moon witch sinclair

Category Romance Review: Moon Witch by Anne Mather

Posted on March 4, 2022November 28, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Harlequin Presents #38 Moon Witch by Anne Mather In this vintage romance, a much older man falls for his younger ward. It’s an uncomfortable, but compelling read. 3.5 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

Stormspell Anne Mather

Contemporary Romance Review: Stormspell by Anne Mather

Posted on April 19, 2021January 26, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Written in 1983, Anne Mather’s Stormspell was anachronistic even for its day. A sheltered heroine rescues an engaged shipwrecked Englishman. 4 1/2 stars
