Pre-Historical Romance Review: Transcendence by Shay Savage

Posted on January 25, 2023January 9, 2024 by IntrovertReader

It’s Opposite Day today, January 25, 2023. So instead of a review for an old-school retro romance novel, we’re talking about something more modern, Transcendence by Shay Savage from 2014! 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

Cherish Tomorrow, Carole Mortimer, Harlequin,Dick Kohfield

Romance Review: Trust in Tomorrow by Carole Mortimer

Posted on June 4, 2021January 19, 2024 by IntrovertReader

Trust in Tomorrow by Carole Mortimer (also known as Cherish Tomorrow) offers an engaging romance between its main characters. Sadly, the overall plot suffers from implausibility and a lack of emotional depth. 2.5 stars

The Millionaire's Mistress by Miranda Lee

Category Romance Review: The Millionaire’s Mistress by Miranda Lee

Posted on April 29, 2021July 22, 2026 by IntrovertReader

The Millionaire’s Mistress by Miranda Lee is a passionate modern category romance that explores the complex dynamics between a wealthy man and a woman in need of financial help. 3.5 Stars
