I think that kind is harder to find.Jangahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15128188159653860806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192776379752748640.post-42003828589989232322013-09-18T11:38:01.862-04:002013-09-18T11:38:01.862-04:00This book is already on my TBR list of Christmas r...This book is already on my TBR list of Christmas reading. <br /><br />As for recurring themes, I love the "Mother and Daughter" themes. I guess becomes all my life had that" love - hate relationship" with my mom. <br />All that teenage angst and striving for me independence being the only daughter in a family with 4 brothers. <br />Kathleen Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10750925187927330976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192776379752748640.post-82816570811822814002013-09-17T22:53:56.800-04:002013-09-17T22:53:56.800-04:00I'm a fan of redeemed heroes too, Hope.

Mary Jo Putney's Reginald Davenport in <i>The Rake</i> is another favorite. He's introduced in <i>The Diabolical Baron</i>.Jangahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15128188159653860806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192776379752748640.post-84280507844700744142013-09-17T10:48:58.631-04:002013-09-17T10:48:58.631-04:00Ah, another one to get...sounds wonderful....
As ...Ah, another one to get...sounds wonderful....<br /><br />As far as themes....tough one because I agree with you, there is always redemption...which is why some of my favorite romances are in a series with the H having been a "cad" for a few books....and all of a sudden we see him rise above...<br />Devil In Winter, Sebastian will always be that H that stunned me into adoring him.<br /><br />Hmmm and I have to also say rising above what you have been dealt in life....I like that theme also.<br /><br />Well, truth be told, I probably like any romance that is well written, believable and the characters work.<br /><br />Love this 12 days holiday fun Janga! Just love it<br />Let's play some of my fave Christmas Music!<br /><br />Hopehopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630966299992245426noreply@blogger.com
