In research for my own books, I have learned how present the British were in the Caribbean for centuries.

From Katherine's list on historical romances for intersectional feminists.
This is by far my favorite historical romance. Don’t be fooled by the Victorian-era cover with a beautiful Dominican woman—this book is steamy. If you’ve ever read Herrera, you know she delivers oh-so-satisfying sex scenes, with an incredibly witty-narrative voice.

Enter hot Scottish Earl perfection James Evanston.
