I realized after doing Historical Romance 101–a theme we hosted in April, that I needed to have a favorites lists so all of you can see what are must reads in my mind. Below is “HISTORICAL ROMANCE” this is one of my favorite genres, and even though I don’t read it as much as I used to, its still my favorite even after all of these years.

I would like to share some of the best reads I have in Historical Romance, these are both recent and older…books that still make me sigh, stories to inspire and enchant. I will list Single Titles here.

2. Petals on the River by Kathleen Woodiwiss Petals On The Rive r

This is a book that I read when I was first reading romance, its a story set in colonial north america. We have our hero, who is a widower and has a little boy in need of affection and love. The heroine was kidnapped and forced into servitude and brought to the colonies, and was brought to serve as housekeeper and cook, and they fall in love. Its a sweet and deep romance, and its one of those I can still re read.

4. Silver Anger by Johanna Lindsey Silver Angels

Silver Angel is a harem themed romance. But it is one of my favorite books by this author. I still love re reading it, its a good thin I own it. The story is about our heroine who is Chantelle, and ends up kidnapped and sold to a Sheikh. She is bold and daring, and a fighter. She is fighting for her rights for freedom, but she is attracted to the man she has been sold to, but still resists him because she wants him only and him to only want her and not the other women in the harem. What she doesn’t know is that he isn’t what he appears to be. I loved the sensuality and the historical context of the story,

5. The Conquerer by Brenda Joyce The Conqueror

This is a romance set in Medieval England. It’s 1069 and William I has conquered England. We have a story that is tough and gritty, but is one hell of a page turner. The romance is spectacular, and in grained in the story is the richness of history and passion.

6. Suddenly You by Lisa Kleypas Suddenly You

This is a story I read ages ago, but what a beautiful love story, the characters are easy to relate to, very endearing and their connection has some sparks. Its a story of two people that are more alike than they realize and find love where they least expect to find it.

10. Rebellious Bride by Donna FletcherRebellious Bride 2

This is a western, a story from a author that is a smart and sexy romance., its a attraction between two that at first they don’t like each other very much, complete opposites, but that soon changes.
