Throwback Thursday--Book Edition (Gentle Rogue by Johanna Lindsey)
My choice for Throwback Thursday--Book Edition is GENTLE ROGUE by Johanna Lindsey. It's the third book in her beloved Malory series and, even after all these years, it's one of my favorites.
If you love historical romance but haven't yet discovered the Malory/Anderson series, you're missing out on something special. This series has been ongoing for over twenty years and I still love it.
Stormy Persuasion is the latest book in the Malory/Anderson saga and was released this past June.
This book, like many in the series, has been published many times and is also available in ebook. I have the original paperback on my keeper shelf.
BLURB:
Heartsick and desperate to return home to America, Georgina Anderson boards the Maiden Anne disguised as a cabin boy, never dreaming she'll be forced into intimate servitude at the whim of the ship's irrepressible captain, James Mallory.
The black sheep of a proud and tempestuous family, the handsome ex-pirate once swore no woman alive could entice him into matrimony. But on the high seas his resolve will be weakened by an unrestrained passion and by the high-spirited beauty whose love of freedom and adventure rivals his own.

Happy Thanksgiving Day to all my friends in the USA. I hope you all have a wonderful day filled with family, friends and great food. If you're travelling this holiday weekend, stay safe!

Coffee Time Romance loves the Salvation Pack series
WOLF ON THE RUN and WOLF IN HER BED have both received 5 cup ratings from Coffee Time Romance.
"N.J Walters is superb in the ability to draw the reader into the world she creates. I fell in love with Cole because wow who could resist? I love how Ms. Walters makes the other characters just as interesting as the main character which brings the reader back over and over. I know I am going back to find the first two books in the series just to see how the current pack came to be. I highly recommend Salvation Pack and the writing of N.J Walters because she has an awesome talent she puts to good use." ~Delane, CTR
READ ENTIRE REVIEW
"The writing of N.J. Walters is always a pleasure but the world of the Salvation Pack is an experience. I loved reading the story of Armand as he suffered so and deserved happiness. Anny is worthy of Armand and watching her lead him on a merry chase was something to behold. I highly recommend Wolf in Her Bed and the writing of N.J. Walters. ~Delane, CTR

The Day After
So it's the day after my birthday, and I have to say I had an amazing week.
It started with my SIL and I going to a play about a week ago. (That was her gift to me.) Then my brother took me to a hockey game this past Wednesday. (His gift to me.) That was so much fun. I had other presents from family and treated myself to two amazing cupcakes (one vanilla and one chocolate).
To cap off the week, I saw Sarah McLachlan live last night. OMG She's amazing live. I didn't take pictures or videos. Why? Because I don't own a cell phone. *g* But she did sing one of my favorite songs.

It's a new beginning and I'm looking forward to the next chapter of my life. The first 50 years have been quite a ride. Let's see what the next 50 bring.

Throwback Thursday--Book Edition (Tiger's Eye by Karen Robards)
TIGER'S EYE by Karen Robards is my choice this week for Throwback Thursday--Book Edition.
This was one of the first historical romance books I ever read where the hero is a criminal. Alec Tyron is king of the London underworld. He doesn't turn out to be the long-lost son of a lord. He is exactly what he seems to be--a criminal, with many redeeming qualities. Tiger's Eye is now available in ebook, but I have the original paperback copy on my keeper shelf. It's been there since the day I purchased it so many years ago.
BLURB:
When beautiful aristocrat Lady Isabella St. Just first sets eyes on handsome Alec Tyron, he is holding her at gunpoint. Despite her fear of him, the tawny-haired, golden-eyed king of the London underworld saves her from the criminals who abducted her, only to fall victim to a gunshot wound himself. Thrown together in the seedy underbelly of glittering London, they are wary of each other from the start. Shy, sheltered Isabella has never met a man like Alec, but the street-tough crime boss ignites her passion in a way that she had never even imagined was possible. Their love is something that society cannot allow – but no matter the cost its blazing heat just won't be denied.
