Seconded! 😂💙📚

Teacher by Fiona Cole: Random KU Pick That Hit. 🔥🥵 💙📚

A Berkley fairy god-publicist sent me an unsolicited email asking if I would like an ARC?? I’m not saying I must have saved a person from drowning in a past life, but I’m not not saying it. 😂 Also, I responded to that email in less than 30 seconds! 😂 💙📚

Ellie Palmer, one in my triad of favorite new contemporary romance authors has revealed her sophomore book cover! 💙📚 The two other branches in my triad are Tarah DeWitt, Melanie Sweeney.

One annoying thing about historical research is looking up how long it took to get from A to B in the US by train in 1880 and then looking it up now and realizing it was faster in 1880.

She’s here and she’s so pretty! Read this with my well wishes for all the Good Vibrations. IYKYK. 😂#romancelandia 💙📚

Happy Release Day to Tarah DeWitt and The Co-Op! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶️🌶️🌶️ 💙🌎💙 Angry woman. Defying patriarchy. Lesbian joy and legacy. Anti-capitalism. Older adult visibility and caretaking 🛏️ Second chance + marriage of convenience #romancereads

January was a great reading month for me! I know I’m an eclectic mood reader, but it always surprises a little bit to see the variety of books I read in any given month in one snapshot like this. QOTD: Which of YOUR January reads do I need to try in February? #romancelandia #books

It’s my first #stepbacksaturday of 2024! This one is found in the Avon first ed mass market ©️ 2002. The novel is the second in Lisa Kleypas’ Bow Street Runner series, and tells the love story of another well-loved LK hero, the strong and stalwart Sir Ross Cannon. #romancereaders #vintageromance

Rounding out my Top 23 of 2023! New releases and backlist titles! I also read a number of series that I absolutely adored. I chose one book from my favorite series for this list. #romancelandia #historicalromance #billionaireromance #bookrecs #bestbooks #booklover

My top three favorite reads of 2023! I didn’t plan it, but each book is a different genre. #Romancelandia #romancereader #booklover #bookishcontent #bestbooks #bookrecs

Romance microtropes anyone? From sexy swim times to conveniently placed mirrors, I have an entire list! #romancelandia #romancetropes

I love my Twisted boys so I make silly memes like this to amuse myself when I think about them. 😂 If you’re an Ana Huang fan, I want to follow you! 📚#contemporaryromance #anahuang #twistedseries #romancereader

You guys, it’s Derek Craven and Sara Fielding from Lisa Kleypas’ Dreaming of You 🔥drawn by digital illustrator Anna Rocca. She even drew the scar across his face. 🥹 I cannot even. 🥵 Anna posts her set on IG. #romancelandia #HistoricalRomance #lisakleypas #derekcraven

Hello, Dante Russo and Vivian Lau 🔥 This character art for King of Wrath by Ana Huang was done by a digital illustrator Anna Rocca. The book is one of my fave 🌶️ reads this year! She is on IG @annasinroc #kingofwrath #anahuang #spicyromance #fanart

I can never unsee it now that these good dogs (14/10 for all) are fan cast. 😂The photo is not mine but was shared by @ weratedogs (courtesy of IG runaround_hound and IG reena593) #janeausten #fancast #gooddogs #prideandprejudice #prideandprejudicememes

5⭐️and Happy Book Birthday to The Unmaking of June Farrow. It is everything magical all at once, and absolutely one of my favorite reads of the year! It is part magical realism, thriller, suspense, mystery, and aching romance. #bookreview #bookrecs #mysteries #romancenovel

Jane and the Genius of the Place by Stephanie Barron is set in Godmersham from 19 Aug-16 Sept 1805. A mysterious, improper equestrienne is strangled at the Canterbury Races. Who else but Jane Austen has the temerity and wit necessary to solve the case? #janeausten #historicalmystery

The 3rd Jane Austen Mystery by Stephanie Barron is set in Bath. At the center of some gentle murder & mayhem is Lord Harold Trowbridge. Second son. Secret agent. Gentleman Rogue. RILF. If I could cast him? Rufus Sewell. 🔥 #janeausten #janeaustenmysteries #historicalmystery

Jane and the Man of the Cloth is the 2nd Jane Austen Mystery by Stephanie Barron. It follows the three Austen ladies to Lyme Regis, and imagines some of Jane’s inspiration for Persuasion. And it’s on sale right now on Kindle! #JaneAusten #JaneAustenMysteries #historicalmystery

The countdown is on for the release of the final book in Stephanie Barron’s Jane Austen Mystery series on 10/24. This is so bittersweet. So each day I’ll be posting a mood board with one of my favorite quotes from each novel in celebration, and self care 🥹 #janeausten #historicalmystery

What I did last night. And I’m still burning. 🔥💯 #romancebooks #steamyromance #romancereaders #kingofwrath #yesplease

Don’t ask me for a best/worst list because I loved them alllllll. Among this eclectic mix are 2 ARCs that I had the absolute honor to review for new-to-me authors. (5 stars for both!) And there’s so much more great work to enjoy from all these talented women. #bookreviewer #romancelandia

💯no notes 🔥 #stepbacksaturday This is the St Martin’s Press 1st ed mass market ©️1999. The artist is not credited but it looks like it might be Steve Assel? #romancelandia #historicalromancenovels #historicalromancereaders #vintageromance

Polar bears have taken over an ancient abandoned village in eastern Russia. Incredible photographs by Dmitry Kokh who won the Urban Wildlife category award in the Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition.

Sharing one my absolute favorite covers for #FieryFriday with this stunner ©️1996. The hand lifting her dress, they’re both soaked to the skin… 😍 It’s hand-drawn clinch covers like this that I wish would make a comeback in romance. 🔥#romancelandia #romancecoverart #historicalromance

How about this Elaine Duillo clinch for #FieryFriday gracing the cover of the 1989 Avon mass market. The bared shoulder and those curves Fun fact: Kathy Lawrence is the pseud for Kat Martin and her husband/writing partner, Larry Martin. #romancelandia #historicalromance

Happy #MustacheMonday to Amber (The Untouched) and Duncan of Maxwell (Scottish warrior) featured in the stepback of the Avon mass market 1st ed of Forbidden by Elizabeth Lowell ©️1993. Artist is not credited but I’m guessing Elaine Duillo. #HistoricalRomance #vintageromance

Regé-Jean Page is doing God's work simply by existing on this mortal plane where there are photographers. #RegeJeanPage #DukeofHastings

Scything is underrated. #AidanTurner #Poldark
