This was an Everyday Reading Book Club book back in February 2022 and it’s definitely one of the most popular books I’ve ever done in book club – I got a FLOOD of messages from people who were absolutely obsessed with this time travel book about a woman from America raised by her Irish grandfather who, after his death, returns to Ireland to spread his ashes and finds herself back nearly a hundred years earlier, meeting her grandfather who is a little boy.

This is the second book in the Savage Wells series but can be read alone (although I plan to go back and read the first one – it’s included in Audible Plus!). As the mystery of her past starts to unravel, a romance between the two starts to slowly develop (surprise!).
After the wedding does NOT take place, she accepts the nursing job anyway because she can’t go back to where she’s come from. In this one Miriam arrives in the tiny town of Savage Wells for a nursing job, only to discover that the doctor in question had actually sent in for a mail-order bride who could act as both wife and nurse. This was my most recent historical romance title and I loved it (the audiobook as read by Kristen Potter, whom I have long loved – she is the reader for Hattie Big Skywhich is also a terrific book). The leader of the wagon train is Captain Elliot and Sarah by turns admires him and despises him. She wasn’t wrong – this historical romance is written in diary form (a format I generally don’t care for but works wonderfully here) and follows Sarah Prine and her family in the Arizona Territories where pretty much every bad thing you can imagine happens until they join up with a wagon train.
I read this book YEARS ago after my mom raved about it and sent me a copy. And when Amelia finds attraction blooming for Peter, things are going to get even more tricky. Until Amelia discovers that one of the other guests, Peter Wood, is hoping to help HIS sister make a match with Sir Ronald. Fortunately, they’re invited to a house party at Sir Ronald’s house and it looks like things for the sisters. Amelia and her sister face abject poverty as soon as their stepfather dies and Amelia is hopeful that before that happens, she can secure a marriage between her sister and a wealthy gentleman – Sir Ronald – her sister has shown some interest in. I just listened to this one a few weeks ago and it was an absolute delight.
( Blackmore is another historical romance by the same author and it’s good but not AS good as Edenbrooke). I especially loved the snappy dialogue in this one. She has no interest in romance herself, but is very anxious for a change of scenery. Marianne is invited to visit Edenbrooke by her twin sister who intends to marry into the family that owns the country estate and Marianne, mourning the loss of her mother and lonely in Bath with her grandmother, quickly agrees. This was one of the first historical romances I read, years and years ago, and when I asked for recommendations for historical romance novels, it was absolutely the most shared title. Here are my seven favorites and then below that, you’ll see all the recommendations I got – you better believe my library holds are maxed out!ħ Favorite Historical Romance Novels (+ 50 more suggestions) Some of these have been favorite for the past decade, while others are ones I’ve read as recently as a few weeks ago – it’s been so fun to dig more into a genre I’ve historically not spent a lot of reading.Įven better, I asked on Instagram for recommendations and WHOA, did the recommendations come flying in!
If you asked me about historical romance novels, my first thought would probably be, “that’s not really my genre of choice.”īut then as I started thinking about this list, I realized that while I might not have 100 historical romance suggestions, I do have some beloved books that exactly fit that bill.
