Liviania’s review of Wicked All Day by Liz Carlyle
Historical romance released by Pocket Star 22 Sept 09
Coming off the high of Tempted All Night, I had high hopes for Liz Carlyle’s Wicked All Day.  I enjoyed Zoë Anderson in that novel and looked forward to seeing her meet her Prince Charming.  While Wicked All Day wasn’t [...]

Liviania’s review of Tempted All Night by Liz Carlyle
Historical romance released by Pocket 17 Feb 09
Once you’ve read three or more books by the same author, you’ve made some decisions about what that author’s books are like.  Character or plot driven, good or bad at weaving an action plot with the romance, better at [...]

Gwen’s review of Never Romance a Rake (Neville Family Trilogy, Book 3) by Liz Carlyle
Historical romance released by Pocket 22 Jul 08
I enjoy breaking up my urban fantasy and contemporary reading with a nice, refreshing historical.  I tend to the “heavier” historicals and try to avoid “teh funny” as much as possible.  This book delivered [...]

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.

Class In the Historical Romance

Tuesday, May 26, 2009 6:00 11 Comments

Before I start this – please remember I’m talking generalisations, about the zeitgeist. There are always exceptions to the rule, always exceptional people and situations, but citing their examples doesn’t make it the norm. Authors generally work with the fringes, with the exceptions, so there’s a real danger that they can become regarded as the [...]

Shannon C.’s review of A Woman of Virtue by Liz Carlyle
Historical romance released 27 Feb 01 by Pocket
There are some books I like to gulp down, because they are exciting and quick and allow me to lose myself for a few hours. Then there are the books that slowly sink their [...]

Historical romance release by Pocket Star 22 July 08
I doubt anyone who read the other entries in the Neville Family Series can resist Baron Rothwell’s story. But even those unfamiliar with the other two can enjoy this novel.  The plot relies [...]
