Best Historical Romances set in Exotic Locales--the list is up!

Picture OK, so it’s August and you’re home and you’re bored. Maybe the kids are in summer camp or going back to school. You want an adventure, an around the world trip, or perhaps an ocean voyage—without leaving your living room. And you want a good love story. But you’re tired of those set mostly in England, Scotland, Ireland and America? Well, I have just the list for you!

My mother taught me to read when I was four and told me I could travel the world through books. She was right. And were she still alive, she would love this list I’ve created for you daydreamers out there who long to travel…historical romances by some great authors set in exotic locales. Though some might begin (or end) in England or America, they will quickly take you to another time and another place! And all have been rated 4, 4 and ½ or 5 stars by me.

See the list HERE .

Willow Lovely list! I'm surprised you didn't add any Madeleine Brent. I loved his Merlin's Keep which takes place in Tibet. :D

Willow, Madeleine Brent is a new author to me. I will add this to my "to read" list the next time I update my Exotic Locales list. However, I must say that I am always skeptical when I see a romance written by a man as their love scenes leave something to be desired.

Willow Actually Peter O'Donnell is one of the few male authors I know who writes an extremely good female point of view. I've actually been wanting to check out one of his Modesty Blaise books for that very reason.

Good to know, Willow. I've added it to the list!
