Romance novels tend to get the wrong end of the stick in the book world and suffer lewd jokes and judgments from both non-readers and readers, when most likely they’ve never picked up a romance novel to give them a try!

With all the taboo and misjudgment of romance’s, they aren’t always subject to storyline of protagonists and hero’s falling in love with women opposing their usual type, instead, romance novels are written rather cleverly and have continued to be written this way over generations.

The romance community and authors alike have additionally played an important part in encouraging self-wellness through novels. Romance novels particularly encourage themes of support, love and understanding through the roles of their characters and continue to promote themes of:

• Hope
• Escape
• Support
• Friendship
• Empowerment
• Representation
• Knowledge
• Inspiration
