Romance is not my genre, but over the years I have had occasion to read a number of Beverly Jenkins's books, and I think she is one of the worst writers ever. Her historical settings are intriguing, but I find her writing atrocious. I am baffled by her apparent popularity, and can only think it's because not many romance authors write about non-white characters; she's the only one who does that I've read, given my limited exposure to the genre. I hope others are better writers.
