Historical Romance Review: Hearts of Fire by Anita Mills

Posted on September 19, 2021November 11, 2022 by IntrovertReader

Hearts of Fire is a more satisfying sequel to the first installment of Anita Mills’ medieval romance series, Lady of Fire, than its second outing, Fire and Steel was. The forbidden romance between Richard and Gilliane de Lacey is stellar. 4 stars

Posted on May 20, 2021April 19, 2023 by IntrovertReader

The Heart Remembers is Barbara Hazard’s sequel to one of the more poignant and beloved romance novels I’ve had the pleasure to read: Call Back the Dream. 4 stars

Posted on May 18, 2021November 10, 2022 by IntrovertReader

The action-packed and romantic medieval Lady of Fire by Anita Mills features one of the greatest villains ever in a historical romance novel. 5 stars
