Historical Romance Review: Raven by Shana Carrol

Posted on January 25, 2022May 2, 2022 By IntrovertReader No Comments on Historical Romance Review: Raven by Shana Carrol
Historical Romance Review: Raven by Shana Carrol
Raven by Shana Carol (aka Christina Savage, aka Mr. Kerry Newcomb & Mr. Frank Schaeffer) is a riveting bodice-ripper. It's a pirate adventure that features a kickass, resilient heroine whom I adore. It also stars a hero who isn't worthy to lick the underside of her shoes. This is one of those books I both hate and love and wavered for a long time what rating to give it. 3.49 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Raven by Shana Carrol”

Historical Romance Review: Angel in Scarlet by Jennifer Wilde

Posted on December 28, 2021May 2, 2022 By IntrovertReader No Comments on Historical Romance Review: Angel in Scarlet by Jennifer Wilde
Historical Romance Review: Angel in Scarlet by Jennifer Wilde
Angel In Scarlet isn't a bodice ripper. It's a Georgian-Era chick-lit. This is a hard one to categorize. It's not just a romance, but more of a heroine's journey through life and her relationships with several men she meets along the way. 4 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Angel in Scarlet by Jennifer Wilde”

Historical Romance Review: Passion’s Wicked Torment by Melissa Hepburne

Posted on August 8, 2021May 2, 2022 By IntrovertReader 1 Comment on Historical Romance Review: Passion’s Wicked Torment by Melissa Hepburne
Historical Romance Review: Passion’s Wicked Torment by Melissa Hepburne
Pinnacle Books' Passion's Wicked Torment is a balls-to-wall 20th-century bodice ripper set in the gangster era during American Prohibition. From New York to Chicago, from Alaska to Europe, this book hops around the globe and features lots of mutually lusty sex scenes, rapes, and gangbangs. It stars a heroine so stupid and dumb, she could only have been written by Mr. Melissa Hepburne himself, the author of the blockbuster bestseller (I'm not kidding, it sold over a million copies!) Passion's Proud Captive. 3 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Passion’s Wicked Torment by Melissa Hepburne”

Historical Romance Review: The Frost and the Flame by Drusilla Campbell

Posted on July 24, 2021May 2, 2022 By IntrovertReader 2 Comments on Historical Romance Review: The Frost and the Flame by Drusilla Campbell
Historical Romance Review: The Frost and the Flame by Drusilla Campbell
Drusilla Campbell's The Frost and the Flame is one of those naughty bodice rippers where the heroine is separated for a long period of time from her true love, the dull, hero, and instead spends more time with the lusty, evil villain. This is the kind of bodice ripper I like: one that does not take itself seriously and knows how to throw crazy tropes at you, so you'll keep the pages turning, even if the story is not really romantic. 4 1/2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: The Frost and the Flame by Drusilla Campbell”

Historical Romance Review: Tara’s Song by Barbara Ferry Johnson
Tara’s Song by Barbara Ferry Johnson is yet another middling Viking romance that disappoints. Written in the late ’70s at the height of the bodice ripper era, you’d expect this Viking romance to rapacious and fun, but I found it rather ho-hum. 2 stars Read more “Historical Romance Review: Tara’s Song by Barbara Ferry Johnson”

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!
