Throwback Thursday: Historical Edition #39

Thank you to Shabby Blogs (http://shabbyblogs.com/) for the free frame!

Happy Thursday, everyone! And welcome to a new feature on Buried Under Romance and Love Saves the World.

What is Throwback Thursday?
Traditionally, Throwback Thursday celebrates nostalgia, asking participants to post a personal photo or an image from their past -- usually from 5 to 10 years ago. There are a lot of book blogs that also do a book-related Throwback Thursday.

The Historical Romance Edition:
Since Mary of Buried Under Romance and I are unapologetic lovers of historical romances, we've decided to focus on our beloved genre.

Here are our rules:
1. It must be posted on a Thursday.
2. It must be a historical romance novel published before October 3, 2008.


A Dangerous Beauty by Sophia Nash, published May 2007

Blurb:

Love, n. A temporary insanity curable by marriage or by the removal of the patient from the influences under which he incurred the disorder.
- The Devil's Dictionary, Ambrose Bierce

A Courageous Outcast ...

Rosamunde Baird has lost everything and has no choice but to accept an invitation to spend a season with a dowager duchess and her clandestine ladies club. Determined to stay in the shadows and live quietly, she has sworn never again to come face to face with adventure and temptation, two things that brought her ruin years ago. But then the Duke of Helston dangles before her the very things she craves most ...

Lord Fire & Ice ...

Mysterious Luc St. Aubyn has a much-deserved reputation for exuding blistering passion at night and frost the morning after. What demons drive this audacious war hero to hide secrets about the dowager's club and his devilish dictionary? When he's blindsided by his reactions to a virtuous siren, he has no choice but to reveal all during a scandal that will doom them ... or save them, if only they dare to believe in love.

This week I'm featuring another debut novel, this time by Sophia Nash, who recently concluded one of my favourite series, The Royal Entourage, with the release of The Once and Future Duchess.

I loved her debut novel and the series that grew from it. I really enjoyed reading about Rosamunde and the rest of the members of the Widow's Club and Luc's The Devil's Dictionary was very clever. ^_^
