Son of the Morning by Linda Howard. A book layered in fantasy, magic and love. This is a
different take on romance since the hero and
heroine don’t even meet face-to-face until page 281, and it’s a twist on time
travel. But you’ll fall in love with the blending of contemporary and
historical fiction with some exceptional
research written by a master. 
Remembrance by Jude Deveraux. Soulmates, past
lives, and reincarnation. Of all her books this one just stands out. This isn’t
a light romance. There’s a lot of heartbreak and drama before the characters
get it right. Best quote: “You can’t be happy in this
life because of what happened in your past lives.”

I honestly can't remember back that far. Although, Tahn by L.A. Kelly was a good one from my teen years.
ReplyDeleteThe book that got me hooked on the romance genre was Hot by Julia Harper. I still have it and often read it.
ReplyDeleteI believe it was Georgette Heyer's Venetia.
ReplyDeleteI think it was Jude Deveraux's and Judith McNaught's books!
ReplyDeleteFor me it was Jude Deveraux's Black Lyon. I absolutely loved it.

Gone with the Wind, as I recall, was the first romance book I read. But I didn't really get into reading only romance (historicals) until the mid-70s.

I honestly can't remember the title of the book that got me into romance. I do remember it being a Harlequin book though. What really sealed the deal for me was Linda Howard's "Shades of Twilight". It's one of my favorite reads along with Johanna Lindsay's " A Man to Call My Own" and Jude Deveraux's Montgomery/Taggert series.

I think it was Born of Silence by Sherrilyn Kenyon.
ReplyDeletePalomino by Danielle Steele was the first romance novel my mom gave me to read.... but I really fell in love when I picked up Christine Feehan's Dark Prince and Linda Howard's Mr. Perfect.

I started reading romance books ages ago (when I was 15). A cousin lend me a Harlequin romance (sorry I don't remember the name of the book) and that's when I fell in love with romance novels.

The Born In Trilogy by Nora Roberts started me reading romance. With her JD Robb books, she introduced me to the paranormal genre. She is still my favorite author to this day (though there are others close to her spot)
ReplyDeleteI started with a classic: Wuthering Heights.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure exactly, i started reading my Grandmother's Harlequin and Silhouette books when i spent summers with her as a teenager. I know Nora Roberts was a favorite of hers, and became one of mine.
ReplyDeleteMy mom read the Harlequin & Silhouette romance books and she found that Silhouette had a teen line and she brought some home and I was hooked. Thanks for sharing the hop and giveaway. evamillien at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteThe Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen Woodiweis. (I think I spelled her name right. )
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win. <^_^>
