Historical Romance Review: Sweet Savage Surrender by Kathryn Hockett
Sweet Savage Surrender, a Zebra Lovegram, was written by mother-daughter duo Marcia Hockett and Kathryn Kramer, aka Kathryn Hockett. It's a romance between two lovers from different worlds. I was not a fun book to experience and one of the dullest I've ever finished. .5 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Sweet Savage Surrender by Kathryn Hockett”

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: Could It Be Magic by Gina Wilkins
Gina Wilkins' Could It Be Magic is a comfy romance read. It's a sensually-charged Harlequin Temptation from the early 1990s. Gwen DeClerck is a staid, young widow, who had been married to a man twice her age. When Jeremy Kane, a famous magician moves next door, he turns her stable world upside down with excitement and passion. 4 stars Read more “Category Romance Review: Could It Be Magic by Gina Wilkins”

Posted on March 2, 2022May 2, 2022 By jacquelinediaz No Comments on Category Romance Review: A Passionate Affair by Anne Mather
Category Romance Review: A Passionate Affair by Anne Mather
In Anne Mather’s A Passionate Affair, the heroine, Cassandra, is a divorcee whom the hero pursues and they engage in a...passionate affair. This was revolutionary. Before this book, lovemaking in this line had been restricted to married couples or "forced seductions" of initially unwilling virgins whose bodies "betrayed them." A solid romance. 3.5 stars Read more “Category Romance Review: A Passionate Affair by Anne Mather”

Historical Romance Review: Nobility Ranch (aka To Love a Lady) by Cynthia Stirling
This review is of Nobility Ranch (ebook title To Love a Lady), book #1 of 3 in the “Titled Texans” series from July 2000 by Cynthia Sterling. Ms. Sterling gets her “Titled Texans” series off to a great start with Nobility Ranch/To Love a Lady.

Historical Romance Review: My Steadfast Heart by Jo Goodman
There are some good elements in My Steadfast Heart, but the laborious writing style Ms. Goodman uses and the overall complexity of the story brings the grade down a bit. 2.57 stars. Read more “Historical Romance Review: My Steadfast Heart by Jo Goodman”

Posted on January 4, 2022May 2, 2022 By IntrovertReader No Comments on Category Romance Review: Guilty Love by Charlotte Lamb
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: For the Love of Sara by Anne Mather

Posted on December 30, 2021May 2, 2022 By IntrovertReader No Comments on Category Romance Review: For the Love of Sara by Anne Mather
Category Romance Review: For the Love of Sara by Anne Mather
For the Love of Sara isn't one of Anne Mather's bests. It features a rather unlikeable hero, which is par for the course for Mather. It doesn't help that he's a functioning alcoholic who keeps cans of beer in his glove compartment to help him deal with stress. The heroine isn't any better. She's a professional martyr who's made a lot of poor life decisions. When the book opens, she's about to embark on another bad choice, but in this case, she's doing it to save someone she cares for. 2 stars Read more “Category Romance Review: For the Love of Sara by Anne Mather”

Historical Romance Review: Angel in Scarlet by Jennifer Wilde
Angel In Scarlet isn't a bodice ripper. It's a Georgian-Era chick-lit. This is a hard one to categorize. It's not just a romance, but more of a heroine's journey through life and her relationships with several men she meets along the way. 4 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Angel in Scarlet by Jennifer Wilde”

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. 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.
