Welcome to Litsy!

For me, the best romance books are the ones that make me laugh as hard as I sigh. & while I did do the latter from time to time, the former not so much. First, I liked the hero but the heroine was much staider than I expected. The dialogue had only glimmers of witty banter. This in turn kind of made the plot drag. Also, the hero‘s possessiveness at some turns stopped being sexy or cute & veered slightly into “not ok” territory. ★★☆☆☆.

#7days7books This was my introduction to romance at the tender age of 10 😂 I was reading far above my grade level and while my mom censored the sh** out of tv (but really only what my dad watched- simpsons bad- melrose place fine 😂) she had no idea what to do with books so she just let me read what she read.

When you pull an unread romance off your shelf and turn it over and the back makes you wonder how long you‘ve owned it without reading it. I think I‘ve had it since it was pubbed in 1998. Love the cheeseball illustration! Bwahahaha. #romantsy

One of my favorite books. I am always replacing my copy.

Historical romance is my palate cleanser...Enjoying the very first Cynster novel!💕

Doing a little rereading ❤ #osrbc #romantsy

The first of the fantastic Cynster series. Devil Cynster, the alpha-est of alpha heroes, meets his match in Honoria Anstruther-Wetherby, when they try to solve the murder of Devil's cousin, Tolly. More importantly, we meet the other members of the "Bar Cynster", Devil's equally appealing cousins. Laurens went on to write many more books about the Cynster family, but the first six are undoubtedly the best.
