I loved A Kingdom of Dreams, and Whitney, My Love is next on my list. I have so many different versions of Whitney except for the new one…so I'll go get that too now. 😂😂
Ive always been into dark romance books, but I want branch out! I’m just starting to get into historical romances but just don’t know where to start or who I should read first? There are so many lol and just not sure who to check out first! Would love to see a video on a intro to historical romance recommendations please 💜
Judith McNaught were the romance books I read when I was younger. I actually didn't know she changed and added to Whitney, My Love! I should check it out. My favorite of hers are Once and Always, Something Wonderful, Almost Heaven and Until You. I will say she does end her books abruptly, she should add more to all her books!
I really not into Mrs Holt I read series regarding a ghost 👻 who protect a neighbor but I read 2of her and the others no because she change with new characters that nothing to do with the subject.
I love Judith McNaught books. She was my first foray into historical romances. You should read Something Wonderful, it has another alpha duke and Until You. Until You is about Clayton's brother Stephen. I also love her contemporary books like Every Breath You Take, Paradise and Perfect.
Kathleen Woodiwiss is in my opinion the best old school romance author….Shanna, A Rose in Winter, The Wolf and The Dove. Treat yourself if you haven't already.
Judith McNaught, Tanya Anne Crosby, Kathleen Woodweiss =OG Historical Romance Chef's 😘 I originally read most of their stuff as a teen. They still hold up. Personally, not a big fan of the whole "problematic nonsense". It's called fiction, people, as in NOT real. Not a fan of Elizabeth Hoyt. She tends to have a lot of spies in her books, and I'm just not into that trope.
I'd say nora roberts Her writing style has changed over the years Her newer ones have more swearing, which spices up the stories Her older books don't have swearing, or the characters swear very little, but they're still amazing books! Her books are great!
I didn't read the first Greycourt book, but When A Rogue Meets His Match (#2) was really enjoyable. I wasn't sure about the beginning, but I did end up really liking it.
I would like to see a tropes overview video where you give a description of common tropes. I know you have more in-depth videos on your channel but a general overview would be very interesting to me.
Hey there! I love your videos 🥰 do you have any historical romance recommendations where the protagonist has some sort of profession or career? Like the protagonist of The Secret, being a midwife and all that
The way you got so excited about Whitney, my love🥺😂 love it!!!! omg Lacey could you pleaaaase do a video with your favourite grovelling romances in Historical Romance?! I'm a sucker for those and you always have the best recs!!
I don't read about books much, I just read books. This is the first time I realised there was retrospective cleaning of old school romances in new publications of it. I guess that makes sense. As a person who likes both types I'll have to look more closely for originals.
Hey Lacey! I have been loving your videos for so long. I have a recommendation for you, please read ANNIE’S SONG BY CATHERINE ANDERSON. I promise you, you won’t be disappointed!
Some random recommendations 😊 1.Some like it wicked by Deborah Raleigh 2. The Touch of Fire by Linda Howard 3. Annie’s Song by Catherine Anderson (tw) 4. Come to Me & A Babe in Ghostland by Lisa Cach 5. The Lost Duke of Wyndham by Julia Quinn 6. Sharon Sala's Gambler's Daughters series (older series) 7. The Wedding by Julie Garwood 8. Natural Born Charmer, Call me irresistible, Heaven Texas, Nobody’s baby but mine, Match me if you can, (Kiss an angel-I think you’ve recommended that already lol) 9. The Paradise Bargain by Betina Krahn 10. Fallen by Celeste Bradley 11. Never seduce a scot by Maya Banks 12. Sandra Hill time travel Viking series 13. The Hellion Bride by Catherine Coulter (tw) 14. Dragon Actually by G.A. Aiken & -What a Dragon should know is my favorite of the series 😊Gwenvael & The Beast are my favorite 💜
"Not a lot happens" is a great way to describe most of the Rokesby series actually, but I kind of love the softer moments and just the focus on the sweet relationships. Haven't read the newest one yet, but I need to get on that! And yes, the cover is absolutely tragic.
I’m 52 and started reading historical romances when I was 12. I started on Johanna Lindsey, Dorothy Garlock, Kathleen Woodiwiss, Judith McNaught and Jude Devereaux. I read everyday and romance is my favourite genre. I just started reading Tessa Dare, someone I’ve never read but have heard good things about. 🌸💕🌺
I love you Lacey, and your soothing reviews of books is delightful. But I strongly disagree with 'Whitney, my love' inclusion as romance i shelve that book next to handmaid's tale and Stephen Kings the shining! Poor Whitney succumbing to Stockholm syndrome is one of the saddest ending! Did we read the same book?
Julie Garwood is amazing! Prince Charming, Secret and the Rose series … so good! You're also missing some Amanda Quick pen name for Jayne Ann Krentz: Deception is excellent, Mistress is another great read. Everything these two authors write is amazing.
