Happy #coverlustfriday! As always I'm all about #oldskoolromancebooks. Today I'm featuring a 1981 #romancenovel written by Fern Michaels and published by Ballantine books. Deceptively titled Captive Innocence, this #book had nothing to do with her best-selling Captive Trilogy about a female pirate and her foster daughter. That series was coo-cool crazy and deserves its own post. This book is a #romance about a New England Widow name Royall Banner who inherits property in Brazil. There she meets a mysterious stranger with whom she has a one night stand. When she gets to her new home she finds her neighbor is Sebastian Rivera, the very man she slept with. Drama ensues as neighbors fight over land. The back blurb states Captive Innocence is "the rapturous story of Royall Banner and the only man who could make her feel like a woman." 😆 I chose this #cover because I have no idea who the #coverartist is. If anybody has any idea or any clues I'd love to know. Plus it's pretty, with the pink white and rose colored flowers interspersed with the lush green foliage. Any fans of #FernMichaels' #historicalromance or #bodiceripper novels? She later went on to write #categoryromance before becoming a blockbuster Phenom in mainstream Romance and fiction. #bookish #bookishromance #romancetagram #bookstagram #bookcovers #romancenovel #RomanceBooks #romancebookstagram #sweetsavageflame #covers https://www.instagram.com/p/CZQ7OERLZIm/?utm_medium=tumblr
