Posted on By IntrovertReader 4 Comments on Historical Romance Review: Blood Red Roses by Katherine Deauxville

Or it could be the vivid Middle Ages setting, my favorite time period. I read this Medieval romance by Katherine Deauxville (Maggie Davis) twice: once in middle school and then years later in high school, and was swept away in the story both times. 5 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Blood Red Roses by Katherine Deauxville”
