Gwen’s review of One Touch of Scandal by Liz Carlyle Historical romance released by Avon 28 Sep 10 Sybil and I were trying to figure out if this book was historical or paranormal.  We landed on “historical with important paranormal elements.”  How’s that for decision making?  Solidly in the middle. In spite of our collective [...]

Love this cover… I have to admit I wanted to know more about Zoë Armstrong when I finished Tempted All Night (another Liz C book I loved).  When I closed the book I went on a rereading binge and ran through about 4 or 5 faves before I had to stop. When I heard this [...]

Class In the Historical Romance

Tuesday, May 26, 2009 6:00 11 Comments
