night light jennifer greene

Category Romance Review: Night Light by Jennifer Greene

Posted on April 26, 2023November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

In Night Light by Jennifer Greene, a surly man opens his home to a stranded woman during a thunderstorm. She stays for the night. That’s when things get weird. 4 Stars

Wrong Address, Right Place tadiello

Category Romance Review: Wrong Address, Right Place by Lass Small

Posted on April 19, 2023November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Wrong Address, Right Place has a paper-thin plot that would be difficult to swallow if written by most writers. Thankfully, in the hands of seasoned funny-lady Lass Small, this romance is an entertaining and zany read. 4 Stars

once more with feeling nora roberts

Category Romance Review: Once More With Feeling by Nora Roberts

Posted on July 13, 2022November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Once More With Feeling is the second outing from the Silhouette Intimate Moments line. Nora Roberts’ category romance tells the love story between two musicians, one a rising star and the other an established musician, who knew each other in the past. 3.5 Stars

dark fire

Category Romance Review: Dark Fire by Elizabeth Lowell

Posted on May 20, 2022November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Dark Fire by Elizabeth Lowell, a 1988 Silhouette Desire takes us on a trek through the jungles of Peru. 4 stars

The Perfect Marriage, Laurey Bright 1995 Diane Sivavec

Category Romance Review: A Perfect Marriage by Laurey Bright

Posted on February 26, 2022November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Silhouette Intimate Moments #621 It’s difficult for me to give Laurey Bright’s A Perfect Marriage a coherent review because it’s a romance novel that deals with adultery. 3 stars

woman hater palmer

Category Romance Review: Woman Hater by Diana Palmer

Posted on January 22, 2022November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Woman Hater (what a title!) by Diana Palmer is a 1987 Silhouette romance that seems to be typical of the author’s style. The heroine is young, virginal, and escaping from a tragic past. The hero is a macho, Alpha male, who is also burned by the past, which makes him a “woman-hater.” 3 stars

meant to be married

Category Romance Review: Meant To Be Married by Ruth Wind

Posted on December 4, 2021November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Meant To Be Married by Ruth Wind (aka Barbara Samuels) is a powerful romance that moved me to tears. This second-chance-at-love story is underscored by great characters and a sensitive writer’s hand. 5 Stars

the pirate and his lady margaret st george

Category Romance Review: The Pirate and His Lady by Margaret St. George

Posted on October 6, 2021January 19, 2024 by IntrovertReader

Margaret St. George’s The Pirate and His Lady isn’t a historical romance, but a time-traveling adventure published through Harlequin’s American Romance line. The romance here is bittersweet, as most time travels romances are. 4 stars

Nelsons Brand palmer

Category Romance Review: Nelson’s Brand by Diana Palmer

Posted on June 9, 2021November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Nelson’s Brand was my first and, so far, only foray into Diana Palmer’s little corner of Romancelandia. Palmer has got a bit of a reputation in the genre as an author of ultra-macho, hairy-chested heroes and virginal, too-stupid-to-live heroines. 2 stars

four dollars and fifty one cents lass small

Category Romance Review: Four Dollars and Fifty-One Cents by Lass Small

Posted on May 1, 2021November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Four Dollars and Fifty-One Cents by Lass Small is one of the best Silhouette Desires I’ve ever read. It’s a funny romance, passionate, sexy, and did I mention funny? 5 stars
