Historical Romance Review: Speak Only Love by Deana James
Speak Only Love is yet another Deana James treat. This Zebra romance takes us to Regency Era England and the story of tumultuous love between two uniquely original characters. 3 1/2 stars
Historical Romance Review: Then Came You by Lisa Kleypas
The heroine of Lisa Kleypas’ Then Came You was, at the time of the book’s initial release, a unique female protagonist. Today, Romancelandia is replete with hoydenish, unmarried non-virgins who thumb their nose at society’s rules. Back in 1993, the wild Lily Lawson was, for the most part, unusual for a historical romance heroine. 5 stars
Historical Romance Review: Tangled Web by Janice Bennett
This review is of Tangled Web a Zebra Regency romance by Janice Bennett from 1988 that unfortunately, fails to have any charm. 1 Star
Historical Romance Review: The Treacherous Heart by Angela Alexie
The Treacherous Heart by Angela Alexie is a tale of a Gaelic, black-haired, fiery-spirited lass forced by circumstances to become a thief to provide for her family, only to be thwarted by an arrogant, scar-faced, golden-haired Duke
Historical Romance Review: The Magic of You by Johanna Lindsey
The Magic of You, Johanna Lindsey’s 4th novel in her Malory series, is a wonderful romance about a vixenish heroine in pursuit of her family’s hated enemy. 5 stars
Historical Romance Review: Purity’s Passion by Janette Seymour
The tale of Purity Jarsy, Purity’s Passion, (Part 1 of 3) begins with the horrors of the French Revolution and ends in France after Napoleon’s final defeat.
Historical Romance Review: Stormfire by Christine Monson
Christine Monson’s novel, Stormfire is the ultimate in bodice-ripping, a tale of two mentally unstable people and their violent, intense love.
Historical Romance Review: Devil’s Desire by Laurie McBain
For me, Devil’s Desire was a bland Regency romance written by Laurie McBain. 2 1/2 stars
