Contemporary Romance Classics & Great Love Stories

book jacket

The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough

Set in Australia, this is an unforgettable story of the forbidden love of Meggie and Father Ralph, her priest.

book jacket

Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier

Inman goes AWOL and walks hundreds of miles during the Civil War to re-unite with his one true love.  What a man!  What a woman!

book jacket

A Town Like Alice by Nevil Shute

An unlikely couple find romance in a Japanese POW setting during WWII.  The videos are wonderful, too.

book jacket

Shining Through by Susan Isaacs

Another great WWII romance.  It includes lots of intrigue and a surprising romance.

book jacket

Outlander by Diana Gabaldon

Get past that fear of “time travel” and embrace this well-written red-hot love story between a modern-day woman and the irresistibly sexy Scot, Jamie.  This is the 1st of a series, if you like it!

book jacket

Time and Again by Jack Finney

Time travel again, but worth it for the trip back to the 19th century.  Very atmospheric and believable.

book jacket

Shanna by Kathleen Woodiwiss

Beautiful and sensuous historical romance.  The love story between Shanna and Roark sizzles!

book jacket

Whitney, My Love by Judith McNaugh

A contemporary classic.  A lovely historical romance that will stand the test of time.

book jacket

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

This is a given, but please don’t let its “classic” status keep you from meeting Mr. Darcy.
