Historical Romance
March 21st, 2009 by admin
Historical romance has had a bad rap recently. It has been given the derogatory term ‘bodice ripper’ and tends to be dismissed as a light, fluffy read.
While it is true that some books are short on accurate historical detail and long on melodrama, here at HerStory Books, we try to stay true to the period of time in which our characters are set. After all, if you want to write a modern romance, go right ahead. Just don’t try to put modern characters, with all their sensibilities, into an historical setting, and expect the reader to be satisfied.
So, what makes a great historical romance?
First of all, the romance. The hero and heroine falling in love.

THE HART AND THE HARP
Sorcha MacMurrough
Ireland, 1146
Shive MacDermot and Tiernan O’Hara agree to wed to end a five-year feud
between their clans which had been provoked by the murder of her brother.
Though an unlikely alliance at first, Shive begins to fall in love
with her new husband. She soon realises her brother’s killer was never
Tiernan, but a member of her own clan. How can she win Tiernan’s love and
prove to him she is not the enemy?
Shive undertakes an epic struggle to save her lands and Tiernan’s from
the ambitious Muireadach O’Rourke, determined to kill anyone who opposes
his bid to become high-king of all Ireland.
Will she prove worthy of Tiernan? Or will he believe that she has betrayed
him, and become her enemy himself?
