One favorite I'll mention is "Cluny Brown" by Margery Sharp. Not exactly a traditional romance, but it has a happy, romantic ending. I relate to Cluny, who, in spite of her circumstances and expectations of others, has a cheerful outlook, and is unapologetically herself.Magdalena Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09674381212999247449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-75727853326504730542014-04-16T09:16:50.357-07:002014-04-16T09:16:50.357-07:00What a sweet concept about the cowboy wanting to w...What a sweet concept about the cowboy wanting to write those letters!RoxanneRustandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443712316288965799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-30000183580794056592014-04-16T09:15:50.248-07:002014-04-16T09:15:50.248-07:00That's the key, isn't it?

I think the early 1970-1980 romances were about the young gal and dominant hero, but I like the evolution that has taken place over the years. <br /><br />I've picked up some of the oldies at used book stores, but they don't appeal to me nearly as much.RoxanneRustandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443712316288965799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-57657455109996712412014-04-16T08:11:17.463-07:002014-04-16T08:11:17.463-07:00I enjoy stories where characters overcome what the...I enjoy stories where characters overcome what they perceive as deficits to achieve new heights - whether that be love, a task they couldn't imagine before, or a new challenge life has thrown their way. <br /><br />My keeper shelf is at the other end of the house (lest I become distracted), but there's a story I love about a cowboy who doesn't know how to read and learns to do so to write the heroine a love letter. I think it won the RITA one year. Love rereading it.MelCurtishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07218278641168063613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-91209337692144359572014-04-16T08:02:32.412-07:002014-04-16T08:02:32.412-07:00I enjoy romances where the characters need to make...I enjoy romances where the characters need to make choices or compromise so that both can be happy.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09966926869600504013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-16448541129684467252014-04-16T04:17:41.337-07:002014-04-16T04:17:41.337-07:00Finally, it's Spring with flower and warmth, b...Finally, it's Spring with flower and warmth, but also rain and thunderstorm. I love novels with family situation and realistic problems that make us 'live' the story with the characters.Mona Riskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14923883333893160794noreply@blogger.com
