Hate to Love Recommendations | Historical Romances

[@Lilo8519]

"Then came you" from Lisa Kleypas is my fave now :) Loooved it! The heroes had such good banters! i also loved the Viscount and the vixen but Waking up with the duke and Once more my darling rogue are perfection "hate to love" romances from Lorraine Heath.

Loved the Viscount and the Vixen! It was my favorite of the Hellions.

Hate to Love is one of my FAVE tropes, so definitely adding the ones I haven't read onto my TBR!

The angry sex part played out loud by accidnt and let me tell you I got many weird looks from my younger siblings. It was awkward to say the least 😂 . I like how in depth you go into each book. These videos are my favorite I always fill up my list of “must buy” from your videos.

[@daniellecasso8832]

This video was awesome I love watching your videos and how you talk about books! 🙂 I added some of these to my TBR thank you!

I enjoyed A Rose in Winter by Kathleen Woodiwiss

[@cathystaerkel1833]

Love your videos! Grace Burrowes and Loretta Chase are two of my favorites as well. So enjoyed your recs re steam level. Unfortunately, my book orders have multiplied once again. ♥️

Ugh, I can't wait for the second Bridgerton series for Anthony and Kate 😭😍 Aaaaand I'm immediately going to Amazon to preorder Outrageous 😂

I really enjoyed this. I'm going to check out the Lorraine Heath trilogy, I'm also a fan of hers. I'd like to recommend a Sophie Jordan I finished yesterday - all the ways to ruin a rogue. It's book two of two, I think you could do it as a standalone but it's better if you read book one. Serious hate to love between the hero and heroine. Book one, a good debutants guide to ruin is also a hate to love but nowhere near as hot as book two!

You always have the best synopsis ❤️

Love an Eloisa James hate to love. She's a 👑 to me and right up there with Lisa Kleypas as all time favorite historical romance author. Gonna have to add Viscount and the Vixen to my TBR. I think I missed it in the trilogy because I've read the other two.

[@diledile89]

I am approaching the genre so thank you very much for this raccomandations

[@Liz0657]

I loved Outrageous, I read the complete series and loved it.

[@tarinirawat7438]

Love a good hate to love romance. I seriously need to up my reading with historical romances. Who needs sleep right? I wish the books would get converted to our dreams.

i have watched several recommendation videos and have officially decided i now hate historical romance. i didn't used to. i used to love it. i used to read it all the time. But now everything is the same recycled CRAP. oooh the ball! oooh the duke! oooh the spinster!! i swear these authors all write the words duke, the ball, the spinster, ruination, reluctance, marriage of convenience, hate to love, put them into a jar, shake them up and pull out four and that's what the story will be about. every. single. time. Dukes weren't even that plentiful!!! and they were usually OLD or fugly.... or hateful. Yeah occasionally there are spies, soldiers, or a marquis...but they still eventually turn into one of the above mentioned tropes. thankfully i have read books that deviated from those norms but they hard to find. one of them is impossible and involves a doctor and his daughter who search the battlefield for survivors and try to save them after the shooting has stopped. the daughter finds one man who is delirious. he takes a swing at her and misses. She calls him a cabbage head then helps her father take him back to the hospital tent where they patch him up and send him home. All the man can remember is this angel of mercy who not only saved him but called him a cabbage head. but he doesn't know who she is or where she's gone until some fortuitous event places them back together. He immediately latches onto her, is determined to marry her because.... yeah that's what you do, i guess.... and she's all for it. But his rich bitchy aunt is against the whole thing because people of his station did NOT marry doctor's daughters. and shenanigans ensue from there. I read it once, YEARS ago and haven't seen it since. It's a clean romance, no fornicating that I can remember but it was ok because you really just enjoyed the romp. the main characters were likeable and they liked each other. the trop was "find out what your characters want....and don't give it to them." Another couple of good reads are Undone (by Virginia Henley) the Nightingale Legacy and Lord of Ice. They all involved dastardly villains trying to capture the heroine for her fortune or just the thrill of the hunt, but they either rescue themselves or are rescued by reluctant heroes. they aren't perfect stories and have faults of their own but they are different. i like different and wish historical authors would try a little harder to be creative. One of the big names actually stole the script from a hollywood romcom???? That is not only shameful but DESPERATE. Undone beats the brakes off the entire Bridgerton series btw. Hands down, don't even argue. I will fight you over this. There is no excuse to be fenced in just because it's historical fiction. The world was new. Science was new. There were entire continents to explore, new cultures to meet. Society's dumb rules no long applied once you left society. And then there's the underbelly of society. The Upstairs Downstairs society, there were so many new things that we take for granted now..... Dogs for example..... the hole AKC/UKC society is fully of fascinating drama with all kinds of crazy characters! Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann has a pretty interesting tale. Then you have the vast herds of mustangs in North America and the territorial drama between Spain, France, Britain and the Native Americans.... If you actually study history you would know the sky is literally the limit. So if you're an author, PLEASE get out of the drawing rooms and the ballrooms and the gambling dens.... just get out. Do something different. Have your heroine disguise herself as a fat old schoolmarm who goes to the new world, along the way she could meet any number of fascinating characters and once she's on foreign soil she is swept up in some crazy adventure involving a tribe of indians, two mules, a one eyed mountain man and a gang of french mercenaries. just go crazy with it!!
