Women Who Dare Series | Historical Romance | Author Beverly Jenkins Women Who Dare is an African American historical romance book series set in the aftermath of the Civil War and written by author Beverly Jenkins.

Just finished reading To Catch A Raven, the third & final novel in the 'Women Who Dare' series by Beverly Jenkins (@authormsbev.bsky.social). I enjoyed the novel and series. Highly recommended! ✍🏾📚💕

#3 on my Romance Countdown is Beatrice Harraden's 1893 blockbuster Ships that Pass in the Night. It is the heartbreaking, beautiful story of two lost people who find each other in a sanatorium and in so doing, rediscover their humanity. Have a handkerchief ready.

#8 on my Romance Countdown to celebrate the UK Launch of A History of Romance Novels is Elizabeth von Arnim's 1898 Elizabeth and Her German Garden - a wickedly funny account of marriage in Prussia that sparked the Garden Romance craze of the late 19th century.
