This was published back in the mid '90s, a time friends kept trying to get me into romance and failing miserably. I really wish one of them had given me this. This book stars an alpha-male and the heroine has sensibilities more in line with modern times, but spends the narrative critiquing its genre...
4.5 helms Please follow me on my blog :) Review originally posted on Vellum Voyages Oooh what a book! I was DEFINITELY not affected like this on the first read...I liked it well enough but didn't understand the hype, as I didn't think it was amazing....great, but not amazing...wow the re-read wa...
So, I've now read the most famous of modern historical romances. I wasn't expecting much; historical romances keep disappointing me again and again, and I wasn't much impressed by this author's other book I read, The Devil's Delilah.

I also wanted to dip in to the "canon" of romance novels, and choose an older title that seemed to be a reader favorite. Finally, I love historical romance; contemporary is fun, but I often find that the cultural ref...

The heroine, Jessica Trent, is going down on my list of all-time favorites: she's smart and snarky and able to take care of herself. The hero, Lord Dain, is a conscience-less rake who reforms over th...
Soooo, this book. I hated it the beginning and the second half was okay but not earth shattering. I think I went into it with higher than normal expectations and came out burned. This is story of a very hurt and bitter individual, Marquess of Dain, and Jessica Trent a determined spinster. Dain is...
I loved this book. I had a few issues with it, which I'll discuss below, but it didn't even matter because I couldn't stop reading. I read it in one sitting. Jessica is my favorite heroine in quite a while. The banter and repartee were well done. I enjoyed the writing, but I could've done with ...
