Overview

This updated version of the popular reference for romance readers features information on over 10,000 new titles representing the work of thousands of new and continuously publishing authors. Also included is information about previously published works dating back as far as the 1950s. All types of romantic fiction are covered here—historical, gothic, regency, contemporary, futuristic, and time-travel—and everything in-between. Under each author name, titles are listed chronologically. Publication date, publishing house, and publisher's book number are also included, where available. The Author Pseudonym Index is especially helpful for finding all the works of a particular author. Highly personal profiles and 60 photographs of authors give insight into the lives and inspirations of the people behind the stories. For browsing through information on the thousands of available titles, checking a pseudonym, finding a new title in a series, or looking for additional books by a favorite author, this guide is indispensable for readers' advisory—every public library, as well as every enthusiastic romance reader should have it.
