Historical Romance Review: Passion’s Paradise by Sonya T. Pelton

Historical Romance Review: Passion’s Paradise by Sonya T. Pelton
Passion's Paradise by Sonya T. Pelton is a wonderfully terrible book. However, it was oddly entertaining, like a terrible movie you watch just to shout inanities at the screen. Read more “Historical Romance Review: Passion’s Paradise by Sonya T. Pelton”

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”

Historical Romance Review: The Silver Devil by Teresa Denys
I've put off posting an analysis of Teresa Denys' first book, The Silver Devil, for a long time because I didn't quite know how to critique it. If you're a hard-core lover of old-school romance or bodice rippers, you might be familiar with this legendary novel. 4 1/2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: The Silver Devil by Teresa Denys”

Historical Romance Review: The Lord of Hawkfell Island by Catherine Coulter

Posted on October 1, 2021May 2, 2022 By IntrovertReader 1 Comment on Historical Romance Review: The Lord of Hawkfell Island by Catherine Coulter
Historical Romance Review: The Lord of Hawkfell Island by Catherine Coulter
In The Lord of Hawkfell Island by Catherine Coulter Mirana is a young, unmarried woman who lives with her brother in a massive fortress. When he's away, their home is attacked by Viking raiders seeking vengeance against him, as the Viking leader Rorik blames him for the death of his wife and child. Usually, a hero grieving over his lost love is grounds for me to dislike a historical romance, but thanks to Rurik, I had plenty of other reasons to despise this "love story." 2 1/2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: The Lord of Hawkfell Island by Catherine Coulter”

Historical Romance Review: An Offer of Marriage by Jo Ann Ferguson Review
Books like Jo Ann Ferguson’s An Offer of Marriage suffer from being published during a time of change. When Kensington’s Zebra historical romances died, they didn’t go quickly (actually, Zebras are still around, but they’re not the same as they used to be in the 1980s and 1990s). 1 star Read more “Historical Romance Review: An Offer of Marriage by Jo Ann Ferguson Review”

Historical Romance Review: Rangoon by Christine Monson

Historical Romance Review: Rangoon by Christine Monson
Christine Monson was best known for her infamous, shocking bodice-ripper Stormfire, which is legendary for the protagonists' extremely abusive revenge-based romance. Her second book Rangoon significantly turns down the crazy factor, but still retains the sensitive writing that made Stormfire so haunting and memorable. 3 1/2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Rangoon by Christine Monson”

Historical Romance Review: Highland Heather by Ruth Langan
Ruth Langan's Highland Heather is the sequel to her previous Scottish romance, Highland Barbarian. I liked this Harlequin Historical much more than its predecessor. Why? I enjoyed the conflict between the hero and the heroine and the English setting, plus introducing Queen Elizabeth I to a story always makes things interesting. 4 1/2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Highland Heather by Ruth Langan”

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!
