The Marcus Didius Falco books by Lindsey Davis are wonderful historical mystery novels. Pamela Morisi has written several romantic historical novels that will leave you with a feeling of intense satisfaction.
Just butting in to note that 1632 is available for free at the Baen site. I've downloaded it, but not read it yet so I don't know how good it is - but it sure does get mentioned alot.
