Yes! So rare! 😃
I have decided that whichever stepback lands on my favorite number, 13, I will purchase and read!

He's got some major back muscles going on and he gives me a vampire vibe. Too bad you can't interview Pino and ask about all these gorgeous stepbacks.

Linda. LINDA!!! You gave me a GREAT idea! True, I can't interview him, BUT thanks to your comment, I found a great video about Pino on KZread, and I want to celebrate getting to #50 by sharing it. Mind if I attribute the idea to you? 🥳

@@mamaneedstoreadromance Oh that's great. Sure you can mention me if you like. Can't wait to see the video.
I own this one, too! In both mass market paperback and in hardcover. The hardcover has a larger version of the image than the paperback, and includes a guy falling off a tower to the left of the paperback's cutoff. I wish they'd found some way to include that in the mass market paperback, especially given the title. Certainly seems Dangerous to me!

A GUY FALLING OFF OF A TOWER?!? Oh my gosh that's incredible!! That certainly is...DANGEROUS. 😂 I wish they could always find a way to include the entire painting in the stepbacks. Perhaps if it had been a two pager. Oh well! 🤷🏻

This was my first historical romance (and still one of my favorites!) many, many, many moons ago and first intro to Amanda Quick. Never looked back since then! 😉

More Amanda Quick! Remember the one that had the bird-of-paradise on it? That was my favorite, because I've loved that flower ever since a group of them sang to me when I was a child (at the Tiki Room ride at Disneyland). Although I seem to recall that, as an actual reading experience, my favorite was Reckless. Which also had a great cover and stepback, of course.

I am so happy to see Dangerous on this list!! Truly the best of the Amanda Quick romances- I haven't seen the stepback in so long! (My copy is sadly without one.) Just seeing it makes me want to read this one again! (Okay, I was going to re-read it pretty soon anyway, but still...) Thanks for featuring it- this made my day!!

I'm so happy to hear that! It sounds like the general consensus is that this is an EXCELLENT book! I've just got to read this one (hopefully) soon! 😃
🐈⬛🔎🔎 Sounds intriguing! I need to look out for this one. If she wears glasses, is she a bluestocking? I am here for the bluestockings getting their well developed muscly men 👏😁❤

Oh my gosh, I love your comment so much!! She does seem to have bluestocking tendencies! I haven't had the pleasure of reading this one myself yet, so I can only guess, but people LOVE this book, so I'm extra excited! 😃
Oh Bea. I really want to try and get a fun picture to send for the top 10 video. The end of the month I'm going to a friend's wedding, so hopefully I can get a nice picture! Love this stepback and the romantic scene in bed (and the cat just sitting calmly on the man's knee) 🧐🐈⬛

Oh Megan, I hope you can get a picture! That would be so fun!! AND/OR, we could include one of the pics of you and your sweetie when you got engaged. Nothing says romance like an engagment pic! But I totally get it if you'd rather keep that private. No pressure! 🥳

Does her brother survive her attempt to save him? That cat has a prominent placement in the picture so is that significant to the story? Maybe early fall because there are flowers by the carriage. 🔍🔎🐈

I didn’t think the story had fantasy elements but is he a warlock with a black cat familiar? Or inherited the cat from a relative and is paid to keep it happy. So many possibilities?? LOL
