I rather enjoy fantastical novels in a historical setting. Despite a complete absence of supernatural elements, I see books like these as wish-fulfillment stories, filled with imaginative attitudes and outcomes in outlandish clothes and possibly castles.

One Fine Duke by Lenora Bell is $1.99! This is part of the School for Dukes series and I think we featured in on Cover Awe for the lovely dreamy quality of the cover.

Melting the Ice by Jaci Burton is $1.99! This is book seven in the Play-by-Play series and though it’s been a while since I’ve read this one, I think it’s fine as a standalone. I have a soft spot for this series as I devoured it rather quickly in my early 20s. The lovely team at Berkley even turned this cover into a poster for me. It hangs over my bed.

I don’t think we’ve had a Cover Awe in a minute! This is where we keep the snarking to a minimum and share covers with elements we like. Artist credit: Gregg Gulbronson Designer credit: Amy Halperin Amanda: I might be the minority but I like this cover. I’m also biased when a hero has chest hair. Elyse: I do enjoy a hirsute man. Amanda: And I just like the whole “secret cuddle grove in the … Continue reading Cover Awe: Dreamy Cuddle Groves →
