13 Ruth Ryan Langan Contemporary Romance Classics:
Dear Reader,
These contemporary romance novels, originally published in the 1980s, reflect a time before the use of cell phones, when the Internet was unknown, and the term "social media" was unheard of. As you read them, I hope you'll enjoy reflecting on a bygone era.
Happy Reading!
Ruth
