About meI work for the library on the bookmobile. I'm pretty sure I must have ADD because I have too many interests that I get wrapped up in; reading, crafting, beading, stamping, bee-keeping, anything to keep me away from cleaning. I love the escape that reading offers without the mess. Right now, I am very much enjoying reading romantic historical fiction. I especially like books set in Scotland. I read a few Hannah Howell books that were really good but I had to stop reading them because the sex scenes were way too descriptive. I wish I could find an author whose character development and scenes are as real but without the heavy sex. Years ago I read a lot of vampire books that I really enjoyed but stopped reading them for the same reason. This is why I LOVE the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. The romance is so fun but it's not too sensual. If any of you out there have suggestions for great romantic historical fiction authors who know how to write a good book without the detailed sex I'd love to hear about them. Happy reading.

About my libraryMy library here is basicly just the books that I've read recently or that have had a great impact on me.

"I wish I could find an author whose character development and scenes are as real but without the heavy sex."

The books I have read that are excellent in character development and real scenes are written by Louis L'Amour. He is western genre. Any romance in the books is clean. I have read them all. Jenai
Thank you for the add! I read a lot of Highlander romances too - you should check out the Outlander books by Diana Gabaldon if you haven't already - they are excellent and very well written! My library is full of Scottish romances and I've rated them too. I've also recently started reviewing a lot of the books on my Book Blog (see my profile) so you can see what you might like!
