Breath of Magic by Teresa Medeiros

Breath of Magic

I thought it would be fun to check out an older romance that has been mentioned on the site and in comments for years but never had its own review. People, Breath of Magic, first published in 1996, is completely bonkers and while it has definitively not aged well, it has a certain dreamy charm. While I usually try not to recap the whole plot, buckle up, because this plot deserves some serious recapping. Spoilers … Continue reading Breath of Magic by Teresa Medeiros

RITA Reader Challenge: Goodnight Tweetheart by Teresa Medeiros

This review was written by Jenn (@lostingreatbook). This story was nominated in the Best Novel with Strong Romantic Elements category. The summary: Abigail Donovan has a lot of stuff she should be doing. Namely writing her next novel. A bestselling author who is still recovering from a near Pulitzer Prize win and the heady success that follows Oprah’s stamp of approval, she is stuck at Chapter Five and losing confidence daily. But when her publicist … Continue reading RITA Reader Challenge: Goodnight Tweetheart by Teresa Medeiros

Goodnight Tweetheart by Teresa Medeiros

Goodnight Tweetheart by Teresa Medeiros

I wanted to like this book. I like epistolary novels, and I really like epistolary novels involving technology. I liked Meg Cabot’s “The Boy Next Door,” which is largely told via email, even with the weird part where the villain is running down the stairs and the heroine is on her laptop in the stairwell typing that the villain is running down the stairs. OMG… pick your laptop up and run, girl! I also have … Continue reading Goodnight Tweetheart by Teresa Medeiros

Guest Review by Dora: The Devil Wears Plaid by Teresa Medeiros

I swear I’m not doing this on purpose, but yet another guest review offering arrived in yon inbox while I was editing my review, and I enjoyed this one so much I wanted to share. I’ll turn things over to Dora who also read The Devil Wears Plaid. I spotted The Devil Wears Plaid the same way I find all my romances; in the “stationary” aisle at the supermarket. The reason it stood out to … Continue reading Guest Review by Dora: The Devil Wears Plaid by Teresa Medeiros

The Devil Wears Plaid by Teresa Medeiros

The Devil Wears Plaid

Some of the earliest romances I read were by Teresa Medeiros. I remember staying up all night reading Charming the Prince. Medeiros is one of those authors who is abidingly constant in her writing. Sometimes it knocks me over and I have to lie there for awhile savoring the feeling, and sometimes I read it with a smile and a quick-moving eye, eager for more. While I didn’t read the vampire books she wrote, as … Continue reading The Devil Wears Plaid by Teresa Medeiros

The Rec League: Reverse Time Travel

The Rec League - heart shaped chocolate resting on the edge of a very old book

We received this request from Scarlett some time ago, but it got lost in the inbox ether. However, it’s been recovered and it’s a great one. Thanks, Scarlett! I was recently reminded how much I enjoy a good time-travel romance…except for one thing. The ones I’ve read have all been modern woman/historical man, and they all end with the woman giving up her modern life to live with the hero in the past (see Outlander, … Continue reading The Rec League: Reverse Time Travel
