cheyenne captive 1987 gentry kursar

Historical Romance Review: Cheyenne Captive by Georgina Gentry

Posted on October 30, 2023January 9, 2024 by Blue Falcon

Cheyenne Captive by Georgina Gentry is the first book in her very long-running Panorama of the Old West series. It’s a strong romance with a well-researched portrayal of the Cheyenne tribe. 5 Stars

amber fire barbieri popp

Historical Romance Review: Amber Fire by Elaine Barbieri

Posted on August 28, 2023November 28, 2023 by Blue Falcon

Amber Fire by Elaine Barbieri is the first in a trilogy of Zebra historical romances where the heroine is in love with or married to a rotating stable of heroes. 2.5 Stars

Historical Romance Review: Eagle’s Song by Rosanne Bittner

Posted on July 3, 2023January 9, 2024 by Blue Falcon

Eagle’s Song, the seventh book and conclusion to Rosanne Bittner’s western historical romance epic “Savage Destiny” series, is another stellar example of Bittner’s unparalleled storytelling abilities. 5 Stars

when calls the heart

Historical Book Review: When Calls the Heart by Janette Oke

Posted on April 13, 2023April 16, 2023 by IntrovertReader

When Calls the Heart by Janette Oke is a charming inspirational romance with an enjoyable love story for both genre fans and those new to it.

Historical Romance Review: Brazen Ecstasy by Janelle Taylor

Posted on February 6, 2023January 9, 2024 by Blue Falcon

Brazen Ecstasy is the best of Janelle Taylor’s first four books in the “Ecstasy/Gray Eagle” series so far; not flawless, but very, very good. 5 Stars

forbidden ecstasy popp

Historical Romance Review: Forbidden Ecstasy by Janelle Taylor

Posted on November 14, 2022November 28, 2023 by Blue Falcon

This review is of Forbidden Ecstasy (“Ecstasy/Gray Eagle Series #3″) by Janelle Taylor. The “Stockholm Syndrome romance” between Gray Eagle and Alisha keeps me from giving Janelle Taylor’s Forbidden Ecstasy a five-star rating. 4 Stars

nancy gideon midnight

Paranormal Romance Review: Midnight Kiss by Nancy Gideon

Posted on October 20, 2022November 11, 2022 by IntrovertReader

Although I’ve read a few vampire romances, I’ve never been a sucker for them, so for this Halloween I decided to bite my teeth into Nancy Gideon’s Midnight Kiss. 3.5 Stars

a breath of scandal mason

Historical Romance Review: A Breath of Scandal by Connie Mason

Posted on October 12, 2022September 21, 2023 by IntrovertReader

Having read a few Connie Mason books in the past and (more or less) entertained by them, I picked up A Breath of Scandal expecting some ahistorical yet sexy, romantic fun. Sadly, except for the wallpaper Georgian background, this one lacked all those standard Mason elements. 1 Star

hearts-aflame-duillo lindsey

Historical Romance Review: Hearts Aflame by Johanna Lindsey

Posted on October 5, 2022November 11, 2022 by IntrovertReader

With her 14th book, Lindsey was on a roll, writing blockbuster romance after blockbuster romance. Hearts Aflame was the sequel to Lindsey’s third book, Fires of Winter.

tempt not this flesh

Historical Romance Review: Tempt Not This Flesh by Barbara Riefe

Posted on September 23, 2022November 10, 2022 by IntrovertReader

Barbara Riefe’s Tempt Not This Flesh was yet another inexplicable bestseller for the gender-bending author whose real name was Alan Riefe. 2 stars
