REVIEW: A Midnight Clear by Emma Barry and Genevieve Turner

JayneB ReviewsAmerican historical / American Navy / Fly Me to the Moon series / Historical / holiday novella / novella / War / Military1 Comments

Annapolis, Maryland, 1948 Frances Dumfries is the perfect admiral’s daughter. She runs the household, hosts the parties, and never falls for the midshipmen surrounding her.

REVIEW: The Wind and the Sea by Marsha Canham

JayneA- Reviews19th century / American Navy / pirates / reissue / swashbuckler19 Comments

Dear Ms. Canham, When I started reading romances again and discovered your books “The Wind and the Sea” was like the Canham Holy Grail. Long OOP, copies were prized and VHTF. I remember finding mine in a USB and fighting to stay casual as I took my purchases to the ... more >
