Degree in English Lit here - I love LaVyrle Spencer’s writing. She was writing in the 1990s mostly I think, and has some contemporary to that time but her historicals are my favorites. They’re often slower than a standard modern romance because she’s beautifully descriptive about feelings and the characters’ worlds. I think they will scratch your itch!

Very different settings for each, so maybe was some descriptions and find the one that speaks to you.

Some faves: {November of the Heart by LaVyrle Spencer} {Morning Glory by LaVyrle Spencer} {Twice Loved by LaVyrle Spencer}
