About Me
- Vince
- Born in Long Island, New York, have lived in New Jersey, Connecticut, Arizona, California, and Oklahoma. Lived three years in Italy and Germany while in USAF.(Air Police: K-9 section). Now live in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Married after whirlwind romance to same wife for over 30 years. Currently run my own real estate school in Oklahoma. Like to study foreign languages for a few months just to see how they work. Also like Latin and giving speeches. I’ve taught Philosophy, Advertising, Property Management, and many real estate subjects at the University, Community College, and Technical School level. Now writing non-fiction book on the Romance genre. I was trained to be a philosopher and history teacher but have worked mostly in advertising, marketing, and real estate.
You're absolutely correct. Book covers tell us its a romance, but what is tough is telling if it is a sweet romance. That is why "bonnet books" are so popular. Not because people are so enamored with Amish but they know they are going to get a "clean" romance.

ReplyDeleteHi Sandra:
That's true for now but I don't think it will be too long before the 'hot bonnet' books blaze a new trail. However, in many cases you can tell by the cover if it is a 'hot' story and if it is a sweet romance. If it is hot the author wants you to know that so the cover will be suggestive. Mona's book above looks hot and Ruth's looks sweet. Getting it right is all part of the marketing.
