars Read more “Category Romance Review: Stranger in the Night by Charlotte Lamb”

Historical Romance Review: Then Came You by Lisa Kleypas

Historical Romance Review: Then Came You by Lisa Kleypas
The heroine of Lisa Kleypas' Then Came You was, at the time of the book's initial release, a unique female protagonist. Today, Romancelandia is replete with hoydenish, unmarried non-virgins who thumb their nose at society's rules. Back in 1993, the wild Lily Lawson was, for the most part, unusual for a historical romance heroine. 5 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Then Came You by Lisa Kleypas”

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!
