The best romance author i've ever read was Nicolas Sparks. He wrote the notebook and a walk to remember. The Host was good to.I need new romance novels to read. What do you recommend?
There is a book called Poison Study. It is a trilogy. The other two are Magic Sudy and Fire Study. They were really good. I think it would fit your descriotion. Sorry if these would not be what you want. I really like the book but at first when I skimmed through it, it is not in third person. The author uses "I" and other first person phrases.
I read a book called Of Love And War it was so good I couldnt put it down I need new romance novels to read. What do you recommend?
City of Bones. It's kinda like the Twilight Series! (Better, in my opinion, and I LOVE Twilight!) It's hot, has the paranormal in it, has seriously sexy scenes, and twists that I cant even BEGIN to describe.
Try 'A Room With a View' by EM Forster.
try atonement
Go Scotland! :D
Erm, try the Host by Stephenie Meyer
and obviously Shakespeare!
I haven't read any of the books you mentioned, but there's a book called The Perilous Gard, by Elizabeth Marie Pope, that I read over and over again. It's set in Tudor England and based on the Tam Lin ballad, and it's very romantic in an unromantic sort of way. Sorry if that makes no sense. It's wonderful, anyway.
I also like Jane Eyre and books by Jane Austen, but I'm not sure if they're the sort of thing you'd like. The writing is very old-fashioned.
Witch Fire (Elemental Witches, Book 1) by Anya Bast
Witch Blood (Elemental Witches, Book 2) by Anya Bast
Promise of the Rose by Brenda Joyce
The Conqueror by Brenda Joyce
The Outlander Series by Diana Gabledon starts with Cross Stitch
great time travel historical romance set in Scotland
If you are looking for historical romance, try Johanna Lindsey . Her older books are wonderful. Most are set in England but she has a couple in Scotland (Gentle Rogue is my favorite.)
Julie Garwood is also excellent.She has several contemporary romantic suspence, but most of them are historical romance. The Secret and The Bride are two of hers set in Scotland.
Catherine Coulter has a number of great ones. The Bride series (The Sherbrook Bride, the Heiress Bride, The Hellion Bride, The Scottish Bride) and The Song Trilogy (Fire Song, Earth Song, and Secret Song) either have scenes in Scotland or take place entirely there.
If you like a Regency historical then you can't go past Stephanie Laurens, Catherine Coulter, or Jo Beverley (though some of my favourites of hers are not always regency). They couple the manners of the day and the required etiquette of the upper class with sensuality and quite a lot of laughter (which I find hard to resist).
In the paranormal - Cheyenne McCray's magic series (currently up to book 4 with book 5 out in November) is great but decidedly steamy.
Mary Jo Putney, Johanna Lindsey, Elizabeth Thornton and Amanda Quick also number amongst my favourites.
try Hannah Howell, she writs historical romances, they are set in Scotland, and almost all of them have supernatural things in them (ex: in one book, the male is a a vampire, in another the female is almost a cat woman)
