Award of Excellence

Elusive as the Unicorn by Carole Mortimer

Category Romance: Elusive as the Unicorn by Carole Mortimer

Posted on March 1, 2023November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Elusive as the Unicorn by Carole Mortimer is another mediocre romance that Harlequin publishers bafflingly honored with their so-called Award of Excellence. 2.5 Stars

Category Romance Review: Having Faith by Barbara Delinsky

Posted on May 3, 2021November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Harlequin Temptation #297 Despite this category romance getting the Award of Excellence, I wasn’t impressed with Having Faith by Barbara Delinsky. 2 1/2 stars
