Favorite Heroes and Heroines!


It’s that time of year when I share my favorite heroes and heroines. I have read and reviewed nearly 1000 romances, most historical, and in those novels that I have rated 5-stars there are some wonderful heroes and heroines. Noble men who overcome tortured pasts, flaws and the odds against them to pursue love and heroines who persist against great obstacles to be with the man to whom they would give their heart—strong, intelligent women of character. Every one a worthy hero and heroine.

Here are my favorites, my Christmas gift to you! This just might be your next year’s reading list!
