Review: The Right Swipe by Alisha Rai

August 6, 2019Leave a comment

Four Stars Dang it, Alisha Rai! She gets me every time. THE RIGHT SWIPE hit all the right notes; starting with one of my new favorite heroes, and ending with a beautifully complex, yet fast-paced romance novel. The story follows Rhiannon, a guarded dating app CEO and kick-butt girl boss, and Samson, my new book … Continue reading Review: The Right Swipe by Alisha Rai

Review: Fix Her Up by Tessa Bailey

July 26, 20192 Comments

3.5 Stars I am going to start off by saying, I liked this book. I read it in one sitting on a perfect Sunday afternoon. It's a quick and fun read. Was it my favorite Tessa Bailey book of all time? Not by a long shot. I'm in the minority by saying this brother's best … Continue reading Review: Fix Her Up by Tessa Bailey

Review: Anything But A Duke by Christy Carlyle

May 1, 20191 Comment

Two Stars This was my first Christy Carlyle novel and I have to be honest, I was completely pulled in by the stunning cover and fun synopsis. Diana, our heroine, is an impoverished inventor looking to save her family by acquiring an investor for one of her creations. Aidan is a self-made man and investor … Continue reading Review: Anything But A Duke by Christy Carlyle

Review: Can’t Escape Love by Alyssa Cole

March 19, 2019Leave a comment

4.5 Stars I didn't know for sure until I read this novella, but this was the story I needed in 2019. CAN'T ESCAPE LOVE is novella gold and as soon as I got to "the end" I wanted to start it all over again so I could relive the warm fuzzies. I think we all … Continue reading Review: Can’t Escape Love by Alyssa Cole

Review: This Scot of Mine by Sophie Jordan

March 12, 2019Leave a comment

3.5 Stars What would we call this trope? The reverse secret baby trope? Idk but it was a unique premise that I enjoyed! One of the best parts of any Sophie Jordan novel is how readable her writing is. I would sit down with THIS SCOT OF MINE, and before I knew it, I was … Continue reading Review: This Scot of Mine by Sophie Jordan

Review: Lady Derring Takes a Lover by Julie Anne Long

February 26, 2019Leave a comment

Five Stars I am trying to find the right words to express why this book delighted me so much. LADY DERRING TAKES A LOVER took me by surprise because, honestly, I was dazzled, and that doesn't happen to me very often anymore, especially with the start of a new series. This was my first book by … Continue reading Review: Lady Derring Takes a Lover by Julie Anne Long

Review: Crashing into Her by Mia Sosa

February 19, 2019Leave a comment

Five Stars I freaking adored this book. I couldn't put it down! I actually got on the wrong train during my morning commute because I was so engrossed in finishing this fabulous contemporary romance. Finally, a book that not only lightened my mood, but also added depth to a tough trope. Okay, well Mia Sosa actually … Continue reading Review: Crashing into Her by Mia Sosa

Review: The Wrong Highlander by Lynsay Sands

January 28, 2019January 28, 20191 Comment

Three Stars Jumping into a series on book seven is always a risk. Luckily, THE WRONG HIGHLANDER stands alone well and I enjoyed this book about Evina and Conran. Evi is desperate to save her ailing father, so she goes to request (force) Rory Buchanan, a famed healer, to cure him. Through a series of classic … Continue reading Review: The Wrong Highlander by Lynsay Sands

Review: Playing for Keeps by Jill Shalvis

January 21, 2019January 21, 2019Leave a comment

4.5 Stars I can always count on Jill Shalvis to make me smile while reading a book with heart, humor, and most of all, romance. PLAYING FOR KEEPS follows Sadie Lane, a struggling tattoo artist, and Caleb Parker, an Elon Musk-like tech mogul, on their journey from frenemies to love. To start off, dog lovers … Continue reading Review: Playing for Keeps by Jill Shalvis

Review: Texas Legacy by Lorraine Heath

January 15, 2019January 15, 2019Leave a comment

4.5 Stars What a gift to fans of this series! TEXAS LEGACY is the long-awaited concluding novella to Lorraine Heath’s Texas Trilogy. The first book in the series, TEXAS DESTINY was initially published in 1997 (!?!?), but Ms. Heath slid readers back into her Texas world as you would slip into an old, worn-in pair … Continue reading Review: Texas Legacy by Lorraine Heath

About Romance Reader

Hi Romance Peeps! My name is Teresa and I am a self-proclaimed romance aficionado with a BA in English and PR. My “real” job involves a grab bag of communications and community relations for a large nonprofit in the DC area. I probably read 5-7 romance novels a week. I take grave exception to people calling romance novels “smut” or “trash”. My #1 romance novel of all time forever and ever amen is “Dreaming of You” by Queen Lisa Kleypas. Read my posts to learn more about me, but mostly to hear my thoughts about romance novels new and old. Love you all!
